So in middle school, lucid had been like MY THING. I did it multiple times a week and got really excited each time. I wrote down every dream I remembered. I talked about my dreams 24/7, to the point where it was probably extremely annoying for my poor friend. I even had an entire story in my mind built completely around the concept of lucid dreaming. Obsessed was an understatement. Anyways I’m just writing to finalize my goal of returning to it. I quit character ai recently, so I wanted a new way to interact with characters!

Have any of y‘all stopped lucid dreaming and then started again? How did that go? Was it difficult to get your first lucid dream again?

So I still have to go to church, even if I’ve expressed to my parents that I’m no longer Catholic. I don’t think it was out of malice or anything, and I understand their reasonings. It’s unfair to my little siblings who overall believe but don’t want to be there. As my dad put it, “how will we get the six year old to go if his older sister can stay?”

So anyways, just wondering if y'all have any tips for surviving. I get really anxious in church for some reason. Typically excuse myself to the bathroom so I can have a breather.

I don’t even know how to describe the feeling I get in church. Restless, fidgeting, a worming in my stomach. Sometimes I zone out and realize I’ve been scratching my arm raw/digging my nails into my skin. My mom dislikes it.

I am just CRAVING a mythological retelling similar to hers. I’ve finished Song of Achilles and Circe and absolutely adored both of them. I loved how character-centric both of them were, and the prose was beautiful
