minus-squareSabata11792@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up12·9 months ago Ask how you got here. Ask where/what/why. Try to observe stillness. Stare at one item for way too long and watch it gain detail. Ask strangers impossible questions about your self. Close your eyes and see if you remember opening them. Check if text and numbers change or fail to stay tell a coherent idea. Do not disturb the second ones as it just wakes you up. Just confidently Harry Potter your ass though a wall, it will work if you convince yourself. Stare at your hand for too long, 5 is hard to keep track of. Look in a mirror and watch your brain short out a bit. Hit a light switch a few times, see if lights break reality.

minus-squareLabonnie@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoGosh, I have that recurring theme that I want/need to call 112 (European 911) but mistype every time… Three digits. But I will fail every time.
minus-squareAnarki_@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoTrust me, you won’t fuck up if you ever need to. How do I know? Have called multiple times.
minus-squareXIIIesq@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·9 months agoReading text works really well for me. When you realise that you can choose the text before you read it, you’re on the road to lucid dreaming!
minus-squareNotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 months agoThat first one is the only one that almost never fails me. There’s only been 3 or 4 times out of hundreds where I was like, yep, that’s normal, and didn’t become lucid.
