I had a really weirdly initiated DILD today from a false awakening. I was in a dream and my alarm woke me up, (well I thought it did but it was actually a false awakening) I did all of the normal WBTB stuff, such as dream journaling, meditating for a bit and even playing the guitar. After what felt like 10-15 minutes, but what probably less than 3, of WBTBing I "fell asleep" and almost instantly was sent to a dream near a pool where I got lucid. Extremely cool experience to have. Have any of you guys experienced this before?

Cool experience! Was it being suddenly transported to the pool that made you realize it was a dream or something after you got to the pool? The most common way I've had this is doing a WILD or DEILD during a false awakening and either realizing I was already dreaming or falsely thinking I was awake but now succeeding at entering a dream via WILD or DEILD (DEILD is really a type of WILD, but I like the differentiation). In fact I'm convinced that many of the experiences I thought were true DEILDs were actually a DILD during a false awakening.
