Blargh, why can't I DILD?

[Shlumpeet]

I cannot DILD at all. I can WILD very well, when I properly prepare to WILD, I'll do it everytime. We just got done with two weeks worth of testing and when I finished my tests(about 4 hours after I wake up, still managed to dream when I fell asleep though) and I WILDed everytime I tried. When I wake up in the middle of the night I stay up for about 45 minutes and then WILD, and I'm successful almost everytime.

But I cannot DILD at all, my first and my 3rd(or around there) lusid dreams were DILDs, but thats it. All the rests were WILD. Can anyone help me out?

Well, one (obviously) gets lucid during a DILD by realizing they are dreaming, correct? You have to find a way to make yourself realize you are dreaming. The common way to do this is by using reality checks (http://www.dreamviews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4935). That is one way to do a DILD. Another way is through hypnosis or MILD (see tutorials). You can learn to recognize dream signs in your dream. There are endless ways to become lucid in a dream, you just have to find the best way for you. Ultimately, you just have to believe you can do it. Good luck.
