Looks like it's time for an update, guys.

It's not going well: dream recall doesn't improve unless I use the subliminal (I'm afraid of becoming dependent on it), the sub. recording I use that's supposed to help LD doesn't work (might be something to do with the fact I've only listened to it before going to bed. Should I listen throughout the day, to incubate?), and whenever I try MILD, I lose determination after about 25+ reps of "I will remember to do a reality check" (also done before bed. I think it's supposed to be combined with a WBTB).

I will not lose my determination to have a Lucid Dream. I just need advice, peeps.

I'll continue MILD for a while longer (couple weeks at the most). If that doesn't work, I'll move on to another technique (just trying to keep my College work in line as well, which is easier said than done). Cheers, folks
