wierd things that happen while trying to LD

A lot of times, when I try to get lucid at night (hasn’t worked yet :sad: ), wierd things happen. Like, one night I was trying WILD and my leg started to tingle, then it spread to the rest of my body and it felt really wierd. Another wierd thing that happens is that random muscles suddenly twitch. Is this a hallucination, a side effect of trying to lucid dream, or should I go to the doctor :tongue: ?

hehehe, no, some of that happens to me too, just ignore them and don’t fear.

ohhh thats just natural body movments.
i occasionally get twiches as I fall asleep.
and the tingling, thats just like when your foot falls asleep, it goes numb, if you dont move for a while, but stay awake it just happens sometimes.

Just natural stuff.

And you’re so willing for something to happen, it seems that everything going on is because you’re trying to have a lucid dream, but it’s just normal stuff.

It’s absolutely normal that weird things happen when you try to WILD. You are in the hypnagogic state and you may experience HH (hypnagogic hallucinations).
But IMO, what you experienced sounds just natural body reactions. Thus it’s a side effect of WILD (and not of lucid dreaming, because when you DILD, you don’t have this weird stuff).
