I'm not sure that's exactly it, but maybe it is and I don't realize it.Theoryofrelativity said:http://www.web-us.com/lucid/luciddreamingFAQ.htm#In what stage of sleep does Lucid Dreaming occur
This will explain what happens while conscious even though it is concerned with inducing the lucid state while asleep.
"2.4. How does the Wake-Initiated Lucid Dream (WILD) technique work?
It works by remaining conscious until you start dreaming. The Lucidity Institute also first presented this technique, but it is not easy if you don't have a clue what to do. But it is quite easy and effective if you do it right. Again, you need to sleep 5-6 hours before trying this. This is because you don't dream much the first 5 hours, it is mostly non-REM sleep. You enter REM a lot faster after 5-6 hours with sleep, and you don't go down to stage 3 and 4 as you do when you first go to bed. The problem is remaining conscious until your dream start.Many strange things may happen when you remain conscious until the REM-period starts. The first thing you see may be Hypnagogic Imagery. It is a pattern, like the one you see when you press your fingers against your closed eyelids. Remember that this is hypnotic, and getting too involved with them will induce unconsciousness. Just let it flow, don't get too involved and don't suppress them either. The next thing you may experience is Hypnagogic Sounds. It may be as real as the sounds you hear in waking reality, but they are nothing to be afraid of. It is a good indicator that the REM-period is right around the corner. Just don't let these sounds scare you. If you start to experience Abstract Thoughts, the logical part of your brain is falling asleep and you are not far from losing consciousness. You might be lying in bed thinking about a friend and the hypnagogic imagery starts and you see your friend's face. You have also worked a stressful day so you start to remember stocking the shelves at work. Soon you are thinking that you are putting cans of food on the shelves with pictures of your friend on them. All this might seems perfectly normal. But it's not logical. What you need to do is try thinking logical, do some math or start over again. Tactile Sensations can feel like you are paralyzed and high-voltage painless electricity is jolting through your body. You may experience these vibrations and find yourself leaving your body or having a Lucid Dream. But remember that all this is nothing to fear, it happens every night, whether you are consciously aware of it or not. Now that you know what you might experience when trying to consciously enter the REM-period there is another problem we need to conquer. And that is losing consciousness, a very common problem that is rather easy to overcome."
I often feel like I'm entering this state while awake, usually when tired, I sort of do begin to dream while awake.

If we feel that you answered a question incompletely or inaccurately, could we throw down our two cents?

look it up in wikipedia, I did have link but it has VERY graphic pics and so I deleted as I don't want a banning, but it's in the dictionary, and yes I do know where mine is.

pasquala said:Hi ToR,
I have a serious problem...
Without giving out TMI, I work for a non-prof gov funded org. I have suspicions that my boss is misapropriating funds. Boss (I use the term boss as not to anounce gender) Also bends the rules to fit boss's needs. Boss does not follow the guidelines as to who the org is supposed to benefit. Rather boss adjusts to rules to benefit only the "desirable people" who do not need the program, but boss likes to rub elbows with. Boss bad mouth's boss's supervisors behind their backs. Supervisors thinks boss is great. I am boss's biggest asset. Boss keeps me in the shadows and takes credit for all of my hard work. Just this week boss asked me to give boss some extemely important information in regards to the submition of the quartly report. Then I find out that boss copied my information word for word on the report and claimed it as boss's own work. Boss is constanly stealing my thunder. Also talks about me to boss's supervisors and other people in the system and makes me out to be a fool which has prevented me from other job opportunities in the past. And then there is this. Boss recently hired boss's best friend of 23 years and boss's friend is now the highest paid employee in the building. Boss's friend has cause me some problems in the work place also. That's a whole other story. If I turn boss in then I run a risk of our program being shut down and I lose my job. I can't afford to lose my job. So there it is. I don't think you can really offer any advice but to tell me to suck it up and deal with it, but maybe I just wanted to blow off some steam.

Boss is an industrial psychopath. Do poor work for boss, and let boss take the blame for it (if possible). Find work for boss on internet, then let boss take the blame for your plagiarism. If you're doing most of boss' work, you should be able to replace boss.pasquala said:Hi ToR,

Yes boss is a psycopath. I can do the boss's work. The only problem is that I do not have the credentials so I do not qualify for the job.przyk said:Boss is an industrial psychopath.
