Thread: Wild=(what kinda) Scary?

I think the only scary thing when doing a WILD are the possible audio and visual hallucinations.

Some people say that they hear someone yelling right beside them, or the visualize different thing. Recently, I've noticed that when I'm really tired, and I open my eyes, there sometimes appears to be a spider on the wall, when theres actually not.

If you have ever walked into a haunted house, think of it this way: You did that for fun, why not do another, scarier thing for fun? Except, this time you also get an LD! That's how I overcome my fear of WILD. Oh, and to me the scariest thing is the feeling of people grabbing me.

The sensations you have, may be scary at first, just because they're unfamiliar to you. That doesn't stay long though.

Oh, let's see, what has scared me?

- sometimes vibrations feel genuinely like a seizure
- sometimes vibrations feel like a heart attack
- sometimes when you're in SP you feel like you're suffocating
- lead blanket
- paralysis is unnerving in general

Of course, none of the aforementioned effects happen if you do a WILD properly.

According to me, what makes a WILD worth to try is the "scary" part, you can't move, hear weird things, see weird things, feel like dying/heavy/floating/etc, its just fun to me. Then again its affected by the subconcient, so if you expect to see funny things, funny things may appear, or so the rumors say <.<

Ok, but what things have happened to you? What have you seen? Heard? Felt?

Oh right forgot the important part...
Feel:
Extremly heavy, like the bones will break.
Nothing... which according to me feels like floating.
With no strenght, therefore moving is weird (not full SP tough)
Strong vibrations/energy, that kind of tickles <.<

Hear:
Whispers, never understand them.
Someone yelling, which if I focus enough, will sound the same as someone asking for help.
A really long biiiiiiip until I fall asleep or move.

See:
Colors.
Orbs of light.

And I think thats all, nothing scary tough, annoying but not scary.

is it like scary whispers?
Doesn't the screaming for help freak the hell out of you?!?!?

Well, the whispers sound kinda dark, which is cool.
And the screaming is... only annoying.
I would get scared if the images were more vivid and about real things tough lol

Have you ever been thrown through space at the speed of light? Well thats what I felt. Its like that sinking feeling you get on a roller coaster but it lasts much longer. I like it... a lot.

Oh, and I hear atoms being ripped to pieces. Lots of primordial explosions and such.

im proud to say that i've had just a couple WILDs before (4). And because of the scary warnings and whatnot, i've never opened my eyes during the sleep paralysis section. Since i'm not seeing things, my bouts of sleep paralysis are way fun and not scary. I hear really loud ringing noises of varying frequencies and then i feel my body spin and twist all over and really really fast.

will keeping my eyes closed really help? i thought i wouldnt be able to move 'em and threy would already be closed

Yea. When I had a WILD, I got SP and began hearing the overwhelming loud buzzing. Like "BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ" (For a long period of time). It was super loud! It sounded like it was in my ears. I was then warped to a scene (LD starts) But other than that it's not really scary. I wasn't that scared really. Maybe a little lol. Nothing to be afriad about tough. Nothing can harm you during a WILD. I even want to do a WILD again.

While the buzzing was going on, I had this huge vibration/painless eletricticty going through me. When I stoped thinking on the Tactial Sences, the buzzing and vibrations went away. But a second later, I though about me driving a car and the vibrations and buzzing came back. Do any of you guys know how to explain this?
