Thread: telling your body the only way to sleep is to wild

When you are sleep deprived, your awareness is actually lower, considering that you are tired, so it's actaully harder to keep awareness during WILD attempt. Yeah, it can increase chances of randomly getting lucid, but with lower awareness it will be less quality anyway, i suggest against relying on that.
Still, good luck, if you really want to try it.

Have some mixed results on this both positive (on unintentional sleep deprivation and not trying to WILD and entering dream easy) and negative (again unintentional sleep deprivation and trying to WILD) so it would be interesting to see if it works for you. Good luck!

Personally I feel like consistency is always best. Except for CAT, which I haven't tried before. Not sleeping can cause problems at work/school/home etc, so if you are doing this I would just say make sure you aren't driving after 20 hours of not sleeping, and I would recommend not having a job that people rely on you, also to not do homework when you are too tired or it might seem... A lot harder or worse, easier and you just get everything wrong!

Good luck with it! Have fun. Most techniques take about 30 days to see accurately how they work, so I would recommend doing it about 30 times to see the results.

its been 31 hours and im not tired at all infact i feel more awake and aware then i did 10 hours ago for some reason but, i do feel if i close my eyes for 5 minutes right now ile probly be asleep but im still up and counting time im probly going to stay up for 3 days (DOUBT IT) but im atleast going to stay up for more then a couple hours then try to wild, hope it works!

Sleep deprivation is not a good idea, for health reasons. Keeping to a more "normal" schedule (ie. ~8ish? hours per day) is far better.

With sleep deprivation...well, your body won't rest anywhere near as well, and your health will drop. How much? Well, staying up once, probably not much - but if it becomes a habit? Not good.

I'm not sure, but I feel that if you sleep deprived for that long, first chance you get to sleep you will just pass out into deep sleep. To WILD, you need to be sleepy enough to fall asleep easily, but alert enough, so you don't fall asleep too fast. You have to have the mental presence of bringing yourself to verge of sleep, but not to fall asleep, until your dreams are ready for you.

I'm not trying to knock your experiment. But same thing (going straight to REM) can be achieved with WBTB. You wake up after enough sleep, so next time you fall asleep you go practically straight into REM. And WBTB wakes up your mind just enough to be able to stay awake until ready to enter a dream.

If you have some free time in the morning, another great method is morning nap.

This is from LaBerges's sleep study:

Getting up an hour early, staying awake for an hour or more reading about lucid dreaming, doing MILD briefly, then taking a morning nap is an excellent means of achieving lucid dreams. This technique is one of the most powerful, promising means of achieving lucidity.

WTF I TYPED 4 TIMES AND IT KEEPS RESETING anyway im going to give you the caveman VERSION ME PASSED OUT WILE PLAYING DEAD SPACE i was gonna wild in the 40 hour period but ended up staying 42 hour period i will explain more that might help everybody WHY IM DOING THIS later right now my brains gonna rest after 40 minutes of typing but i thingk its better to try this in the 20-32 hour period of staying awake *i thought i was so epic and awesome of this idea i stayed up 42 hours and passed out" so 40+ hours equal hell no 39 minus is better im gonna stay up for lesser time and try again *probly 20 to 29 hour mark EDIT it finally post after 40 minutes woooo edit again gab your right to long equals deep sleep silent, its not like im gonna stay up past 48 hours

im also gonna try this tech for a month just to narrow it down to see whitch is the best time to do this *for those who think im not gonna sleep for a month reread* ile be taking days sleeping normaly after my second attempt which the second attempt is starting now actully it started awhile ago but anyway i know about the dangers of staying up so im gonna play it not past 48 hours safe then ima play the get so much sleep ile be eating it lol then restart and work - i dont even worry about work its not like there gonna shove there foot up my ass for yawning *i know how to stay up while working*
