      Cant lucid dream? Heard of some people can? anyone here ADD?

      I've been interested in lucid dreaming for two years.
      After many on and off attempts I have has 2 lucid dreams and one (almost) OBE.
      I don't like to count my LD's, they have been when I realized I am dreaming but then I wake up seconds later.

      Though, knowing I was aware I was in the "dream world" really excited me and brought child like happiness but I soon woke up. I was in my house (false awakening) I saw skeletons on my wall and thought I was dreaming. I plugged my nose for an RC and my nose lie squished into my face but I couldent breathe (your suppose too).

      The floor was unstable and it was like gravity was glitching, like I was only half there. Then I woke up.

      I also had an unintentional OBE. I felt vibrations and then my heart started too beat a mile a minute (so fast, never expirienced it before) I saw colors in balls start to "skew"/drag as I was floating up but then I thought about how there may be demons in my house (silly) and I stopped. After that every time I closed my eyes I started to float up again but eventually it stopped.

      I regret not projecting as it doesnt look like it will happen any time soon.

      I have ADHD, so sometimes I get really into something and read about/do it constantly but then eventually ill stop and never do it for a long time. This is like me and lucid dreaming.

      It feels like there is no hope but I think I am prepared to dedicated and keep a dream journal.

      What I want to do:
      - Write in my DJ every day, imporve recall.
      - Start doing more reality checks and trying the awarness thing.
      - Attempting a WILD every night.
      - Waking up in early morning (when im in that phase where I can instantly fall back asleep) and attempt WILD or AP.


      Is there any suggestions you guys might have? Anyone here ADD that has successfully lucid dreamed?

      Should I change my what i want to do list?

      Persistence pays off my friend. Don't be discouraged by unsuccessful attempts, they are learning experiences. When you realize it's a dream, just go with it. Don't focus so much on the excitement that comes from initial lucidity, yes that's enough to wake you. It's best to have multiple reality checks that you perform one after the other in order to eliminate any possibility that your first should fail. You must however, remember to perform these multiple checks just as often as your original check, otherwise when it's comes time in the Dream to do it, you won't. You also may want to incorporate more reliable checks.

      The way I do it is first I try to use telekinesis, if that doesn't work, I try to remember where I am and how I got there. If I can remember well enough then I try to push my finger through something solid, like my hand. Having three checks that you perform frequently is a good way to induce lucidity as having only one is likely to have you kicking yourself in the morning, when you wake from the Dream your check failed to reveal. For me at least, my mind has made it more difficult for me to become lucid. I've used the same check for a while now, but recently it hasn't been working. I'll try to move something without touching it and it won't move, so I assume I must be awake. Even when I have this nagging feeling that I'm not awake, I dismiss it because the reality check indicated I was. Just this morning I had one of those Dreams.

      May i also introduce you to the world of supplements. I have been experimenting with a few natural supplements that boost certain aspects of sleeping and dreaming. While I would suggest that you try to attain a lucid state on your own at least the first time, there have been many success stories that result from supplement use. Galantamine, melatonin, and choline are among the most successful supplements out there. None of which have had any reported negative qualities to them. So I give u this advice.... Keep trying

      Hey Vendetta! I think that is a great list of plans! If you follow the diligently, you'll have a LD soon! Even if you fail the WILD, it could become a DILD because of your reality checks every day! That happened to me this morning actually! I'm also trying to get good at inducing WILDs.
