How long did it take for YOU to LD?

[audreyaussie]

just wondering...

[hellohihello]

first night i made an account. second night I knew i was dreaming tonight, nothin.

[JadedSapphire]

Been trying for months now...still no luck.

[Sotik]

Well depends on what you mean. I had many lucid dreams before I knew what lucid dreams even were. I had many dreams where I knew I was dreaming, however I never knew I could control myself or my dreams. Once I learned about lucid dreams though, I had one about a day or two later, then another a day after that. I guess I am one of the lucky ones who naturally have lucid dreams. However my recall could be a whole lot better. I have only gotten to the point where I can remember and record 3 dreams a night. However I can't vividly remember them

Umm, when I first heard about DV, I had one the night after lol But, alas, to no avail am I having any lately.

[eppy]

I guess a week. maybe a little less.

[Mezzanine]

three days after I made an account I have my first lucid. it wasn't very long, but when I woke up, I had the most excited feeling that I don't think I've ever felt before. I felt so accomplished. I look forward to going to sleep every night so I can have more and more. I've had four total in a month since I've joined. I'm just starting to get the hang of it.

7 months. I found DV in Feb of '06, had my 1st LD in Aug. '06, and then joined DV on my 15th birthday in Dec. '06.

Never still trying.. i think it's been 10 months with no success. The only thing i can say it has helped me with my recall and had some vibrations and HH here and there.

i was obsessively doing RC's and i mean OBSESSIVELY. and got one on the first night. althought it was dogy and lasted like 5 seconds it was still an LD.

I got the same deal as Sotik because I saw lots of lucid dreams a long before I knew they were called that or even scientifically studied. So very hard to answer. But once I found information about it, I have found more ways to achieve LDs and other nice things too

[insomniacjezz]

I'm one of those 'naturals' too...the sort of people who were lucid dreaming before they knew it was anything special or even had a name. I've only been playing around with the manipulation of dreams for a little more than two years now (that is, actually controlling the dream once I attained lucidity, instead of just allowing it to continue how it would or terminate it if it was a nightmare), but in that time I've learned how to fly and have even had a few shared dreams - if you choose to believe in that sort of thing.

I heard about LDs around august somewhere, tried really hard back then but never succeeded. Out of nothing i had my first LD at 31st of december 08

I had semi-lucids as a nipper. I started having some clear Lucids, before I even knew what they were called, when I was at college about 15 years ago. Then I found Laberges book. Since then its waxed and waned. I went through a couple of periods of keeping a DJ etc, the last time being 2003ish. This latest expedition it took about a week for my first lucid.
