Thread: Hard to see in lucid dreams/dreams go black

Your dream just seem a bit unstabile and it is very common for this to happen. I would suggest performing some stabilization techniques at the beginning of your lucids. They can not only help increase the clarity, vividness, realism, etc, but they can also help prolong your lucidity.

I think everything goes black because you expect them to.

This could also be true. If, for instance, you have a poor quality lucid (or possibly a few in a row), your mind may expect the quality to be poor. This can actually cause the poor quality itself. You just need to play around with many different stabilization techniques until you find one (or a few) that works for you. Once you start making/getting stabile lucids, this problem will be erased. May or may not be the problem, but its a possibility. Good luck to you and be sure to update us on your progress so we can help you further, if necessary.
