Discussion Suicidal Dreams

[Nature_is_God]

I've heard people on here that had dreams of committing suicide. I had one last night but it wasn't me committing suicide; I found somebody, I know, hanging. This person isn't even a close friend or anything, just an acquaintance. I've been thinking about this dream all day. Any similar experiences?

Sorry going slightly off topic with my comment. There are people who learn how to lucid dream so that they are aware they are dreaming while in dreamland. It would be a really intense if you were stuck in a bad dream and can't get yourself to wake up. It would also be crazy to have lucid dream about committing suicide.

Yeah, I heard that you're able to do that but I never believed it was possible to have that much control over your dreams. Is there a methodology to doing this?

You start by doing a dream journal and documenting all your dreams as soon as you wake up. Then there's the reality check. For example, you can choose to count your fingers as your check. In real life you're going to count 5 fingers and your hands will look and feel normal. In the dream world, your hand may end up having more fingers etc. You perform these reality checks several times a day and eventually it was translate over into your dreams.
