1. I dont know about anyone else, but most of the people in my life dont get LDing. When i try to tell them about it, there like....oh ok thats nice....i just feel so strongly about this!! They dont get alll the possibilities with this! ITS SAD! lol

ok number two

2. It seems to me that not many people have LDed before. I hear all sorts of articles saying that you can LD by just doing exercises and all that. But people I talk to tell me they have been working on this for years, and they have never LD before. I just want to know how possible LDing is? Can only few people do it? Should I even waist my time trying?

1. Yeah that happens. Most people don't see it as something all that amazing. Some people who have dreams that aren't all that real might just see it as like, imaginging doing something (like while awake). And when telling someone, it's pretty pointless to tell em if they don't have a significant amount of curiosity. I'm making generalizations here, but I don't think extroverted people would be too terribly interested. Actually, I've told two people like this and they've thought it was pretty rad. It's best to make em understand that it is like being in real life, but playing god. Anecdotes of your own dreams are pretty sweet too

2. LDing is super possible. The only reason it's not possible is when people tell themselves its not. Sure, some techniques don't work. For me, i can reality check often and dream journal a lot, but I get lazy. Anyone can do it. Anyone.

I know my situation is a little different them most people. I have found almost everyone I have talked to interested in some degree. A few people try to do it, most people will try a few times, and others think its cool but just don't have the time commitment to do it. I have relay had anyone jump up and down for excitement though. Well, My cousin is the only one who has, but that's it.

Again, I have not found this to be true. Most people have had an LD one time or another in their lives and remember ti as "that dream where they controlled stuff." If they have been working on this for years without ever having one, then they are probably just telling themselves that they cant do it. If you don't believe in it, you wont be able to have one. Its all in your head. And there are many methods and techniques to achieve LDing, some work for you, some don't. If you work hard, and experiment, you will definitely have LDs. Everybody can Lucid Dream, its as old and as natural as sex. never give up, In about a week or less you'll have your first LD and then you'll understand
