      Did I WILD or DEILD?

      so this morning my parents woke me up kinda early cause they had made a big breakfast, so i got up, ate, and went right back to bed. as i lied down i immediately started seeing images of a dream. I was in school sitting in my popular music class i had last year, which was one of my favorite classes. then as soon as it started it was over and i was still lying in my bed with my eyes closed and i didnt move at all i was seeing a lot of hypnogogic imagery in my closed eyes and then when i starting thinking about things, they would manifest themselves in my closed eyes and i could actually see them. so then i imagined a doorway and then the doors opened and i went through and i was in my school. i thought "holy shit!" and quickly plugged my nose and was able to breath, but everything was very fuzzy and heavy and as soon as the dream started it ended. it was pretty sweet though, and i got another lucid dream under my belt.

      so i was wondering was this a WILD or a DEILD? i dont remember any sleep paralysis, and that first dream i had seemed more like hypnogogic imagery.

      well, a DEILD is just a faster WILD under certain conditions, but i would say it was just a WILD. A DEILD is normally where you wake up, and don't move at all with the image of the previous dream in your mind, and so you never really break the REM state, but eating would break REM.

      They are the same thing, basically. Deild is just a little faster.
      Haven't had a lucid dream in 3 years, and I'm looking to get back into it.

      Eh, a DEILD is a type of WILD. Most people see WBTB as the traditional WILD and seperate it from DEILD. As for your dream, I believe that it was not a DEILD. I believe that you hit SP, lost it, then regained it. This can happen sometimes in WILD attempts. Either way, congrats on your success! good Luck in your future efforts.
