Thread: Importance of Mood to LDing

Thanks. That's too bad actually: I thought it would be possible to train myself to have many hour long WILDs in the span of the maybe 40 minutes I have alone (But, of course I can't even DILD yet, let alone WILD or DEILD). One more question (I'd understand if you're getting tired of answering these):

I've heard a bit about a chemical, Galantamine, which helps with lucid dreaming. This sounds very scary to me - It seemed ominous when I first heard about it if it can affect the brain in such a way, and then I found out it's used to treat Alzheimer's which makes it even worse - but is it necessary when you get into the higher stages of LDing like Sageous? Is it impossible to get past the medium levels of lucidity without such an aid? And have you noticed it impacting your mental performance in waking life? I want to lucid dream, but I'm not willing to be gradually reduced to a blabbering idiot over the course of my lifetime for it. I'd rather not take it at all if I can avoid it, but will I eventually have to if I'm serious?
