Thread: Can't seem to get Lucid anymore

Hey guys,

I can't seem to get lucid anymore, and it's starting to get a little frustrating. Granted I have taken a "break" from lucid dreaming for more than 5+ years, so I suppose its not an over-night thing. Still bugs me since I used to get them all the time it seems, and now I can barly get any recall on regular dreams (and if I do, its very brief seconds without much detail)

things I have tries thus far...

- Daily "reality" checks including looking at my hands, and asking myself if i'm dreaming. I do this more than a dozen times a day

- Look at a clock, look away, look back and see if its been changed unrealistically

- Write EVERYthing in a dream text file, even if its as simple as "I attempted to become lucid last night, and unfortunatly I did not. I do not even seem to recall any dreams at all"

- I take a few minutes while lying in bed before trying to fall asleep to look at my hands, tell myself I will dream and become lucid tonight. I also take this time to stare at my clock a bit.

That seems to be everything i've done so far. I just can't even seem to recall much dreams at all - seconds here and there...but nothing lengthly...and definitly not even on a level 0 of the lucid layers. It's more of a "memory" of something, but not interactive at all.

I plan on buying some Galantamine tomorow if I can find some locally here at a health and supplement store - if not i'll make an online order. I plan on drinking some apple juice and eating peanut butter before bed tonight as well.

Anyone have any other suggestions for me?

Thanks,

Doc
