Yea, for some people alarm clocks going off will actually make you forget your dreams. |

okay, i've been on this site for 8 days now. you people are all great making everyone feel welcome immediately and offering help left and right. and i seem to be having trouble getting the ball rolling so to speak in terms of improving dream recall and having lucid dreams. i've tried every technique on the site to find ways to improve my ability to remember dreams and i always seem to wake up the next morning vaguely remembering a fragment of just one dream. and the only real experience i've had was body paralysis on my first night. i've tried setting alarms to wake me up after REM cycles and when they go off they seem to scare the dream right out of me and I forget it. so to be honest. i need your help. everyone who reads this please post some of your techniques or ways to improve mine so I can finally make some progress. thanks. |

Hey skateboard 814. |

thanks for the advice, last night when i went to bed i didn't read about lucid dreaming like i usually do. my thought was to not even think about it or worry. around 4:30 this morning i woke up and i remember looking at the clock thinkin 'what the crap am i doin awake at 4:30.' i started to go back to sleep when i realized i had just woke up from a very detailed dream. my first since i started. i wrote the whole thing down and laid back down sayin 'i will remember i'm dreaming when i'm dreaming.' after around 5 minutes of this my body felt kinda numb and my i started seeing colors swirling around. after this i think i fell asleep cause the next thing i remember is waking up to my alarm at 5:30. so thanks to all you who wrote advice. later. |

It almost sounded like you were heading into WILD's. You may have been successful if you would've maintained consciousness longer, probably just concentrated on breathing methods. But thats great now that you've had a detailed dream. I would've told you earlier to just try and wake up a little earlier so you can catch your REM cycle, but you beat me to it. Congrats, keep it up. |
