Thread: Need help with my LD research

I will conduct lucid dreaming research very soon, but before I do that, I need help for more experienced lucid dreamers (people who have 4+ LD/month). I need experiences which I will use to make statements for my survey. So, if you are experienced lucid dreamers, please answer the questions below. Feel free to include as many details as you like

• How do realize that you are dreaming? What causes you to do RC, i.e. is it something in your environment, your thoughts, actions you are preforming, etc?

From this question, I need all experiences that can help me to make distinction between lucid and non-lucid dreams, so if someone who hasn’t heard of lucid dreams completes the survey, I can tell from his/hers results whether or not that person is lucid dreamer.

• Can you give me some dream specific differences between lucid and non-lucid dreams? I would like to hear your experiences, since I already know theoretical difference between lucid and non-lucid dreams

• Are there any factors in the real world that influence your ability to become lucid (they may be related to you, to the environment, etc.)?

• Feel free to add something else if you find it important, every experience will be of use

Thanks in advance!
P.S. If you are not comfortable writing about this here, feel free to send me a PM
