my first lucid dream was a week ago and the way i became lucid was when i jumped off a staircase and thought to myself "wait im falling to slow,shit im dreaming!" and it only lasted a minute far cry 30-40 minutes.
how long did it take you ( experienced lucid dreamers) to start being lucid for more than 10 minutes and start to have a little fun with it? laying face down in a dream and not moving isnt fun but its gota get alot better.
I'd say that by my third LD they were lasting longer than 10 minutes.Quote:

My first one was probably over ten minutes, and I had some control. I shrank a chair a little bit, I changed my grandmas pool into different shapes, and I think I changed it from day to night then back to day, but that could have been a different one.
Don't worry you probably were just exited for your first time, keep trying.
My first one was long as hell, but after that they were only a few seconds. Just experience holding onto your dreams. After about twenty I started to have more stable dreams and now I can stay in them for a really long time if I choose.
also, those really long dreams you read in the journals, are probably all WILDs.
Mine are still fairly short but I can get a few a night, I tend to drift in and out of dream scenes. The longest for me (going on how long I thought it was while inside the dream) was I suppose about 10 minutes.
I'm not even sure if my lucid dreams exceed ten minutes. Some seem very long but in reality were very short.
I had one that felt as if it lasted maybe half an hour.
The DJ announced that a certain piece of mucic, I loved, would play after the commerical break. I crashed out during the commercial and 'woke up' lucid in my bedroom.
All through this dream I could hear the music. I woke up as soon as the music stopped. The announcer named the music and it's composer. I'd lucid dreamed all through that bit of music.
I checked online how long the piece was and it was only about 3+ minutes. So the dream was only about 3 minutes long thought it felt like half an hour.
I guess, after all that babbling what I meant to say is... I don't know how long my lucid dreams really are. I'm betting they all are rather short, probably 5 minutes or less.
my first lucid dream was about 10 min long. Well now that i think of it, almost all my lucid dreams feel about 10-15 min long on average. Ive had some shorter ones, and some longer ones. But on average, they're 10 min long.
when i had my 1st(i only had 1)lucid dream, i woke up before i can do something..
