New person thread about me (Hi).

Thanks, guys. Already checked out the tutorial section, and it seems like there's a lot of good tips in there. And I'll try to think positive thoughts (does this sound like a self-help class, or what?). One thing though: I was writing down my dreams from last night earlier today, and suddenly three old dreams popped into my head (like a year old or so), that I don't think I've ever remembered for more than an hour, if that, before. Is this a normal side effect of better dream recall? As in, it works retroactively as well? 'Cause that felt sort of great.

I guess so, yes.

WILD is by far the hardest induction technique, you should probably have a few regular lucid dreams first. DILDs are the easiest, but DEILDs are nice too. Every so often I have recall months or even years later, it's nothing out of the ordinary.

Update: I just woke up from what may or may not have been a lucid dream. I got this idea in my dream to check if I could put my finger through the wall, and it worked. I looked at my hands, which were all chubby and pulsating, and decide I should try to fly. Then I decide to tell my brother instead (who also knows about lucid dreams and all that jazz), and forget about trying to control anything. I lose lucidity, and go on dreaming normally for a little while. Now, when I think back at this it doesn't feel all that different from a normal non-lucid dream, so I'm torn between thinking it's my first LD, or just my mind dreaming about an LD and going through the motions (RCing, looking at hands etc). Anyone?
