I do this a lot, but I just thought it was a daydream turning into a real dream... Like falling asleep when I daydream.

Didn't know it had an actual term for it =P

Yeah, I have those all the time. Also, I can make myself wake up when I am dreaming, which apparently is really odd. Like, if something I don't like is happening or about to happen, I'll consciously force my eyes open in order to wake up. I've been doing it ever since I was a kid.

i am amused that you think that we dont know you're 'nutters' already, cameron.

I usually can only take control of what is happening to me in my dreams when i am scared. Or when i wake up from a dream and try to go back to sleep in hopes of finishing it.

I just walk out of my body when I sleep. Its one of those reasons why I'm so hard to wake up if I'm actually asleep, and if I do wake up then if I don't walk back to my body I can't move for like 30 minutes, I'll be conscious and be able to talk but I won't be able to move. Although strangely if I walk back to my body I feel like I would have not been breathing for a while, although I'll just be able to spring awake and go then. Although with me my dreams are mainly walking around in a collaboration of everything I've seen while I've been alive. Kinda like living in Los Saustiegas... (Las Vegas, Austin, Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco not that I've lived in san fran though or Vegas for that matter). I'm always searching for faces I still see, as clear as day, from being a kid that I lost the name to though. Its kinda wierd. I still remember a few, but if I could just get their names again then I would be a little better parted with them. Although you could say that they had some involvement with me growing up. Like a bunch
