Thread: ended to quickly

first of all this was my 4th lucid dream
i woke up and found a few spiders on the wall i ran out of my room(im scared of spiders) and then i relised that there shouldnt be that much spiders at the same time i did the rc of breathing through my nose and then became lucid, then i wanted to get rid of the spiders and as i was thinking how to do it the dream ended

did i do something wrong?

Well I would ask how many hours into sleep you had directly prior to having the dream? I wouldn't say you did anything wrong. Sometimes that just happens. Have hope that this is a sign that you'll have even more LD in the near future.

I've found LD stability increases with more and more experience/recall. Also the length of the REM period you're in and depth of the sleep may have something to do with it.

actually i had had 6 hours prior to that, i woke up at 5am in the morning ( there was some noises outside my room, and found out later it was a possum in the room anyway) and then when trying to go back to sleep and then i just had a lucid dream, infact it was starting in the dream in the exact spot where i was sleeping :S

i probably should of trying clarity techniques ill try to remember that next one, its just i've had very little lucid dreams to put the stuff into practice

yeah i hope too i will have more lucid's as its been a month since i found about LD's

i only had 1 lucid dream and i realize i was dreaming because we're supposed to hit the car ahead of us but im waiting and waiting and waiting and we cant..then i realize its not possible. then i become lucid then i woke up.
grrrr......

Thank god you didn't really run from the spiders. You would have ended up face to face with that possum. Those things are terrifyingly mean.

Running out of my room and having a possum greet me would really make me do an RC.

OMG no not in the actual room it was in the roof >_>
if it was in the actual room i would be fked

lol i would make me rc aswell if any animal was outside my room ^^"

Lds, especially the first couple, usually end too quickly. They seem to get better with time, being more vivid with more control, and I don't even get excited anymore so they don't end right away. Right after you wake up from one just lay there and don't move and see if you can re-enter. Doesn't always work but it will alot if it wasn't because of the end of a REM period.
