Do you have lucid dreams?

Sometimes I wake myself up by punching the wall in bed from dream fights…
But not so much lucid dreams

Yes, as I understand it I probably have, but it seems that recently it has become something of a fad. I am sometimes aware that I am dreaming, other times not.

Dreams are certainly related to schizophrenia. Sleep issues and nightmares may be an early warning sign of a threat to mental state, too.

I am not sure what lucid dreams are. My dreams were always colorful and vivid. Sometimes I experienced something like my brain waking up but my body staying asleep. It lead to the sensation of being suffocated and my nightmares “bleeding in” into the reality. Basically dreams turned into hallucinations.

My flavour of schizophrenia isn’t paranoid however. Therefore I rarely perceive any kind of persecutions or threats to myself, be it in dreams or in delusions or otherwise.
