Welcome, BossMan! Good to have you here. Your practice looks like it's already very well dialed in and you're right where you want to be. I wish that I had things this well organized when I was starting out! |

Hello everyone, I am still a beginner and have just started to have LD's on a consistent basis. My biggest problem right now is maintaining stability and having a dream last longer then 10m. I also work 6 days a week 10 hours a day so I don't get to sleep in to often! |

Thank you CanisLucidus, I actually based a lot of my technique based of your guide for DILD's so I have to give you the credit |

After enough looking I found the article I was looking for, incase others were interested I posted it here. |
|
Awesome, glad that it is working so well for you! Yes, falling asleep after WBTB is something that I had to work on at first. |
|
Thats right! If I remember correctly that's the same pool his body falls in at the end, I forgot about that. I guess I'm a bigger hip hop fan then a Scarface fan xD, honestly though I really do love Scarface the movie never fails in making me laugh. Tony Montana will forever be an icon. |
|
Okay, see what works for you! If a 30-minute WBTB tends to keep you awake for 2.5 hours, I would begin making minor adjustments until you find your sweet spot. |
|
Sigh another failure tonight! Bah! I had a big meeting in the morning though and I was honestly a bit worried about missing it because of an LD. No problem though, I can try again tonight and the day after is a weekend so I can sleep in!!! |
|
Yeah, man, no worries on that! There are just going to be nights where you know you need to get up early, you go to bed too tired, or just can't face doing a WBTB. It would have been challenging for you to properly focus on your LD attempt because of the meeting. And you want to be well-rested for those days where you've got the big meeting, the big presentation, the incredibly challenging technical problem to solve, etc. |
|
What are some examples of mental checks you like to do? Sometimes I try to set stuff on fire using my brain, not sure if this counts as a mental check. |
|
Heh. That sounds like a fun one. |
|
Yeah it is, thanks a bunch! |

Hey, BossMan! Yeah, thanks for putting the experience into words. That is pretty well described. I can appreciate how difficult that is to do, particularly since I'm about to try to fumble my way through a description of my own. |
|
Thanks CanisLucidus you have been a great help. |
|
Hey Boss! Sorry for the slow reply... the holidays are very busy for me and I don't always have the greatest net access. |
|
Thought I should post an update on my progress, recently my Lucid Dreamer pills from ADN came in. |

Welcome Bossman! |

Hey, BossMan! Congratulations on that first WILD! My first one was less than a month ago (also galantamine-assisted), and I also found it to be a very educational experience. I'm still overwhelmingly a DILD guy but WILD was a great experience. |
|
I just wish I didn't have so many damn noisy neighbors so I could of properly enjoyed the WILD, it lasted all of 5 seconds. But the experience of how the WILD started was pretty important for me to understand what people mean to fall asleep while awake, it makes perfect sense now. |
|
I agree. Experiencing WILD was very eye-opening. It was certainly similar to DEILD but I felt like I was being pulled on a much longer journey downward (if that makes sense.) Cool stuff. |
|
The movie was good enough for me to sit and clean 100 pills one by one using a flashlight to try and find any remaining glass shards. |
|
Hey Boss, sorry for missing your latest question there. |
