joining the intro train

Hi all,
I'm new here. I stumbled on the site when I read about some potential spiritual benefits of LD. Since I've been here and have been reading the tutorials and forums, I've been having a blast. In the last three days I've significantly increased my dream recall. I'm working on RC's. One thing I can't figure out is what a DC is (dream companion?). It's used a lot on the forums. Perhaps I need to finish reading the tutorials.

For me, LDs have a very functional and very important use. I have always been an insomniac. And it wasn't always biological. For most of my life I"ve considered sleep to be a big waste of my time. Part of this was because I could never remember my dreams nor did I really try. For all I knew it was a big black hole of stimulation in my life and I'd much rather be experiencing things to being unconscious. I knew that not sleeping was probably taking years off of my life, but I didn't really care.

Some medicines I've taken in the past have enhanced the vividity of my dreams and I've had several lucid dreams in the past, but those were exceptional times. Of the few dreams I did remember, most were very strange and disturbing dreams involving death and sex and the mafia. It intrigues me, but now I feel like I can work towards better understanding those previous dreams and previous times. I really have hope that I can make dreamtime fun and that this can be a positive change in my life. Already I've been going to bed three hours earlier than usual (11pm instead of 2am).

Holding out for some more good news.
Thanks for the forum and the whole community!

Hello and welcome. DC's are Dream Characters. The are like bots in a computer game but much smarter... well, sometimes they can be dumb as anything but other times they can be smarter than your concious self. (Dream Characters are the people wandering around in your dreams) Some believe DC's to be other dreamers.

Heya and :welcome: to the forums. Yea like jerky said, they are Dream Characters, people in your dream. Enjoy your time on the forums. :lol:

Hey, and welcome to the forum! Here is an acronym list just in case you need it. I hope you can turn your dreams into something more positive, and I hope that you find everything you need while you are here. If you need anything, you can always ask :D

Thank you all for the warm welcome and information. My last few days have been frustrating. All I'm finding is that I know I do things on my to do list in my dreams. I'm finding myself expecting certain things to be done, and then realizing that I haven't actually done them yet. No more interesting dream memories.

I'm going to have to spend some more time on the tutorials and I will consider the adoption program. :)

i just wanted to ask,if i amagin a ninja,of something,will he know ho to fight?

I'm not 100% shure what "adoption program" is,but if i'm right,u shoden't do the adoption program yet,be patient,try some thexniques,if it doesn't work,try WILD and amagine seeing some guys feet takeing steps,and at each step bread in and on the next step bread out,keep your mind on that,and u will start hearing voices.......bla bla bla,next do what the WILD sais,if that doesn't work THEN try adoption program ;)
