      WHY ME!! Help

      It's been 5 nights I've been waiting to go lucid but it's just not happening for me , I've never been lucid . I'm starting to remember my dreams more now but I just can't distinguish if I'm in one or not . What should I do?

      It's natural. I had my first LD about a week after i started my training and it was about 30 seconds long and i had no control over it.
      It takes practice.. I'm not very experienced myself but for 2 years i have had only 21 Lucid Dreams and none of them have been with full control.
      It gets easier to distinguish.
      Things that will help you are: Lucid dream Journals (where you record your dreams), Meditate at least 10 minutes a day.

      And of course try other Lucid Dreaming Methods.

      Be patient, read tutorials, read books, be positive, don't give up. If you perform good day and night work (like working on self-awareness and memory during the day, and doing WBTB and setting strong intention at night), eventually you WILL get lucid. 5 days is nothing . It took me one month to hit my first LD, and some people take more than that. Dream recall is important, so just keep working on that, start a journal, create a workbook in one of the excellent DV Academy classes (intro or DILD, for example), and just enjoy the whole thing. Lucid dream training is a journey more than a destination!

      At this stage, well, at ANY stage of dream practice, I would recommend being open to everything. Nothing exists in a dream. Anything that seems scary is your own mind. Be brave, face them head on. Also, telling your subconscious that you don't want this or that may actually slow your progress in lucid dreaming. Lucid nightmares? If you are fully lucid, then there are no nightmares, because you will not be fooled. Maybe scared, but nothing a lucid you can't handle.

      As a muscle, it takes time to build it up

      Five days is a very short time as it really depends on each individual. Are you keeping a Dream Journal? How is your recall.

      I encourage you to get a dream journal started here and post your dreams. That alone will prove discipline to your subconscious and start the road of development

      Also, I see a few of your posts where you are afraid of lucid nightmares and SP. SP is harmless as I shared with you and not required for most LD techniques. About a lucid nightmare... well, if you are lucid, it does not matter it is a nightmare, you know is unreal and you might even solve whatever challenge said nightmare is giving you
      Click the door... and welcome to my dream world!
