Well, I don’t really know about that. I can’t remember having dream pain ever although I can remember getting injured a lot and being freaked out. I have been stabbed and just been like but it didn’t really hurt I was just freaked out. Also I fall… a lot in dreams but I always land at the bottom and I just feel a thud and I’m fine haha. I’m worried after reading this my subconscious might have learned that it can hurt me in a dream so I guess I might get my first dream pain soon enough
once i get good at lucid dreaming i want to do all sorts of painful things i cant experience IRL like, get sprayed with bullets, stand in front of a bullet train, jump off a skyscraper and hit the floor. be impaled(preferably in a massive fight with a monster of demon) crash a plane into the floor. and maybe have my head chopped off. all in the name of crazy fun
Ive had alot of dreams concering weapons while lucid. One of which I was captured by a military of some kind.I managned to get away and steal one of their handguns and do a wicked trick shot, shooting them both with one round (bullet). I use the MILD method, so ever since then I include a phrase in my routine. Along with the usual “I will rememebr my dreams” “I will remember I am dreaming” I now include “I will rememeber that I will always have a handgun in my pocket if I get in trouble” It has paid off multiple times, I’m not gonna lie. Especially when your in a tight spot and you need a weapon, you’ve always got the hand gun in your pocket. If you use MILD, its worth a shot (no pun intended)
oh…LOL, yeah… why do i want to do these things? …i think for me it has something to do with being able to face what i could never face (more than once) and challenge it, a bit like staring the devil in the eyes, and calling him my bitch
Years ago, feeling pain were the reasons I became lucid. I occasionally dreamed that I died (murdered, fell in lava, drowned etc), and it always really hurt (when close to waking, it still hurt but in an unpleasant tickling way. That were the points that I realized that I had to wake myself up before something like that would happen (or while it was happening). Closing my eyes in my dream caused me to wake up. That was my first solution. Later when I got more aware in dreams, I just ignored dangerous situations and avoided pain, or realized I could breath under water as well, and therefore could stay in my dream without pain.
I’ve been having these “pre-awakeing experiences” for 3 months actually. Each are the same in a way. I wake up (not for real) and everything around me is extremely vivid and real. I am lucid but I actually confound RL with the dream, or whatever it is.
So, my first one was pretty awkward: It was morning. I was lying in my bed. (In all these experiences, mornings are always sunny and nice - surprisingly, when I wake up, they are as sunny and nice as they were in the FA). I wanted to get out of my bed, but couldn’t. I was like handicapped. I tried to move my back and feet they were like out of rusty iron. I then rolled out of my bed and fell down. I wanted to get up from the ground and managed to but very difficult. It was very vivid and real. Now I wanted to go down and make myself something to eat, or to go to toilet I don’t remember where I was heading, but I wouldn’t actually stay there. When I moved my left leg, I felt a huge pain in my right knee. Such a bad pain, as if someone had hit me with a hammer on my knee. I then stopped walking. I wanted to try again. The same pain. I didn’t know where that came from, and was desperate. Then I woke up for real and my knee was alright.
I had a lot of pain feelings in my LD’s and ND’s. I got even chopped like a sushi by a pike-man once in a LD. That one didn’t hurt. But I agree on this one:
… dream pain isn’t fun at all - but at least it’s not real .
