Well, I am crazy, but it still annoys me when people laugh or give strange looks when I check to see if I'm asleep. Ah well, they're the ones that miss out, they don't know how amazing lucid dreaming is!

**Blitzwing** · 08-26-2008 03:30 PM

Isn't it no matter what others think about ya? i do this whenever i want, and when they ask me: "are you crazy?!" i tell them y not, if they believe it or not. LD is proven!

**Shift** · 08-26-2008 03:35 PM

Yea I mean I know for a fact it is real, even without scientific proof, because I've experienced it. People thought Christopher Columbus was crazy. And there are still people to this day who think the Earth is flat (flat earth society). It must suck to be afraid to take a cruise ship across the ocean, but the rest of us can have all the fun soaking up the sun

**Yoricko** · 08-26-2008 03:41 PM

Everyone has a crazy side in them

**Conkeen** · 08-27-2008 12:59 PM

Some of my friends think its real but that i cant do it >.>

oh and i did a lucid task last night ^.^ dancing banana time!

I met a person today very interested in LDing. It was exciting to randomly bring it up in public and literally have the person next to me say, "ARE YOU A LUCID DREAMER?!?!"

We had to put up with the skepticism of the others but, screw them. At least we don't spend half our lives asleep!

Bring it up, or talk to you about it? You'd be surprised what peoples' reactions are. It was an amazingly positive experience. My psych prof was actually standing there telling me LDing isn't really a conscious experience and is pretty rare, and I tried to tell her that it is conscious and not rare at all until she admitted she'd never had one so really couldn't say. Not conscious my ass, LaBerge supported that you are in his work!

And then the girl and I started to chat. So,

Hah and yea, needless to say I was RCing all over the place today

**StonedApe** · 08-27-2008 11:02 PM

I love it when people think I'm crazy. Because usually the people who think I'm crazy are crazier than me, they're just "normal". Normal people are the weirdest. It's the ultimate form of irony.

**Rai Saix** · 08-28-2008 02:32 AM

Agreed! Normalcy sucks!!! I asked my science teacher today if she had heard of it, as I wanted to see if it was better known in the scientific community. She didn't, and I didn't tell her what it was. As I didn't have the time. But I told her to google it, I'll ask her what she thinks tomorrow...

**LittleBuddy** · 08-29-2008 05:05 AM

meh. in my case, people just think im crazier

**Rai Saix** · 08-30-2008 07:49 PM

COOL!!!! My Drama I teacher is kinda "hippyish" (in her own words) and she knows ALL about lucid dreaming!!! She say's she'll help me with it, and we'll talk about it more on monday!!! My science teacher has yet to look it up...

**Timothy Paradox** · 08-30-2008 08:14 PM

Good thing that LD'ing is SCIENCE, not hippy new age crap.

lol.

**akira** · 09-02-2008 05:26 AM

All my friends think it's really cool, and trying it themselves. I mean.. who wouldn't want to do anything they could immagine?

**EEclips3** · 09-02-2008 05:38 AM

Noone i talk to seems interested >.< No matter how many benefits i include nor how many details i lapse, It's always a fail...

**StonedApe** · 09-02-2008 05:50 AM

Me too. At least for the most part. I've gotten 2 people intersted in it, but that was a while ago and neither of them will keep a dream journal no matter what I say, so they've both been pretty unsuccessful.
