I actually dislike lucid dreaming; it's not as restful and it's often difficult to return to restful sleep once you're aware.

- prophesi 2y agoI enjoy it a lot, but this is definitely a downside people should be aware of if they'd like to lucid dream. It's very easy to wake up immediately once you realize you're lucid, or take forever to slip out of lucidity. My first thought when I saw this study is that now you can seek out lucidity on nights that you know you can afford disrupted sleep. I first sought out lucid dreaming because it helped with my sleep paralysis. It's still difficult to keep calm, but if I do manage it during an episode, it can become a much less unpleasant experience. I also haven't had nightmares in a long time as a side effect.
- marklubi 2y agoWhen it happens nearly every time you go to sleep, it gets rather tiresome (I’ll show myself out) Seriously though, I wish I could turn it off. Almost every single night. No thanks. Edit: When it gets to be that common, it really starts to mess with your memory of things.
