It only took me 3-4 months to achieve my first lucid dream. Might sound long but I've read about people not having them after years of trying. It has been pretty life changing for me. It's so hard to describe how it feels to be completely aware and concious in a dream.

I was having a regular dream when I seen a girl from work with three guys and they'd all been beaten up. I was going to help them get away from there and I said to the girl "I'm dreaming you know?" I suddenly realised what I'd said and started to materialise. I ran around screaming because of what I'd managed to do then woke up. But it was a false awakening and I managed to get straight back into the dream and become lucid again. I'm not gonna go into all the details of my time when lucid but I will say that I ended up going flying and it was one of the best experiences of my life. Really hope I can have another one very soon and then make it a regular thing.

Thanks for reading my first thread and my experience.
