the BIG "Hi, I'm new here!" topic, part 72

Just joining this site as the last community I was in kind of lacked what I was looking for. I hope to make friends on here and deepen my understanding of lucid dreaming farther. ~.~

Welcome to ld4all Noxy. I hope you find what you are looking for on ld4all. :spinning:

I looked at several lucid dream and astral travel web sites before settling on Ld4all. I lurked here for weeks before subscribing. The search function provided enough data to occupy my thinking without comment from me. It was not that I had nothing to say, but that there is too much. Also, I was uncertain how to answer the profile question “LD count.” An answer finally occurred to me and now it won’t wait. The best answer I can give is 1. In arriving at that answer I reviewed again and again in my memory a lifetime’s worth of dreams. It always came down to ‘I don’t know,’ which is little better than saying nothing. Looking at the question from a different perspective I have arrived at a positive answer. The number is 1 -but I cannot say with certainty that “I had” the lucid dream -or if it was elicited by another person. I am certain I have never repeated that type of dream, and yet it is a fact, an unexplained enigma. My next step therefore is to throw the matter out for public discussion.

Welcome to the forum jiva. Will you be posting that dream in the dream journal forum?

A lucid dream is a dream where you are aware that you are dreaming while in the dream. I had only had 3 very short lds before joining ld4all and that was over the expanse of 46 years :peek:

By the way don’t worry about posting in the wrong place, it only takes a moderator seconds to move a topic :wink:

Yes, I will; that’s a good idea. I have been following my dreams for a long time. I have read countless dreams by others. It is becoming clear to me (at least cognitively) that there is a distinct difference between common dreams and lucid dreams. I hope to separate the common dreams of my sleep consciousness from the signs of lucidity. In other words, I hope to avoid writing about nonsense in the dream journal, whatever it may signify. I don’t mean to be negative, just to be negative, but I have to say I am bored to death of story-telling.

Hi, I’m new here. Recently I had a lucid dream after a long period of disinterest in lucid dreaming, meaning I had sort of forgotten about it for a bit. I spontaneously became lucid a few days ago, however. I hope to learn a lot and have many more lucid dreams.

Welcome to ld4all Ryuka. Congrats on your lucid dream!

Hello! I’m new here… Sorta, have been here about a few days posting my dreams that span about a week. I have never had an issue remembering dreams, I just have to put in the effort to write them down… as writing them down and then typing them up and color-coding everything and editing all typos can take me anywhere from one to one and a half hours. I used to lucid dream very regularly, especially when I was doing more meditation and staying aware of the present type stuff. So yea, that’s it… Just hoping to connect more in the present moment and in my dreams.

Hello and :welcome: TheUniversalOne.

Congratulations on your LDing successes. Also don’t worry if you aren’t LDing as much as you used to, I am sure you can improve it (eventually… as it can take a while but do not give up).

Good luck!

Hey thanks! I am not too worried about it, I know it’s mostly contributed to the fact that I haven’t tried to actively practice it nor have I really done much focusing on the now, which I find I am having a huge issue with at the current moment :\ I’m not sure but back in high school I found it so easy to just be aware all the time and now it’s such a struggle. Ah well, baby steps!

Hello !

I was a lucid dreamer before but i kind of “lost my dreams”.
I just wanted to reconnect with this side of me, hoping that reading dream diaries and adventres would inspire mine to come back…
Wish me good luck ! :grin:

Hey all. I’ve been chatting on IRC for around a week and decided to join the forum as well.

To keep it short: I’ve been interested in Lucid Dreaming for a few years now, but only recently I started actively trying to get into it :smile:

Hello Sanja. Welcome to LD4all.
Reading the LD challenge topic may give you inspiration.
Good luck with quickly getting back into lding again.

Good luck :thumbs:

Hi!

Just recently got interested in LD while reading a article on Sleep paralysis.
Got so exited that i went out and bought Lucid Dreaming, Plain and Simple by Robert Waggoner.
Hoping it would help me become lucid, but so far no success (im still having major issues even remembering my dreams…).

But I’ve started a dreamjournal and its accually helping alot!
Im also trying to do daily realitychecks but I havent found anyone that sticks yet, (jumping around trying to levitate isnt really optimal as a plumber, the customer usually give you a strange look :rofl: )

Anyways, joined this community cuz i really liked it and im hoping it will help my chances on becoming lucid and remembering my dreams better! :happy:

Have a nice sunday everybody! Its almost monday! WOHO :puh:

I’m new here! I have been reading this forum for about four weeks now (from when I first started practice LD). I’m super greatful to this site who helped alot! :happy:
I’ve been keeping a DJ ofc, and it goes up and down with how much I can remember, but i’m practising dream recall alll the time… and oh, i’ve managed to get one LD allready (or was it a FLD :uh:?) I really dont know the difference, because I dont have anything to compare with yet. This was about two weeks ago, and I havent been close to even getting near another LD. But im patince! :om:

Hang on and keep on practising and you will get there :happy: I’m also new here and just started my journey to become lucid!

Sweet! Good luck to you mate!

But you better not have a LD before me… :lol:

Welcome, Moosebone and klardröm! :welcome:

hello everyone I am new here also, well at least I am newly active! I look forward to getting to know all of you and interacting and chatting with everyone. Sweet dreams

Thanks a lot, you too!

And welcome to LucidLeo :smile:
