Thread: Time to get first LD and LD frequency?

How long did it take you to have your first lucid dream after you started trying?

Did they build in frequency after that and if so, at what rate/how often?

Ten minutes. I took a nap and had it.

I stopped thinking about LDing for a long time because I got married. I went back to it a year later. It took me 5 weeks then. They have gone up exponentially since. Check out my DJ for how much. Gotta stay committed though, or they won't.

About 3 weeks. It slowly built up until it was 3-4 a week. Then I took a break, came back and built back up. Repeat that last part a couple times and now I'm currently at about 1/week.

I should add that I myself am at 9 days with no lucids.

I did however 2 nights ago have a regular dream where I was reading (what was supposedly a quote from an earlier writing) about lucid dreaming. I even realized that I didn't remember reading about this before but for some reason I just figured I must have missed it. I even remember what it said - that lucid dreaming should be avoided as a form of escapism (which I don't actually believe at all and was skeptical about in the dream). Then I had some other dream after that. When I woke up I was in disbelief how I didn't think while reading it, this is a dream right now! Thought it was pretty funny how my subconscious was trying to dissuade me too. I wonder if something like this means I'm close to a real lucid dream.

Well, actually i got first successful WILD pretty fast, i think it was my 2nd or 3rd attempt. :yumdumdoodledum:
I have an WILD at least once a week currently, though when i had no problems with WILD napping i had 2-5 per week for a few weeks.

A few days after trying I got one.

I make an attempt each night to have a lucid dream, so far this month I had 4, in my lifetime I had 6
