Hi everyone, I'm a guy who's occasionally busy trying to achieve lucid dreaming for a few years now. Sometimes I try almost every day, sometimes I forget it for several weeks. Despite this, the thought of lucid dreaming creeps me out every now and then. When I'm actually lucid dreaming, I'm pretty calm and a little bit excited. But when I'm awake, thinking of lucid dreaming gives me the feeling that I can never trust the world to be real and that my scared thoughts may become reality if I lose focus. |

Spoiler for Secret to LDing:
Love your Spoiler man, seems as though only a few really believe it is possible though. To me it is key, and I really feel that it is a game changer. |

Goals:
-Become Lucid in every dream every night
-Perfect the time dilation watch
-Continue to have a dream plan for most of my lucid dreams
It's normal that you experience ups and downs in motivation, it happens to most, if not all, of us. But I don't think you should be scared of it. Lucid dreaming should be everything but scary. Just think of what you can do with it: control nightmares, get to know your fears, solve problems, learn skills even. Having super vivid lucid dreams will not change the nature of waking reality, don't fear that. The worst thing that can happen is that you get what some call "false memories", which are dreams so vivid you can confuse them with memories. I don't have any of such memories though. But well, overall, don't be afraid of lucid dreaming, it can't hurt |

I've had several lucid dreams in the past years. It's just been some months since I've been busy with lucid dreaming now. |

Hm, I think I know what you mean. I had similar feelings when I first started lucid dreaming - I think it was because at the time the entire idea was so new, so alien to me, and finding myself present in such vivid, realistic dreams for the first time made me tend to questions things in real life more as well. The loss of control while actually in the dream is also a big part; perhaps it's thinking about how absolutely anything can happen now, not trusting oneself not to think of negative things, not trusting the dream itself, etc. For a while it gave me chills also. |
