Thread: When should I start LDing?

I have started keeping a dream journal over this week and can remember 2-3 dreams a night (1 being very clear, 2 or 3 being a bit short in terms of memory) which has totaled to about 11 dreams. I've been having trouble trying to remember to reality check, so I'm not sure when I should start to attempt methods. I'm a little afraid to do them because I have a bit of a fear of the dark which is why I keep my TV on before I go to bed (which has an auto-sleep after 90 or so minutes).
