Sleep deprivation can cause REM rebound, which increases the chance of lucidity. However your ability to lucid dream will suffer greatly with a lack of sleep (obviously) so I wouldn't advise it. |

This one could be a little difficult, but it is well known that sleep deprivation causes hallucinations and increases hypnagogic imagery. |

Ooh, their breath is warm
And they smell like sleep
And they say they take me home
Like poppies heavy with seed
They take me deeper and deeper
Nah it's not a good method, because it can lead to insomnia. |

Well, I don't need to become an insomniac, that's for sure. |
|
On a similar note, what about using sleep aids THE NIGHT BEFORE trying for a lucid dream? Since sleeping pills decrease REM, and the body makes up for it the next night, is this a good method? Or is this asking for trouble? |

I often don't get hypnogogia or SP when WILDing, so I would say it is not the real basis for WILDs, but often goes with it. The real basis would be to remain concious while transferring into the dreamstate, so you are lucid. |

As far as I am aware, sleeping pills are dangerous unless you really need them. I would greatly advise against them. |

Prescription. Even so, I take them only very seldom. |

overall, i would stay away from sleep deprivation, and get lucid with a good amount of sleep on a regular routine. |
