G'day, I've been trying to LD for a while, I keep reading WILD and know its where you sleep, wake up and them somehow make yourself have an LD. Trouble is I none of the tuturials make any sense to me for some reason. Can anyone point me in the direction of a simplified version? Or explain it simply?

And I've also had two or three dreams in the last couple of dreams where I resassure myself that I am dreaming, thing is, I usually wake up at that point. I have had a dream where I realise I am dreaming, but for some reason I turned myself into an otter and jumped into a river. Is that lucid, or just dreaming of lucid?

Lastly, if you are lucid, does your dream continue indefinately? Or do you wake up normally? And does it count as sleep? I mean, does LD'ing mean you arn't asleep as such and so will feel tired after it?
