#16: Author: Louis XIV, Posted: Mon 28 May, 2012 ---- My first attempt at writing a dream journal was in 2005. I was twelve. Back then I didn't know that it was possible to work on dream recall, i thought it was simply a question of luck that the dream didn't vanish.
Later, in november 2009, I discovered the whole dream recall and LD thing and decided to record all my dreams. Never stopped ever since.
#17: Author: MagykKatte, Posted: Mon 28 May, 2012 ---- I first wrote in my "official" dream journal September 30, 2011. However, I often had dreams that inspired story plots (unfortunately no dates, but I think they were from June/July/August of 2010) so I wrote those down so I could remember.

#19: Author: Träumer, Posted: Sun 23 Jun, 2013 ---- My DJ goes back to Fall 2012, now I remember my dreams every day, but sometimes i have to be a bit patient until I can recall the dream, but when i remember the first detail, the rest of the dream comes back really fast
#20: Author: 4therace, Posted: Tue 09 Jul, 2013 ---- I started around May 2012, but my dream recall fell back after we moved, and I kind of just "forgot" about writing in my dream journal, which led to me forgetting about reality checks and stuff.

#22: Author: dreamosis, Posted: Tue 10 Dec, 2013 ---- I had journals back to 1998, but I began asking myself "Why keep these?" so I threw them out. I rarely went back and re-read them. Now I wish I hadn't done that. All I kept (unintentionally) was a typed record of my first consciously-induced OBE in 1999.
Currently, I just have written records going back to 2010.
But, of course, I still remember dreams and LDs from childhood that it never occurred to me to write down. The really important dreams I remember well, if not in the same detail that had been preserved in my old journals.
#23: Author: Fate, Posted: Wed 11 Dec, 2013 ---- My journal is in the LD4all DJ section it's entirety. I should make a backup just in case but I never got around to it. It goes back to the Q4 of 2007.
#24: Author: epona77, Posted: Fri 03 Jan, 2014 ---- I have been keeping a hand written journal since 1989. I've transcribed a lot of them onto the computer and the new ones go either in the handwritten one or the computer, depending on how fast I seem to be losing the details. I am not good about daily recording. I have a habit of not writing them down if I tell them verbally to somebody or if I text one or some other method.
