I have done the WBTB method several times this morning; incorporation both SSILD, FILD, and MILD but no go. I only was able to achieve a few non-lucid dreams featuring my backyard and an internet personality. My theory is that WBTB is effective when I actually get out of bed and move around for 20-30 minutes before going back to sleep like I had originally done in my "Mission Accomplished" journal entry. I haven't been doing that as of late because I don't want to lose to too much sleep and I am under the impression that WBTB techniques are most effective when you don't move around too much. We shall see. Until next time.
Woohoo! I finally had another lucid dream! I'm so happy, I can barely sit still to type this! Dream 1: I was sitting down on a rug in my old kindergarten classroom, talking to a boy I used to go to elementary school with, named Rhys. I don't recall what were were talking about, besides school and childhood. A while into our conversation, I noticed he looked sad, so I asked him, "Rhys, you look sad. What's wrong?" He looked at me, with the saddest look I have ever seen on his face, and replied, "You're dreaming." This shocked me quite a bit, and as soon as he said this, my dream began slipping away. After that, I stood up, telling my dream self over and over, "You're dreaming. You're dreaming". I was desperately trying to stay calm and in the dream. Sadly, seconds later I had woken up. It hadn't even sharpened into the clarity or reality that my first lucid had before I was opening my eyes to a darkened ceiling. Has anyone else ever had a DC tell them they're dreaming? I found it really odd, but exciting. Dream 2: I dreamt that my mom introduced me to a young man from Britan, who was in his twenties or thirties, and we were watching some children and young adults, including my younger siblings, dive into the ocean at night from a cliff. I warned them to be careful, but he didn't seem that worried. He encouraged my brother to jump. He said his name was Thomas. It was dark and pouring rain. Later, we were in my backyard, which looked strange and not quite like my backyard, and he was playing with a round red object he'd found on a tree. He re-introduced himself as Josh. He accidentally dropped the small red sphere, however, and it rolled into a large hole that went under my concrete porch. As soon as this happened, tree roots began to push up through the concrete. My godmother warned us to get out and stay away. We tried to use rakes and tools to pull the seed back out from underneath the porch, but to no avail. Amidst this chaos, an annoying talking Tomato Hornworm Caterpillar named Harvey came over, and apparently we were well aquatinted. He and I had agreed that he would be gentle with my tomato plants and be able to eat all the basil he wanted without killing the plant. He asked us what was going on, and when I explained, busy trying to pry out the seed, he laughed and crawled off, saying he was going to eat every last tomato plant in my garden. Somehow we either got the tree under control, or left it to destroy my porch. I'm not sure which. We got into Thomas/Josh's car and drove back to a large store that sold clothing and other things, like water bottles and sports gear. My siblings and my aunt and uncle were there, and we had fun looking around. I wondered if Thomas/Josh could have been a relative of mine on my dad's side, but I didn't think any of my relatives still lived in Britain, so I didn't ask. He and my brother were trying to find a nice souvenir he could take home with him. Dream 3: I dreamt that three people I know from school, Shawnee, Julie, another whom I cannot remember, and I, went to the movie theater. We had to climb over a lot of people to get to our seats, and when we got there, I was shocked to find that they had all turned into my friend Isabella's little cousins.

+ [vivid]riding motorcycle in a parking garage I climb on my motorcycle and open some (glass?) doors and roll out onto the ramp of a parking garage. I'm driving and leaning in to the turns and sometimes turn wide. I stop on a downwards ramp stuck in traffic. A huge black SUV comes up and lightly pushes me a few inches, I feel the movement and look backwards in annoyance, the SUV driver says something?

I remember before I went to bed feeling my chakra energy really flowing and remember setting the intention to find out what really happened in the missing memory gap when I was very young. As I went of to sleep, I found myself in control on my dream, but only on a certain setting, I couldn't manipulate the area of the place I was in, nor transport myself to another area, but I could manifest objects and people to a degree. I recognized that I was on Deep space 9 on the promenade. I decided since Ops is the central area to go there for answers, on my way I met with several of the the characters of the show referring to me as Ensign King as they passed me, I said good day to them and moved along I had met along the way to the lift Kira, Dax, and Odo. As I managed to get to the lift to ops I stated "OPS", and lift started to move but it did not go to ops it went to a habitat ring, I again repeated "OPS" but it still would not move, so I decided to take a walk around where it had brought me, Some of the rooms opened as I walked pass them, at first I thought nothing of it, then I felt I needed to see what was in them, I cant remember all of what I saw, but some had memories from my childhood, I remember seeing myself back in school, then brushing it off and moving along the corridor to next room as I got the door again the door opened but I saw a figure appear along the the corridor. A female person with brunette hair, I idmediately ran after her, I got to a door that had closed behind her tried to overwrite it, and thought, I not getting anywhere this way, so I crawled through the access panel tubes trying to go around and wound up in.... I loss the plot from this point on, I remember some more weird things happened from this point, but can't remember exactly what.
