OK, so here's where I stand currently. In the (roughly) month since I found this place and started concentrating on my dreams again, I have been remarkably successful in remembering more dreams, writing more down, and having longer, more involved dreams. The problem with this is that it takes time. Each time I wake and write down a lengthy dream, it takes a half an hour to 45 minutes. Then I usually have problems getting back to sleep, which wastes anywhere from a half an hour to two hours. I sleep for a bit, then wake again with more dreams to write down, and by then I am usually up for the day. AND very burnt out on dreams.

So I have been dreaming two and three dreams a night, most nights, with them being full, detailed, and (to me at least, interesting), and then I find I have no desire to take even more time to type them into the computer. Which really slows down some of my involvement here. But in the last three or four days I have gotten most of the dreams from the last three or four days entered, including some very long, and (I hope) interesting ones with great storylines, and a nice, pleasant (if short) lucid. So if anybody wants to check out the dream journal, there is hopefully some fun reading there.

I think I will manage to stay focused long enough to add another two or three dreams from the last few days, including more linked ones (more and more often some or all of my dreams in a single night are turning out to be partly related), the really miserable lucid that turned me off dreams for a day or two last week, and left me almost suicidal -within- the dream, and a couple of the dreams from a night where I was sick. You know, the kind that go on forever, seem to be half awake, half asleep, and when you wake up from them you are exhausted ....

So this place has made a very positive difference to my dreaming, recently, even if I haven't been posting as much about it. The down side to partial success.
