Yeah, it probably has a lot to do with brain chemistry and how you fall asleep. For me, WILDs happen most easily when I'm very tired. Before I learned to lucid dream, I would have very rapid-entry REM started by a sinking feeling and featuring a string of false awakenings when I took Benadryl early in the morning and went back to bed. The types of sleep states that tended to produce WILDs after I learned to LD had a very similar feel to those Benadryl states: very rapid entry, very rapidly shifting, and yet hard to wake up from. I've only had a few WILDs that were entered more slowly - a FILD and a couple others where I was repeating something to myself as I was falling asleep. |
