Massive Decline

Hey guys. I've talked about this in other threads, and it's getting a little redundant, but I keep reaching for help and reaching for help anyways. Maybe cause I don't trust myself, but that's a whole different issue.

I used to be an avid LD'er, having great LD's and enjoying it. i had never gone a month without one. Last month, I had none. I hit my one-year anniversary of starting lucid dreaming in early December. My motivation is gone, with no hope of returning, and I fear that I will forget about lucid dreaming altogether.

I love dreams, and I don't want to lose this special ability which I love. I keep getting preoccupied with other things in my life, and futhermore, I have a very analytical mind, which keeps it on other issues.

Seeing as my list of life issues isn't likely to decrease anytime soon (I turned 16 yesterday) I have no idea where to go as I start the journey into my personal year.

I would say, put lucid dreaming on the back burner for now

and just re-establish your interest in dreaming in general. get back to the basics of the love of dreams. keep a good dream journal for now, and look for metaphors, meanings and themes in your dreams. appreciate even the smallest dream, lucid or not.

You cannot escape from dreaming at all. Thats for sure. If you dont feel like investing time into dream world, you dont have to. It will be waiting for you till you find reason why to invest some time into it.

If you dont want to stop your attempts, take a look at your current situation and invest little anmount of time to find out, if you can put your current dream abilities into some use in your current preocuppation. Maybe you will find out, that you actually dont have to spend as much time doing LD stuff only for the sake of LD itself.

This or that way. Neighter is bad.
