Why dont i dream like that anymore?

[LucidRaider]

So, basicly, in october when i got in the track and mood of lucid dreaming and dreams and stuff again, i had amaizing dreams, and lucid dreams at times, they were always very interesting... but now they arent anymore. they are just on normal day life, or about school... which no one likes... dreams about school... ugh... anyway the question is.. why dont i have interesting, emotional, or good dreams anymore? can someone PLEASE help me and reply to this. i miss them? is there anyway to dream about interesting things again?

O_O OMG i havent realized it but i am having those dreams now as well... I know i cant help you lol but i havent realized that. I've gon to fighting 3 dragons the size of apartments and exploring a final fantasy like world to getting my report card!!!!!! HELP US!!!!!!!!!!!

I've never had amazing dreams before. Mine are ALWAYS about school. Or something boring. It's actually kind of annoying because when nothing wierd happens, it's hard to get a DILD. I think I'd have 10x more lucids if i had more exciting dreams.

Ikr? yesterday though, i did a meditation in which i told my subconscious to start dreaming about interesting things again, and well i had a lucid dream, but i told my subconscious to lucid dream aswell... still the dream was strange enough... maybe you can try the same thing ? o.o. ahahha fighting dragons sounds like awesomeness to me ;D . i faught a demon dog once in bitch black in a dream xD it wasnt a nightmare though lmao. but you batteling dragons totally beats that heh. i think its something to do with stress maybe ? aswell when we go to sleep and we have our minds on stuff like "oh god what will i do about work tomorrow?" if we keep thinking like that its no wonder we have yawn to yawn dreams lol

OH YEAH, i completely stopped trying to LD before (i trying to get back into lucid dreaming again) and while i fall asleep i used tro think ALL about dreaming... now i think about 'holy crap i didnt finish my hmwk' or ' i cant wait to tell my friend that awesome thing that happened'

[Taffy]

Try subconscious speaking? You mean like mantras? Or something else?

Hmmm, yes if your focus right before you sleep is on school etc it makes sense that your dreams would be about school or work. Try reading a really interesting book right before bed like something with adventures/fantasy to it. I am a fan of shows like TrueBlood and Supernatural which are both sci-fi/fantasy/horror type shows with ghosts and vampires and crazy things happening. Alot of times I'll read a random FanFiction story online right before sleep and I find it helps me have more interesting dreams. Or try to think about things other than school work, like whatever you want to dream about if you don't get the chance to read something or even watch a bit of a favorite tv show.

You mean like mantras? Or something else? I mean meditating, then speaking to your subconscious, telling it you wish to dream about great interesting things again instead of boring things. It worked for me.. i think

[NightCrawler]

True Blood is definitely awesome

I never knew cheese affected your dreams. I did google it and I'll probably try it. I wonder if there's any cheese left in the fridge...

My theory is that maybe in the day you are so busy with school, work, etc that you aren't devouting enough time to day dreaming. Maybe you should try spacing out a bit, and giving your mind some free roaming during the day. If you're so concerned with what is going on in your day than it makes sense that that would carry over to your dreams. So maybe if you day dream more you will give your mind some more "ideas" for your regular dreams. Just a theory . By the way Anthony, I love that short term goal of yours. The one about reaching into your pocket and seeing what you find.

All of my dreams are usually about things that could happen in real life, just with small oddities I could pick up on but don't. Mostly things like going to school and working :/

[Evolventity]

Maybe we need to jog our imagination more or meditate to put those uninteresting things behind us.
