Thread: Hey guys

Welcome SuperDreamer!

I know the feeling, the most awesome lucid dream adventure in the world doesn't mean anything to the one you are explaining it to, unless they really understand how it's like.
And some people doesn't even believe it is possible. So yeah this forum is a really great place to share the joy of this nightly hobby of ours.

One thing I want to mention about lucid dream count though.

Don't see it like that and by the way just a personal advice from me, don't count them either. It makes the process of lucid dreaming look long and difficult.

If you want you can look back and think negative thoughts like "Oh I have had 0 lucid dreams". Or you can look forward and realize that there is no limits at all.

And besides there is also a problem of defining what counts as one lucid dream and a dream at all for that matter, so I can say that I one night have 7 lucid moments or lucid dreams, but I can also say that I had 2. But if counting your dreams motivates you etc. then you should of course continue doing it, in whatever way that you are comfortable with.

I hope you enjoy your stay and have awesome dreams. Remember to always ask if there is something you wonder about, or if you just want to discuss.

Sweet dreams!

I had a time where I was just laying in bed and my wife asked me a question. I answered and she said nothing like she hadn't heard me. I then heard someone else answer and she replied. I sat up and saw myself. He was smiling at me and I grabbed him and through him (me) to the ground. I then realize that I had been trying to DEILD. So I just got up and walked outside.

That's crazy, the dream I had was I was looking in a mirror and I knew I was looking at my soul; it was a bright colorful blob. I looked in the corner of the mirror and I saw myself, then as I turned around it just stared at me. I ran into another bathroom, one after another and around every corner I would see this other me. It was an overwelming feeling of fear. I too had a dream of looking at myself, except in dreams when I see myself sleeping I get that overwelming sense of fear. It's something I hope to get over from LDing.

Yeah. I think that the control you can have in LD s can help conquer fears a lot.
