Whats up everybody! I am brand new to this entire idea/concept of LD'ing i accidently found this site as i was trying to find information for a research paper i have to do for biology(which i chose to do about dreams). After finding this sight and reading about it only for a few mins i was giddy about the idea that it is possible to control dreams, i had always talked about this with my freinds and how cool it would be if you could do so placing ur self in a matrix like environment. So i guess my first question is how many of the people on here learned this skill from scratch? Ive notice a lot of people mentioning how they had already had these LD experiences before coming to this site or before tyring to master them. I have never had this experience atleast not that i remember, i remember my dreams fairly well when i try to( if i give any thought to what i was dreaming about) and i have already started a DJ (only one night so far i just barely found this sight yesterday) and recorded some of my dreams from last night. So i am curious as to how hard it was for people starting from scratch to learn this and about how long it took them, so i have an idea what i am in for so that way if i don't get it right away i won't be discouraged. Thanks for any your answers or any general adivce to a newbie!
