To be honest with you, it doesn't matter how other people do achieve it. You should only be doing what works for YOU and that's it. If you have a method you use on your own that works then I would suggest using that. Techniques don't work for EVERYONE, just for some who have had personal experience with the method or just naturally work for others. Hope this helps!

Well, given that I am very new to lucid dreaming (with intent, that is), and yesterday was my first and only lucid dream thus far, the most I can say is that for the past week I have thought more about dreams, focused on dreams, and it just sort of happened. I think if you want to have a lucid dream, a strong enough of a want will eventually result in one. I'm sure the techniques are excellent for those who have learned them, but for now, sheer willpower is my main technique

Also, keep a dream journal. In the first couple of days, I had already identified a dream sign. Ironically, I have yet to see this dream sign again, but it's progress nonetheless.

yes just do what works for you and i would say try them all, but the majority of my LD were from wbtb/wild. And what is GQDOIDUHILD?

**jimmy2times** · 10-20-2010 11:26 PM

I tried to WILD several times in one night and ended up having a DILD instead. It was uninteresting and I woke up the second I became lucid but hey, it's still progress.

By the way, the nose pinch RC is what triggered my lucidity. I knew it was a dream before I did the RC, but I didn't seem to have any clue what that really meant until after. Weird.

**Raetin** · 10-20-2010 11:49 PM

The first thing you should do is improve dream recall, you may miss some lucid dreams if you don't remember your dreams, still doing this myself. After that, I'm going to practice RC (reality check).

I've had... a few WILDs, but mostly DILDs because around the time I started taking antidepressants my SP count went down. After all, ADs are known to help get rid of SP in narcoleptics and what not.

**Hukif** · 10-21-2010 04:50 AM

Mostly DILD, I do ocassionally toy with the other techniques though, for the lulz.

**Inphinity** · 10-23-2010 11:49 AM

Is it weird that when I go lucid I dont do any reaility checks I just know its a dream like just a sudden realisation. I dont go hang on something isnt right ... am I dreaming? then do reaility checks to confirm it. It is just so sudden hmmm

**moongrass** · 10-24-2010 06:16 AM

yea, several times I have failed WILDs and then later that night have a DILD.

**Philosopher8659** · 10-24-2010 08:18 AM

I work on a very large machine where there are at least 9 computer interfaces, every once in a while it will come up with a fault message "How did I get here?" Well, I then make a story up for the poor thing. I say, well, last night you went out and got good and drunk and when you woke up, here you are. I reset the fault and restart the machine.

I started lucid dreaming before the invention of LDA (lucid dreaming acronym) revoluon, which invents more by the month. I just do it.All this bs about patting your stomach, hopping on one foot, sticking your tongue out, never really appealed to me.

**moongrass** · 10-25-2010 04:17 PM

thats really cool. so how long have you been LDing? also, what kind of machine says that?

**Philosopher8659** · 10-25-2010 05:45 PM

I do the last machining operation on engine blocks. It has 36 stations. It hones the cylinders and micro sizes the crank bore. Tolerences are + or - 9 microns. 4.8, 5.3, 6.0 ltr engines.

Built by Micromatic.

I started LD back in the late 1050's.

**moongrass** · 10-25-2010 07:22 PM

the 1050's? why I was just a young lad in those days....

Well, now, I remember you as a young lad starting out! The monastery was lit up with many candles, and all of us monks and bishops were sitting around the table listening to your lucid dreaming tales as we ate... I was only in my 40's then, so it's still fresh in my head. Good times, eh? xP

I mostly get lucid by chance or personal method. I accidentally did a FILD/WILD at the same time, but only once.

**Philosopher8659** · 10-25-2010 09:29 PM

Monks? Monestary? Not I. Celebacy is a sin.

**Snowboy** · 10-25-2010 09:38 PM

Dude, I was just joking around. >.< I knew you would say something of that sort.

**Philosopher8659** · 10-25-2010 09:51 PM

Now you spoiled my joke. Are you a girl? They do that all the time.

**Snowboy** · 10-25-2010 09:53 PM

...? Ok now you're confusing me. I'm a guy, not a girl.

**Hukif** · 10-26-2010 04:17 AM

Am I the only one laughing really hard at this?

**TexanDreamer** · 10-26-2010 05:26 AM

No walms, no you aren't

**Raetin** · 10-26-2010 06:18 AM

If he was a girl, I think his name would be Snowgirl. Lol, were going off topic.

I started around 2007-2008 but quit and started again.

**Philosopher8659** · 10-26-2010 12:26 PM

Nope.

**Raetin** · 10-26-2010 10:13 PM

Yup.

**AshRay** · 10-29-2010 03:56 AM

I honestly can't explain the process of getting lucid...it comes naturally to me. I've never even had to do anything to achieve lucidity. (Does anybody else find that odd?)
I'd love to help though if I could. :/
