Just wanted to know if any of you do it on a regular basis. I find it fascinating, personally, but I'm not very good at it. I'm not a very good dreamer at all.

ok, let me break down my logic. Dude said he gets high in his dreams, I thought about it and agreed. Yet this doesn't seem to coincide with my experience that I can't quench my thirst in my dreams. They both seem like bodily things, so why does one work and the other doesn't?

getting high is an effect... recreational and unimportant.

Quenching thirst bears a great degree of symbolism for the human psyche. Unsatisfied desires and clinging to unsatisfying methods are just a pair of examples for why drinking water would not quench thrist in a dream.

Unless you're a junkie, drugs just don't carry the same weight in the subconscious mind. At least for the typical person.

Like when I walk in dreams I have no problem getting from here to there. But when I have a fight in a dream, it's like there's this terrible weight in my arms and I move real slow and my violent attempts become very exagerated and self defeating. Walking is so trivial, why waste time on it as a medium? But violence... agression, now there's an opportunity for reflection!

here:

when you get high in a dream your head says "i am smoking, i am getting high, ok." but when you drink in your dream, your head asks "stomach, am i drinking anything?" your stomach says "no"

maybe next time im lucid i will try some shots...

I've not really attained full lucidity, but I've been reading the Munroe Astral Projection stuff and getting into it. The only difference I see between lucidity and AP is the method in which you use to get there.

The other day, I woke up in the middle of the night and decided to try projecting because being half asleep is an ideal opportunity to attempt projection - Body comfortable and rested, see?

To cut a long story short, I got the numb body sleep paralysis feeling and when I managed projection, I ended up in a monochromatic pixellated world that I just had to get out of because it was fuzzy and hard to see well in.

I'm making progress, but it's hard work. I'd like to be able to EP as well as AP and lucid dream.
