This is Part 43 of the big “Hi I’m New Here” topic. The previous part can be found here. All links to previous parts including the “shake hands” topics can be found in this post.
Keeping all the intros in one topic prevents us from having thousands of individual “hello, I’m New” topics and keeps the forum from getting cluttered up. Anyone is welcome to post here , new and old members. So don’t be shy , we don’t bite .
Hey everyone, I’ve been a visitor to this site for several months now, but I’ve just recently (last night actually) signed up for the forums here.
Obviously, I’m a wanna-be lucid dreamer. I say “wanna-be” simply because I have been trying for a long time to do so, but I have not had a single lucid dream to date. I’ve recently restarted writing my dreams in my online dream journal on Dreams Box.com and I do my best to do reality checks throughout the day (although I really need to improve on doing these). I can remember my dreams pretty well usually too.
But in all this time that I’ve tried, as I’ve said, I’ve yet to have one. There have been a few times I’ve come close since I started, but not quite.
I’m starting to believe that maybe I’m just not capable of it. Hoping this isn’t true, does anyone have any tips I can use?
As it seems to be a common habit to introduce yourself upon entering the forums I, too, decided to do so…
I am 18, and value dreams over everything, so LD’s are not new to me, I have now worked with them two years, after which i kept a year-long pause before trying again. Which, in fact, is now
I, however, have not registered to any forum before this. And I must say, even though humans can be rude, insulting and everything beyond, folks here seem to be real friendly towards each other. That being said, I hope we get along.
And, of course, hello to every fellow dreamer out there reading this.
Everyone is capable of having lucid dreams, you just need to believe you can. Don’t loose hope. For tips: Do alot of RC’s, ask if your dreaming, count your fingers, look at your hands, etc.
Thanks for the pm of your dream maureen it really does sound like an astral experience to me.
hello The Slave, welcome to LD4all
well, if you want a friendly crowd you definitely chose the right forum I’m sure you will make some great friends here
hello JustinMullins
there are lots of tips and info all over the forum. have you read the choosing your technique topic yet in the quest forum? It’s a sticky topic and will point out the probable best method for you
As You see, I’m 17. I’ve worked with LD’s, OBE’s, and dreams for about one year, so it’s nothing new for me. Unfortunately I haven’t got many achievments in this sphere yet, but i hope this will change soon I had some AP’s and LD’s and most of them came with WBTB technique.
Also I want to say that my english could be sometimes quite incorrect, sorry in advance.
Hi I’m new here…I’m in my teens and I used to have a lot of lucid dreams when I was around 8 and 9 years old. At the time I didn’t know what they were but I thought “ok whatever” Ever since I found out what they were I have been trying to have them again.
Welcome Nessa! Glad to see a natural lucid dreamer join our ranks here on LD4all. Hopefully the information on this site will help you get your conscious dreaming mojo back. We all get dry spells sometimes.
My real name is Frank, I’m 23 years and I live in The Netherlands where I study Psychology at the Erasmus University.
Despite my efforts far nearly a freaking year now, I haven’t gotten lucid yet. But my dreamrecall is very good and I’m real motivated to get it, so I guess it’ll be a matter of time.
Anyways, I’m glad I’m meeting more and more people in RL who share the same interest in LD (they also recommended me to come here). I think I’ll enjoy this board. I definately loved the article from Frederik van Eeden that I read here.
yo, i"m new here so I’ll keep it short
really want my first LD. been trying for 11 days. can’t even remember normal dreams. Started DJ but it’s not helping.
hello Nessa, Maruta and horsepower60
Nessa, as Genkai said, you will soon get your lucid ability back it might be a good idea to read the choosing your technique topic in the quest forum (it’s a sticky topic near the top) so you can decide what tech would probably work best for you
Maruta I’ve already noticed your posts elsewhere on the forum it’s good to see newer people becoming active posters
first of all it’s really important to get that basic dream recall up … since it is useless to have a LD and not be able to remember it
so make notes of anything you remember from your dreams every morning no matter how insignificent it seems. It will get you into the habit of jotting it down. Also lying in bed for a few minutes and trying to recall dreams is good practice … if you jump out of bed right away … the dreams will probably jump out of your head too
Then once your recall has improved a bit, start using MILD or WILD with WBTB
