**About Me** I am a 27 year old male, a computer programmer, I run a successful software company that builds blockchain technology, and I was fully aphantasiac up until 2 days ago (June 5 2022). I have known I’ve had aphantasia for a few years and it’s always caused me distress, I didn’t even believ
**UPDATE (21/01/2026):** Figured I'd post an update here because I still get a lot of DMs about it. Yes I am still lucid dreaming, and better than ever before (up to over 220 LDs now). However I did end up changing my routine/methods. I no longer use Caffeine, CDP choline, theanine or B6 P5P. Eve
I have used the techniques below for 58 years to Astral Project. For easy reference, I've distilled the information down to a "cheat sheet" format. If you'd rather just listen to a video than wear your eyes out reading, just click on my Astral Club Youtube link and chillax! [https://youtu.be/usb6k
I’ve tried so many different techniques. I bought so many different Crystals. I’ve sacrificed so much sleep. I also bought a few different lucid dreaming tinctures (to AP from LD) and also galantamine. I even tried shrooms! Nothing worked for me for a long time. Ironically once I stopped trying so
I tried Galantamine last night for the first time. Five lucid dreams. I'm lucky to get two a month, let alone five IN ONE NIGHT. For those of you wondering if it's worth the 35$\~, I say go for it. I still had to use MILD and WBTB but my god, I was seriously not expecting such success. I flew in a l
So I've been experimenting with this for months now and I think I've figured out a method that actually works consistently. Basically you're trying to keep your mind awake while your visual system starts doing its sleep thing. The pattern I keep seeing is: deep relaxation + a slight inward eye focus
Trying to dial down on the repetitive questions, I've made a short summary of subjects frequently touched upon by beginners. *A*) There is no single technique that is the easiest. Everybody has different strengths, weaknesses and circumstances. At best, you can find the ideal combination of techniqu

Story time, I moved across the country to be with my fiance. I went to the hospital for a really killer migraine, and everyone at the ER mentioned this neurologists name, one person mentioned it I didn't think much of it, but when nurse after nurse and then the doctor even mentioned his name I was l
So I have a history of migraines, obviously. Usually they'd be 1-3 times per month randomly. Or if I encounter a trigger of some sort. Imitrex usually takes care of them, though a few times I've had to go to ER/Urgent Care for the migraine cocktail. Within the last month or so though I've had a h
I was fired from my job last week for discriminatory reasons. I'm not sure if I should bother taking legal action. For fuck's sake, I am physically and mentally exhausted. This morning I woke up with visual aura and almost tripped while getting out of bed due to warped depth perception. (I was tryin
My neurologist recently suggested I see another headache specialist at a larger clinic to get a different perspective on my headaches, as they were refractive to almost everything he tried, and have been for a few years. My regimen with him is Botox, which had me down to about 8 headaches a month,
My mom is 70 and I’m 31 and an only child. Everyday I see my mom deteriorating and I want to just cry because of how scary it is and how lonely I feel. I don’t have anyone else to share this experience with of caretaking and it’s so isolating. My mom is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s but recently it’
I compiled Full list of migraine medication that I found. If you can add something to the list - i would be thanksfull !!! Please,never use any of them before consultation with doctor, even Nsaids/pain relievers that look harmless cause big headaches if you use Them more than 8-10 times a month **In
Guys I thought I was losing my mind. I’m 52 and I can’t follow a conversation, I have trouble remembering what I’m watching if a commercial comes on. It’s been terrifying. Thank God for Reddit. My migraines have been at least 3x a week for more than 20 years and NEVER did my neurologist tell me ALL
My mom, 90, early-going-into-moderate Alzheimers, used to ask me almost daily about a "cure," or when she's getting this or that new drug she's read about (she graduated off Aricept, had bad side effects on Memantine, and was denied Lequembi for being too risky). Today, she damn nearly cornered me:
