Thread: What Sleep Paralysis Is, and Why You Don't 'Need' It to WILD

^ Ohhh~ I'll have to try that...
But as for the "Cure" I meant not just for when LDing,
For anytime. I get SP chronically, its pretty agitating >: (
Its usually after I wake up from already sleeping, but lately its upon trying to sleep. Bleh.

Sorry to hear that. Yeah I'll bet its not much fun.
I had one WILD experience which was a bit rougher than normal.
I felt a nasty presence and someone roughly touching my body.
Even though I knew it was all in my head, I was glad to get into the dream.

The only advice I could give (based on what i've read on DV) is to close your eyes and try and enter a dream.

Or if you want to break the paralysis I've read that starting with moving your fingertips helps.

Yeah...I have that "disorder" too. A good deal of the time I can turn it into a LD. Other times I'm just struggling to get out of it because I feel like I can't breath or move.

And shift, I'm glad you made this post to clarify things related to SP and ISP. Hopefully we'll see some other clarification throughout the site. I have suffered from ISP all of my life, and the more I think about it, the more I question my own ability to WILD....maybe my technique is total crap.
