I've been wanting to try DEILD, but I have a fear I'd like to clear up first before diving in.

I'm afraid to DEILD after a lucid dream because I'm worried I'm going to fail, have a regular dream, then forget my lucid. This seems a little silly now that I've written it out, and I'm sure 90% of my problem with DEILDing is this negative thinking. But there it is. Has this ever happened to you, or am I just worrying myself away from trying one of the easier LDing methods?

My current solution is to only try to do this after a non-lucid dream, but this is sidestepping the problem instead of fixing it. I'm hoping some of you can allay my fears.
