Thread: when did you become lucid?

First night, but then a year after that.

Also the first night.

But I have had them as far back as I can remember, just rarely. Maybe 2 or 3 per year. Then I had one last December and started looking it up online. A few days later I started to get interested in ways of inducing them and tried to do it and had another lucid that night.

I've been having them occasionally since childhood, but after finding this site and actively trying, I had a DILD the first night. I think the first one is easy since your mind is so focused and excited on LDs in the beginning.

It took a few weeks for my first successful WILD though.

I saw an ad for a NovaDreamer back in 1998 when they were still being sold by the Lucidity Institute and I had a lucid dream the first time I wore it.

My first lucid happened after about 3 weeks of actually trying for them, right when I stopped trying, I had one. From there, they seemed to come once every couple weeks, and now usually around one - 3 per week, but this is after around 2+ years of having actually tried.

I first became aware of the concept of lucid dreaming from the best movie I have ever seen, "Waking Life." I had a few lucid dreams as a child, without trying. However, when I began to make serious LD attempts every night, I have had 18 in just under 3 months. They were not high-levels LDs until about a month in, though.

in the first three months i managed to have about four . But then i stopped putting the effort in and have not had one since. I started up my dream journal and am now actively trying again...so i plan to have another within the next thirty days

NovaDreamer?

I've never had a Lucid Dream.

I've been keeping a dream journal for 5 days so I'm not worried or mad about the fact that I have not become lucid yet. I'm improving my dream recall at the moment.

When I finished reading "Exploring the World of Lucid dreaming," I want to say it was a week or 2 after. I can't rememer, i want to say the next week after reading it.
