advice needed: how close am i to LD?

my 1st attempt of LD (after 2 weeks of doing dream recall) as i tell myself if i can remember my dream i will do a WBTB or if not i'll do a WILD, slept for 4.5hrs and wake up with alarm and seem like i past my REM period, so while my head feel heavy and still sleepy, i wake myself and walk around and weewee for about 15mins before i commence WILD.

i laid still on my back and try not to move, almost fallen asleep and the next moment hearing my partner scratching for itch, and the scratching-sound was AMPLIFIED, like those using a good 7.1 system (my 1st time feel this), i notice i have a unmoveable body next. i then knew i'm having SP and try to claim myself, after 2 time my body gave up as i couldn't fight the urge to move to relieve the feeling. i turn side way and try to do a WILD again, this time round a total different feeling, like as if someone trying to pull my soul out from me on my back.

comparing on back and side, its both heavy and uneasy for me (maybe cause 1st time), but i think i can accept the way on my back better so i turn myself back and anxiously waiting to enter my 3rd attempt of WILD. waiting & waiting with some hallucination and can even hear my clock ticking 3 meter away i wait for the SP to come. it never........ guess i'm too excited by this point of time. period (story).

Did i come close to LD?
Did i get SP?
Is the way i WILD correct?
is it OBE i'm feeling?
What can i do to relieve the excitement?

Did you get close? Mmmm yes and no. You were close, but still had little chance of actually getting there that time.
You got S.P., but not the handy kind. You seemed to be too awake for it to actually lead to anything.
From what I can tell, I think you WILD pretty well, but I'm not expert, so I won't say anything more.
More S.P. than OBE. You would know the difference if you have done them both. OBE feels much greater than just simple S.P.
Not much really, you just have to try and distract yourself, but it's near impossible. That's why WILD is for advanced people, it's not the best method to try when you are still new.

Use DILD or MILD. I know people always say that, but they say it for a reason- they are both simple, easy and generally successful.

alrighty! let me try it again tonight for a DILD or MILD if i can recall. :lol:

You were very close. It sounds like you are doing the right thing, so keep trying. If you can get to this point, you are almost there.

Yes. You're insanely close. So close the next time you try it you WILL lucid dream.

(seriously, if you can get yourself to believe that, it'll happen :) )
