@Yasshat: Well, yeah. The problem is I'm somewhat of an experienced lucid dreamer, and have practiced dream recall. I don't remember 100% of them, nobody does. But the potent ones that have a powerful emotional resonance? Yeah, those are easy for me to get back if you know how. And what I find when I recall them is that my subconscious mind seems to be somewhat of a fighter. Not just in the traditional sense. Its like a part of me realizes I'm dreaming before my conscious mind does (Hence why I coin the term semi-lucid) and will twist the narrative of a dream into a more positive direction. Now that could actually be from practicing self healing meditation back in the day. Like you said, I have a lot to be anxious about. I just kinda have trained my mind to keep itself in check, so to speak. So when I do fall into anxiety or emotional turmoil, at least I could guide myself through the process rather than lie to myself and pretend it doesn't exist. (At one time, I was training my mind for stuff like the law of attraction, and that has generally made me a much more positive thinker.) But like when I have one of those dreams where I'm naked or loosing teeth, I don't need to go fully lucid in order to just snap my fingers and fix the problem. Suddenly I have a snazzy new outfit! Suddenly my teeth are back and shinier than ever! The dreams where I'm being chased by something? I noticed my first instinct is to either turn around and fight it, or accept it as a challenge and have fun outmaneuvering or playing mind games with it. Like I said, this kinda poses a problem when it comes to self analysis through dream recall.
Add to that, yes, I do have experience in dealing with negative spiritual entities, so like Midoria said, nothing really scares me in my dreams anymore, since I know how to fight back against stuff like that. So when my dreaming mind sees some ooze dripping from the ceiling, forming a blackened bloody pool on the floor, and watches as that puddle twists itself into an elongated lanky creature, it's first instinct is to just be like "Oh, this again." *Forms an aura shield and manifests a sword* (Not that I've actually experienced anything that terrifying in real life, but I digress.)
As usual though. It's the internet.

@Baka: I kinda do, though for me, I tend to have a harder time getting mechanical things to work in my dreams. Like a nerf blaster. Unless it's a fly wheel blaster, where you just pull the trigger and darts fly out, If I'm working with one where you have to prime it by cocking it, I always tend to get a lot of jams. Thank god I could just throw socks. Ah, HVZ dreams. Those are always fun.

@Baka: ^That. Because I do have experience in energy manipulation, things like FLAME HANDS come pretty easy to me. As do kamehameha waves, distructo disks, and spirit guns. But I fully agree. Trying too hard to comprehend why something isn't working will always cause me to wake up. Troll science makes things way easier. And yeah, levitation and permeation are fun to play around with in dreams.
Although psychokinesis tends to be what I use most heavily when I feel threatened in a dream. Its like a clown starts to rise from the toilet, and I'm just like "Nope." and force it back down, then transmute the toilet water to acid for good measure.

I can't lucid dream but I do have moments when I realize I'm dreaming.

Yup. Energy beams, energy shields, energy weapons, all the stuff. All the stuff you can do in elemental planes while in astral projection, or in the spiritual plane, translate really easily into dreams. It's like flexing a muscle. Which is why my unconscious mind tends to have access to that stuff. It's carry over knowledge for me.
One of these days, I should meet you in real life and teach you psionics. You live close enough that it's possible.

Haha, Chocopyro is a supersaiyan in his dreams!
I also used to fight my nightmares in a similar way on the occasion of a lucid dream. But I noticed, it's still stressful to me and I'd rather change the dream completely to something more peaceful.
Last night, my dream was much more realistic than usual and nothing illogical happened before the end of it, so I never realized it was a dream before I told myself "Stop it! I want to get out of here!"
