Many of us are in the same boat. The only thing i can tell you is to go to bed much earlier, like 7-8 hours of sleep and to wake up periodically during the night using an alarm clock and then write down whatever you remember about your dreams. Also do that thing where you say over and over that you will remember your dream. |

Curiosity killed the cat but at least it didnt die an ignorant bastard
Same here. It isn't a thing I can't stop though. I wake up and get up too quickly and forget my dreams. I don't have time for a dream journal. Go to sleep earlier and wake up earlier and keep a dream journal. |

Its killing me. Some times i rember but i forget so fast. And as for more sleep. I have trouble getting to sleep earlier. Any tips? |
|
the noyl advice i can give you is to either take pills or to tire your body out enough so that you fall dead asleep. |

I think its normally from you getting lazy and not from school. Thats normal though, who wants to wake up and spend time writing in their dream journal when they have to get up for school or work? I know I don't and my dream recall is getting pretty bad too. |

School has destroyed my dream recall, I have only had 1 LD since school started, and during the summer I had 17! I think I am going to start a dream journal again, tomorrow! |

So, I'm not the only one. I've tried to sleep earlier, not only in the hope to remember my dreams better but also to feel less tired the next day. Both without succes |

I generally don't have this problem anymore. I think that this is because I kept a journal pretty regularly when I first began having LDs. The method Pubbles mentioned about lying in bed and going over whatever you CAN remember from your dream in a state of "half-wakefulness" (sometimes the more quickly you wake up, the more quickly you will forget). Try waking up slowly, or prolonging the waking process so you can "review" what you were dreaming about. This is very difficult if the dream was extremely abstract or if it was a nightmare (fear = adrenaline and adrenaline = stimulation to consciousness). Anyway, if you "don't have the discipline" to write a journal, you can also make sketches or brainstorms, diagrams, etc. -anything that will help you remember in the future. I would suggest developing the discipline, though since journal writing is the best way |

"By day the LORD directs his love, at night his song is with me; a prayer to the God of my life."
Psalm 42:8
I found my expirience has been the oppisite. I started losing my dream call ability lastyear when school started winding down and i wasn't on a consistant schedule with sleep etc. Since then I've been renovating my bedroom so my sleep surroundings haven't been the same and my summer job kept me constantly tired and randomly sleeping so I never felt like I had the energy for a dream journal. But now that I'm back at school I'm waking up consistantly and remembering more and more every morning, which coincidently is why I am here for the first time in ages. |

[22:59] <Kaniaz> You basically did a massive shit on the rug of this IRC
[22:59] <Kaniaz> And called it a message
No offense but it sounds like you're making excuses as to why you're not keeping a journal and obviously you don't want to put in the effort to make it work. In my opinion, this is what's keeping you from furthering your lucid dream skills. |

Yip. |

Keeping a dream journal isn't always easy but it makes a huge difference. I literally go from remembering a few dreams a week to remembering 4-6 every night when I'm consistent with my journal. |
