Drinking breaks up your sleeping patterns, so I guess it could be because he was waking up in the middle of the night and WBTBing non intentionally.

Don't worry you can lucid dream, I was sceptical frustrated also at first.
What methods have you tried so far?
have you been keeping a dream journal?

I dream Journal, as well as I can. I was doing really well for awile. And latly I havn't been remembering them as well. I'l lget back into it though. Just a swing of things.

I have tried WILDing, it seems to me the best and most affective way. It hasn't worked yet, the first few times I did it, I was TOO awake and eventualy gave up, it took far to long. And latly I am too relaxed and loose it. I drift too much. Short attention spand.

I RC regularly, I try to atleast. It just doesn't seem to produce anything, I never find myself doing it in my sleep. But I supose if I KEEP doing it, eventualy I will.

Patients I supose.... That's all I need.
I'm not really sceptical, just irritated that I havn't been able to yet. I would love to try this idea, venturing into my mind, without my body! It sounds amazing. Walking in my dreams. But I can't seem to grab onto it, it feels so far away....

November 28th: I also got up in the middle of the night for a glass of water.. went to the washroom... then went back to bed, and then I had my first and only lucid dream! I think either the drink of water or washroom break MUST have triggered that lucid dream because I never do those two things.

Lol, I don't think he was implying that his friend only drinks water every other day.
I think he may have ment alcohol.

The getting up in the night and going back to sleep, that's definatly possible that it helped. You should look into the WBTB method.

All that is good, i'm going through a dry spout also. It'll probobly come to you eventually, just keep doing what your doing. I suggest the WBTB method if you haven't looked into that already.
