One of my symptoms while I was untreated was very disturbing and often apocolyptic nightmares. These nightmares would leave me fatigued and anxious throughout the day. About a week ago, I expressed the desire to fly to a friend. She suggested I should fly in my dreams, saying it was a nice sensation. That night as I dreamt I felt as if my conscious mind exerted power over my dreams, because I was able to tell myself to fly in my dreams multiple times, and it happened. So my question is: Is it possible for one to learn to control one’s dreams? Have there been studies conducted regarding this? Have there been instances in which, for example, people with recurring nightmares have learned to overcome this symptom through controlling their own dreams? To expand on this topic, if it is possible to control one’s dreams, and dreams are subconscious, is it possible to tap into one’s subconscious while dreaming? As many psychologists and psychiatrists believe, many emotional and behavioral disorders are a result of something hidden in the subconscious mind. If dream-controlling is possible, could it be a way to find these hidden emotions, bring them to the conscious mind, thereby giving the inflicted person a better resource to find a ‘cure’ to their problems more effectively? The ability to control one's dreams?
