Well...I think I got somewhere!

First, I didn't know what to do to WILD and didn't get anywhere.

Then, I knew what to do with WILD but still didn't get anywhere.

Lately, I've been getting somewhere with WILD but now I don't know what I'm doing!

Let me explain. I've tried a WILD technique when I first get up where I inhale slowly while counting. The two times it worked, I wasn't exactly sure if I even did a WILD.

This morning, I woke up and started counting and breathing. Here's where I think I'm messing up. Between the time I stop counting and realize I'm dreaming, I can't remember what happened! I don't remember seeing HI or anything or going through SP. I just find my way in the dream! This leaves me unsure as to what I did or how exactly I did it. This morning, I stopped counting about 50 seconds in...then the next thing I know I did a successful RC and was trying to bust my way through my bedroom door. I was in my bedroom when I did the RC!

I hope somebody understands what I'm talking about.

Could it be that just laying back and counting with the intention to LD is doing it? Or did I just end up combining MILD with WILD, by falling asleep unconsciously, relaxed by the counting, set with the intention to LD?

I did put it down as a WILD because this is the second time something like this happened and I did end up in my bedroom in the LD, like some people report. But has anyone ever ended up WILDing like that?

A similar thing happened to me. I was lying there counting my breaths, when I pinched my nose and found I could still breathe through it. I didn't remember any transition at all, so I thought I did it wrong and I just sat there and wasted the lucid.

This morning I started real prepared. My alarm woke me up at 6, I read a bit about LDing on Dream Views, and I went back to sleep with the intent to WILD.

And guess what? It happened again. I had an LD (a rather weak one) and I am still not sure how I did it!

First, I tried the deep breaths and counting again. Sure enough, I can't remember what happened...then I remember visualizing something. I do remember being on the border between a daydream and a real dream, if you can tell what I'm talking about. Maybe that's what I ended up doing?

Anyone ever have the same happen to them when trying to WILD?
