Yes, Ben. Many times than I can remember.
Believe it or not, I even tried to grab on something (or someone) when I know was going to wake up so that I could still see it when I opened my eyes for real.
Once upon a time, I used to have lucid dreams almost every night. Lucid dream is a dream in which one is aware that one is dreaming. And sometimes, I could even control my dreams.
I could switch my dreams freely ( I did that when things got really scary ).
When I dreamt I was flying and was about to fall, I could convince myself that I'm not falling and that was that. I stayed flying.
When I really had to wake up, I could just go back to sleep later and continue on dreaming the same dream (or the 'sequel' of it, to be specific). It was like I chose what I dream.
Yeah, it was cool. It was like exploring into a new world. Or a new me. Lol. But did you realize that I was using 'past tense'?
Yep. I've lost the 'gift' (If that's what you prefer to call it). A few years ago, a friend talked to me about lucid dreaming and how she'd love to experience it. I told her that I was a lucid dreamer and suddenly after that day, I stopped having lucid dreams. I guess it was something you MUST keep only to yourself.
But now, it seems like lucid dreams are coming back to me, little by little. Well, good. I could use some lucid dreams, right now. So that I know my dreams aren't real. And they're just... DREAMS. When you wake up, it's over.
p.s. I'm employed. And so is El. I'm not telling where hahaha. Guess I wouldn't have a lot of time to go online, for now. See ya! :D
