Thread: Ever get "tired" from lucid dreaming and trying to lucid dream?

Often after a very long or involved LD'ing session in the morning, I will tend to wake up feeling drained, even exhausted -- and will spend the day in a bit of a daze. But I think that was more a result of putting my mind and body through a couple of hours of rigorous activity than it was LD'ing disrupting my night's sleep. Aside from those really long sessions, though, my LD's generally have no effect on the quality of my nights' sleep.

It could be, Kadie, that you're just pushing a bit too hard; the induction of LD's can be a taxing business, sometimes... but it's the induction work that is taxing, and not the LD's themselves. That you never got tired when LD'ing as a kid sort of illustrates that LD's can certainly be a part of a good night's sleep.

Thanks Sageous. Im sure you are right. I never felt like this when JUST letting them come naturally, so it must be the induction time and trying that is taxing. However, I have used my current method before and not been so tired, so maybe it is just a combination of things going on IRL and IDL.

@ SinisterDezz, I found it weird too.

@ yaya, thanks, at least I am not the ony one.
