I'm new to this website but not new to the idea of lucid dreaming. About a year ago I read about lucid dreaming, it interested me so I committed myself to try and have a lucid dream. First I tried basic methods like MILD, did reality checks, and kept a dream journal. No success whatsoever. The only thing that had any affect was the reality checks and even then they did not work because when I did them in a dream nothing special would happen... So then I saw a tutorial on the WILD induction method. I thought it would be easy for me since I can sit still for long periods of time, and it was easy for me. I did successfully have a lucid dream which consisted of me throwing root beer at my father while 20 feet off the ground in my grandmothers neighborhood. As you would expect I was very happy that I had my first lucid dream, so I tried again the next night. Unfortunately I had no success this time. After about 15 minutes of lying there I began to get REALLY bad itches all over my body, I tried to bear them but I just couldn't take it any longer. I tried a few more nights but with the same results... eventually I gave up.

So now I've decided to give it another shot. So if anyone had some tips from experience (preferably with the WILD method) that would be great!

P.S. I have no clue how to change my profile picture so if someone could tell me how that would be great.