I was detective working for police, with two female agents I was sent to solve case of serial killer. We drove to a hotel and left our luggage in our room, then moved on to search for clues. First we drove to stables where last murder happened. I got past police blockade and took a look around. The whole place was rundown and stinking, the body was left lying in the middle of the room. No traces of killer. We drove back to hotel and got into about suspects - one woman living in a flat not far from our hotel had argue with recently dead. We drove there, I took a look around her house saying that I'm looking for toilet. In the meanwhile the woman gave agents a cake with special substance that temporarily blinds them. I went back to them and they said that they can't see, so I decided to take them back to hotel. Feeling that this woman wasn't the killer and their argue was just about that cake, I decided to check another suspect - one of teachers of nearby school. I assumed a disguise of janitor, while one of agents took a disguise of my wife, a new teacher in school. I wandered around, searching for any clues. I went back to the hotel, but couldn't open doors to my room at first. When I finally opened it, I saw medical emergency and a girl all in blood. The murderer have attacked, but his prey survived. The girl was a student of nearby school and other teachers decided to visit her in my room. Only one of them didn't payed attention, and hacked into my computer and started looking for magnesium phosphorane on police stocks.
Okay. Yesterday night I had a crazy super vivid dream. I'm kinda mad because it had never been this obvious that I'm dreaming, but I didn't realize it. I was at a bar with some other people. We all had a few drinks but since I usually don't drink, I was having water. At some point the bartender brought me three drinks for free in small glasses (little bit bigger than shot glasses) and one of them had a cap on top of it. I drank the other two first and the last one I thought was vodka. I took a few sips from it and all of the sudden I felt like I was tripping and saw intense color visuals. After 30 sec or so the visuals stopped but I thought that I was still tripping, because it hadn't been that long yet. I told the others that I think the bartender mixed some LSD or something in my drink and that I wanted to go home, because a bar isn't an appropriate place for this. I started to look at my hands to see how the effects were still. I probably looked at them about 20 times over the rest of the dream. My hands always had 5-30 fingers, some super long and some super short and others growing out of each other. The number of fingerst were actually changing while I looked at them.
Non-lucid but very vivid in details. I was with other people & we were trying to hide from I don't know who but we ended up in this house which was supposed to be my house. We went down hallways & up stairs until we finally reached what I perceived as a dead end. We were in a room. Nothing extraordinary about it or anything, just a bedroom & I didn't feel in dire danger either. Suddenly as I'm realizing it's just me & a couple of people that I don't know. I'm telling them that we are out of options. A man looks at me and smiles a sly smile & opens a doorway out of thin air & we step through. In this room there is a tall room. Very modern & it has a wall of windows. I look out the windows & we are up as high as a skyscraper! He's laughing saying "they won't find us in here". I'm finding that this is in such great detail & incredible I know I must be dreaming but before a lucid adventure could begin, Meesha Cat woke me up. I was pretty disappointed & tried to go back to sleep to do 2 task of the months but alas no dice. Non-Lucid-Green Lucid-Red Side Notes-Purple Astral Projection/AP-Brown
I was too out of it this morning to focus on remembering my dreams, but I know I had a few that I could've remember. All I remember was a false awakening involving my dog.
I was in the backseat of an SUV with my stepfather driving and my mother in the passenger seat and maybe my little brother next to me. We were on a sandy and rocky beach, the ocean immediately to our right. I told my stepdad that I felt afraid we were too close to the ocean and that I have dreams about him driving like this. Later: I had a gun. I was not me. I was going to go next door to a house and [kill???!! idk] 2 young girls. I felt hesitant and afraid and I didn't do it. But I kept thinking I had to go over there. Then I was on a train, maybe the same person, not me. I needed to go several cars ahead of me, but the train was moving and the sideboards that you were supposed to use were outside of the car, and I was afraid I would fall so I didn't go. Later: I was with an old friend whom Ive recently been wondering about in waking life. Some other people were there too. We might have been in a foreign country. We sat at a table at a convenience store/cafe. A man asked us if we wanted anything. At first we all declined, but I saw that I had a box with 3 donuts in it and I decided to order some coffee to go with them. My friend also ordered coffee. Soon after I saw my coffee on the counter near the register with a receipt under it and I walked over and picked it up.
So... I'm back. I haven't been dreaming much lately, as school projects keep me up late and stress keeps my mind blank. I have had three odd nightmares, though. Nightmares that I wish lucid dreaming could help me overcome... But I still can't manage to replicate my singular lucid from a few months ago. All of the nightmares have to do with a boy named Trent from my school trying to hurt me or scaring me. I'm hoping that I'll be able to defeat my nightmares and get this DC to leave me be. In the meantime, any help and advice would be much appreciated. I'm really hoping not to wake up crying or panicked another time this week.
