      Is this normal?

      first of all I'd like to congratulate the Dreamview staff for their hardwork into getting a .org for the site and having it back up for us! anyways so i've been at this lucid dreaming thing for about a month now and I've had a mild the second day after being introduced and havent been lucid in my dreams after that until 1 week ago, so I kinda got frustrated and decided to try wild wbtb. Guess what? I've been haveing lucid dreams through the wild method every day ever since! I've had 7 wilds in the last 7 days. My question: is this normal for everyone? or am I just good with this wild thing?

      If you ask my opinion, nothing is normal. Sometimes you have multiple LDs in a row, then a very long and drawn out dry spell that can be quite frustrating. So to answer your question: is this normal? Of course.

      You're just terribly good at WILD. I only got a handful of them during a year of lucid experience. Good job.

      Different techniques differ in effectiveness for different people. Seems like WILD is really your thing, congratulations!
      How to fall asleep more easily: useful for every technique and even non-LDers!

      My research on how to memorize and understand things more easily!

      Yeah, like everyone else said, you just found a technique that worked for you. You're lucky it's WILD, then you have a lot of control over when you have lucids. I suck at WILDs, personally.

      Nice man, I've yet to give wilds another chance. Any tips you could share from your experiences, for us guys?

      Yep, WBTB is my thing as well. If I manage to wake up in the middle of the night, I never fail to have a lucid dream. Congrats on finding your groove!

      As to whether it's normal... there is no such thing as normal. Waking life is weird enough. Dreaming is even weirder.

      OOOhh congrats! What has been your specific approach toward WILD?

      It's comforting to see this happens to other people, too. Unfortunately, I am in a dry spell right now. Guess I just have to keep trying and wait for the lucids to return!
