Um... I'm not totally sure this is the right place to put this thread, but it's a newbie problem, so I'm assuming it's close enough...
Anyways, I'm sure that people have said this, like, a million times, but... self-importance, ok? ._. I've been trying to Lucid Dream for a little over 2 weeks now. I've been using DILD+MILD, and kind of WILD, but I didn't do any research or prep, (I kinda just lie there and think about random stuff while I wait for some sort of sleep to occur.) so not really. I heard that most people start LDing 3 days to 3 weeks after they start trying, so I guess I kind of expected to get one pretty quickly. However, I didn't, and, due to my chronic ADHD, (which prevents me from actually going through with something if said thing doesn't yield results within the first few days) I started losing motivation pretty rapidly a few days ago.
Due to mentioned CADHD, a bunch of new video games, and going to a camp from 8:30 til 5 pm, I've been forgetting to do my reality checks, and when I do remember, I do them simply to do them, I'm forgetting to do mantras ever at all, any dream recall I had gotten in the first week or so has disappeared, I'm either forgetting to write in my DJ, or I just can't get myself to get up and actually write anything down.
Don't get me wrong, I still REALLY want to LD, and I'm more than willing to actually put effort into it, but it's just so hard when I get too busy to remember to put effort in, and then as a result, I start feeling like whatever effort I do put in is pointless, and then I put in even less, and the little bit that's left isn't even being directed how it should be... Does anyone have any tips on how to get out of this? =(
