Hey, I just thought i'd introduce myself and let ppl know my experiences so far with lucid dreams. My name is Oscar. I first found out about lucid dreaming about a year ago, and i read up on the different ways of inducing lucid dreams. I started keeping a dream journal, and within a few weeks i had my first lucid whilst attempting to WILD. I followed the WILD procedure I had read about and went through the first stages of the WILD, but fell asleep, then, whilst in the dream, i suddenly realised that i was dreaming, and imediately in the split second i thought about it, i woke up because of the excitement. It was the most amazing feeling ever, just knowing that training myself to recognise i was dreaming, had worked. I had never before had a lucid dream, although i had shared dreams with my younger brother when we were small and slept in the same room. In remember waking up one night from a nightmare and in that same second my brother awoke and i told him "jesus, i just had the weirdest dream" and he said "me too", so i told him the begining of my dream and he stoped me and finish it. I didnt find it strange though because its happened a few times, and we have even had the same thoughts at the same time, like starting to sing or hum the same song at the same time without any prompt. I stoped trying after my first time because of personal stuff, but im back, and here to learn and exchange experiences, so HI everyone, look foward to talking to you. Thanks
