      Just curious

      I remember my childhood LD's far more clearer than LDs I've had just recently. I am curious as to why that is. I remember almost every aspect of dreams I've had as a child, and then I compare it to recent lucid dreams and the recent ones seem foggy and confusing compared to ones I've had as a child. Why do I still remember all these dreams that I've had 10 years ago, and I have to really strain my mind to remember dreams from just a week ago.

      Welcome aboard!

      I dunno why that is really, but I have the same thing. I think it could be to do with the fact that as children we don't actually know that there is an actual concept for lucid dreaming and that it just "happens". Also we might remember them more clearly because at that age, our dreams tend to be amazing as you can do stuff that you know is impossible and over time we become desensitized to dreaming.

      If your recall is bad at the moment it's most likely best for you to create a dream journal and jot down what ever you can remember from the previous night.

      I agree with Neavo... start a dream journal. even if you write down just a few things you remember, if you look back at what you wrote it might stimulate your memory. you never know, but it worked for me!!

      good luck! and to DV!

      as stated on the website's introduction, recall is crucial. my brother recently tried keeping a DJ, but he couldnt be bothered to write his dreams in the morning. stupid, considering writing down a few notes helps you acheive something so great.

      Maybe because as children our dreams seem as real as real-life to us.. but when we get older, we realize that dreams are simply dreams and therefore dismissable.
