I have tried out most of the LD techniques at various intervals... I have gotten to the point where i have recalled 1 dream per night, a great feat considering naturally i almost never remember my dreams.

heres the problem- I have NEVER been able to consciously LD. Every single time i realize I am dreaming, I wake up. EVERY time. This is SOOOO FRUSTRATING and usually i end up giving the LD techniques a long break in by frustration and having to start over from scratch.

It takes really blatant things to make me become lucid... falling off a cliff and not dying, etc. It makes me wake up.

usually though, I dont get any lucidity at all. Am I blocked? Has anyone ever felt like this? How do I unblock myself?

Its really frustrating just passively waiting to become lucid.
