Thread: How long have you been lucid dreaming for?

Hello everyone, Ive only been lucid dreaming for about a month and i was interested to see how long everyone on the forums has been attempting to Lucid Dream.

A bit more than a year.

And... I just noticed that my 1-year anniversary passed without me noticing. x)

A little over a year for me as well.

For around 6 months or so.

Attempting to, that would be 14 years.

I hope more people vote, this is interesting..... around 3 or 4 months for me...

About 6 months for me.

About 6 months for me as well. ^_^

well, I would always lucid dream naturally when I was younger. but since August is when I actually got into it, learned about it, and try to do it

3 years.

I've voted for 1 Month, because I have only "attempted" to lucid dream since I joined these forums.
However, I've had lucid dreams all my life, I just didn't know there were ways to improve dream recall and induce lucid dreaming.
I remember that I had many lucids as a child, but as I became older, my dream recall became worse and worse to the point where I only remembered ~1 dream a month.

5 years

Wow these results are pretty interesting, could be a coincidence but I believe the large ammount of people at 6 months could be because of inception hmmm

I got into lucid dreaming about 8 years ago when I was in 6th grade and looking online for a way to avoid nightmares. Really glad I discovered it. I've never really mastered it, I've just had LDs on and off, but I've been working at it again recently and making some decent progress.

i did too start at 6th grade! :d i was 11 years old at that time,
now im 16 :p

that's really interesting that you tried to have lucids in 6th grade. how old were you then?

about 3 years but often I take a break from it for awhile and eventually try to start up again.

Iv been trying for about 10 months now. Its completly changed my life spiritualy. Been pretty on and off though, when iv had breaks from smoking weed I can get one every 2 nights at least but as soon as I start smoking again it turns to shit!

Only a week. I have not had a lucid dream yet, but I think I'm getting close.

Since I was a little kid, but I never really try to, they just come naturally.

Been trying for a month, and I think I am so close to first lucid it can happen any night now.

One year on next Tuesday.
E: Next Tuesday is one year from my first LD since reading about LDs, my first LD I remember was when I was 10.

I started a little over a year ago but then stopped till about august. Which is when I started up again. So for about three months.

A year and a half.

About six months since I've most recently been trying with dedication.. but before that I tried for a few months about a year and a half ago without any success.. I just went through some boxes in my basement to give things to goodwill though, and found a journal from Sept. 2006 when I had my first ever lucid dream, which I think sparked my interest to start intentionally having them.. I read S.LaB's Lucid Dreaming when I was about 14 though and have always been interested but unfortunately didn't put any effort into it/doubted. But now, it's sweet.
