      Just wanted to say hello

      Hi, mcguinnessdr here, just wanting to introduce myself.
      I've looked into lucid dreaming before, but didn't do much about, then a few days ago I decided to look into it again and found this site. I'm mostly interested in WILDing, since it seems like the most effective way to LD. I've had one successful wild, with about 7 failed attempts. So, just wanted to say hi.

      Yeas Lucid dreaming is amazing! But dont be tricked into believeing that WILD is more reliable and realistic. MILD and DILD work just as good as WILD. Even the man who basically proved lucid dreaming (Dr. Stephan laberge) uses the MILD technique to get him to have lucod dreams at will!

      Thanks for the welcome. It just seems like with dild and mild, you're leaving alot up to chance, where as with wild it seem's like you have more control. This is just my opinion from reading on the internet, since I don't have enough experience to say for my self.

      Think this way. If i put that i had a non-lucid dream and i have ben working on the DILD method. You would probably think "oh his DILD attempts failed last night." But thats because i failed to mention that the night before i tried WILD instead of DILD.

      Now if i posted that i had a WILD the night before then you would read the positiveness then you would just think that i had a WILD.

      Also you still need to sleep for WILD so if you dont fall asleep conscious then basically the nights attempts are over for the night.

      Yeah, I understand what your saying. I guess they all have different advantages and disadvantages.

      Yes they do, and im not saying to stop trying WILD im just trying to make a point that there isnt really a technique that is the best except for the technique that works for YOU.

      Yeah, never rule out a technique, because my first lucid was a WILD. But my other four have been DILD. When I started here I was most attracted to WILD, but with more experience I realised that DILD is the one that will get me lucids until I get more advanced

      I must say if you have already had 1 WILD, out of 7 attempts I personally think that is quite impressive for a beginner, so well done!
