Thread: What was your first Lucid experience like?

That does sound scary.

For me, I was at my friend's house in the dream. I just realised I was dreaming with no apparent trigger. I walked around and just experienced what it felt like to be in a dream (to be honest, I was a bit in awe that I was actually walking around whilst being asleep). I tried not to get too excited incase I woke up.

I tried to run through a door. It didn't work though because I didn't think I would be able to do it at the time. After that I made myself wake up so I could write it down (I didn't want it to be too long incase I forgot it).

My first lucid experience was when I was on a school camp a few years ago.

I woke up in my tent, but it was too early to get up to relaxed a bit. Drifted back to sleep, and had a dream I was on top of a building. I realised I was dreaming, and decided I'd try and fly, jumped off the building, flew into the air.

Woke up.

Short lived, but still good.

Im not sure if this is a LD butthis is it. what I can remember anyways.
when I was younger I was into
these things called skannerz which were only red, blue, and green.
well In my dream I was at my house with my two friends and we found three orange ones and we thought it was the coolest thing and I remember saying to myself (in my dream) "Man. too bad this is just a dream" and thats all I can remember.

But anyways. I recently just got hardcore into what lucid dreaming and stuff about dreams, and by recently I mean yesterday. so last night I looked up a bunch of things on Lucid dreaming and found out all the reality checks and the
one I thought would be the easiest is to look at my hands.
So last night as I was going to sleep I kept repeating to myself "am I dreaming?".
Then I guess I fell asleep and I remember looking at my hands while I was asleep. the thing was though, is that I had read that when you look at your hands while sleeping, you see that you have more than 5 fingers on each hand but when I looked while I was sleeping my hands were REALLY blurry.
but thats all I can remember. =/ and i blame my alarm clock.

so is that Lucid dreaming?

Thanks for replying. Although I do hate you for having your first Lucid experience like less than a day after you started.

I think I remember them skannerz things. Is it them things where you scan a bar-code and then it come up with some weird creature or something like that?
