I don't have dreams anymore.
As a kid I naturally knew how to lucid dream, I still do, which is why I choose not to have dreams. The simple reason is that lucid dreaming or dreaming in general is tiring. It made me tired and anxious to wake up after a lucid dream, it was exhausting. As an adult I realize that there truly is no difference between the conscious and the subconscious. The subconscious feeds the conscious. What I am saying is that writing is just dreaming while awake. It disturbs me that few people realize that, feeding their delusions with suffocating presumptions about what should or shouldn't be done, what is right or wrong in writing or, well, in general.
I choose not to dream while I am resting because there is no difference, except the fact that it is the time that my body needs rest.
You can limit yourself, but in reality, our reality can be anything we want. Our limitations are there because someone put them there. Right now they are impossible to break due to the amount of people on earth. Suffering is growing because of it. Magic is dying.

Helo!
Thanks for the big text!
Let 's see...
I thought about learning how to lucid dream, but decided against it because the end goal sounded boring to me. There's no fun on having full control of everything I dream of, all dreams would basically be the same everytime. For better and worse, I like that my dreams are just collage of things that my mind conjures up while I'm resting. It makes for a unique experience that never you can't really have in reality + with the added bonus of having any side effect! (Aside from a slight scare when I wake up sometimes.)
I can see how writing and dreams are basically the same, a lot of the stories I want to write came from dreams or were influenced by dreams in some way. But I do still think there's a bit of a line between those. I like to think that dreams are more like the rough stone of a story, while the act of writing is the polishing of said stone.
