Thread: Hi everyone!

Absolutely newbye says hello to everyone!
Uhmmm... here I am... a really skeptical person like me who tried to become lucid and never succeed!! Well, not completely true, I started some months ago, then had a nightmare as I was trying... I didn't understand if I was lucid or not, but it scared me to death and never tried it again... Thanks to my friend I decided to try again and face my fears. I'm not still sure what I have to face and what really mean being lucid... Also I'm kind of scared to sleep sometimes... due to bad experiences in my past I often have really bad nightmares... hope to solve... with your help...
Namaste...

Thanks for coming here my friend. I know you can do this if you believe in yourself strong enough. You should read through this forum and there is lots of people people who will guide you on your way.

You have become interesting in dreams and that's why I advised you to come here. Try to make a dream journal first is my advice. Set you alarm for wake up 1-2 hours before normal and say to yourself that you will dream and that you will remember then, then write them down when you wake up. Search for reality checks and find out what suits you best. You will get there, just tell yourself that you will!

Many thanks for the reply and the support. You know I'm new at all of this and this website is really huge to be scanned fastly as I'd wish to do. I have a lot of problems with my sleeping time. It seems I have no problem to fall asleep, but then often nightmares oppress me. I think I was able to be lucid once, but I was totally unable to move and react. I just relived a bad bad experience from my past, almost exactly as I lived at the time, and this is why I stopped the training. But I'm not stopping this time... Hope to make it.. you know... what does not kill me, makes me stronger!!!

Welcome to Dreamviews!

Lucid dreaming is nothing to be scared of. LD is a normal dream, in which your daytime memory is turned on, that is normally turned off when we sleep. So if your memory is on, you know you are dreaming, your body is safely in your bed asleep and nothing, no matter how scary, can hurt you. And since you know it's just a dream, you can change whatever you dreaming about. A scary monster into a cuddly cute bunny.

Well, I always know I'm dreaming. It's weird to say and few people ever believed me, but it's as I'm 'behind' every dream of mine. I mean, I dream, and there is 'me' in my dream, acting, talking, and thinking normally. But then there is another 'kind of me', aware that that is just a dream, watching at the dream as it was a movie. The problem is that, even if I see unlikely things happening in my dreams, and I often laugh at improbable facts or moves of mine, I CAN'T change the course of the dreams. I also have repetitive dreams, things happen in a row, always at the same way, always at the same time, and nothing ever change! And you can imagine that it's really scaring knowing that when I nightmare start you can't wake up and you are going to live it all without any possibility to escape! I read that becoming lucid can help to face sleeping problems and I would like to learn how.
Thanks for the attention.
Namaste
