How do i keep my mind awake? I tried focusing on breathing and have tried focusing on my last dream that i had, but nothing seems to work i just fall asleep.

Are there any tricks to keeping mind awake that i don't know about?
Maybe this technique isn't for me, not sure.

It's just that alot of people say this is so easy and never mention about how hard it is to actually stay awake.

Thanks
I've never DEILD'd before but if I'm not mistaken, I think you can imagine yourself back in the scene and that should work provided you want to go back to sleep BTW, I would move this thread to a more appropriate place(this section is for WILD) because you would get a better answer
