Why do ya'll want to lucid dream so much?

I used to think it was cool, but there comes so much stress with it. I didn't learn to lucid dream, it came naturally following prolonged stress and drug use. Now I'm stuck with the ability. What people fail to recognise is that once you start lucid dreaming, it's difficult to stop. So you'll wake up feeling like you've not really "rested" properly, because you feel like you've been conscious most of the night. Your likelihood of experiencing sleep paralysis sky rockets. I never in my lfie experienced sleep paralysis before, but then I first started to lucid dream and I thought I was safe as it didn't happen for ages, and then it did. Luckily, I've heard stories in the past about sleep paralysis. The number 1 rule is DO NOT OPEN YOUR EYES. The second thing to remember is to not fight against it, and do not try to move, because you'll stress yourself out, heart rate will increase and that's when your fears will set in properly (this is why a lot of people report hearing and seeing things). I have yet to see or hear anything, nor am I met with a sense of dread because I keep my eyes closed and relax. Let your whole body untense (literally let go completely). You'll either fall back asleep and go into another dream within like a solid 30 seconds to a minute or if you haven't, you'll most likely be able to move as your brain would've caught up. Think of it like a lag.

In all honesty, lucid dreaming is fun at first but after a while it gets really boring. There's only so much you can actually do unless you start to be able to actually adapt your environment. I can control myself, my body, etc and recognise I'm in a dream and interact with the dream however I want but I can't just go "oh yes, I'm gonna teleport to an amusement park"

Another tip: avoid telling the people in your dream they aren't real. They usually act weird.
