Thread: I don't understand!

I do everything that I'm supposed to. I reinforce the idea in my head but whenever I wake up, I cannot remember my fracking dreams! How can I improve my dream recall?

Try doing it before you go to bed. I have pretty bad dream recall, and I've been trying for nearly a year but never really LDed. One thing that does have tangible proof of working for me is autosuggestion BEFORE I go to bed. Try that.

Waking up to an alarm half-way through sleeping to record your dreams works too.

My adoptee had trouble with remembering dreams. I told her to do this -

Wake up an hour before you usually do, go back to bed and wake up at your usual time.

When you go back to sleep you will immediately have a dream and because you are going to wake up soon after it is really easy to remember it.
She did this a few times to get a feel how dreams are and it helped her remember the ones during the night. Try it!

^^^ Agreed.

Damn, 59 WILDs? Nice.

To remember my dreams when I wake up, I find that lying in the exact position that you woke up in and not moving helps me to remember my dreams.

I tried all of these last night and still got nothing! I'm going to give it one more night and if I don't have a dream tonight, I'm giving up on DV and ever having an LD.

Never give up.
