Boring LD's

I have been dreaming lucidly infrequently for about 15 years now. Within the first 5 years I began to habituate to the state. I then began dreaming lucidly less, or even perhaps stopped recalling them.

Last night I had a series of 3 very long LD's with full lucidity and a very stable environment. One was lit brilliantly the other two seemed to be of a lesser R.E.M. cycle and were hopelessly dim. They were all pretty boring. I didn't know what to do. I flew around some. I talked to people. I had one long conversation with two other dream characters. But by the third dream I invoked a false awakening just to be done with it. I then became too bored to even check if I was in fact still dreaming or not. I guessed correctly that I was probably yet dreaming.

Has anyone else encountered this? Any ideas. It feels like such a waist of another realm. I am fully aware of all the possibilities and seemingly fully lucid but yet no great ideas ever seem to be acted on. It's like there is this pervasive sense of apathy regardless of knowledge.

Any feedback at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. Perhaps I was caught a bit off guard this time since I have not recalled an LD for a while. I will think up some adventures to act upon for next time. Looking back to childhood was a great suggestion.

You can always try to go to another universe with all kinds of things.
You can also do what you enjoy in real life, but into the extreme.
Have a discussion with your subconsciousness about anything. Or multiple things at a time.

I have tried to fly out into space but the telephone lines always stop and tangle me. Also it seems the lack of visual stimulation when entering the night sky causes me to loose the dream. I once tele-ported near Jupiter and found it's sheer size and perceived mass astounding and mind blowing... I was not able to get visuals before it's overpowering gravity forced me to re-inhabit earths gravity.

I have sought an encounter with my/a spiritual guide and when it occurred I was frightened and I awoke. I didn't like someone/something else outside of me within my dreamscape.

I like the suggestion of doing what I love in real life only to the extreme. I will give that some thought.

Thanks!

It sounds like the dreams are expressing a sense of apathy and depression in your life that perhaps you are unaware of, or maybe you are. What if you asked for guidance around that? I had a lucid dream once where I was going to call an angel, but was afraid, so I asked for guidance instead. A very gentle presence helped me a great deal, it was not outside of me, but within me and around me in a completely kind way. I felt held and supported. Maybe you can try for something like that, ie ask for guidance that is kind to you. Best of luck.
