Thread: how can i overcome this obstical?

hi DVers

i saw something on the forum about a dryspell.. i dunno what that is for sure..


but maybe i have same problem.
because i didnt dreamed for a month now
but i know why.. my subconcious 'learned' to think that i can remember dreams anymore..

and ik know i can and i always say when im going to sleep : I WILL DREAM I WILL! but for some reason :S my subC dont want work with me anymore i think:S

what shall i do?

It's not that you're not dreaming, but you're just not remembering any anymore. "Dry spells" refer to not having any lucids for a long time but I guess this could also apply.

Listen to some music before you sleep, or eat chocolate. Once you have the slightest glimmer of a dream, right it down upon awakening. Continue to do this until your dream recall is back to 100%.

Hope that helps.

thanks for your advice..
i hope it helps
i like chocolate so (A)

but do i have to repeate in bed that il will dream
or should i use another methode?

btw also the lucid dream methode with the ' ignore movements turnarrounds itces' etc wont work... i just fall asleep... do i have to be more awake? because im a late to bed type

If it's like I get, it's a resistance to remembering dreams. Like (1) be generally aware of real world (2) know I'm awake (3) thinks - no dreams to remember (4) try to remember dream after all and can't.

Not sure what to advise other than to stay disciplined. A notepad by my bed and occasionally a voice recorder. Write down anything. Anything - feelings, single words, tunes. Anything that's there after wakening.

a day has pased and i had a weird night..
yesterday eve i countend to 100 with 1 im wil dream 2 i will dream etc..

and for some weird reason.. i woke up at 4 hours :S in my mind i said wtf? and i think i need to pee.. also i rememberd a dream but for some reason i felled to sleep again and the next time i woke up i didnt knew the dream anymore argh!


does the counting have to do something with this?

Dunno about counting but make sure you keep a notepad by your bed so you write down your dream when you first waken. I know the feeling about not being bothered but to get in touch with dreams it really does require an effort (for some of us anyway).

Wake up an hour early and then doze for a while.
