4th Lucid has Finally Arrived!!!!

[Adrenaline Junkie]

Hey, now i thought i'd never say this but i think i had my fourth lucid last night and i also know how i became lucid, i'll explain, i've been worried about my exams recently and been thinking about them a hell of a lot so i started talking to AdamA and he's helped me out so much with it and my vividness in my dreams has increased so he said "try and recognise signs in the dream that are not normal" i tried it on monday night and didn't remember a dream, tried it last night and "oh boy it worked", i was in the biology exam i have today, and they had all these random presentations and i was sat near the front, they started having people playing instruments in front of the year, i found it a bit strange, also i found it odd that i was referred to as Snake (off metal gear solid???) and that didn't convince me yet however the bullies started saying something to me, i didn't get what they were saying but it was obvious they were insulting me, so i just thought "thats it, i've had it" and i went to the front of that row of desks and did a big barge down it and every single desk including the person in them was burnt to ash, i basically killed them, i then started getting worried that i'd really killed them, nobody noticed except my mate andy who i was talking to about it, then suddenly after a few minutes of talking the seats that i had just burnt were back and the bullies came walking in and sat down, and i though "wait a second, i just killed them, i must be dreaming" so i got up and said "andy, i'm dreaming arn't i!" and he said "i think you might" so i did a reality check, pinched my nose as i ran to the front, but it semi-failed because i felt asthough i couldn't breath at point, there was only split seconds i could actually breath with my mouth and nose closed, but still it worked, then everything became a bit blurry, i felt dizzy in a way, lack of vision, i think i just tryed to stabalise, went back to my friend andy and said "i'm not dreaming am i" and he said "no your not". I don't know why i did it but i really don't care, its my fourth lucid, this dry spell is over!!! As for the vividness i don't think it was as real as real life, but it was more vivid than my first, but less vivid than my second and third, i didn't do any fancy control, that wasn't on my mind, the only thing on my mind was that i'd realised i was dreaming. It was longer than my second and third but shorter than my first but its a next step for me. I only have a few worries about this though, i have this feeling that i could have been dreaming that i did this, it was scripted and part of the dream, i could be thinking too deeply about it but i've only just awoken and i was dying to tell you guys about it. I probably was lucid and i'm darn proud that i finally did it and used a sign in the dream to trigger it, thanks for all the help DV and most importantly i have to thank AdamA for all the help he's given me, really appreciate it dude, speak later

Awesome news mate!! Now we need to move this forward and get them more regular, increase vividness and prolong lucidity

I think its good that you didn't try to do anything fancy like fly or have sex, your first few ones its best just to stay put and try to stabilize it. Look around and take note of your surroundings, using all your senses (how warm is it in there, touch the carpet ext) - and try to find your hand, it really helps pump up the vividness. But gratz man! More are sure to come.

Thanks It may be a slow start but with AdamA's help i've gotten really far, and its only been about a week, he's helped me get my fourth lucid and given me some great advice towards staying lucid etc, can't wait until my next one where i have to try and maintain lucidity and increase vividness.
