      My dreams muck up when I try to go lucid, why?.

      Hey everyone.

      I find this rather odd.

      Last week, I was practicing on becoming lucid, doing reality checks, working on WBTB or was it DILD, I've forgotten now but when I tried to lucid dream for that week, my dreams became fuzzy and I couldn't remember my dreams properly or I couldn't even remember having a dream or if I dreampt, I could only remember having a real short dream and the dream was normally fuzzy.

      I stopped trying to lucid dream because of my sleep pattern was going to be odd for a week though I am trying for lucidy next week again but the point is, after I stopped, my dreams were vivid, long and I could remember them perfectly again!.

      Why is this, does anyone know?. I just find this odd, I enjoy remembering my dreams but for the heck of me, I couldn't that week.

      I wouldn't rule out the fact that it may just be a coincidence. Also, you're keeping a DJ, right?

      Well, there can be any number of reasons why you don't remember dreams. My personal reason for not remembering dreams is stress. So for awhile when I was with my girlfriend, I wouldn't remember any of my dreams. But now that I'm single, I dream every night

      Also, maybe going to bed when you actually want to go to bed could make a difference; it does to me. If I go to bed too early and just lay there in bed, I catch myself thinking about random things more and more, which keeps me up.

      Maybe you were trying too hard, and stressing yourself out. Or maybe the work you did for that first week didn't really sink in until the following week. Maybe a delayed reaction to everything you were doing. This isn't too strange. I consistently dream about subject matter from 6-7 days ago.

      Are your dreams normally vivid? Were they unusually vivid this past week? Or unusually absent the previous week?

      Catbus - I thought it might have been a coincidence, I haven't ruled that out. I guess I will find out soon. Yes, I keep a dream journal. .

      hisnameistyler - I wasn't under any stress so stress couldn't be the problem, it could've been because my sleep pattern changed but then again, my sleep pattern has changed many times and I still dream normally, the way I always do and actually, a few weeks back, I was under alot of stress but I still dreampt normally. Though, I will keep in mind if I am having dream issues, maybe it could've been because of stress.


      Robot_Butler - I think it could've been that I was trying to hard. I don't think it's stress because I dream normally even when I am stressed. Yes, my dreams are normally always vivid, which is why I love dreaming. The week I tried to lucid, they weren't vivid at all, the dreams were fuzzy and everything about them was odd, I mean by fuzzy, extremely fuzzy, you couldn't make out anything properly sometimes and they were short dreams. As soon as I stopped trying to become lucid, my dreams were perfectly fine again, they went back to normal a day after I stopped trying to become lucid.

      I am hoping this was just a one off moment but we'll see. If I have to have bad fuzzy dreams for awhile then I will but I hope I wont have to. I want to work on having lucid dreams so this wont stop me.

      I have the same problem. When i go lucid either the dream goes stale or i start having diffuculties remembering my dreams. I just now started keepin a dream journel though so maybe that will help in my case.
