How long did it take you?

i’ve been trying for about 3 three days now not one lucid dream which im aware of that your not going to get one on your first try but i have seen a huuuuuuuuuuuuggggggggeeeee difference in my dreams for instance before i started my LD quest i was about as often to have just a dream as to a newbie LD to have a LD but the night i started happened to be on a saturday so i slpet most of the day i had a dream, then after my morning nap i had a longer one and the next night it was even longer and vivid. so with this i am hoping to have a lucid dream at all cost no matter how long it takes methods ive been doing it medation dream journeal naps and more dairy products. so good luck :wink:

If i remember correctly it took about a couple months. not to long but i am satisfied with it :tongue:

A few weeks.

Probably about a month or so.

3 weaks

Believe it or not - a day. :happy:
The first day (about 2 years ago) I learned about LD I’ve managed to have one… :smile:

I am trying for 6 months now, still no succes :’(

I had one LD before being here, but after I joined here I think that after a month I had my first LD…

about two months after i discovered it i got one.
it’s been about 6-7 months since then and no new one :sad:

Haha, suddenly I don’t feel so alone. Speaking of this, what kind of journals do you guys use to record your dreams down? I’m not sure whether a voice or a writing one works better.

Voice recording is maybe easier when you don’t feel like recording, but I use writing one and I have a DJ here on LD4all, even though I didn’t updated it for some time know because I was very busy with school. But I do update the “physical” one. :smile:

It took somewhere around 2 months to have my very first LD but the first vivid and relitively long one came after 6 or so.

i had a decent one after about a week and a half. One thing that makes my ability to even remember dreams in general is amount of sleep and amount of stress. You want a lot of sleep and little stress. Also I found it was easier when taking naps to LD and if not that then to at least remember the whole thing. Two hours of napping did me a lot of good, especially after a full nights rest because my body didnt need any deep sleep so it just went straight to REM. Dont get discouraged, there could be a number of things affecting it, its all just trial and error.

I got a semi-lucid the first day. Then I got my first actual LD after 2 weeks.

I got my first LD after 12 days. Though I’ve had four dry spells so far, three of them about a month long and the 4th one lasted 50 days :eek:

I had first one after… (checks dj) 4 days. I was doing lots of RC through the day haha

My first LD came after 9 days i was WILD ing daily with no success then i got FWILD . Still waiting for second LD.

I’ve been trying LDing in the past, for at least 4 years but with a huge breaks, but this holidays I had my first LD after few days of trying :smile:

had mine on my 3rd night :grin:

More than one year I’m trying to have LD with only 2-3 semi-lucid dream.
