Thread: How did you first start realising your dreaming?

Have you been performing reality checks in real life? And for how long? It'll take a couple weeks to a couple months before reality checking behavior leaks into your dreams.

I guess my weirdest lucid dream would be the one where I found a laboratory behind my shower curtain. . .

Cooool.

For some reason, I always become lucid spontaneously. I don't see anything in particular that makes me think "I'M DREAMING!", I just come out of nowhere with that conclusion, and then only in a couple doing RC's. Which is pretty nice, but I'd get more LD's if I was triggered by things. *shrug*

Ehh, my weirdest lucid dream...the one where I tried to summon a man and got a robot instead, and it wanted to self-destruct. D:

by random accident. It was over 4 years ago! I was having a dream about black cats trying to kill me, and they were coming through the crack in the bottom of the door. I thought this was strange and told myself this has to be a dream. I realized that fact, and kept telling myself to wake up. I also kept punching myself in the head (inside my dream) to try to wake myself up. I believe when I awoke I may even have hit myself in the head once, not quite sure lol

Funny... my first lucid (which lasted a few seconds so I don't count it) was about these giant tigers trying to kill me.

My first LD was this morning And i realised i was dreaming by being able to fly. But i was kind of half lucid before that somehow. Maybe i was close to the end of a REM cycle, but i don't know much about these things tho.

Yeah, it seems that for almost every dream, I seem to be partially lucid. Only in the sense that if it goes sour I have the ability to wake myself up, yet it is a different thing all together to bring that awareness into the dream.

And congrats on your first lucid, Xegar.
