The War For The Night: Sleep Deprivation
PostPosted: Fri 01 Jun, 2012  Reply with quote

Hi guys, I am pretty new here but i seem to be encountering a problem. Whenever i tell myself to remember a dream before bed i wake up a lot during the night. It makes it very hard to get up in the morning. I keep a dream journal and try to do reality checks whenever i remember to during the day. Is this normal? What am i doing wrong?

At the beginning that was happening to me too. I mean I think that after every dream I woke up. It was good for DR and DJ entry. Although I didn't noticed changes on my sleep probably because I didn't have to wake up early...

Try without autosuggestion and see how it goes. Maybe it wont effect your DR and sleep...

Interesting. I also woke up after every dream when I first started, but it never interrupted my sleep in an unpleasant way. How long do you sleep? Can you go directly back to sleep after these awakenings?

I snap awake like I had to do some thing important but I never have the presence of mind to remember what it is. It takes me a good ten minutes to fall back asleep, but I feel noticeably more tired when I wake up. And when i wake up during the night I only have a foggy feeling that I may have had a dream, never anything I can remember.

Are you excited? This happened to me when I first started and whenever I start to try harder to become lucid. It makes me so tired in the morning; Its hard to sleep well yawn

Perhaps MILD isn't the method for you? I would keep trying to see if the problems go away on their own. If not, perhaps a different method would suit you better. Every person sleeps and dreams differently, and what works for some people may not work for others.

Good luck!
