today was very unproductive, but i did talk to my psychiatrist and she's upping my sleep meds which i think is gonna help.

i'm trying to get into lucid dreaming again. i've always been obsessed with the idea ever since i was a kid, and i've had lucid dreams here and there, but nothing too interesting for the most part. but i've always wanted to become more dedicated about it and actually learn to control it. hopefully this time i actually stick with it, since it is a big goal for me!

last night i had a dream about lucid dreaming. not a lucid dream though. i was either learning about it or talking about it to someone. i cant remember very well. what an ironic dream to have though. at the very least, i think it shows lucid dreaming is on my mind, which means i'm on the right track.

Lucid dreaming is interesting, i've had quite a few. Yesterday tho i had a lucid dream where some awful stuff happened, i don't know if the fact they are lucid makes it worse, but that is to say to be careful.

Also, lucid dreaming makes you more tired overall, so take care.

Besides that, good luck on achieving your goal <3

Thanks for the advice! Lucid dreaming can definitely have weird side effects. I've had lucid nightmares and they were pretty scary. They can also cause sleep paralysis which is not fun at all.

I'll definitely be careful! I don't intend to overuse lucid dreaming, I still want some regular sleep :)
