Thread: I think I may have lucid dreamed when I was younger.....

Well it sounds like you did have lucid dreams when you were younger. This is ompletely common among other people, as a majority of people have lucid dreams when they are younger. It usually helps people to find this site.

Yep, like NeAvO said, most people here got their LDing start with experiencing it as a kid. It seems like people lose the ability as they get older though and have to actually try to induce them rather than them occuring naturally like they used to. I was one of those kids, too - especially with nightmares like you said. Luckily, I still attain lucidity spontaneously, and especially with bad dreams so I can wake myself up.

When I was a kid, I dreamt I was on the Mighty Ducks hockey team. I knew something was kind of wrong, so I skated up to the coach (whatever actor played their coach) and asked "Is this a dream?". He said no, but I knew he was lying. After that, I just went with it and finished out the game. It was the coolest thing at the time.
