So I had been trying to lucid dream for on and off since 5 years ago. I had a long break and I'm finally returning to trying to lucid dream.

I used to have problems with remembering dreams. Not because I wasn't trying hard enough, but because I didn't have enough sleep and had too much stress going on. Even after months of trying I'd have little to no dreams each day.

I'm finally in a good place in life so I decided to try again, but I'm scared of encountering similar problems with dream recall since I had several tries where I'd get nothing. Several. So me trying again doesn't feel fresh - I'm afraid I'd do the same thing over and over again, not feeling new, and ending up with the same results.

Any advice?
