23.02.2010Reverse World (WBTB) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I was only out of bed for a minute or two, then again five minutes later. Because I was still drowsy, I cannot remember the transition into a dream- I usually only get SP and hypnagogia if I WILD later in the day, I have found. I made a real effort to go and visit my friend round the corner in my dream. I had a number of false awakenings in various people's houses, all within a couple of miles of my the person's house who I wanted to visit, so I set off towards it each time by running, flying low and skipping parts of the journey. The area around me was bizzare. Really mind-blowingly strange. I was using <PERSON> (which I could nearly always see) as a point of reference to navigate. However many of the streets went in the opposite direction, as in they were mirrored. Once I woke up at the beach. In real life, the beach is a mess, but in the dream, it was wide, sandy and clean with people playing in the sea. Nothing was quite as it seemed. I knew where I was (or where I was supposed to be) becuase of what part of the <PERSON> I could see, so I headed West along the coast to find my friend's house. I passed through a holiday resort which is not there in real life, and over a couple of ponds. Other things, like hills and roads were missing. I eventually made it to my destination, but the street was messed up. It was vaguely the right shape, but the road was warped, and the houses were a totally different style.

If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
