I have a question about lucid dreaming.

A lot of times (it seems immediately) right as I go to sleep during the day, just for a nap or whatever, for 10-20 minutes, I lucid dream the entire time. I'm not really sure if that's normal or whatever. I know it's awesome, but I kind of feel like a freak for being able to do it so easily. It almost seems like I lucid dream everytime I go to sleep to tell you the truth.

Also: I had a brain tumor when I was 15 years old and have the worst short-term memory ever. However My long-term memory is phenomenal.
I remember reading somewhere that good long-term memory is essential for lucid dreaming. I'm kind of weirded out by the whole thing regardless.

What are yall's views on this?

I believe we'd call that a WILD, or at least I would.

HOLY COW!

I wish I had a brain tumor!

No sorry, I know, it's not funny. I had a friend that had a brain tumor taken out.

That's crazy though man. I would kind of love that.

Can you just zonk out and not have a dream if you don't want to remember it on control?

Oh.. and, welcome to dreamviews mate! :banana:

:welcome:

You are what we would call a Natural. Naturals can have LDs without the use of an induction technique. Don't feel like a freak!! Feel proud!! :D

Also, your profile says you're in Savannah. I'm about an hour away from you visiting my grandma. :) If I pass through on my way home, I'll wave from the car!!! :D
