thank you. because i never remember having it beforehand every lucid dream i've had.

There are two categories of LD induction techniques:

DILD - become lucid while already in dream - (while in unconscious SP)
WILD - straight from waking to (lucid) dreaming - (consciously go into SP)

During a WILD, you experience your body falling asleep, and thus you consciously go into sleep paralysis. Everybody goes into sleep paralysis when sleeping, it's just that you normally are unconscious.

Actually sometimes I fall alseep very quickly (within minutes) if I'm tired enough, but most of the time it can take me half an hr to fall asleep. If I'm comfortable enough, I can enter SP. It's quite regular for me, but never took thought of it before coming here. I thought the HH/HI was jsut be being really tired

So even though I'm not trying to LD, I can still go into SP only because my body thinks I'm sleeping when I really haven't yet

SP happens whether you LD or not
