Thread: Hello! Lucid dreamer signing in

Hey, a fellow Norwegian! There aren't that many of us here on Dream Views, I think.

You are amazingly lucky to be lucid in all your dreams. Most people have to work on it. I too used lucidity to escape nightmares when I was a kid, and I've talked with others here and they've said the same thing, so I think it may be pretty common. In my case though, it meant that my moments of lucidity were never very long lasting.

Hei!

Actually, I've read that only a small fraction of all people are natural lucid dreamers, though I'm curious about actual statitics. Even when I was a kid, lucid dream and nightmares could last for a while. I specifially recall dreaming about befriending a vampire on a train. He was trying to attack me, and as I knew he wasn't real, I asked him to become my friend. He accepted it.

Hei!

I don't know if you've read "Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming" by Stephen LaBerge, but there is a chapter in that book that explains how to use lucidity to deal with nightmares. What you are describing here is exactly the right way to do it. In my case I would become lucid and then make myself wake up, which is exactly how you're not supposed to do it.

I have to read that book! Where did you get a hold of it?

On Amazon. Many people consider it the bible of lucid dreaming, and it's not very difficult to come by. And yes, you definitely have to read it.

What's up, Line? Always nice to have another natural around.
Can't wait to hear some of your experiences! If you have any questions, about LDing or the forum in general, don't hesitate to ask.

Cya.

Thor, I'm going to order it.

Thanks, Oneironaut! I have already shared some around on the forums, just see replies I've made.

I found this site an hour ago or so, and I love it here! I feel at home here.

And I'm trying hard not to spam. There is so much stuff to post and reply to!
