False Memory-Actual Dream Interleaving (Early Hypothesis)

the Stuff Dreams are made of...

My apologies if it’s too crazy or about poor writing, I just woke up and in a moment of euphoria, had to write it all down.

I just had a very long dream that was divided among 4 different scenarios.
I mean, I can’t call them 4 different dreams, they coexisted at the same time and were “interleaved”. one of them was LD for sure, but the others didn’t attain maximum lucidity. I believe they were created in false memories. I don’t know when they were created or the exact order to type them, What I know is that each transition could lead me to lose a bit of lucidity or retain it from the earlier.

That’s the only hypothesis I’ve thought that could explain this:
I call it “False Memory-Actual Dream Interleaving”.

In this Hypothesis, Dreams can be interleaved to false memories. These false memories can be generated at that given time, giving the impression of a seamless very long dream, however you don’t actually dream the FM parts, but it seems like you actually do.
Like I said earlier, I just had a very long dream here and it had 4 different scenarios, with different levels of lucidity, I could not change some of them at all, while others were vivid.
That’s the interesting part, I mean, I had LD, and then got into a ND, when I got back to LD “much later” it was still a LD.

Maybe incubating a dream may cause it to turn into a false memory that can be recalled during dream state, so you won’t actually dream it, but it can be continued in a actual dream that begins later.

Maybe when people use V-WILD and think their dreams are not as vivid as DILDs that’s because they incubated the FM there.

If this hypothesis is correct, then the following questions would need answers (maybe more):

  • When can FMs be generated?
  • Is it possible to “edit” them at the same time as they “happen” inside a dream?;
  • How long it takes to get into a FM and get out of it?
  • Can we take more advantages of it than just dream incubation and “false” very long dreams?
  • Can we get out of the FM at will?
  • Can we get into a FM at will?
  • Am I crazy? :rc:

Also, thanks to Kitty and Shatter for being the first to pay attention on it.

I’m interested to hear more explanation of what you’re trying to say. If you’re saying that FMs made your complicated dream possible, then what I’d like to know is, what parts were FMs, and (if your LD was the real dream) did the FMs form during your lucidity? What would this imply about the relationship between FMs and lucidity?

Your idea for making use of FMs is also interesting. I see potential applications in dream control. (Like, “I can throw fireballs because I learned how to,” or, “The magic wand is behind this door because I put it there.”)

That’s the point, I am not able to tell what’s a FM while in there, or when they were generated.

I will still keep on experimenting, I hope we can find how to formalize a technique for dream time extension and a False Memory Induced Lucid dream.
