can any of you guys control your dreams? I can make things appear and disappear and I can go wherever I want its like Im my own god in my dreams. Can anybody else do this or something similar?
Just sometimes and slightly...Ussually when I realise its just a dream, but my dreams tend to be very true...
But my brother can everytime.
Only sometimes if I'm lucky. Although sometimes I wish I could control my actions in my dreams.
Yes... whenever im in my dreams i have spidermans powers but only when i experiment or i get startled... weird isnt it?
Yep I use to be able to do it all the time when I was little.........now I can once in a while......I guess cuz I don't feel the need to live in my dreams anymore. xo
nope i think that dreams arnt meant to be controled we control way to much and why control dreams??? dreams let us do anything that we want and go anywhere we want,
yeah well sometimes. when i want to keep dreaming something i just picture it in my head when i got to sleep and pops... there it is.. so we could say that i can.. but i hate when sopmeone is chasing me . i can't run fast or scream...
it is not fun.. but other than that...
i have pretty much control of my dreams.... most of the times..
i once got a vision of the future.
one night i was dreaming and my vision was of my dream, i knew it was going to be a nightmare because of my real life vision. a voice spoke over all the others
"This dream will turn into a nightmare, wake up"
it was my own voice... i awoke
kinda creepy :S
controling dreams is posible but there is exceptions. you have to have self control of your self and you have to have some intelligents towards life itself.
I can control my own dreams. Quite easy really. What's sort of a bitch is controling someone elses dreams. Done it before but they can easily take them back. It's sort of sucks at times..
I can't control mine and I didn't know you could control your dreams.
I cant control my dreams. I think it would be interesting to be able to control them, at the same time, I like how its my own personal story and Im kinda finding it out as I go along.
(sidebar: I heard of this goofy diet once that taught you how to control your dreams, then you would spend the dream eatting. tricking your subconscious into thinkin you've eatting alot and making you less hungry. wtf?! anyways.)

Dreams can be controlled. It's almost like the Matrix's. You most know it in order to control it. There are some dreams that can not be controlled. I believe these dreams are what happened or is going to happen in your life. I could be wrong, I think I saw it on Discovery !!
i just perfur not to control them it makes things much more interresting for me i think but if i really had to i could control them.
I never knew or tired to control them, just always left them go as they came considering most of the time I never remember any.
theres ways that will help u remember them but i dont know them right now i would have to look at my psych notes from high school. but try looking it up on yahoo or something if u want to try and remember
I believe that dreams are merely the subconscious and the soul trying to either solve a problem or they can also predict and warn. I think sometimes we just misinterpret them. If one can control them, then one is able to control the beast within. If one allows to just let them go.. then so too the beast..being one is the goal.. of course if one rejects the idea, then the question remains how does one control ones dreams?even so..how does one control anothers?
Dreams can be way to go to the other realms as well. There.. one can be their own God. IF that is ones will.
wow thats pretty interresting nightvision. kinda makes me think alittle more about everything and what i believe
yeah it does make you think....i mean is it really posisble to like know wat yer gonna dream bout.......like the night before...lol
i dont think its really possible to know before hand im mean sure theres things that can contribute to it but to know everything before u dream about it just seems unrealistic.
I used to be able to. ^_^ It was really cool. But I can't as much anymore now........ I miss it.
i dream about what i a, thinking about before i fall asleep
I can't control my dreams at all.... I just enjoy the ride. I don't think that dreams are meant to be controlled either. It's your subconcience trying to tell you something. They can be confusing, there are many different ways to interpert dreams.
true that is what i said too Octavia. just leave them be and enjoy the ride yah know..
I could and I still think that I can and that I do, but I don't remember my dreams anymore...
I have been able to for awhile,when i was little i realised that even after freddy kruger that i could beat the monsters i could control what i dream.
well i mean stopping yer dreams and changing them is really up to you.....i think you could if it was nesisary but me i can't.....it is some thing that well.....only that a person who has complete control over there dreams and personality...
I can stop a bad dream or wake myself up, but other than that, I can't control my dreams.
Once in a while, i can, especially if its sexual(which is alot of fun!) but most of my dreams involve me running from something or flying or falling...thats it...never anything else...weird eh?
i can hardly ever controll my dreams the only time i can is when i'm about to wake up
i can't controll my dreams my mind just wonders in dreams I just float in my dreamworld
I used to be able to do it when I was about 13 or 14. After that age it slowly got worse and then I couldnt do it anymore. I think it only works when you are young as my boyfriend could do the same but only when he was young. Many people find that it leaves them when they get to a certain age. I have no clue why.
heheh im 14. newaayz i can if i think about something so mucha nd then purposely forget about it which can be very hard
i would love to control my bad dream to be able to wake up from them would be great but i cant. and i really hate being stuck in them i really need to read into the whole dream thing more. i think i will go to the libery friday
i cant control mine but if i could id be making love to aaron (netrang3r my bf who started the forum) every fuckin night!!!
K, my turn:
"Cherish your vision and your dreams as they are the children of your soul; the blueprints of your ultimate achievements."
