Does anyone get these? I haven't remembered a single dream in two days... starting the night after I had my LD. It's really pissing me off, my dream recall was nearly perfect before, all my dreams were long and I could see every detail, and now the last couple days I remember absolutely nothing. Is this common, or am I just weird? :P
It is common, yes. I recall Aphius having a dry spell a while ago.
So far I have a dry spell tonight. I went to bed later then usual, so my awakenings are not synchronized with my REM cycles :(
I find that when i go to bed too EARLY I remember nothing at all, even like as soon as i wake up....wheras today i went tosleep at 24:15, and my dream recall is so good i dont need to write it down immediately because i wont have trouble remembering it untill tomorrow!
Yeah, that happened to me a while ago, I couldnt get anything for like 3 days. Although I've never Ld'd :cry:
Yep, I have dry spells too. Since I've been coming to this site, I've had a lucid dream or WILD about every night. The more you think about it, the more you do it. Unfortunately this philosophy rarely applies to sex. :roll:
:pissed: DIE, DRY SPELLS, DIE! :pissed:
Haha it is over! :D
Too bad my dream recall still has a way to go to be back where it was before.
24:15!? wtf?

I had one of those dry spells a few days ago. For like a week, I couldn't really remember anything that I had dreamed about and as such, couldn't write in my dream journal. :( But today I had a pretty good recollection of a dream, so it's all good. :)
We have all had them at one time or another. But, don't worry, it will pass.
I lost all motivation not to long ago, Though I had some of the best dreams of my life soon after.. Recently I havent had a dream for about 1-2 weeks. *sigh* :|
*sigh* It's been about a week for me also. They seem to come in cycles, I don't know why. I will sometimes go for a 7-10 days without one and then whammy, 3 in one night, or one every night.
Although my average is 3-4 a week, they tend to cluster up, sometimes with gaps between!
Yeah, it sucks! :furious:
yeah man i have not remembered a dream to for the past 3 days im mad but i know it is normal and my dreams will come back :)
I havnt had an LD in like, 4 weeks. :( ;_;
I'm going through a major dry spell. We are talking weeks.
Not good as I have been recalling dreams for many many years.
I don't understand it but I'm patient. When it rains it pours.
Blissful
Ugh it's Saturday morning, and I didn't remember anything. :cry:
It's my fault though, I went to bed after two and then woke up like ten, and I couldn't fall back asleep. Oh well tonight I'm going to bed at like 9:00. ;)
In a response to me having a dry spell plus being on the forum so often.Quote:

Take a few days break from Dreamviews and thinking about LD's.
It works for me- every time I disappear for about a week or so, I have some LDs.[/b]
Maybe, after your LD you reached your goal that you set so your mind doesnt try to recall anymore, because you wanted an LD, and because of that you need to recall your rdeams. You've reached your goal, now set yourself a new goal.
CT makes a very good point... I think really it is two-fold...
-Always have a goal ahead of you to accomplish, as CT said, if you reach your goal and do not have another higher goal your mind will instinctively not try as hard
-confidence!=easier, if you think you have made a certian goal, even if you have a higher goal, you will not try as hard since you think you have made it and that could cause you losing that level of LDing... this has just happened with me. You also inevatably get more excited when reaching a goal. Don't get me wrong confidence rocks... it is just you must NEVER associate confidence with something being easier.. ever ever ever! eradicate that association in your mind!...
:evil: With a thermo-nulcear warhead of 200 megaton yield.... yesh... muahahahahahaha,....HAHAHAHAHAMUAHAHAHAHA :evil:
I think the most important thing is to know why you make yourself get dryspells so you can learn from your mistakes... which takes a good amount of introspection.
