Thread: New and introducing..

you have come to a wonderful place there is never a lack of people to talk to on the subject of LDing. If you need any help just ask.

Hi logicphixion

Well you are on the right track and Welcome to Dreamviews..

Study psychology huh? Intersting I've always believed that you can incorporate the study of psychology along with dreaming, and the book by Stephen Lebarge is wonderful a great read for sure. Feel free to look around the site and check out the threads here you're going to find some very helpful information. If you have any questions at all PM one of the Dream Guides they have plenty of knowledge and will love to help you on your way into Lucid Dreaming. Have you had any in the past or any close ones that you can think of? If so please tell.. See ya around

Oh bye the way your Name Kicks Serious Ass!

Welcome to the forum

OH HI there! Frist off, Welcome to Dreamviews!!!! There are so many people here who are intereted in dreams ( this is a LDing site of corse haha) and the people here are amazing. Are you from the boston area? I am, and one of my friends is goign to BU next year.

Thanks. I don't think I can recall ever having a truly lucid dream, but I believe I've had several half-lucid dreams where I fly as the method by which I achieve flight in dreams is deciding i dont want to come back down to the ground and jumping in mid-air to boost myself further up, so I'd guess that kind of decision is at least semi-conscious. Even more so in a recent dream I was being chased by something or thought I was and at the critical moment i decided i needed to start flying up into the trees to escape and then on my command i started to soar up, but then I woke up. I also remember very recently I became aware I was dreaming, but at that instant I woke up. I'm not sure if it is a trend for me to wake up when I realize I'm in a dream, most of the time it's because the dream might be a tad bit scary and I also was never looking to achieve ludicity at the time either. Despite not really having any experience I seem to sense it within more of a grasp than previously, not sure to describe exactly why I feel that though.

soemtimes that happens in alucid dream, you wake up when you realise you are dreaming, particularly if you are new to it...i remember when i first started, it could get very annoying...
i seem to have got better though...my last lucid happened through a nightmare, and i remember concentrating on the dreamscape, but in the end, i was so terrified i decided the best thing to do would be to get the hell out of there!
That's happened once before, that i can recall...
I was climbing a ladder, going to give my brother a piece of paper with instructions on it, and i became convinced there was a terrorist at the top, with a gun. So i woke up!
And by the way, welcome to the board!
