Hi, Dreamviews! I'm 21, but I used to have intense, vivid dreams when I was in the middle school range - I had LD's regularly (every Saturday) and WILD'ed a couple times (I used to think of it as "shifting", but all these acronyms are a lot cooler)... but the ability sorta faded between puberty and girls and changing sleep patterns and all that stuff.

But I've been really stressed out the last three months or so between intense classwork and probably doing too much donating/volunteer work for the US election season, so I figured I'd try to get back into it - I have no idea if it'll be easier because I'll mentally know it's possible (I've done flying and slowing time before), or if it'll be like a locked door, one of those hippie dippie kinda things like the touch that you cant get back once you've lost it.

I'm also trying to tap into my imagination, I guess - I never believed in writer's block, but I've had a lot of demands on me as far as creative writing goes...

So I started keeping a dream journal last night - and I remembered two dreams (barely), and I'm starting to get that "wake up twice in the night" sleep pattern, which is a good sign, I think.

Wish me luck!
