Is it normal to be aware you're dreaming...?

87% Normal

Is it normal to be completely aware that you're dreaming, but too lazy to do anything about it..

Some nights, I'm in a dream but I'm like AWARE that I'm dreaming yet I'm too lazy to do anything. Like for example, I'd be like in my dream "i wanna go read that book" but then in my head; again, in my dream, I would think to myself "i can't read books in dreams" hahah like wtf it's so weird like I KNOW i'm dreaming but i just let it happen hahah. or like, i'd just be like in my head "it's just a dream Jen (my name)". it's crazy weird omfg. and another thing! like if i'm having a bad dream, I know how to wake myself up instead of having to suffer til' the end of the dream lol. like, i just tell myself to wakeup and i wakeup. it's weird. lol, but yeah.

my question is, does this happen to any of you guys and if it does, do you think its normal?

    lol me too. I mean I can't remeber just switching to another dream but I can make myself wake up. Like I already know how the the dream is gonna end, I know it's gonna be really sad or boring, so I decide to wake up. But when I wake up I realize I've never had this dream before :| it's fucked up, I know.

Happens to me sometimes. Sometimes I can control the dream or certain parts, usually I just know I'm dreaming but have no control.

Happens to me all the time. The weirdest was when I quit smoking. I sometimes dreamed I lit up a cigarette, forgetting untill I was almost done with it that I had quit. One night I was soo disappointed in myself for having a cigarette. I cursed myself for smoking that cigarette and asked myself "where the hell did this cigarette come from anyway, if it hadn't been here I wouldn't have absentmindedly smoked it". Then I remembered "oh yeah, this is what's left of the pack I had in my pocket the other night when I dreamed I was smoking". Then I was OK!

Normal. I can lucid dream too. The amount of control I have in it varies though. Some dreams I have complete control of everything and in others I only have some control. Then there's the anime ones I have where I have ZERO control of what adventures they go on and I wind up seeing some fucked up stuff. XD

Lucky shot. That's a lucid dreaming. I ecperienced them often this year. Too bad you didn't take the oppprtunity to have fun with it. I mostly flew around in the dream. I floated like a balloon. It's fun!

  I do that to but I don't have full control, it's a little frustrating.

    It can be frustrating. That's why I enjoy myself as much as I can because I can lose control in any moments in the lucid dream. Sometimes, I don't really have full control of it too.
