Since then I've had abolsutley none
its been a month or two
Did this happen to anybody else. I know a lit of people ahve dry spells but did it specifally happen to anbody like this. A couple of lds realtively quiokcly and then no more for ages?
How may I end this?
I really want to LD again, yet i mstuck for ideas
Thanks

Hi, it's normal...happens to me everytime I have an LD. It's got to do with the intent, I notice a change in that like U are complacent at first that U will have another one but by the time night approaches...doubts come in because U fear U might not have another one... So what I do is to do RCs or whatever to keep me motivated. Also another reason for it is because of fulfillment, Ur goal of having LDs has been fulfilled so Ur subconcious mind is not as motivated to try for another one...... So get it to be motivated by doing everything LD related but at the same time don't try too hard like I did....

Hey - lots of people seem to get into dry spells. I've gone from having two or three per week to one or two per month. There doesn't seem to be a good reason for it... and I haven't figured out what to do about it yet.

Please stay in the loop as you struggle through this. Perhaps a new tutorial on "dry spells" will eventually come of it!

i remember the same thing happened to me, Imran. what i did was kindanothing except get motivated. i thought of the greatness of LD. then i tried FILD and that got me outof it.

i think im having the same problem. i havn't remembered my dreams for a while. i remember little bits of it in the middle of the day sometimes. but when i wake up.. nothing.. its quite depressing really..

Have you tried a new induction technique? I used to do DILDs all the time with reality checks and so but then i got 2 weeks of dryspell and I tried MILD. 3 Lds in one week

Thank you for the guidance and advice.
Yeh I suppose it does all come down to motivation
I suppose dry spells can be a never ending circle
Once you get one you get sick of trying
so u stop trying and you dont become Lucid, I've even stopped keeping my dream journal =(
