Thread: Introduction & first post

Hi everyone! Im very new to lucid dreaming (I discovered it 3 days ago from a link in DeviantArt) and, well I have had only one lucid dream in my life (i think) and it was something like walking on the pavement in front of my school where i realized i was dreaming and woke up. It was 2 years ago though.

Is there a quickstart to lucid dreaming? I tried listening to some weird 10 minute beep or so in the first day. All it did was nothing. On the second day I made an actual binaural beat which i listened when i went to bed (it was 3 hours long and 491 MB, my mobile has still that in it). All it did is woke me up in the middle of the night where i wrote up my dream into the journal for the very first time. Then i replayed the sound thing again and sleeped on, but i couldn't get sleep. I was really surprised though that when i got sick of the sound it was playing for like 60 minutes! It felt for like 10 minutes actually. Then i turned the sound off and slept on. In the morning i wrote up the second dream. And the third time, which was the night of today i tried WBTB and WILD together. I went to bed 1:00 and woke up at 5:00, stayed up for 10 minutes and went to bed again. I was lying on my back and just thinking about dreaming. I even counted the 1. Im dreaming 2. Im dreaming 3. Im dreaming etc. (in my mother language of course). But after 45 minutes nothing had really happened except some sound which im afraid were real so i just got tired and turned myself and slept. I saw like 3 dreams in total this night but i only remembered one because i didn't write up the dream when i woke up immideatly, so i only rememebered the one i saw the very last. And from even that i remembered a tiny bit. Then i woke up and thats all. No lucid dreams yet . Also that day before that night i did a lot of reality checks (i checked the time on my mobile loads of times), but it didnt help.

And i also have a question: if lucid dreams are so extremely good, then why you even want to wake up from it? Or it is forced like i can see from posts?

Help me to lucid dream please.
