Hi everyone, I've been trying to lucid dream for almost 3 months now and last night I think I truly achieved it.....
So as far as I remember the dream started as a False Awakening, I was just lying in my bed for some seconds with my eyes open when suddenly I heard some really strange voices coming from the other side of the room (it looked like random female voices coming out of a radio). So I was kinda freaked out and I tried to turn on the other side to check what that was, but I just couldn't move. At that moment I believed I was in a SP (but in fact I was dreaming of having a SP) and I just closed my eyes and tried some visualizations, hoping I could step inside a LD but it just wasn't working... I was aware of all the bad things that could happen during a SP therefore I kept my eyes closed and tried relaxing somehow.. After just a few secs I found myself in my dark bedroom, but this time I was out of bed. I was standing by the windows and just looking around. Right now the dream was even more vivid and I unexpectedly made that realization that, in fact I must be dreaming.. So I immediately performed a RC ( pinched my nose) & I could breathe.. Yayy I'm dreaming I said... When in just 2-3 secs the room started to brighten and I just woke up...

I am really excited it finally worked, even though for 3 secs.. Anyway I have a question.... I've read that LD occur during REM sleep, and most commonly after 4-6 hours of sleep when REM period lasts longer. While for me, I had this dream just after approx. 1 hour of sleep (I went to bed at 10:30 and when I woke after this dream I checked the clock it was 11:45). How it is possible ?
