Hello Dreamers,
I really need some help, because I can't find the reason why the Lucid Dreams seem to run away from me.
I have been practicing Lucid Dreaming for around 3.5 years, that includes DILD and around 2 years ago I tried WILD + WBTB, but that was a failure.
I just do the basic DILD (you know, genuinly asking myself if I am dreaming or awake, checking my surroundings for dream signs, doing some RC, doing mantra) and I do that a few times a day, it is a habit since I came across LD-ing.
I added a technique called SRM around a week ago (It might help, we will see). I have a dream journal, my dream recall is ok I think, although it changes from time to time, sometimes I can roughly remember one dream per week, but most of the time I can remember one dream per night (even though not always fully complete).
The problem with all this is, that in these 3.5 years, I had only 3 Lucid Dreams total. In these years, I always read about LD-ing, Dream induction, Dream experiences and similar stuff on the internet. Most of the people have Lucid Dreams after about a month or two after they start to practice (at least thats what I read). So then I thought about that and was confused: "I have been doing that for about a year now and still no Lucid Dream. Maybe I need just more time and maybe I'm just unlucky". I thought to myself after I read experiences of other people. So being the patient creature that I am, I just kept on practicing. I admit there were a few weeks where I didn't even think about LD-ing, but I always tried to be motivated enough so I kept on practicing (I'm even practicing right now, while writing this post ;) )
But now I realized, that time just can't be the thing that hinders me from achieving a steady stream of Lucid Dreams (or at least more LDs than one per year). I always thought, that I was too impatient and that I need to practice a few months more. But I found posts on the internet (on this site too) where some people seem to give up after a few months. Thats understandable of course, I don't mean to offend anyone's patience skills. But after 3.5 years you do lose motivation, trust me. In this time I always motivated myself to carry on, keep on practicing, "Soon they will come", I always thought, even though life isn't always easy for me.
Thats why not so long ago I joined these forums, hoping that I can finally raise my LD-rate, if someone is willing to help me.
Don't know what else to say... eat Vegetables, be nice to others, don't abuse animals or little children and so on...
(I mean seriously, Don't abuse animals or children if some of you do O_O It's not a good behaviour)
I wish you all a good night ;)
(Sorry for the long post and sorry for bad english, I just wrote down my thoughts)
