Few questions

Quest for Lucidity
1

  1. Is it possible to die while having a lucid dream? I heard from people that if you fall and hit the ground in a dream, you die, is that true?

  2. Is it at all dangerous?

  3. How do I make myself wake up?

  4. Can other people wake me up, or am I stuck, how does it feel to wake up?

Wlcom to da forum Robby! I hope you will enjoy your time here .

  1. ehh… Well you can die in a dream. But not in reallity. You have been way 2 influenced by the Matrix movies :razz:. But that is total rubbish. it just is totaly and impossibel and anny one who says annything else is just another hippie on acid.

  2. No its not. Physsicaly its exactly the same thing as dreaming. And somne people claim that you can be addicted to it. That is really difficult becaus its difficult to achive lucidity regularly.

  3. Weel you will find out that the problem isn´t how 2 wake upp but how not to. You c, almost all beginners suffers from the NWUS(Noob waking upp syndrome) wich is that as soon as you become lucid yo will become wide awake by excitment. And when the NWUS dissapears you only have 2 focus on waiking up and you will.

  4. Other people can wake you upp verry easealiy since you are sleeping verry lightly. The only thing that cn happen is an SP wich is not that bad actually.

Whell hope that answers your question.

/me wishes you good luck

I’ve died in my dreams many of times. (including falling off a cliff) So far, i’m still here. :tongue:

I havent heard of any dangers accociated with lucid dreaming. Is a regular dream dangerous? no. Lucid dreams are basicly the same, with one differance, you can controll them.

Hmm, I’m not sure how you make yourself wake up. I try to stay in my LD’s as long as I can. When I do wake up, it’s usualy due to some enviromental factor, such as my alarm clock.

You wake up as you normaly do. Yes, someone can wake you, and typicly it’s easier to awake out of a LD than a normal dream. If I’m waking from a LD, I’m pretty excited because of the experiance I just had.

1. Is it possible to die while having a lucid dream? I heard from people that if you fall and hit the ground in a dream, you die, is that true?

No.

You can die while sleeping, and you can die inside the dream, but dying in a dream won’t ever trigger your physical death.

2. Is it at all dangerous?

Completely safe, not to worry about :content:

3. How do I make myself wake up?

For me, all it takes is closing my eyes, when I open them, I open the actual ones and wake up. You find your methods. Actually, dying inside the dream is a very common trick to wake up—as I told you, it’s not related to dying IRL.

4. Can other people wake me up, or am I stuck, how does it feel to wake up?

Same as dreaming.

I have found that no matter what happens in an LD it is basically the same as a normal dream, except you can control it, feel it, and occasionally hear it. I have died many, many, many, many times in an LD and i’m still here, as far as i know. Although i must admit, dying can be scary in an LD, one time i was blown up, sliced in half with a laser and crushed into a cube at the same time. But the worst LD death for me is falling. Sometimes an LD has funny consequences, sometimes going into IRL when you think something has happened, you wake up and react to it. That has happened to me a few times. It’s quite embarrassing sometimes, then you realise you are alone.
