When I used to sleep with an eye mask, i'd become lucid and still have it over my face and impossible to rip off. So I continued my lucid ignoring it and it eventually went away.

Well last night I had a dark ass dream where I could only sees a tiny shadow from the corner of my vision. I continued and ignored it but it never got brighter

why do you think this happens?

Perhaps next time i'll yell BRIGHTNESSSSS!!!
