Oh well...we have several copies of a ton of threads and it won't hurt to have another of this one, as it is very interesting to know how everyone found lucid dreaming.

The first time I was lucid was like 5 years ago. I was having some dream, following the normal chaotic happening of one until I suddenly looked at my watch, the same one I had just lost like 2 days ago. Then I thought to myself: "How can this be, I lost it and don't remember having found it, it must be a dream". It was the weirdest sensation to realize this, but I made myself wake up to prove to myself it was a dream(I know stupid...)

Well, 4 or 5 months ago I discovered this site through the "How Sleep Works" section of www.howstuffworks.com. The rest is history...
