a few points

im new. i just wanted to ask a few questions. 1st off im not new to lucid dreaming i just never new wat it was called till recently now i find this sight and i see something new. what is a wild? 2nd when not lucid sometimes when im dreaming i dont veiw the dream through my eyes i kind of look at my self from the 3rd person iv asked all my mates and none of them do this has any1 done this. and finaly iv found something out recently. after spliting with a gf a few months back and started sleeping alone i whould not dream (or recall them) for days on end but as soon as id sleep with someone i whould have the most vivid lucid dreams can anyone shed some light on being with someone in bed can help lucid dreaming it seems to work for me. or maybe sex helps?

:welcome: It is always nice to have another natural lucid dreamer (LDer) on Dream Views! I had LDs for years and never knew they were anything special. I thought everyone had them!

A WILD is a "Wake Initaited Lucid Dream." It is a LD were the dreamer transitions from awake to alseep and dreaming without loosing consciousness. You can find info on all the acronyms in the sticky post at the top of the "Tutorials" section.

Many people have dreams in 3rd person view from time to time. I think they are especially cool because I have a really easy time changing things in the dream from 3rd person view.

I'm not sure why sleeping with someone in the same bed would affect your dream recall so much. Perhaps they wake you during the night, briefly, and you don't notice these wakings. Waking during the night really helps my recal, so just a guess.

Some people argue that sex is bad for dream recall and LDs, but I've never found this to be true.

If you need anything feel free to PM me with your questions!

cool thanks for explaining the wild so well i now know i do this i work as a drivers mate and allways wild when on long journys i know im wilding becouse i am still alert to everything my mate is doing also i never see myself in the 3rd person while lucid i posted a reply to a topic called dont try this or something about looking in mirrors while lucid if u saw urself in the 3rd person while lucid chould maybe hold some intresting experiance i will hope to do this in the futer once again thanks for ur comments

Mirrors can be a lot of fun to play with in LDs. A while ago one of the LD tasks of the month was to pull your reflection out of a mirror. It turned out to be really cool.
