    Completely false. They don’t show up in YOUR dreams. They definitely do in mine.

    You might just be bad at dreaming and don’t have vivid dreams. Don’t worry, you can train that

      Yeah I think this is it, some people don’t dream vividly and assume that’s how everyone’s dreams are.

        In the last few days, I have lucid dreams almost every night, but I also wake up midnight and then fall asleep pretty easily again so I basically use WBTB without noticing it. Still can’t control it and I really should start keeping a dream diary again. The dreams were incredibly vivid and I still remember actually walking and the feeling of touching things.

        Just today I had a lucid dream and looked at my phone to tell the time. Then I remembered this post and thought “ha, I can use my phone in dreams”

        I just always forget to stabilize my dream and wake up when closing my eyes.

          Awesome :) I used to lucid dream all the time as a kid, it was amazing. It seemed to stop as I got older though I’m sure if I practiced I could get it back.

          My dreams are always incredibly vivid and clear, and long though. Last night my dream was over a week or so in dream time 😆

      Phone breaking anxiety, anyone? I have broken several phones by dropping them in my dreams. I got my first in ~2002 and I haven’t broken a single phone since then. I guess I just jinxed it, but still… I definitely dream about phones about once a year.
