Anyone did it? It was popular when that one movie came out. I actually did it a lot without training or whatever peeps do. Whenever I have a bad dream I stop being scared and be awesome instead. Going out of my shelter and hunt them wolves! Yeah!
It's pretty awesome, locks up for another part of life.

yep I got throught this all the time http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucid_dream#Sleep_paralysis
Sometimes I kinda know when I'm dreaming so I can change the dream but then that just ends up waking me up so it ruins it, but I always have sleep paralysis and its really scary, lately its been happening as just before I wake up, I'm still dreaming and sometimes I realize I'm dreaming and remember how I had sleep paralysis, and that thought of it, ends up actually giving me the sleep paralysis so I have to struggle to wake up

Lucid dreaming requires sleep paralysis..., you have to detach your dream "body" from your paralyzed one while in sleep paralysis. Controlling your dreams is not like lucid dreaming, since for lucid dreaming you have to do the astral projection first in order to experience an outer body experience.. At least thats what I think it is.

Outer body experience? I just decide what I dream and I use that against nightmares. Isn't sleep paralysis waking up from sleep but not being able to move?
What's an astral projection?

Astral projection (or astral travel) is an interpretation of any form of out-of-body experience (OBE) that assumes the existence of an "astral body" separate from the physical body and capable of travelling outside it.

i actually found out how to get out of sleep paralysis. I used to get it a lot too, but you just gotta not scream or try to move or w/e and you just make a noise in your normal talking voice and it gets you out (or at least that works for me)

I have something similar to sleep paralysis... I don't know what it is though. It's always right before I'm completely asleep, in the very early stages of a dream forming. At this point, I'm aware that I'm still somewhat awake, but I'm in la-la-land, just floating around in my thoughts waiting to fall all the way out.
Then I see a white flash, and the whole room is moving and shit, and I feel like I'm in the room I was dreaming about. I have no idea where I am or what's happening, i'm just awake and looking around my room trying to recognize something, to bring me out of it. The second I recognize something in real life that lets me know I'm in my bed, usually my alarm clock or the streetlight outside my window, I come out of it and I'm fully aware of what's going on again. Really weird. All of this is very foggy as well, it happens for 5 or maybe 10 seconds.
Life's a bitch and I'm just along for the ride.

you don't wake up into sleep paralysis you just get right in. I can trigger sleep paralysis whenever I want because I have done it for years, but that is just the first step to lucid dreaming because then you jump out of your body. Lucid dreaming is not controlling you dreams.

that sounds like an out of body experience http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucid_dream#Out-of-body_experience
When I have sleep paralysis I don't know that I'm dreaming, I think I'm awake and I think the room around me is real

wutchu talkin bout bro. Consciously manipulating what happens in your dream... That's lucid dreaming, no?  Like, I know I'm asleep, but I remain in the sleeping reality.
