Thread: Tell me about how your friends/family/colleagues react to your interest in Lucid Dreaming

Are they supportive? Have they also taken an interest? Do they think you're some new age weirdo? I'll start

I'm not the kind of person to hide bits about myself from people. When they ask what's new I'll tell them about my new interests however odd or socially unacceptable they may be. Strangely people react more to the fact that I watch professional Starcraft 2 matches on TV than when they find out I put a lot of effort into becoming aware in the Dream State - but I digress.

A few co-workers have given me the "Damn son, what the hell did you put in your coffee?" look.

My girlfriend had a fleeting interest - she started a dream journal for a few weeks but I don't think that it went anywhere beyond that.

My roommates are tolerant of my LD ramblings but havn't taken any interest themselves. One of them was actually extremely excited that he was in my first Lucid.

A few close friends found it very interesting and now ask me almost every time we see eachother if I have dreamed anything exciting.

My family just thinks its another weird thing I'm doing and have not really payed it any mind.

How about you??
