Thank you!!
I should have come up with it myself - to use all awakenings - not only if the "DEILD works" - but as a sort micro-WBTB!
And I am already convinced that mantras work due to experience - and it is something "easy", so I won't disappoint myself with being not enough motivated for a longer WBTB.
The problem with achieving a DEILDs is the following - if catching the alarm - I just enjoy remembering my dream and slip back non lucidly.
In fact - I had only two DEILDs and they were coming from mini LDs. But since I often "DEID" - I thought this would suit me.
If I stop concentrating on reconstructing the previous dream - but view the upcoming LD as a new one - just using the state of mind, not the actual previous dream as such - and hold on to consciousness via something verbal - that sounds very promising to me!!
Or would you advise to also in some way connect to the content of the previous non-lucid dream?
First time with 6 alarms - my memory probably played tricks on me - can't really be, they all found me awake - stupidly didn't do anything with these "reminders".
Then I slept through all but one - same, didn't use it, except for recall - then I left the alarms out twice, because I wanted undisturbed sleep.
I switched to one alarm for WBTB last night and lacked motivation again.
So I was disappointed with my latest LD activities - now I am freshly inspired - alarms and micro-wbtb with mantra it is!

Ah - but for recall - it was already great - didn't journal on here - or anywhere actually - but I remember them for a while, and I found a lot of nice things, I was missing out on in my normal dreams!
