Hey Mag! It is natural for someone to feel discouraged after countless failed attempts, but with every failed attempt you get better and ever closer to that first LD. If you give up you probably won't have any LD's, but keep at it and you'll have one soon enough. That's the hardest part and after that it's all downhill so if you can make it there I promise you it will be worth it to keep trying. |

Hello there Mag and welcome! I can perfectly relate to your problem because up until about a week and a half ago I had similar problems and naturally I got frustrated too but there's one thought that just brings me back on track: A lot of people can have lucid dreams, I am just as human as they are therefore I can achieve it too. It might take me longer than others but there is nothing stopping me from it but myself. |

When you practice lucid dreaming it is very important that you feel confidence in yourself. |

Quick note: don't give up, keep trying to figure out what works for you. I came off a 3+ week dry spell into 6 LDs in 12 days, a new personal frequency record. |

Thanks for the responses everyone, these have been really helpful. |

I highly recommend SSILD and ADA, they go nicely together and they are just that bit different from the rest, hopefully you should see some results soon. |

Are you practicing the fundamentals? You have to enhance your self-awareness and memory. These are the base of LDing. I highly recommend Sageous's courses(they are WILD courses, but have allot of important info that are important for DILDing. |

I fill my heart with fire, with passion, passion for what makes me nostalgic. A unique perspective fuels my fire, makes me discover new passions, more nostalgia. I love it.

Just some Tips from a fellow beginner(Only 4 LDs to the day) the way that I got my very first LD was I spent the days before just simply pondering the subject of LDing, I didn't pursue it but I simply laid out in my head "Ok, I want to have an LD and I know how to do it." type thing. I'm the kind of kid that questions everything he comes into contact with so I used the situational awareness I had to judge what was going on. It is different for everyone but I'm just laying out that you don't have to force it out of you, just let it come naturally at first. |

Lucid Dreams: 4
Dream Goals: Fly[X] Summon an Object[X] Have a Dream That Appeared to Last Over 30 Minutes[X](First LD too)
Punch a Teacher Through a Brick Wall[](Haven't we all wanted to do this?)
Have a Lucid Dream that Appeared to Last Over 100 Years[] Create the Zombie Apocalypse[] Survive Said Apocalypse[]
Walk Down the Street Where Everyone Hates Me, See What Hilarity Ensues[]
It looks like you have put a lot of work in so far. Getting stuck a bit is normal, I was stuck for months without an experience when I started. Try to mix it up then - keep your dream journal going, start spending time practising all day awareness, perform regular reality checks and use a mantra in bed each night, again performing reality checks. |
