OK I didn't know other people actually had "dream guides", but when I was just learning how to LD years ago, my dream guide pretty much uh...guided me and taught me a lot about myself, LDing, and helped me through all kinds of problems, shared dreams with me. Pretty much it was the only consistent character in my dream world and I felt I had a sort of transcendental connection with it, as if it were my subconscious itself that I was communicating with. My dream guide was the #1 reason I enjoyed LDing.

Recently my dream guide died in a non-lucid dream and now whenever I want to see, or summon, my dream-guide, whether in an LD or a non-LD I come to a tombstone. I may try several techniques to control my LD but they won't bring back my dream guide.

I'm just wondering, has anyone else had this problem before? I feel silly saying it but I'm actually really saddened from this. It's like I lost connection to a very important part of me. Any ideas on how to bring my DG back?

Maybe I just need psychiatric help. lol :p Anyway, I have an LD almost every night so if you got any suggestions I can try them out and report back what happens usually the next night.

thanks all please help me!
