Lucid dreaming -

I have only been able to achieve it by accident.

What's your technique for achieving that shit, if I can ask?

Look up the "wake back to bed" technique. It's supposed to work well for many people. Personally, I've found the whole "eating spicy food at night before bed" thing helps, though some people get nightmares from it.

I think I saw a video talking that had a bit on wanting to lucid dream and a way to do it is to keep a journal and write down what happened in your dreams. I don't know if it's effective or not but it has worked for some.

Lucid dreams are fun. I get where I want to go by reading something. Everything I read in my dreams has a specific sentence on it, and it reminds me that I'm dreaming. Then, I'm free to go wherever I want in the museum/city Also, it's easier to achieve the end of the night than the beginning. After you've woken up a few times.

I've been doing it since I was young. Sort of gained the ability to replay or rewind scenes for different outcomes. Usually famous people or fictional characters show up in my dreams to hang out. A large chunk of them are based in mall-like areas.

I try to use WBTB but it rarely works. Today it failed. I get lucid dreams when I don't try which is annoying because it doesnt happen as often as I'd like.

I've always been able to do that but those dreams arent as lucid as the ones ive managed to induce. The rewinding is something I do more based on feel rather than lucidity (if I dont like wjat is happenig in a dream I instinctly rewind and change things).

Got into it completely by accident as a kid (long story, will only get into it if anyone cares.)

I sometimes still do it when I know I'm in danger in my dreams but otherwise I just leave it on autopilot

I attempted to achieve it, back in middle school, but I only ended up trying for maybe a month or so. A few years ago, I tried it again, and kept my dream journal going for about eight or nine months, I believe.

My recall got super good (like, multiple pages every morning), but in all that time, I never once had a lucid dream. I tried all sorts of induction techniques, supplements, and the like, but nothing worked. After this, I just gave it up, since it ended up being more trouble than it was worth.

I also attempted astral projection for three or four months, I think, but that didn't yield any results, either.

I thought LD and astral projection were the same thing.

Diazepam works for me.
Not that I'm aware of.

LD is just being aware in your dream. Astral Projection (if you believe it) is casting yourself out of your body.

I tried the out of body experience (astral project) once. I followed these steps

1) sleep 4 hours
2) wake up and do something to occupy an hour. I avoided electronics and stayed sober. I just read for an hour
3) go back to bed and lay there.
4) visualize a rope above you and visualize yourself reaching up to grab it and pull yourself up.

My experience was an intense vibration all over my body, paired with a high pitch eeeeeeeeee noise in my ear. Visually I saw a swirl of colors before me in a tunnel like vision. All of this very similar to the starting phase of a DMT trip.

Unfortunately at the excitement of "holy shit, something is happening!" it snapped me out of it and I was back in reality.

I will give that a try someday.
The excitement is the reason I can never have LDs when I want to.
