I grew up thinking it was just dreaming, didn’t know anything was special about it, until I was telling my mom about a weird dream I have when I was young.
I don’t remember ever waking up because I’ve become lucid. But I’ve always been a deep sleeper, my mom would have conversations with me about my day when she got home off the evening shift. Just a few sentences but I’d never remember them.
I do remember having a LD as a child and even solving a recurring nightmare that way, but I’m only a natural with WILD. If I can get myself to the ‘vibrations and whooshing sound’ stage, I find I can actually amplify the sensations and get into a WILD quickly and reliably. Good thing too, because there’s something in me (maybe several things) that prevent me from keeping a DJ. WILD circumvents that.
no not at all lol
Three posts moved to the “What huge dreamsign have you missed lately” topic 
mmm… Not really, I haven’t had an LD yet but I feel like I’m getting better fast so I wouldn’t say I’m awful 
When I was little I used to have amazing dream recall but it faded, It’s slowly coming back as well So no I guess I’m not a natural 
I remember one time when I was a child, I made it a mission to recognize I was dreaming (I was mad that my dreams were always hazy.)
I actually got a lucid dream the next day after my mission, however as I found out I was dreaming I suddenly got pulled towards the ceiling. Never really thought about replicating it. Figures

Yes by all means I am a natural. I have been having Lucid Dreams since I was a young child. I’ve been able to fly, throw fire, make it rain, you name it! I just now, tonight learned that other people could do it also. I’ve knowninwas in dreams pretty much my entire life. I thought it was weird not being able to control your dreams, I guess I’m the weird one!
I remeber one time before I heard about lucid dreaming that I realized I was dreaming while dreaming of being in a restaurant and had sex with a waitress that was passing by… lol XD
While I’m not sure that I ever had lucid dreams as a child, I do know that I had excellent dream recall. I have always been able to remember my dreams. Also, as a small child, I had an issue with sleepwalking that was associated with my dreaming.
I also know that both my parents have had lucid dreams in the past, and are both very vivid dreamers. I don’t know if any of this is hereditary, but if it is, I most definitely have the genes.
I’m not a natural at the dreaming itself, but I’m a natural at controlling things within the dream.
I remember when I was a kid I had some LD s throughout the years. I had them but I didn’t have any idea if they had a name or anything. It was until I was around 14 years old that I realized the true potential of lucid dreaming and then after looking it up on the net I started with the techniques so I could get them regularly. So I guess I’m a natural even though I barely remember that time of my life.
I posted this somewhere else as well but I had a number of dreams when I was younger where I controlled what I did and I knew there would be no consequences. As I remember I didn’t go OH im dreaming but I guess indirectly I knew I was if that makes sense.
Those dreams always made me feel so free which is part of the reason why im here now.
Yes i would consider myself a natural. THe first lucid dreams i remember having were when i was 7 or 8 years old.
I had LOTS of natural lds and when i was a child aswell. But untill i knew about techniques to LD. I just lost it 
It’s a shame that I either didn’t have or can’t remember any lucid dreams when I was a child.
I do remember having some dreams when I was little, but that’s where the fun ends.
I only had one lucid dream so far, and I had to try really hard for it…
So no, I’m not a natural.
No, I didn’t have them as a child.
I’ve had more LDs than anyone I know, but I don’t think I’m a natural. It happens when it happens, and I don’t have a lot of say-so about it. And I go through very long stretches sometimes without having them at all.
I LD every night without an induction method. Mine is trigered or something.
… That just makes me jealous… but good for you 
I remember some nightmares I made when I was a child, in which I became lucid but it was very short 'cause it was like : “No, it’s too horrible ! It can’t be true ! I Know : it’s a nightmare ! So I can wake up whenever I want ! I have to wake up NOW !” And then I woke up. It happened 2 or 3 times as far as I can remember ; but I don’t consider myself as a “natural” at all.
And Shinice, you make me kind of jealous too by the way ^^
Its ok. Trust me Lucid is easy to get but difficult to stop. So theres no need to worry, you all will get it someday soon. Just make yourself think and imagine images in your mind. I have no methods to LD but will usually get full lucidness if I do that, but, no thanks it’ll jus make me more tired. You all can try it though.
I can’t believe some people are tired of being lucid 
I had maybe two or three LDs when I was six or seven but now i have to make real efforts to have one.
