Thread: Can someone please tell me what happened?

Fri, 26 Dec 2014:

I had been awake in the morning and was thinking about doing the fild method but I had to piss too much to try. So I ended up falling asleep and I remember the dream very well ; I was in a room with my friend tommy and he was telling me that I need to put my hands out further away from my hips when he was showing me how to do fild. (I already knew how to do it) acting like he knew all about it. Once he told me to start trying I remember I kept thinking and saying to my self get ready and I'm about to lucid dream and trying to make beats in my head to my fingers moving. Within 10 seconds of falling asleep doing FILD. I remember something just hitting me not physically but it felt like I fell asleep in my head and then I kept moving my fingers for a bit longer concentrating really hard cos it was really weird and difficult as soon I knew that I had done was ready to perform reality check I couldn't move. I couldn't pick my hand up to block my nose but I'm not sure if I tried blocking my gland at the back of my throat and tried breathing through it, I think I did, the either way I knew I was dreaming on a low to medium level. I kept trying to move and think of a different dream land and stuff like that. Then I had a quick deep thought and said to my self what have I read about people getting stuck or having no control in there dreams and for some reason I thought that I read a post that you spin around but obviously that was impossible because I was lying down and stuck probably in sleep paralysis some how in my dream. Either way I knew I was dreaming to some extent. But now when I think about it my eyes were closed that whole time and I don't remember seeing anything at except when i was frozen I tried imagining a big green grass field and said to my self when i open my eyes i will be there but once i opened my eyes i was in a random room? Anyways i just want to know what happened because this is the closest thing of being lucid i have ever been.

I have only tried the finger thing like 2 times, but I have never succeed in WILD type, except one possible DEILD (I'll have to do it again to be sure tho)

But I have become paralyzed inside a dream, it happens when I enter the void, and then try rubbing my hands together, I start out fine, but then my right hand won't move at all, then my left, and then slowly each finger as I rub them against the paralyzed hand, until last to go is my left pinky finger. When I am awake I tell myself when this happens just issue verbal commands or whistle but in the void I never try these things. I have survived the VOID a few times before tho, usually takes only 20 or 30 seconds before sight returns
