      Introduction + Clarification questions

      Hi.

      I'm a Australian, 16, and male.

      I've always been fascinated by my dreams, so I thought I'd join this site. Though the help of the community and guides, I hope to train myself in experiencing regular lucid dreams, and also learn about the experiences of others.

      Just to clarify...
      I've always had the ability to become aware that I'm dreaming. Often in dreams where something bad is about to happen to me, I can also make myself wake up by 'opening my eyes' (it sounds strange, I won't go into it now) Is that Lucid Dreaming? I've also experienced dreams (twice to my recollection) where I've been so aware of my surroundings, I could actually see everything in perfect detail as if I was ACTUALLY THERE. Is that also Lucid Dreaming?

      Thanks!

      Hi HarraH, welcome to the club! I hope you will achieve your goals of lucid dreaming with the help of this forum. It's an amazing place

      The first dream you describe (with the 'opening your eyes') can be lucid, but it depends. At the moment of you opening your eyes, do you realize that you are doing this inside of a dream? If so, you're lucid. If not, then it's just a regular dream with some kind of habituated exit method to stop the dream from happening, I guess.

      The second one is not a lucid dream, that is just a highly vivid dream. Those are amazing.

      There is only one type of dream that is more amazing (I think) and that is a LUCID dream with that kind of vividness. That, my friend, is one of the most amazing experiences you can have and is on its own already enough of a reason to start making an effort to lucid dream

      Good luck once more to you!
