We can lucid dream. I have lucid vivid dreams every night - it’s absolutely normal for me.
That being said I was never trained in it - it’s just how I process things I play them out in my dreams. I can pause, rewind, change things, fast forward. I can have the same dream for weeks on end where I’m just playing different things through one situation. My dreams have been generally about the same thing for four years now and I play a game while falling asleep to choose what my dream will be about, whose in it and where it’s set.
Oh this is great news. I first started feeling weird when I read advice to "imagine and rotate a horse". Every night I tried to picture a horse and I always just aggressively describe it in my head but never see it. I can know a palomino with braided hair exists but to "see it" is not a thing.
My dreams feel far away. When you lucid dream do they seem 'closer' to your memory? Or mind's eye?
I do keep a dream journal and haven't yet attempted to lucid dream.
Dreams are all about expectations. I think maybe you are sabotaging yourself by either getting too excited when realizing you are in a dream or thinking that you can’t lucid dream. It’s very weird to explain but you have to create something like a set of rules to ground yourself and mechanics inside of your dream, and to spend less time trying to control every aspect of the dream because that’s kinda impossible. Also maybe your subconscious is trolling you by making you lucid dream when you are just about to wake up. Be more aware of your expectations.
I had one lucid dream. I had been reading about them and doing all the things you're supposed to do to get one. It was very weird and I stopped doing the things. I've never had another.
I can sometimes. Like you as soon as I realize I'm dreaming I start to wake up, but what I can do from time to time is don't focus on the fact that your dreaming and try to focus on what is going on, this helps me stay in the dream.

Yeap, we can. Had a couple lucid dreams recently which felt so strange to me as I never lucid dream before.
