Hi All,

Often I hear people talk about this. And there do seem to be a lot of students on this board. Of course, there are a lot of really good LDer's who have been around a long time, too! they seem to just get really great as they get older. i'd ask people's ages but... generalities are just as helpful, probably moreso. if someone knows the answer.

I wonder, to what extent.. and how fast... does age impact our ability to LD and to what extent can/does practice offset this apparent tendency to lose ability?

Specifics appreciated. Like, do older people even dream? (Stepen LeBerge probably does...) Can middle agers regain abilities they feared lost? are supplements needed? etc...

i have been trying things out.. the b vitamins, melatonin and 5 htp. like them all. plus "serenity" (has passionflower, mugwort, more in it, tried a few times, very nice, i posted on it), but, can't say i have consistent results.

plus my mood and intent to LD goes up and down. sometimes i think just my confidence and psychological wherewithal is the most important thing. so i wonder about all of this.

i think some facts would be really great.

many thanks,
