Hey djpatch, some days you just don't recall your dreams as well. Don't worry about it! Just keep up what your doing and it will get better |

Sorry to bother you all again, but I just woke up from another DILD attempt (5th time trying this) and I couldn't remember it at all unlike my previous 4. It feels like I've taken a step backwards because i was getting better at recalling my dreams. I know it can't be done straight away but how long would it normally take to get the hang of this? |

Everyone has fluctuations in their dream recall, it comes and goes as it pleases and with changes in stress/lifestyle/diet and all sorts of things that happen in every day life. Given your join date, I wouldn't be stressed about it at all! |

Spoiler for Goals:
I wouldn't worry about it. Dream Recall isn't supposed to be consistent. Just like anything in life, when you practice something you experience fluctuations. For example if you're learning to play the guitar, some days might be good and others might be bad. You need to look at it from a general perspective over a long term period of time. Have I gotten better this month? OR have I not? |

yes like the guys said, although a morning where yourecall now dreams can be annoying as hell(I've found sometimes you just need to sleep a bit longer) it doesnt mean your going forward or backward unless it is stretched out over the long term. |
|
Like everybody else said, but I would like to add something as well. It seems as if going to bed very tired, dream recall isnt as great. Go to bed when you start getting tired, dont stay up until you cant keep your eyes open |

You see things and say, 'Why?", but I dream things and say, 'Why not?
like everyone says, dont worry. and bother us? we love a member to post around, get into the community!, pull up a seat in the lounge, go on the IRC maybe. |

If I have a lot of things happening in my day, I find I remember my dreams less, or not at all. (regardless of the dream type, like lucid or non lucid) What I hate though is that passing feeling of a long and detailed dream but you can only remember vague flashes of it. GRR! |
|
To me, once you start a dream journey and make it a point to lucid dream, there are no steps backwards. You may trip or stumble along the way, but once you commence, there is no going back... sorry if that doesn't make sense. |

divinemission, thanks for posting my new sig quote!! |

Well, I have now managed to start recalling my dreams again, still not going lucid, in my opinion anyway. When I try out of my normal sleeping pattern I go into what seems like my imagination and not a dream, well that's what it feels like anyway (i.e vague and not vivid for it to feel realistic). Apparently I am lucid because I know I'm dreaming but my brain cant seem to make the connection that I can control it |
|
Well contrary to what many people believe, lucid dreams =/= dream control. There are many people who can experience a dream where they know they are dreaming and have no dream control. If I were you I would visit this forum and look at dream control tutorials in the wiki. |

I just came from Nina's Stabilization & Clarity TUTORIAL and I can't help but link you there. |

I know exactly what you mean, there is no worse feeling that smiply KNOWING for a fact you had an epic journey in dreamland but you simply cannot grasp at those flimsy images stealing in and out of you minds eye to reconstruct it!! |
