I might go and get a few books or videos long lucid dreaming like you suggested, Joe.[/b]

YES. This is exactly how I felt. And indeed, that happened after encoutering too much of real life demands. I still feel that way, but i"m on the way to recovery. Pretty much there was NO motivation to try and induce LDs. And even if I tried I gave up after a few days.

I came to realize that this is the mental block that my subconscious mind erected. My laziness is also contributing. Before, when I was doing techniques every night, the battle between me and my SC was in my dreams. It tried to confuse me, kick me out, etc etc. Then it stopped, but my motivation was suddenly gone. I figured it found a way to stop me.

My advice would be to try to start again, start slowly, dont start with anything demanding. Start with writing down your dreams again, focus on recall, build up your interest.



Magic would be still there. It is just with real life interfering it is harder to LD, so the frequency goes down. Once the frequency goes down, the preparation and amount of time spent thinking about it also goes down. With that the quality goes down!
