Ld Problems

Hi, its been about a month or so since I have last logged into this page, but after that short break I decided to try lucid dreaming again. So i did the Wbtb method, because it has been the easiest for me so far, and when I went back to bed in the morning, I started falling asleep shortly after and right when I was falling asleep, I could feel my body like falling, kind of like if I was in a roller coaster laying down.

So I woke myself up, and tried it again. This time the same thing happened, I could feel like I was falling down at a really fast speed. I kind of got scared again, and woke myself up, but I was not going to give up, so I decided to try again, only this time I kept on thinking about a parachute, in case I felt like falling again. I thought that maybe I would be able to open it while I was falling and enter a ld or something, but I started falling again, and then I couldnt remember anything.

The strange thing is that this always happens when Im trying to have a LD. This was the reason why I quit a couple of months ago. I could not get anything but a sensation of me falling down at super fast speeds, and Im too scared to not wake myself up when I am having it. What should I do? Am I doing something wrong? Has this happened to someone?

That is a feeling that is felt during WILD. It is fairly common, and if you stay with it, you could enter an LD. If you don’t want it to happen don’t think abot falling asleep, it’ll keep your mind awake. Just let your mind wander away until you fall aslep.
