I had my first LD since joining this site, using methods. I used to go in SP and have a few semi-lucid dreams but thats all I can do. In this dream I was in a very dark, stony,rocky, jagged island with black clouds. I saved a few people from the water and they were pretty beat up. I was semi-lucid cause I think I knew it was a dream but I couldn't control anything and didn't think to.

Then I went up to the top of the island, went around a side of a rock and entered into a darkly lit office, like at night (it looked like the show The Office but only the front part of it.) Then I became lucid, got a little excited ( like when you see a fight, that little burst of adrenaline) but I calmed it down and looked at my hands an rubbed them together to make it more vivid. I looked up and it was, then I got that burst again and the dream started to collapse. I rubbed my hands again but the dream collapsed and I lost consciousness.

This is a semi-lucid because I thought to rub my hands but didn't quite comprehend it was a dream or to do a RC. I just knew to rub my hands to make it clear.

So, how do I stop that burst of excitement? And how do I become fully lucid?
