If I DILD mid-scene, I have good lucidity and control. But in FAs and DEILDs, the dream is always so unstable and I lose them after a few seconds, maybe as long as a minute. Either my view is distorted, I can't move, or I can't think or remember clearly. Seems like there is a problem if I gain lucidity at the very beginning of a scene.
Appreciate advice and/or shoulder to cry on. :sad2:
Well, I have the same problem, if it's a DILD, clarity, control and lenght are good, but if its a WILD, they are much shorter and with less control/clarity, it really sucks. What I do in my WILD is simply to stabilize the dream for a while.
Hmm, interesting. I only had a few WILDs up till now, but in some of them my experience was really hazy, as if my senses weren't fully functional. Also, I found I didn't really have a lot of control (or enough awareness to increase said control).
But I've also had a WILD or two that were very long and vivid. Perhaps it also depends on other circumstances? Like the way you performed the WILD, or how tired/awake you were before trying it. I dunno. I don't yet have them frequently enough to really have an answer. I had one of those crappy ones on Saturday and I tried to do it last night, but it didn't quite work out (fell asleep).
