I can't get past it... more WILD problems...

[DC111]

You know how when you WILD, sometimes you feel like you are falling through the bed or tripping and falling? That happens to me quite a bit, and apparently that part leads right to the lucid dream for many people. If you can get through it. My problem is that every time something like that happens to me, I jerk awake. I think it's just reflexes. So my question is, how do I get past that point without waking up?

Sometimes I jerk awake a bit too. But I don't let it bother me, instead I see it as a sign that I'm succeeding since I'm still conscious at that point. I stay calm and as a result I don't wake all the way. What progress I lose in falling asleep is quickly made up for. Do you think you could overcome this by just staying calm when it happens?
