5 days of intense dedication=2 lucid dreams in one night

[Dreambo]

Last night was my first time ever lucid dreaming and it was incredible! Here's my story... So last Thursday after my friend had been telling about his lucid dreams decided it was something that I would want to do more than anything in the world so I spent the next few days doing nothing but scanning the forums here on DV and trying everything technique possible. Even though it had only been 4 nights of trying to have an ld (with some naps using the wild technique in the afternoons too) I just could not do it. I was doing rc's throughout the day also. Then I read somewhere about vitamin b6 making dream recall a lot more vivid so I bought a bottle of 100mg b6 pills and two before I went to bed took me from remembering 0 dreams a night to being able to tell lengthy stories about my dreams! So yesterday I bought the book Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Stephen LaBerge and read it a good 2 hours studying the techniques presented mainly the MILD technique. Upon going to bed I took 2 vitamin b6 pills an constantly told myself tht I was going to realize I was dreaming. So when my dream came around (I'm not going to type the whole thing cause it's fairly lengthy) I was in my bedroom and there was a side door that isn't normally there and before doing any kind of rc I knew it was a dream! So I pulled the skin on top of my hand for my rc and my skin was very elastic so there was no doubt I was dreaming. So I opened the door that isn't normally in my bedroom and it took me through this glass room like a greenhouse with many weird plants an I went through another door from there which led me to a stadium that was filled with my high school peers and I am now in college so there was no doubt I was dreaming. I was so excited that I was dreaming (but kept a poker face about it so the excitement didn't wake me) that I didn't get a chance to experiment with flying and whatnot but instead just explored the dream world a little. In the other dream tht I was lucid in I was disappearing and reappearing places while my mom was trying to look for me just to mess with her and that action is what caused me to realize I was dreaming. I wasn't in the greatest mood for the few days I was trying to have an lds because it was all I wanted and I couldn't get it but since I had two last night I woke up this morning feeling incredibly happy. I'm excited to explore the possibilities of lucid dreaming! Also if you're having problems with dream recall I'd suggest getting vitamin b6 because it worked for me and my friend who introduced me to lucid dreaming. Thanks for reading and happy dreaming!

(but kept a poker face about it so the excitement didn't wake me) That just made me rofl! Epic effort, if you ask me it wasn't only the vitamins you took. You seemed quite resolute to achieve lucidity, so you when you took that B6 pills you probably gave your brain a expectation of something happening: and it did! Congrats, your example should be read by many new lucid dreamers

I definitely think it was mainly my expectation of a lucid dream that allowed me to have one rather than the b6. I really had to believe and convince myself I was really going to have one. But I also believe that the b6 did help my dream recall. I'm not saying tht it gives ld's just something to make dreams a little more vivid(at least for me).

Congratulations. Keep that momentum going. Once your dream recall kicks up, it just starts snowballing. More recall leads to more memorable dreams, which, in turn, leads to better recall.

Thanks for the replies guys! Now that I've had my first lucid I'm like a billion times more excited about it and definitely plan on getting better!

Congrats For some people it takes much longer to get the initial lucid dream, but once you get the first few out of the way, it gets easier. Just keep being persistent!

Congrats on your first lucid. One of the things to look for in a dream is the feeling that you get when in a dream, it is one of the happiest you can get feelings. Good luck with your other tries. Also try the FID method, it is my personal one: http://www.dreamviews.com/f12/age-pe...nt-now-126570/
