Thread: Hello

When ever I put an alarm to wake me up at night for lucid dreaming I usualy wake up a minuite or so before the alarm goes off. Its because your body it antisipating it and we all have amazingly acurate biological clocks. You might find its better to not even use an alarm clock because just wanting to wake up after your REM periods might work. It does for me.

Hey madmonkey,

I'm going to try it once more with an alarm tonight.. If I wake up before the alarm i'll try without a alarm tomorrow night. Its actually quite funny because when I went to school I never used an alarm and always woke myself up before school time and never came to late.

Thanks for the advice, its appricated!

Yeah forsure, I always wake up right before it. If someone sets an alarm, I never use one myself/.
The problem with this that I find, is I often wake up on the hour every hour and don't get a proper sleep.
But it pays off because it helps with remembering dreams to a point (sometimes makes it harder)
but also gives a variety of dreams if I don't just decide to go back into the same one.

I'm always amazed by the internal clock. I never know what time it is when I'm awake.
Also, sometimes I'll check a clock in a dream before waking myself up and it's usually really close if not exactly the right time when I wake up. That almost freaks me out a bit.

I have to go do some stuff, but I'm going to search for a time thread when I come back. This has always been a big topic of interest to me.

Dont worry about it, it happens!

Mud, thanks for the reply, yesterday evening I tryed it without a alarm, because I was to tired to actually set it. I remember waking up at 6:19 and didnt want to try to WILD because I was quite tired, just because I missed atleast 10 hours of sleep in 2 days because of WILD attempts. Bad thing is indeed, I cant remember a single dream.. arrgh!

Gonna try without a alarm tonight again, if I dont remember any dreams the next morning again i'm gonna try it with alarm and see what happens then.

Hope its understandable, lol.
