Hi all! I did an unintentional WBTB this morning, and soon found myself in a very realistic LD. I'll skip the details, as I know most of you have read well enough lucid descriptions.

Anyway, about 5 lucid minutes later, I was going along like normal, doing vividness-increaser's like rubbing my hands together. Suddenly, I found myself in what I can only describe as a sightless abyss. I knew I was dreaming, and was vaguely aware of my dream body, so tried anything I could think of to get out (more hand motions, imagining getting out, etc.), with no success. It felt extremely numbing and disorientating. My memory fades here.


I have no real idea of how long I was there. The first thing I remember after this happened was either a false awakening or an actual awakening. Either way, I went back to sleep, entering a non-lucid dream (though I have to mention it was miles ahead of my average dreams in terms of vividness.)

There ends my experience. After fully waking up, I tried to come with an explanation. Of the scattered reports of this event in others, most just consider it a result of 'breaking' their dream with 'too much control.'
The only thing I could come up with was simply the end of my REM period, and went to phase 1 of sleeping.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
