Doh, you did miss it, I just posted it later than earlier: here There's another one tonight at 8 CST.

Anyway, WOW that's some great recall Mydera! As you can see, 5-htp can increase dream frequency and vividness, but they aren't always lucid. Or happy for that matter. Sorry the reality checks failed. Same thing happens to me when I have really vivid dreams and realistic FAs. You just need a repertoire of RCs to try instead of just one or 2.

I know what you mean about the hustle and bustle of the day. Happens to me from about 5:30-7:30am on and off. But then I go back to sleep at 7:30on my days off, and that's when some of my best, and most consistent LDs happen. So setting your WILD alarm for 4am and going to bed earlier should work better. But my question is, if you have the insomnia again, would you be able to sleep in at all? I mean, when the bus finally comes at 6:15 and if it's a day off, can you go back to sleep for a couple more hours?
