So you're saying I'll die earlier and in a horrible way? Hooray!

Seriously, if you act out your dreams, you should talk to a doctor pronto.

This isn't something that's typically screened for in, say, annual physicals, but should be.

Now you've moved me from my depressive mood into fearful studying of the subject. I've been diagnosed with ADHD as a child and as I got older, it rather developed into ADD, because the hyperactivity is gone. Could this be another factor? Our neighbour had ALS and damn that would be a good reason to commit suicide instead of drowning in your defunct lungs in your own paralysed body with full mental capacity still functional

They no longer diagnose ADD and ADhD separately. From what people can tell, some kids just display more hyperactive behavior with ADD. But the brains work the same in all cases, so this just seems to be a symptom

It means if you can lucid dream. It's like playing out your dreams like a video game rather than just watching it happen and not be able to control yourself.

No. That is not at all what this post means. It is referring to when your physical body is reacting to what is occurring in your dreams.