-Napoleon Hill
Whether one can control their dreams or not, it's our subconscious that creates them. I choose to leave my dreams/nightmares alone jus for the simple fact that it helps me to know myself more in depth. They are something you somewhere in the little black box of your mind imagin. It really gives you a grip on your inner self if you think about it; so why would you want to mess with that?
yes when I realise I am dreaming,cause yes it's possible:)
well i have never been able to control my dreams but i wish i could well my bad dreams at least and maybe make the good ones better...lol but it would be wicked fun!!!! lol
Sometimes. I generally dream about the last thing I was thinking before I go sleep
if i control my dreams i cant go forward over the imagination and i will be bored of my dreams becouse i dream what i know all ready , if i don't control them ... sometimes i dream about something that i dont know and sometimes i am inspired from them
Most of the time i think of myself 'floating' in dreams, and thats pretty much what happens, i don't fly, i float.
the only time i can control my dreams is when i'm half way awake
Well I'm sure my subconscious controls my dreams. Other than that no. But that would be Freakin' Awesome if I could!!!!! I would always be asleep.
I've talk myself tricks in order to help control my dream...like falling asleep with my legs crossed, because it makes walking difficult in my dream so I fly instead, once I start flying I know I'm dreaming and it gets easier to control. I remember most dreams and write some down.
I can influence my dreams but have never been able to direct them. If anything if I attempt to redirect or steer my dreams, they usually turn into nightmares.

I can't control my dreams although it would be awesome if i could. I'd only do it once in a while though cause after a while i would get bored of being able to control my dreams. But if i'm having a bad dream i can wake myself up.
i wish i could control my dreams. usually in my dreams i 'm running (or flying) from something and for no reason, my ability to run (or fly) just goes away and i get caught.
I can do it at times but my psychology teacher is a master at controling hers. but i say why control it. it just ruins things at times. I like letting it flow :). although i always endup shot to peices and have to be nursed by a beautiful face. or finding that lover then loosing them that one i can never control.
ya i can once i realize its a dream and then the dream always ends like 2 minutes later
sometimes..but most of the time my dreams are awesome without me controlling them
Daily meditation can help you learn to control your dreams and delve into your subconscious
I've done it once so far....and it was fairly recently.....I didn't tell myself anythng before I went to sleep. No tricks or meditation involved before falling into my slumber.......but I ws having a dream about someone and I started waking up & I made myself go back to sleep and continue the dream. This occurred about 3-4 times before I eventually woke and finally couldn't go back to sleep, but by that time I was satisfied with end reslts of my dream. I basically was making myself finish it.........lol
yes i can .When i am in a dream and i know something bad is going to happen to me I can wake up. or change the course of whats happening in the dream
when im in a night mare i will try to hurt myself so i could wake up. the one time i woke up in pain and i started to throw up... real freaky.
i used to be able to control my dreams a lot when i was younger but now i can only do it once in a great while.but now i can see in my dream if i am to make a choise to do something i can see the out come of the unchosen direction. but i like being able to do this . it is fun .
no my mind hates me i am lucky to get a dream at night i do not know why you get all of the luck
Any time I have ever made conscience choice to control a dream, meaning I actually realise I am dreaming but don't wake up... it never is completely contolled by my conscience mind.... odd things still happen...and it never goes the direction I am trying for, in fact often it goes left.....when I intended right...
i have never been able to control my dreams. im usually running due to the fact im at war.
Sometimes I can, like if I'm having a nightmare everyonce in awhile I'm able to take control. If a bad dream gets too bad sometimes I have the ability to wake myself up by [this may sound weird] just shaking my head back in forth in my dream, although I must be doing it in real life too because when I wake up I'm still shaking my head. If I'm having a real awesome dream and I wake up, sometimes I have the ability to go back to sleep and go back to that dream. but that's a rare sweet occasion!
I can't control my dreams. But I can still hope that one day I will.
Of course one can control dreams.....
On them you are the one in charge not the other way around
lucid dreams i think they are called....i love it when i can control my dreams..sometimes i can. sometimes i can't. Watch the movie Waking Life, it's about dreams and shit like that. It's one of my fav movies.
-ecstasy
grrr, i don't get nightmares anymore. i miss them. I actually liked having them.
-ecstasy
i barely know whats happening when i dream let alone try to control it....
Now on controlling dreams there are a number of theories on how. I for one believe you can do it through a lucid dream state, but as far as actually doing it by will, no you can't because when you fall asleep you have no control over your subconcious mind
i've tried to control them but i wake up before i get control
no matter how bad they are i usually just let them go. whatever the issue is it will work itself out whether it's bad or good.
and i've had some very realistice terrifying dreams. *shiver*
i have not been able to although i have tryed to control my dreams it never works
I do not have dreams for myself. I am always dream walking into others dreams and it is weird the dreams that I have walked into. If any of you have looked around in your dreams and imagined or thought you noticed a pair of glowing red dragon eyes staring at you from afar... Yes that would be me and I apologize for that.
Sometimes...
funny thing when you realize that you're dreaming..
Only on nights when I am not so tired that I pass out as soon as I lay down
The thing about controling dreams is that it is just another facet of controling oneself....
some people think of it as a roller coaster ride (possibly scarey but otherwise harmless) others veiw it as a car (dangerous if you take your hands off the wheel) I personally think of it as a ham sandwich (delicious with mustard)......
I think the best choice is to pay attention and try to read what it is telling you..... cause any source of information should be taken into account even if it is unrelyable at best...
