unless you already have had SP naturally or are very prone to it I would say no |

I am REALLY scared of getting SP. Not just scared, scared enough to want to quit trying to LD and scared enough to not want to sleep at all. I've been flicking through LD forums and SP is commonly mentioned, and I was wondering if LDing increases the chances of SP? |

TAKE DV members advice with caution! some have had zero or 1-2 LD's yet act like gurus
TOTAL LD's (almost all DILD/MILD) =160!!
new goals: have more LD's than Shift[X]
10-15min LD [ X] Article: A day in the life of an LD-er
the "Mind V.S. Body" Induction technique
Everyman 2 LD's/ sleep schedule progress
That's good to know - I just panicked b/c my dad used to see all sorts of crazy shit at night when he was a kid (he's probably just insane tho lmao) and my mum mentioned that she'd had them before, and saw horrible things. |

You get SP every night, it's just when you're conscious through it that you experience such things. |

I'm not trying to scare you, but in my case i've had more frequent sp. Not from trying to lucid dream exactly, but more specifically from trying the WILD technique frequently. Ever since i have been trying to WILD frequently, i've been getting sp a lot more frequently. Sometimes the sp comes because i'm trying to WILD, but sometimes it occurs when i'm not making a conscious effort to WILD. But there is no reason to be scared of sp. I've had a couple of scary experiences, but i'm better off from having them. Now that i know what to expect, even the "scary" experiences are kind of fun. Also, just like TomSnare said; if i think positively about the experience, it can be quite enjoyable. In my opinion, sp is a very calming and fun experience. |

I have experienced full blown, "Holy shit, what the fuck is going on," SP only once before, after waking up from a LD. And this was after I had been LDing for awhile. From my experience, I would say that LDing does in fact increase your chances of experiencing legit, hardcore, SP, albeit, only slightly. |
