I'm not sure about that. The few times I've done DEILD, I kept myself as calm as possible. I think if you're really anticipated from the start, it will carry over into the dream, and you might wake yourself up. But that's just what I think.

OH man i have this same problem, i just dont know what to do when i lay there, and i have tried thinking of my last dream but its hard when your heart is racing from SP.

so writing in your dj is a definate no coz that wud require moving... and moving wud ruin it lol so you wake up, realise your awake, shut your eyes (if you havn't already opened them), think about being lucid in a/the previous dream and then whamo easy as that? is there sum sort of transition? or u just sorta appear in the dream?

To be honest I never ever have a visual in my mind when performing DEILD.
Try visualization, but as the DEILD technique is a hastened version of WILD, I suggest you try some variations of the WILD technique.
I like to count my breaths as to keep myself conscious while WILD'ing.
