Ok. I was trying the "How to trick your body into falling asleep meathod". I went to bed, and waited. I resisted all the urges. Next came the pain. It felt like somebody was stabbing a hot knife into my pelvis. At first it felt kinda good. After I was half paralized, it started hurting really bad. I tried to ignore it, but I rolled over, and it stopped, but I was still half paralized. I waited a lot longer, and I became fully paralized. I could even open my eyes and stay paralized! Now, I just had to wait for the dream to come. I waited for about an hour, and nothing came. I opened my eyes, and thought I was dreaming. I stood up (for real) and them BAM! I was awake. Did I not get a dream because I wasn't in my REM period? I am typing this right after I woke up.

I kept telling myself "I wont give up, I wont give up, I wont give up"

But I dont know if I will ever try again. The pain was excrusiating (sp?)

Please tell me, how close was I? And how come i didn't get a dream?
