      Unhappy We Just Can't Seem To Do It

      No matter how much I try, I just can't WILD. I've waited to post this because I decided it would be best to read the responses from other WILD threads. But I've found no help there.

      I've tried pretty much everything. Nothing works. Here is a list of things that I've tried:

      • WILDing before bed
      • WILDing after a WBTB (Varies from 3 hours of sleep to 6)
      • Counting my breaths
      • Just breathing
      • Visualizing my dream
      • Focusing on the lights in my eyelids
      • Not focusing on them
      • Listening to music
      • Inducing a "sinking" or relaxing feeling
      None of those have worked. The closest I have gotten was when it feels like I'm being moved around from side to side, and my heart beats really hard. But then it fades away. People have told me that it's not the end and that I should keep going, but since that advice I haven't been able to reach that point again.

      Any help is appreciated.

      *Edited title to include the other people who can't seem to WILD.

      Success comes to those who are not afraid of failing.

      Yep, I'm in the same boat. I'd appreciate some help too.
      In dreams of unspeakable joy—of restored friendships; of revived embraces; of love which said it had never died; of faces that had vanished long ago, yet said with smiling lips that they knew nothing of the grave; of pardons implored, and granted with such bursting floods of love, that I was almost glad I had sinned—thus I passed through this wondrous twilight. —George MacDonald

      I'm in that club too.

      I only managed to have several DILDs and they were...poor.

      Believe you can or believe you can't... either way, you're right.

      I don't trust anyone who claims that he/she is not a pervert as much as I don't trust anyone who says that he/she doesn't believe in love.
