I am obviously doing something wrong now.
So, last night I attempted to WILD before sleeping, (Yea yea blahblahblah that's stupid. I was impatient I didn't wanna WBTB D: ) and I laid there for what seemed like 2 hours and nothing happened, sure I lost feel of my limbs, but nothing would come after that, and then after I quit trying, I woke up in a weird way. Sort of like I was EXTRA aware all of the sudden and completely and fully awake. (Like more than regular life.) and could not go to sleep until 2 or something, I don't remember when I eventually drifted off, I just know I barely remembered the dream afterwords and questioned whether or not I actually went to sleep.
Did I enter the lucid state while still awake? If so, have any of you all ever become extra aware and energetic and clear-thinking after sitting in bed trying to do stuff like that?
Oh, and what do you actually feel as you WILD? I have no good indicator that I am making progress. Does swallowing and moving your jaw count as moving and a WILD breaker? I can't seem to stop, it just BOTHERS me when theres excess spit in my mouth and my mouth won't stop making it. And yet my mouth is completely dried when I wake up in the morning sometimes. Maybe I should sleep with my mouth open?
...Do you even feel anything change if you mess up with a WILD? Is there any way to know you've screwed up and moved something and that stopped the WILD?
