Hi, I just signed up for this forum.
My interest in LDs was sparked just 2 nights ago out of nowhere...I was bored, and my friend was talking about reading an article about some band where a member had constant nightmares but learned to have LDs to conquer it.

I know I have dreams every night, but I only remember specific scenes and/or feelings from them, and I can almost never control anything I do in my dreams. Is that normal?

As for LDs, I'm pretty sure I had them when I was younger, I just never really thought about them til now. I do remember one very clearly.
When I was younger, I was sleeping on the couch and woke up within my dream and just knew that I was in a dream. I walked around my house and it was empty, and I felt bored and tried to wake up.
But I couldn't.
I remember screaming "WAKE UP!!" for like a long time before I actually did.

Anyway, I hope I can learn to have LDs as much as I want through talking to people here.
