I first learned that they had a name this weekend. Needless to say, I am very exited about exploring this much further.
As an interesting aside, within the last year I was awarded a BA in Psychology and not once did I hear of this. I hope to learn much from all of you.

How's it goin, man? Nice to have you around.
Yeah, it seems that from those of us here that are "naturals," our experiences began with becoming lucid in reaction to a nightmare. It wasn't until after highschool that I found out about "lucid dreaming" as something that could be done for fun and self-discovery. And as unfortunate as it is for you have not heard anything about it, throughout psychology, it's not too surprising. Damn shame though, really, that something so beneficial could be downlplayed and ignored to the point of near-nonexistence, culturally.
Anyway, welcome to DV. If there's anything we can do to help you out along the way, don't hesitate to ask.
