Thread: Some help getting lucid

Until you get so used to realising you're dreaming, you will find yourself only RCing when you see something so blatantly dream-signy that you aren't sure whether you're dreaming or not xD

First of all, welcome to the forum!

I think you need to try some different techniques. Things work differently for everyone, so maybe the FILD technique just doesn't do it for you - or you just need to give it more time.

As for RCs - they are meant to be done during waking life, so once you get used to doing them all the time, you will start to do them in your dreams as well. The key to utilizing RCs is that when you do one while awake, you need to really question if you're awake or not - not just say "Am I dreaming?", then immediately respond, "No."

Be more aware and conscious of your surroundings during waking life. If anything remotely strange happens, really ask yourself if this could be a dream. Eventually, you will become more aware of strange things in your dreams and be able to recognize that you're dreaming.

Bottom line - it all takes patience and practice. Keep us updating on your progress! And good luck!

A good thing to do is when you finaly become Lucid ask for your literal Dream Guide not like Burns up there. Mine is a disembodied female voice she tells me to do a reality check,or when i visit an old dream scerery she tells me how familiar it looks. And Do RC during the day if you look at a clock ask yourself if your dreaming then look again to see if it says the same thing.
Im a beginer too though so Good luck
