First EVER results after over a year

I’ve known about lucid dreaming for over a year… and last night finally showed SOME results.

I was in a dream… It was a normal dream and i was at my old work place (in a retail store). I was walking by the “seasonal” isle. And saw the Christmas merchandise. (christmas is over duh) I said to myself… “Am i dreaming?” I mean… i wasnt a consious effort… it felt like i was on autopilot or something.

For a few seconds nothing was happening… “Isn’t something suppose to happen when i do this?” Then all of a sudden i had a weird sensation… my left leg was tingling. Then I lost the dream. And i remember trying to reenter the dream. (again felt like auto pilot)

And i woke up in the morning and remember some more normal dreams. And of course my lucid failure.

I know this happens to people when they are overly excited, but I was REALLY calm. I don’t know why i lost it. I just kind of got kicked out of my own dream.

Most of my dreams are never like watching a movie… more of a something similar to recalling a memory.

Ah well, I’m disappointed… after waiting a year for ANY steps forward i finally get one. But it wasnt successful-- what if its a nother year or more before It happens again? Not just a Lucid dream…but atleast CLOSE to one.

Getting warmer Tazeron…hang in there more success may be just around the corner.

hey i think the problem is that you just aren’t optimistic enough…maybe you are too calm, dont be afraid to get excited in a LD, it’s easier to work yourself to calm from being excited than to not become lucid because you are too chill
