Thread: What am I doing wrong?

Yesterday I found King Yoshi's WILD lucid dream technique and wanted to try it out. I fell asleep last night (or rather, a few hours ago), but it took a LOT of effort. My alarm clock was set for 2 1/2 hours afterwards. Yoshi said to wait untill REM sleep to actually do the attempt, but I couldn't recall a single thing when my alarm woke me up. I did what he said and set my alarm clock to 45 minutes later. When I woke up then I still couldn't remember anything. After repeating that for a while, I got confused as to we hat I was doing wrong and quit. Was I waking up at the wrong time? Do I just have really crappy dream recall? Can anyone help me with this?

I'd also like to note that recently I've been having some issues with dream recall, I haven't been able to remember any of my dreams, lucid or not, for a few weeks now.
