Thread: FILD... Scary Experience... REM While Awake?!

OK, had I read the FILd tutorial I would have seen the part where it talks about the eye movement and actually remember that tends to happen. Well, imagine my surprise when I feel to a half-sleep state so fast that I kinda surprised myself.

Then the waking REM, which is what it felt like. OK at first I was slightly disoriented but decided to go with it. Then as it grew in intensity, I got worried because my eyes were freaking out without my control. Eventually, it just got too scary and I aborted. But see the thing is that since then, two days ago, it feels like if I keep my eyes closed for too long they'll start fritzing. Today, I've been more willing to let it happen but it's quite a startler. Eh.

Had that a few times :p

Also at the same time my heart rate goes thru the roof and my blood feels hot?

Good fun tho xD

Yeah, that's exactly how I felt.

Try to enjoy it. Just think...not many people get to experience this

Eh, I don't know about that. Rapid twitching of the eyeballs kinda creeps me out. That's supposed to happen in sleep, not waking time. It's just too weird for me.

Thats what the FILDing and WILDing is all about though. Staying concious through all these weird things that happen when you are normally asleep.

Just think about it, "ooh my eyeballs are moving fast!!!" Its really no big deal =P
