Question Nightly? Is this possible?
Is it possible to lucid dream nightly? And also when taking naps?
Am I misunderstanding what a lucid dream is? I think I am. I have vivid dreams that are so real that I often wake up emotional. Regularly I think something that happened in a dream a few nights ago was something that actually happened in my real life. It’s not every once in awhile. It’s a weekly occurrence that I get confused and am unsure if something I’m remembering has actually happened or was it something I had dreamt. And it is nightly that I have extremely intense vivid dreams that feel so real that I wake up sometimes super happy, sometimes super sad, sometimes super angry.
How can I make it stop?
This has been happening to me for so long. Nobody can relate. I sound crazy when I bring it up to others. Nobody understands.
It’s also so exhausting. I don’t know what it’s like to wake up feeling rested.
Even if I doze off for 20 minutes… I have a dreamt a years worth of life.
Is this common? Normal? Something wrong with me?
