      Losing my LD ability

      I have started to take an anti depressant and my LD's have been almost eliminated. I have had a sleep disorder where I sleep for 20 minutes at a time and was able to remember all my dreams. I was then able to remember all dream recalls and apply rc's to them. This became a hindrance to me because I just wanted sleep. I could even enter into wilds with little effort. I still have about 2 sleep induced lucid dreams a week which is great in my book. The problem is that my dad is suffering bad nightmare's and I'm trying to help him. I'm teaching him about reality checks to conquer the dream but he thinks I'm a little nuts. Any help about how teach a parent about LD when they think your crazy about admitting your ability?

      Don't call it an ability.

      Show him the science behind it all. Show studies and such.
      Bollocks.

      Not only that, but give him examples! Usually, I can't catch peoples attention until I mention that Lucid Dreaming can be as vivid as real life. Tell some stories that you see here on DV, or some of your own personal stories!

      I have learned to just not mention it to anybody, because normally they are not interested, and it makes them not really want to talk to you, because you talk about boring things. Yes, LDing is boring to other people. Probably just because they dont really know how it is, and how amazing it is. I guess youve gotta experience it.

      But anyways. The only time I WOULD mention it, is if a similar conversation comes up.
