My first was when i was super drunk one night. REM rebound i suppose? I was’t even trying honestly.
My best though was on a random night when i was actively trying to lucid dream & keeping a journal. Many actually, sooo nice. Not something you can get from a drug, you just have to want it. + practice
this is the same for me. I have the best success with FILD (or HILD) at this time. the frustrated thing is I’ll feel myself slipping into a dream, do a reality check, but then when I try to open my “dream eyes” and get out of bed, I end up shattering the fragile state of dreaming and waking up.
I do the best in those lazy weekend mornings when I’m not really tired, just not wanting to get out of bed.
I have the most nightmares when I try to WILD at night before bed. I get myself into sleep paralysis and then experience those freaky SP dreams where I can see ghosts but can’t move. eeek! I’ve stopped doing WILD because of this, unfortunately.
