I had one lucid dream experience. I was like “holy shit, this is a lucid dream! I can control everything happening.” And so I did. It felt so damn cool.
Then I woke up, at first impressed that I did that. Then I just couldn’t help but wonder if I was just dreaming that I lucid dreamed and that the choices I made were actually just a part of the dream. Now I feel like most lucid dreamers aren’t actually. Like this guy that can “control everything” and yet is somehow dreaming about Peter Griffin anyway due to made up limitations
Then I question free will or whatever and my brain hurts

Your choices in a dream are colored by the reduced mental output you have when you’re dreaming. In a dream, you might make a lot of dumb decisions than make perfect sense in the dream, but are immediately illogical when you think about them awake.
With lucid dreaming, you have an increased self-awareness, but you’re still in a low-activity brainwave state.

We have no free will, but not enough knowledge and power to break the illusion thereof.
