Thread: Indie's progress

Hello all you excellent people out there. I'm a frustrated dreamer and I could really use some help. I can't seem to have a lucid dream no matter what. My troubles seem to be deeply rooted and I probably need some expert advice.

I've known about lucid dreaming for about 5 years now and have read everything about it I can get my hands on, so I'm pretty well-versed in the concepts and methods, and whatnot. I've had some real measurable success at things like improving my dream recall, but I've been in a wicked dry spell for many months now. I managed to obtain one brief, fleeting moment of lucidity once but that was over a year ago.

I need to keep myself from going too far with this introduction. I am fighting the urge to write my whole life story. I think the challenge is partly because my mind just operates in some weird alien way. I have never met anyone who really thinks like I do. But I'm willing to go into any detail and answer any questions about my history and experience for anyone who is willing to help me out in any way they see fit.

I am not willing to accept defeat in this matter, hopefully this shows from the fact that I have been at it for 5 years without giving up. I have read enough about the subject to believe that it is real, and that there is absolutely no reason to believe that I am somehow incapable of learning the craft like anyone else. My guiding principle is that even if it takes 80 years, so be it. I'm willing to try anything.
