New to Site but Not Lucid Dreaming

Just wanted to say hello everyone. I've been having lucid dreams since I was a kid and in the recent years have been researching them and practicing various techniques.

It's very interesting hearing everyone's experiences and it's funny how many similarities there are and how many of the recommendations actually work.

I've had countless DILDs since I was a child (I can have several a week if I try) and have just recently been able to achieve WILDs (this is not easy - it took me a long while to find a technique that works and it doesn't always work).

Hey, :welcome: to DV! Always good to have an experienced member around.

Welcome!

It's nice to know that you can have many LD's in a week! If only I could :P

Don't be afaird to ask questions...they've probably been asked around here once already :)
People say some really weird stuff here...

The best way for me to obtain a DILD is to simply tell myself I'm going to have one. Additionally, I have to wake myself up at some point during the LD in order to remember it. Sometimes I go months without an LD but it is because I am not trying.

I'm just not motivated enough to do it...or maybe it's because I'm lazy? Either way I wish I would try to LD more...I must find my goal!

Lukin, I'm glad you decided to join us!
