  • In the context of daydreaming, imagining is a very active process. In lucid dreaming, everything that is conjured simply happens independent of any active thought. I don’t have to think “if there were a bear there it would have brown fur and be big and round with teeth and it might make a grunt that sounds like this” I simply go “I want a bear to be there now” and it just exists and does bear stuff as if I had been having a dream about encountering a bear independently.

    Are your normal dreams not any different from daydreaming? If you have a nightmare about a monster chasing you it’s not any different from imagining what a monster would be like while you’re awake? Because for me those are two entirely different experiences.



  • Maybe you just don’t get as vivid lucid dreams as most people. For me it is less like daydreaming, and more like absolute power in a world of my own design. I’m not just imagining something, I’m going “I want this to happen now” and it happens with all the sights, sounds, and feelings that involves.

    My daydreaming certainly doesn’t compare.
