Thread: LD'ing without recalling: my stupidest experience ever

...make dreams more vivid
I'm also having trouble with recall but I believe if you keep a journal it will improve over time

I just don't understand how one can forget a lucid dream.
it happened to me that I woke up, and I recalled rubbing my hands together in the dream, maybe to increase lucidity. so when this happens, I don't care, If I can't remember a lucid dream, then probably I didn't have a lucid dream.

I know this happens to me waaaay to often :/

Hmm... so why would you have rubbed your hands together to increase lucidity if you didn't have a lucid dream

Maybe he dreamt that he was lucid dreaming. The Mind does weird things sometimes ^^. It have happend to me to, I recalled that I hade a lucid dream but I was just dreaming that I was dreaming, sounds weird I know, but I was dreaming that I knew that I was dreaming. I was not aware of it.

I've had that with regular dreams (dreaming that I was dreaming) when I was about 8 yrs old I think (so that would be 7 yrs ago )

anyways, you have a good point with that.

yeah, I think it was that.

during long WILDs, i go lucid, then have a rambling sort of story, that can go on for some time. at the time, i think, i have got to remember this, and this, and this..., but, they are so long that by the end i just have a few tag words left.
