      So close...

      Well, this is my first post here.

      I found about this place a month ago, and I'm not a natural lucid dreamer. I do recall being lucid in childhood nightmares, but ever since I learnt how to realize it was just a dream, I haven't remembered a nightmare, or a lucid dream since.
      I've been trying to lucid dream since a few weeks ago. I've kept a dream journal, but I haven't written much. There was one dream that I wrote about 200 words on, though. Anyways, I tried listening to music during my sleep to realize that I'm dreaming, but my iPod ran out of batteries. I am not familiar with the dream terms, but last night something awesome happened to me. I woke up in the middle of the night, but I was barely awake. I remembered a post that I read here. I kept telling myself that I'm dreaming and that I'm going to become lucid. After repeating that for about a minute, I started reciting the alphabet (I also read this in the same post I read earlier.) At some point, my body started shaking. I was scared, excited and confused at once. Slowly the sensation started going away, though... I tried to hold on to it, but it went away... I think I got too excited, or I did something wrong. I also may have been thinking too hard.
      I'm not too frustrated that I didn't become lucid, I'm just frustrated because I was so close.

      i am new at this, in the last week, the first week i have gone Lucid twice (my first week) but i was told by the person who first informed me of Lucidity is just imagine yourself doing summer salts, feel the change of gravity, but before, do a Reality check.. i feel this is the best way for dream re-entry or DEILD, everyone is different though. but you may want to try this.
      Be who you are and say what you feel becuase those who mind dont matter and those who matter dont mind.

      For the record, it's a possibility that I dreamt that I almost became lucid. It felt so real, though.

      Sounds like you were starting to get SP, I have no idea why it would go away, unless your body was ready to wake up.. Which wouldn't make sense in the middle of the night..
