I have been reading about lucid dreaming in DreamViews for several days, so i have registered

I am having trouble with several things, including how to have a WILD.

I have tried the WBTB technique for WILDing and napping and i STILL cant get into SP.

I sit there for hours laying still and sometimes I see swirly circles in my eyes, and I keep thinking its just my imagination, I am not anywhere near SP... I think so negative!!!

Also, I have trouble with dream recall, i have only recorded 2 dreams in the 5 days i have had a DJ.

I have had one LD so far, on my first day of reading about LD's but i woke myself up....

Well you came to the right place

Have you checked out our Tutorials section? It's pretty well organized so I think you shouldn't have a problem.

So it sounds like you may be doing this too early. WILD's are usually ment to be done within a certain amount of time after waking up. How are you doing this?

Oh and welcome to the Community

Well I have read the tutorials over and over lol, maybe WILDing is just not for me.

My first and only lucid was a DILD - no RC just realised "hey this doesnt look real... im dreaming!" and unfortunately it was at the end of the dream so was only lucid for about 2 seconds, and i tried dreamspinning but it didnt work

I tried some quizzes and they said I was recommended to try and do MILD's which i have no clue about..

And also, I came from avatar-forums.com like a lot of newcomers...

Had another non-lucid damn it!!!

Tried to WILD after a few hours sleep - got hallucinations but couldnt get into SP.. afterwards gave me a headache damn it

Don't worry about it. Getting lucid for the first time for most people ends right after they find out they're dreaming.

Just keep practicing.

my non-lucid was a very nice recall (recalled most of it, not just a little bit) and vivid

Well, I had one recently, my first one actually...
I woke up, 7:30 watched TV for about 20 minutes... Layed down and went back to sleep, forgetting, somehow, all about dreams and WILDs etc....

Maybe you need a routine? Or maybe because you were thinking about the dream, you made it impossible?
