So, I haven’t had an LD yet but am working on it. I went to bed last night and decided to try the WILD method of inducing an LD. It was hard for me to do this method because I would be laying down and slowly counting to myself and tried to think about walking down stairs and I would star to visualize myself walking down stairs and then I would have a twitch and I would kick IRL and it would wake me up completely. This happened three times and finally I got frustrated and went to bed.
Was I even close to having an LD or was my imagination just going wild on me?
what you had sounds like a hypnagogic(spelling?) jerk. it happens when you’re about to fall asleep. i used to get them a lot but not so much anymore. i think it’s a reaction from the body because it thinks it’s falling or something, well that’s what i heard it was anyway.
i would try again for a few nights and if it keeps happening then you should probably try another method first and try WILD later.
