Oh I’m interested in them (and motivated), I’m just not very interested in writing about them.
I started a DJ none the less, but I’m not sure if it’s helping, though. My DR was at least one (sometimes two) per night before starting a DJ and keeping a DJ hasn’t made it increase or help me remember better. Yet (it’s only been a couple of days).
Perhaps I should keep an electronic or online DJ because that is much more my thing.
Okay, I bought a journal, and I’ve actually been able to remember dreams more often! There are days that I don’t remember anything, and there are days that I remember up to six dreams. It’s pretty cool.
I keep missing all the reality checks though. Last night was so obvious, but I never noticed. I had to infiltrate some building to get something, and some people quickly built a wall to stop me, but I just kept running towards the wall, and I said “Heh, who said I can’t walk through walls?” and I ran right through the wall as if I was a ghost.
That one was so obvious, if only I was more aware! Funny how walking through walls seemed so natural
Even if you just remember a feeling, write it down in you DJ. Your dream recall will enhance little by little.
You’ll find very good tips about dream recall in this post and in this one.

Hi!
I’m new and I begun my quest for LD about a week ago but I have a major problem: my dream recall is terrible, really terrible.
I keep a dream journal but I can only (if I am lucky) recall about one dream per week and that dream is usually hazy and I can only recall small fragments of it. I try to focus on remembering my dream and tells (speaks) my subconscious self of my intention to do so. So far it hasn’t helped, I can’t remember my dreams at all.
I think you’ll find you have more vivid dreams during afternoon naps and the like. If you get the chance, sleep-in. I often have my most vivid dreams when I’m sleeping-in and drifting in and out of sleep.
But really, you just have to keep at it. If you’re getting frustrated, take a break.
Thanks, I’ll keep trying and continue to record them. And yes, I try to recall my dreams right after waking up. I have a dream journal next to my bed so that I will be able to record any dreams I might remember before losing them completely. Most of the time, trough, it is completely blank and i just wake up with no memory of any dream at all.
Due to some obscure twist of fate I find it really hard to sleep in the afternoon (except when I’m really tired) but I could be worth a try.
I’m mostly able to recall at least 3 dreams a night but sometimes it’s more and sometimes it’s less, but I’m satisfied In the beginning I didn’t remember any dreams, but if you keep practicing,…
Don’t think so. If you practice a bit of autosuggestion and read the tips I gave you the links towards on the top of this page, you’ll quickly make big progress.
yur right about that im at my dads for the first night and i remebered one dream. it was a short one and got cut of by fright of my face getting shaved off.
This has got to be the only forum where someone could put a smilly after a statement like that. Where else could someone be happy about almost getting their face shaved off?

I suppose you’re talking about the MILD induction technique? If so, you should post it there and not in the BIG remembering dream topic.
It’s a terrible question though.
