Yes, you probably need to create those dummies. Note that including lots of controls will inevitably make the algorithm run more slowly.

I have two categorial variables M1, M2, I wanted to add M1 * M2 as a control variable. Yet, it does not seem to work with categorical variable interactions. Creating many dummy variables might be my last option... Any thoughts? Thanks!

Thanks! Will try. I tested it with M1*M2 but then got a error "In chol.default(mat, pivot = TRUE, tol = tol) : the matrix is either rank-deficient or indefinite"
