things to be afraid while lucid dreaming

anyone would if i was whsperin in their ear lol, but who know the only way to find out is to try :happy:

also to find out how the SG become them is to ask :happy:

might do that sometime

LD ing is perfectly safe. You are in the drivers seat and control how the dream progresses. I have been killed in many ND and even a lucid one, and I’m still here. As for getting stuck, all you have to do is look around the forum to find people complaining that they can’t stay in the LD long enough. The worst thing that can happen is you will wake up.

:cry: Yes!

I wouldn’t hold your breath for tyo long if I were you. You could pass out, and possibly die. Cool ehh?!

But with the hold-your-nose RC you breathe right through!

I’ve also been able to set up two breathing patterns, a slow one and an unnaturally fast one… yes I’ve had both of them at the same time, man that was wierd :alien:

Yes but you don’t hold your breath. You attempt to breath.

Also, the dream world is based on your beliefs. If you belief that you can breath while pinching your nose, it will happen.

I am not sure that you could really endanger yourself that way. I would gamble that you would just wake up. I have to look up that study before I can really comment though. I’ll look it up tonight and comment tomorrow.

Yes. Or at the worst, pass out, in which your body would take over control of your breathing. So really all you can do is loose an LD either way.

I’m sure Timeless once said he almost passed out from holding his breath in an LD.

Well I did not have the time to look up that study last night. I spent too much time on the forum.
I might test this at some point though. I have so many things I want to do in my LD’s I don’t know if I ll try tonight or not. But it is now on my list of things to experiment with so I’ll get around to it at some point.

I doubt you could hold your breath in a dream until you died. People instinctively start breathing again when they pass out, provided you even get that far (almost impossible without the use of some device to induce asphyxiation). Granted you’ve technically already passed-out if you’re sleeping, but I still wouldn’t think it possible to hold your breath until you stopped living. We’re designed a little better than that. :smile:

I totally agree. I find it very hard to believe that anything you do in a LD could effect your sleeping body to any great degree. If I believed that if you hold your breath in a LD it would also effect your real breathing. I think it would only do so in a slight way. Like my respiration might be slightly decreased if it would be effected at all…

yeah i dont know if you die in a dream… i really dont think that anyone ever dies… but…

yeah i have read like some books well don juan books… and in them there is allot about inorganic beings… and also powerfull beings in these other worlds which do take you into there realm…

scary stuff…

Yes you can. But, it does not effect your real body. Many people have reported that they have died in a dream with no ill effects on there dream body.

people can actually die from things in dreams I guess: The person dreams they are for example falling to the ground, and when they hit it, they have a heart attack. Many people have done this (and obviously lived) my thoughts are it wasn’t the fear of hitting the ground that caused the heart attack, but the heart failing that caused the person to dream of hitting the ground!
I really dont know if you can die in dreams, obviously, but these people would probably say so.
BTW this is VERY rare so please dont get all paranoid that youre gonna die if you go to sleep (homer simpson style!)

I wonder why I didn’t think of that… thanks!

Hi, again :wave:

I am curious where you heard this. Every thing I have read and my own experiences indicate the opposite. However, I always keep an open mind about things and I would be interested in hearing where you got that information from.

This is irrelevant to the thread, but I just wanted to say congratulations, milod, on reaching the 500 mark and Dream Deity status. I’ve been watching your post count for some time now and I can’t believe you jumped that far ahead of me in so little time. You’ve sure made a lot of posts in the last month. :wink:

Yeah back onnn topic. :wink:

Hi everybody, brand new to these forums and lucid dreaming. I’ve started a Dream Journal, and realized that I can remember at least one dream a night. I have a feeling (don’t know why) that this is going to come rather easy to me. But as I lie in bed almost falling asleep I get really nervous right before I am about to fall asleep, then I open my eyes. I almost end up wishing that I could fall asleep without thinking about lucid dreaming so it doesn’t happen??

I’m really interested in this and want it to happen but just wondering, did anybody else have this anxiety at first?? It’s something completely new and “out there” for me so I think that’s why, and I know once it happens I will be fine. It would just help me to hear it again I guess. :grin:

Thank you.

This is such a great forum and I got to know a few people on it and have great conversations with people.

Unfortunately it is also very addicting. Once I got going I got sucked into it. ( Like Computer crack). I can’t go a day without my daily fix now.
It was also winter here so it was very cold and snowy out. Not much fun to be out side so, I did not have much to do but, be on the computer and off course LD4LL.

Anyway, spring is starting to come and I’ll be able to get out more but, I still won’t be able to give up LD4ALL.

technically it wasn’t off topic, cos it is something to be afraid of!
Get lucid and start thinking that and I’d be scared
lol, anyway…
