I don't get much sleep and I'm not able to recall dreams on weekdays. Mainly due to my alarm sending them all away. I usually go to bed at midnight and wake up at 5:30 on a weekday. Would it be possible in any way with a sleep schedule like this to induce a LD or is it just impossible?
I highly recommend getting more sleep. It's not a matter of dreaming so much as a matter of health.
What's preventing you fom going to bed earlier? Are you able to take naps?
I spend lots of time on the computer and I force myself to stay up until about midnight. Maybe a half-hour earlier. Sometimes I'll take a nap as soon as I come home but then I'll stay up all night. You could say I'm not the best with time management.
Uh, why are you on the internet so often? Do you want more sleep? It sounds like you're staying up intentionally, and if that's the case, you're going to have to make a choice.Quote:

Set a soft alarm (a quieter alarm, or a vibrating alarm) to wake you up at 5:25, and dedicate the first five minutes of waking to recalling your last dream.
I'll try. I'm probably going to have to end up buying a watch specifically for alarm though. I don't have anything I can use for a vibrating alarm.
Cell phone, perhaps?Quote:
