I was so tired yesterday, and slept all day (not a dream remembered. -.-)
but at about 10:00 I tried WILD and first only my legs went to sleep, and it felt very nice. ^.^. BUt then I stand up, and go back to sleep, and get very deep into wild, farther than usual, and I had FULL awareness. Far more aware than I’ve ever b3en doing wild. I felt like I was flying on a roller coaster, and could hear someone announcing band members like on the conan obrian show. ANd I heard applause and everything, but then I heard screaming in the masses, got scared and tried to flee from my flying (I couldn’t see anything) back to my bed, and I did only to find myself in sleep paralysis. THen I panic again and wake up. Then I felt like a coward.
But the rest of the night was even stranger. It consisted of multiple awakenings, maybe 13,14 times overall. WIth a dream or two remembered and forgotten (I had NONE when I woke up this morning to write them down), and the same light all night. It was as bright as 8:00 am when I woke up at 3, and 4, and 5, and 6, and 10 minutes before I have to get up for school. I hated it. I wish I could type more but class beckons and the bell is about to ring. (will post more later)
I’ve had that happen before but only once. I had the same FA where I would wake up and roll over to go back to sleep, only I was in a different bed. This happened like 8 or 9 times and I never did become lucid. You’re right, it is very frustrating.
It is very understandable that it might be frustrating for you. I was frustrated when that happened to me too.
It can get pretty annoying for me because I am usually grumpy about not being able to get a solid sleep, etc.
Congrats on your WILD’ing by the way. Next time, try not to be afraid of SP. Okay?
It is very good idea to do few rcs right after you wake up,especially if you practice WILD.
One of the good ones is to put a letter under the pillow(“do rc!”) and read it everytime you wake.
good luck:)
I have a cool letter in my locker. Well, shinta’s locker. Um, it says “do an rc. Make sure you’re in school. Locker. 89” with alternating colors. ^.^
I was really afraid of the crowd screaming,then i figure “if this is going to be my dream, I don’t want to be there.” so I try to leave and get stuck with sp. I hate SP! Whenever I calm myself down when it happens, It just stays there. There’s not lucidity! I just stay in constant paralysis! 0.o it sucks! And I do not beleive they were FA. I did reality checks, rolled over, rolled back and fell to sleep. I wish this weren’t so hard. -.0
Do you mean false awakenings or “real” awalenings? Because I’ve had at least 4 or 5 Fas in a row, mbefore I’d even heard of lucid dreaming. It was quite frustrating, but I never realized that I might’ve been dreaming, except when I actually had woken up. Whereas real, proper awakenings, well I don’t usually get more than one of those per night.
