anyone ever experienced lucid dreaming before

if you have tell me about it and what you did

I don't have normal dreams mine are in color, very real dreams and generally are nightmares or what most people would consider as nightmares. Most often I am somewhere in a gun fight and I know I am hitting my target but son of a bitch they don't fall, headshot doesn't matter they don't fall. Usually it's one guy in some of the dreams I have my guys dying as well. In the dream it's very vivid but it's so common I know it's a dream and when guns are not working I will go close up with hands or a knife. Like I said it's very vivid and I will see intestines during the fight I will see if the killing blow is a knife underneath the chin I even see the twisting and when I pull out I see blood dripping down the front of the enemy. In some dreams I run out of ammo then pickup whatever rifle.

The enemy is dressed in a few ways and will have varied weapons. I had a dream a while back super realistic that I had a broken sword and there was a giant, either way the giant dropped to a knee and I was able to behead him, then I saw other giants but they all ran.. I woke up that day pretty much looking for an immediate fight and it wasn't the usual nightmare it was very out of character for my dreams so I was a bit on edge for the rest of the day.

I find that in dreams I always act and react as if I was awake even when it's different than the normal. I have another odd dream which is frequent that I will be in a cage with a lion and he charges, I try to move to the door but realize that running away isn't what I have to do, so I will counter charge and like what one would expect in real life the lion either veers off or there is a fight. Sometimes I win I know this because afterwards when I look at the lion I will feel really sad that I killed it, Other times the lion and I fight we are both pretty bloodies and we both go our separate way like a draw basically.

I guess always do what you would do in real life when confronted by a situation even in a dream.
