i usually dream every night and they are pretty vivid. unfortunately, a lot of the times, i get extremely frustrated with myself over something in my dream, and i start hitting myself, trying to punch myself in the face as hard as i can, but its never hard enough (i assume because my body is asleep, like you know how you try to run in your dream but your legs are so heavy and its hard to actually run). i also say mean things to myself in my dreams, calling myself stupid, fat, ugly, etc... and i wake up sweating and just feeling very down and upset that im dreaming this.

if i learn to lucid dream, is it possible i can stop myself when this starts to happen in my dreams? and has anyone ever had a similar experience to this?
