Thread: Used to be able to LD.

First off, I would like to say welcome to DV. Second off, the answer is yes. LDing is just like anything else you do, if you dont do something for awhile you tend to get "rusty" at it but once you get back into trying, It could come back to you.

Well hope you have a good time here

Welcome to the forum!

Of course it's possible to learn how to LD again! Lots of people seem to have the ability as a child, then start to lose it when they get older. I think it has to do with being more skeptical and closed-mindedness as we age.

There should be some helpful links in the PM I sent you - the tutorials are great. And if you're interested in books, you should check out Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by Stephen LaBerge - I guarentee this book will help you become lucid again.

So try some different techniques and let us know how you're doing! Feel free to post any questions or experiences. Good luck and have fun!

Yeah, it should be possible for you to get back into lucid dreaming. A lot of people lucid dream in their childhood and want lto learn how again.

There's a nice, friendly atmosphere here, so welcome. Be sure to check out the tutorials section and remember anyone here would be more then happy to help is you have any questions.

Sweet dreams.

Thanks .

I've been very tired lately, I can't remember any of my dreams anymore and I've been feeling depressed. Would these have any effects on being able to Lucid Dream?

Absolutely. Lack of sleep, stress, and depression will all have negative effects on your ability to recall dreams, or to become lucid.

But, once you sort out those problems, you should be able to learn to have lucid dreams again. It may take a little work, but since you already know what to expect, you've won half the battle.
