It sounds like you want a shortcut. Have you done anything that would increase your chances up until this point?

i mean i maintain a dream journal and meditate and try to sleep properly. i don't want a shortcut, i just want to stop making such awful progress

i have obvious mental issues given my hour long mental breakdown last night, but whatever i'm doing isn't working. obviously i'm not trying hard enough and i've made 10 years worth of mistakes

Oh, it's the 'loser' poster.

Then you've done enough. You only need to let go, relax and stop stressing over it. The only thing I can suggest is to reaffirm that you are going to have a lucid dream tonight (especially right before falling asleep), do a couple of reality checks troughout the day and do WBTB at night. Trying too hard is counterproductive. It will mentally exhaust you and your chances will decrease instead.

i mean i do all of that. also have to constantly try and disperse the self hatred lol. most of my nights trying to sleep is a forcible effort of telling the incessant thoughts to shut up
when i lose against them you've seen the results lol
