I've been a lucid dreamer for about 5-6 years now. I learned about it from my mom, who is a psychologist and mentioned lucid dreaming a few times. She gave me one or two tips, and I just went from there. It took a long time but eventually I was lucid dreaming every night and I still do to this day.

I'm very good with dream control. At this point, I'm wondering about what I should be doing next. In the last few years, I've learned a lot about astral travel, which has helped enormously in explaining the OBE's I've had.

The reason I joined was actually the lucid tasks of the month. I haven't put myself to the test in a long time and I think it would be really fun to systematically test and record my dream control (other than just a dream journal, which I already do).

It's really hard to find other lucid dreamers, even on lucid dreaming forums. So I hope I meet lots of other LDers and I hope we can become friends.
