Performing WILD inside a dream? Total mess :(

If it’s too long for you, perhaps you can just skip to the questions directly.

OK, so I had my first, tiny, short LD this morning. In past two weeks I finally started to go WILD. Three times the same happened to me: I started to feel strong(!) vibrations, looked around but the scenery was dark and I saw nothing. Frustrated I woke up. Only in the morning I realized all three times I woke up back to ND and I was actually thinking about trying WILD inside a ND.

This morning I tried the Suneye method. I could only do it for a while, because it was clearly disturbing me and I couldn’t fall asleep. I stopped trying and there I had this early morning dream: we were playing basketball in the gym. Suddenly I was lying in the bed again but somehow still connected to the basketball dream. So I told myself: let’s think about the dream for a while and try to reenter it. I remember I could do some crazy dunks with the ball in some previous ND’s, so I imagined dunking the ball to the basket again and again. I even told my friends at the gym: if you can see me jumping 3 meters to the air, than this is a dream. And there was it: a crazy jump, a dunk and I even followed the ball through the basket. All of me, hands first, legs last. I realized I am dreaming and the jump was feeling just incredible.

What came next were the vibrations. I realized I am lying in the bed again, my mouth full of saliva and due to vibrations, all of the saliva pouring from mouth, making the bed wet and I am completely paralyzed. I felt ashamed and … I woke up again to a completely dry bed and dry mouth not paralyzed at all.

Questions:

1.Does anybody have the same experience: failing to perform WILD while falling assleep, but later on, inside a dream thinking about lucid dreaming and performing techniques inside a dream?

2.You are supposed to get vibrations while falling asleep with WILD. Am I having vibrations while falling asleep for the second time inside a dream or am I just thinking so much about WILDing, that I imagine having these vibrations?

3.Seems like I am getting closer to the state of awareness, but things just happen to me in wrong order … not accordind to the book, just total mess. I think for a while: You are getting crazy because of this LD stuff! And I wake up. I will try to overcome this, but perhaps: any ideas how to stabilize these weird states and turn them into LD ?

This experience happened to me too. I can’t WILD, but I dreamt twice that I succeeded in WILD’ing and it was the begining of a LD.

It’s very hard to answer your second question. You may have WILD sensations during a LD or even a ND. But it’s possible too that you thought so much about WILD’ing and imagine these sensations.

About your third question, what technique are you talking about? If it’s WILD, it’s quite normal IMO. Everybody develops their own technique, according to the way they fall asleep and the kind of HH they have. No book can summarize this. It’s total mess, as you say! :happy:

Thanks for your reply. In past days I found few other people talking about actually entering LD’s while falling asleep inside a running dream.

It always helps to hear about other people experiencing the same, I hope it will make me recognize these states more often to achieve awareness.
