I'm Not Dead (Yet)
Posted: Sun Nov 08, 2009 10:12 pm
I've had lucid dreams where I was in control before, and in only 2 of them I remember dying and in 1 coming close.
The coming close one, I was walking outside my house at night, and it felt so real, I didn't even know I was dreaming. Suddenly, a car came from nowhere and I was hit and went flying. I was saying to myself please don't die please don't die and right before I hit the ground I jolted up awake.
My biggest fear is to die by drowning. The two dreams were I feel I've actually died involved drowning. I live on the ocean, and there is a threat of the ocean killing you, which is probably where my fear comes from. The first dream involves me spending normal time with my friends at the beach. The tide is unusually high, and we're taking advantage of the fun. Suddenly, the tide is sucked in, very far, seemingly miles. Everyone thinks its cool, and runs to see the cool rocks, or to chase the water, but I knew it was trouble. I ran up hill trying to get away, and as the water came back, I knew I wouldn't make it. I was overtaken, and killed by the impact. Or at least, I thought I was dead? I woke up after.
The second water dream is of a very similar concept, however I was in a car and was trapped inside.
The reason I post this is because i am going to be doing the Lucid Dream dose now, and was studying it a bit before I did and theres been a lot of speculation about if you die in a dream you die in real life. Those dreams, nightmares, where I feel I've died end in shock and me waking up, does that mean my body saved me from actually dying? Does the mind psychologically think that it is dead causing you to die? If this was unsafe I believe I - Doser wouldn't offer this dose.
I'll report on what happens tomorrow, wish me luck!
