any time i got a LD was when i was in the dream and relized that something was very wrong/weired, then i did a reality test. (i used to do that before i learded about it)

the first couple times i got it though i faded out of the dream really fast

but the past two i had after reading about it i have stayed in them by being calm

the other LD was a nightmeare and i relized that the thing after me wasnt real so i started to mess with it it was fun
