Hey, I saw you talk about lucid dreaming in your diary. I've been trying to for a while now but never really succeeded, how do you do it, does it just come natural or do you need to use some kind of method? If so, got any tips?

I kinda have a problem recognizing when I'm dreaming bc I tend to go along w everything I see no matter how bizarre it is (aka i could be dreaming rn for all I know) But I have the same mindset 'awake' as I do dreaming which is something along the lines of 'I control everything arnd me at all times' so when I am in fact dreaming it starts working (but im schizophrenic so idk if dat wuld work for any1 else). to induce a lucid dream on purpose I find myself in a super sleepy/half awake state and either 1. let my mind wander while staying aware of the fact im trying to stay lucid and enter a dream that I then mold to whatever i want to experience or 2. imagine the dream I want to enter and visualize already being in there, not just with 'sight' but all other senses until I actually find myself in it. an easy way to find urself in this sleepy state is to wake up in d middle of the night w an alarm, like 3-4 am probly. or anytime right aftr waking up when u feel lik ur gnna go back to sleep.
having dream journals helps, remembering ur dreams makes it easier to recognize when ur in one , reality checks r worth a try but they don't work for me personally.. here's a nice forum dedicated to lucid dreaming with many methods & general help/information https://www.dreamviews.com
