WILD help, transitioning into the dream.

I don't know if this is the right section but anyway...

The past few days I have been trying to do a WILD by taking a nap, I feel like I have been 90% successful, but I can't transition into the dream.

I go into sleep paralysis, then a few minutes later (if I am tired enough) I start to go semi conscious and start falling asleep. The problem is I can feel when I start to transition into the dream. It is almost like a jolt of energy and my hearts starts to beat quicker, my breathing starts to speed up and it becomes difficult to relax. I end up trying to force myself into the dream and it doesn't work. I try to control my breathing voluntarily but once I start doing that I become too conscious to easily go into the dream.

After this happens my energy level rises significantly and I can't just go back into a relaxed state. This seems like mostly a mental block, any tips would be appreciated.

Well, don't force yourself, it's counterproducitve. Also tend to do RCs so if you fall asleep you might have chance for DILD. Specifically for your problem it seems that you are too aware of SP and that that is keeping in you from proceeding. Try to feel SP more objectively, but not too much, you don't want to be not aware that you are entering a dream.
