From Awake to Dream........

[TopographicOceans]

While attempting a WILD, I never go from awake-SP-dream fully aware of change. This is what happened in my last one a few weeks ago. After doing the 1 i'm dreaming 2 i'm dreaming count, I get to 100 and wait alittle and nothing happens so I just turn over and fall asleep. I then wake up while in SP, then fall back asleep for another minute, then I am dreaming i'm in my room for a few seconds while Lucid and then directly into a different scene. The thing is, I am not "aware and conscious" of each transition. There is a gap or falling asleep between awake-sp and sp-lucid dream. So I dont even know if this is wild or dild? So the question, if this is a WILD, how come I dont see the process straight thru directly happening and I dont see images of the dream starting to appear? Or is this what a WILD is always like? and does the lucid always start in the same room you sleep in in real life? Because all of mine have.

Well, first of all, yes, what you did was a WILD. DILD is when you realize you're dreaming when you're already in the dream. But this is the weirdest WILD I've ever heard... I read how you counted from "1, I'm dreaming" to "100, I'm dreaming" and then stopped. Start over. If you stop, you lose focus, which is probably why you just turned over and went to sleep. The reason you're not conscious and aware of each transition is because you don't stay conscious and aware of each transition. As for the being Lucid in your room when the dream starts, about 3 of the LD's I've had start out in my room. But sometimes there in different places. Hope that helped.
