Also posted before by me; you can train to control some aspects of the dream. For me dreaming is like living different lives and movies ‘for real’. Sometimes I dream of things so realistic that months later I believe it really happened. Like someone told me about some software and where to get it; turns out this software does not exist, I dreamt it.
Control part, for instance, was dreaming about being on vacation on some island which contained zombies and, although first trying to defend and hide from them, I thought ‘it is just a dream, let’s see what happens if I get bitten’ and so I had one of them bite me. I turned into a zombie and noticed I could still think and thought maybe the others can too. They could, so now my friends and me were immortal and ready to cure the world of everything. So nightmare turned into an excellent thing.
But yes, I trained lucid dreaming since I was about 17-18, which is 30 years ago. I can just either let a dream play out or change things or wake up. I can also often make dreams continue after I wake up.

It feels like it’s bordering on delusion. I’ve met other people like this in RL. I know one woman who believes in things that only happened in her dreams. I don’t think that’s all that healthy. And of course, you’ve got an entire Reddit community devoted to these things.
- tluyben2 4y agoYeah, that sounds a bit over the top. I don’t take it that far and by far most dreams I have are extremely over the top or turn weird (either because of me changing things or just because they do) that they are definitely clearly dreams.
