:eek::eek:I am not sure if SILD already stands for something, but in this case it stands for Sick-Induced-Lucid-Dreaming. When I am sick, I can easily get LDs. Why?

My best guess is that you usually feel the need for sleep more strongly when you're sick, so maybe you get into REM faster? Just a thought.
Also, here's an excerpt from one of my DJ entries from the last time I was sick:
Quote:
I stayed up for 10-15 minutes, taking notes on the dreams I recalled so far. Then I listened to the second half of my binaural beats file and continued doing affirmations, this time including remembering to stabilize my dream as one of them. I then spent about 45 minutes being kept awake by my coughing and sneezing, but eventually, I managed to get back to sleep. I think I even experienced sleep paralysis for the first time ever; I remember a moment when it felt like my body was vibrating or shaking really fast.
When I find myself in House #1, I immediately know I'm dreaming. [Since I was lucid from the very beginning and can remember a little bit of the sleep paralysis, I think I may have just performed a successful WILD, even though I didn't originally intend to.]
Hey, you stole the name from me! >.< (just kidding, I know you didn't steal it, but I did have the name first; never got around to posting a tutorial but it's floating around DV in PMs)
Anyway, I think it's because you're sleeping a lot and you're dreaming a lot, so you have a better chance of it. I don't really know why, but it just seems to be that way. :whyme:
I was hoping this was going to be a Sex induced lucid dreaming thread...
lol fail
being sick causing more LD's sounds cool. I actually dream less when I'm sick, so maybe it depends by the person?