D1 - needing to see a solicitor D2 - Walking through gardens in the baking heat, back garden is natural and covered with vines. At the front of the house my brother is standing on a well kept lawn. I talk to him about something to do with houses and gardens. D3 - I am with a survivor colony, we are somewhere very barren looking. The earth is blackened, maybe volcanic. I then go down into a cavern which is open wide the surface. We are all in rags and are discussing how to survive.
I was washing dishes, wearing a stupid yellow apron. I looked over my shoulder and saw this guy made completely of shadows looking at me. "Sid, you need to leave," He said. "They're gonna be here soon, to take you away!" He starts crying. "I don't want to lose you.." "For the thousandth time, I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!" I turned around, smashing the dish on the floor. "LEAVE ME ALONE YOU FREAK!" He looked hurt and sad, then angry. "All these years I was only trying to protect you! AND THIS IS HOW YOU REPAY ME?" He stood up. "You'll regret staying here." "For all I know, you're not even real!" I shouted. "How do you know?" "They told me..." He got up and put a hand on my shoulder. "They L I E." and just like that he was gone. I heard loud banging on my front door, and my vision went black. When my vision returned, I was standing in front of my front door, which was leaking black mist around the edges and still being pounded on. I reached towards the door handle, and my vision faded out again. This time when it returned, armed cops were in my house, guns pointed at me. I put my hands up, they cuffed me, and they injected me with a sedative. When the sedative wore off, I was naked in a room with white walls, facing a girl with blonde hair that went down to her feet who was also naked. Someone tapped me on the shoulder and I turned around. "You should have listened to me," the shadow said, before leaving once again. "NO! NO! WAIT, I'M SORRY! I BELIEVE YOU NOW!!" I banged on the walls and cried, eventually turning around to face the naked girl. she walked closer to me, and once she touched me, she turned into a tiger and mauled me to death. Then I woke up. That was a couple years ago. I have now actually been to that white room before, at least now. That room was the quiet room (Modern version of the rubber room) of the second mental hospital I was admitted to. I guess that dream was a warning to do something about the people at my school before they pushed me off the edge. I still have no idea who that shadow guy was supposed to be, but I named him Andrew for some reason.
I was walking through the woods near my house and then I heard really loud chanting. I was curious, so I walked towards it. Michal Jackson was wearing a priest outfit and leading this cult ritual where they were trying to save the jellyfish, and they forced me to help. I didn't want to help, so I shot down a bird and put it one the ground and said that the bird would watch over the jellyfish so I could leave. Michal Jackson was totally cool with this and he invited me to sing for their cult choir sometime, and left. So I went to my old bus stop, and waited for the bus to come. When I got to school, it wasn't actually school it was prison, and eventually we broke out by rolling up a giant ball of mud. (?) Once everyone left, I went into the cafeteria to find Peridot (From steven Universe) Making macaroni and cheese. I ate one bite of it, so she got mad and chased me out of the school. I got in a car and drove to the cult's meeting place in the woods, and all the cult members were super happy to see me and they let me play piano for their play. I don't know how to play piano, so I messed up, and the cult got mad at me and called the police. when the police got there, I jumped in my car again and drove to this research lab place that is close to my old friend's house, where the scientists put me on a rocket and made me watch a youtuber speedpaint a political map of the USA. the rocket failed and blew up a lot of stuff, but I was taken underground to this cavern full of undertale charecters. This demon guy showed up and introduced himself as the "other devil" and showed me around, only to figure out that I ate Peridots macaroni and turn on me, gathering up random people to beat me up. Then I woke up. I promise that this isn't a random = funny joke, this was a legitimate dream. It made a lot more sense while I was asleep.
These were both long dreams, but I can't really remember them well. In the first one I was I was outside on some sort of walkway looking up a payment hill. I was with a group of younger kids, and I myself was a lot younger. Then these grown ups started climbing the hill, and we all knew they were up to something bad. When they came back down the hill they got into this pickup truck, and either had something that wasn't there's, or wanted to take us (I can't remember). So a fight breaks out, and the grown ups try grabbing us. We all punch and kick back. There's this one really big and strong guy in the back of the truck who try's to grab me. Since I'm lower to the ground than him. I swing my first up really hard and hit in the face. He lets go, and I call him an ugly fat steeoids addict or something. Then I can't remember anything. The second dream, there's two very expensive cars being tested for their speed. I'm in one car, and there's someone else telling me about the cars speed, and what it can do. The other car has someone in it as well, and we're going to race. We start driving really fast, and the person sitting next to me says the maxspeed is 600mph. I want to get to this, so I go off this ramp. The car dose t land anywhere, and we're both launched into mid air. When we land backs not the track, the guy says we were at 400mph. Eventually we reach the end, and I can't remember who wins or loses.
Ehh...I fell asleep at 2am because of anxious thoughts. I don't really remember what I dreamt about other than my dad annoying me and me hugging my dead dog Max who was alive in the dream. :3 I woke up early so no more dreams to write but it was nice hugging him.
