Can't remember dreams or LD anymore

Just three nights ago I joined this website, becoming interested in lucidity after having an FLD. However since then I have not dreamt! I haven’t remembered even an ND since the night of my FLD. I’m becoming impatient, so I need help. How do you increase chances of remembering a dream?

**I also haven’t ever experienced a strong LD. I’m curious as to if this happens to lucid dreamers, too.

It happens sometimes that your DR just vanishes for one or more days. Do you keep a DJ? If not, then I strongly suggest you to get one, it’s the most powerful tool for a good DR. A lot of stress or a change in your life can also affect your DR negatively. You seem motivated, so that is probably not the problem. Before going to sleep, saying a mantra/autosuggestion to yourself will boost your ability to remember your dreams, then you just have to write them down in as much detail as you can, even if you only remember a small fragment. Good luck! :smile:

do you get 8-10 hours of sleep???

Two things I know from expierence. Don’t smoke weed 6-8 hours before bed or your
dream recall will not be as effecient. Also, If you fall asleep by T.V or go to sleep right after using the computer, you won’t have great recall. Read a book or practice quick 10 min. of strectching/yoga and your mindset will be more receptive to DR.

Have you tried meditating? it always seems to help me with my dream recall.

also like childmind said

is rather true you wan’t to get into a relaxed but not too relaxed mood.

I don’t have a solution, but i’m here to say you’re not alone. My dream recall vanished in December, through January also.

My first dream I remembered was that last full moon we had in California. So, i’m back!

I’ve had periods of terrible recall before too. It usually comes back pretty quickly, i.e., within a week. That’s when I’m actually keeping a DJ consistently, of course.

It could also be a phase, and things got pretty dull fast in rl around that time. I honestly dont blame you for being impatient or aggrivated by it.

Even when you can’t remember anything from a dream, write that in your DJ.
I could help.
