      Hello out there

      Hello there, I just found this forum the other day and thought, why not join. I have been having LD's for sometime now. I haven't been able to have them at will though. They sort of come and go. Some of them I can recall with great detail. Recently, like last week, I began seeing images of people or places for a second or two and then I have to open my eyes. I open my eyes becomes its kinda of scary I guess because its new to me and no I don't use drugs or have any psychological ailments. It happens when I am relaxed and close my eyes but not yet asleep. Idk its weird. I do believe there is untapped abilities with the mind that most people don't know how utilize.
      I hope to read some interesting things here.

      Hi Nick, welcome to Dreamviews!

      I'm not sure, but it sounds like what you are describing are known around here as hypnogagic hallucinations. They tend to happen when we lay down to go to bed and we're just beginning to fall asleep, or when we're very relaxed. They can be visual, auditory, tactile, ect. A lot of times when you're falling asleep, they'll make you snap back awake.

      It's pretty cool that you're having some lucids already. A lot of people here might be jealous! I think that if you start a dream journal (if you don't have one already) and try some of the techniques like MILD, you'll probably be lucid dreaming at will in no time!

      yea it's hypnogagic hallucinations. Most of the time we lose conciousness before they occur. But if you stay concious during them it's a good thing because then you can step into a lucid dream (wild method).
