as you can see im severely pissed at this, WHERE THE HELL ARE MY DREAMS!!!

i cant recall any-fucking-thing. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

sorry, im done now.

I am bottled, fizzy water and you are shaking me up.
You are the fingernail running down the chalkboard I thought i left in third grade.[/b]

Getting pissed or sad is the last thing you should do..
Be optimistic, expect your dreams, tell yourself you will remember them, this seems to work according to sources, like i said, i dont really have dry spells, only in periods of stress perhaps.. but I dont stress easily..

i know, i know, thanks man, i just had to let it out there, or else i would have "bottled it up"...hopefully tonight i should at least dream, i dont even mind if its lucid or not, just to have a dream...it been days.

Call it 'womens intuition', but I think I'm on to something here.

Your'e not alone lOWER cASE, I am currnetly on day 6 of a dry spell. Really annoying, there is SO MUCH I WANT TO DO in my dream world!

it might be this whole moon-cycle 7 day thing, so hopefully i will have a few tonight....i had one last night, but right when i woke up i couldn't recall, so its comming back! hope at last.

the truth is...you could slit my throat, and with my one last gasping breath i would apologize for bleading on your shirt[/b]

Ok its been a straight week now, last Tuesday mornin i had a lucid dream, and basically nothing, not even dreams for a week...this is really killin' me.
im going to be sick...

open up my eyes, flooded with day light, another sleepless night turns color black and white.[/b]

I'm in a dry spell also and its soo annoying. I am so ready to start Lding aagain!

I find when I have a dry spell I think about dreaming too much and so it bothers me more when it doesn't happen.
I think the best advice is to relax and not worry about having a dream when you go to sleep. Eventually you'll go back into the flow of having a bunch and a day and you'll be ready to go lucid again.

Well if anyone read about my strange dry spell of still waking up but not recalling...I'm happy to say that this only lasted 3 nights and has been gone ever since the seventh! Just something that happens I guess, I don't really do anything to evoke changes... but like Lucius said, I just don't let it get to me. Once you've experienced a rut, next time you'll know to not give it any thought.

yah, i'll try some of that, its just im really gettin over it now, it just sucks...i had a dream last night, but it was so retarted i didnt even bother to write it down.

on about day #9.
Strange thing is, my dream recall is at an alltime high, they are vivid and varied, but no lucidity.

Last night dreamed of everything from trying to stimlate shrimp growth by applying 120V (didn't work, they caught on fire), to one of my best friends undergoing a sex change)

After each dream, I sit and ponder all of the inconsistancies that should have triggered lucidity, but no luck.

Well, at least my dreams are entertaining!

That made me laugh.

I'm in a terrible dry spell right now. It's funny, just a couple weeks ago I thought I was really starting to get the hang of things, and now for almost a week straight I can't remember squat from my dreams.

Yeah...

I have no lack of dreams in a dry spell, I'm just stoopid...
like...
I'm at lucid dreaming seminars...
Some of my favorite "lucid homes" and reoccuring dreams...
I own a g36c ...
Yeah...
Yeah?
Yeah.

i had 2 dreams last night!!! woo hoo, the most in a week and a half or so that were longer than a flash, and i wrote one of them down!

but i'm going to give it till next tuesday...which will be week #2 and see if my dreams are "happening" like normal. and then i'll work on trying to become lucid again

but i still am suffering from this dry spell....why oh why

Chin up buddy! I am on day 10, but feel like I am just a few days away from being able to WILD.

I have been making progress. The most important thing I've learned to far is to stop being tense while attempting to WILD.

My dry spell continues...

meh...I'm having a dry spell too! what's up with that?

Damn, I didnt know so many people around here suffered from dry spells..luckily I dont.. that sucks..hope yall get them LDs soon again

three or less dreams a night counts as a dry spell for me though.

Usually when I'm lucid in one dream, I'm lucid in the rest (well, maybe not the first).

MY DRY SPELL IS OVER and now i am working at regaining lucidity...

when assessing my dry spell, i noticed that i was severely depressed the last 2 weeks, more than i have ever been in my whole life, and i never get depressed, i am generally a happy person...
well anyway, i am currently studying Psychology, and there is a pattern of depressed patients and low seratonin levels.

And because seratonin plays a major factor in the area of sleep and dreams, therefore my dream occurance and recall were at an all time low.

now i am a happy *muffiun* and back up on my two feet

cheers.
