Thread: An introduction, and a problem with lucid dreaming

Hello! I'm Springlock (Gen_Grievous was taken... or not allowed)

Before I get started I'd like you all to know if there are weird corrections in my typing it's because I am usually on mobile (iPod touch) and am upset I cannot edit my profile on mobile...

I'm not really new to lucid dreaming, but I have known about it for a while and have been attempting at it with no avail.

I got to this forum from a link in the description of one of Giz Edward's videos. I thought it may be helpful to join and discuss what might be going wrong?
For the last six months I have tried multiple times to achieve lucidity, but with no luck. Here's a list of things I have tried and their outcomes:

MILD:
-absolutely nothing.

FILD:
-I get deep into the HI (hypnagogic imagery) and just fall completely asleep.

WILD:
-This is the one I've come closest and once did work.
The dream was ten seconds long and, well, it was a fail. I woke up because I got too exited that I had finally gotten into a dream. I... havnt had such luck since.

(If Mzzkc could be directed to this post I would be honored. I have seen their posts on another forum post before I registered and they seem to know the most about lucid dreaming in the style I am attempting than anyone else I have seen. Thanks!)

(Yes I have been browsing the forum casually for a few hours before I registered)

So,
Cya next time.
