The wild technique.

[hellohihello]

I really want to try this but I stop at sleep paralysis. I don't even get to the hallucinations either, it just like stops progressing. I know it is sleep paralysis because it is like a lead blanket that starts at my feet and i get sorta dizzy like. My heart just starts racing for no reason,not excited or anything. I also read the technique sticky on them but how do I know when to transition? Thanks, the new guy.

Heh, I'm stuck there too. I get these feelings over and over, but it just doesn't progress. I keep feeling dizziness in random parts of my body for ever, and nothing happens.

Sounds like your both almost in full SP but not quite. It really is quite impossible to mistake once you've felt it. There are numerous recent threads on SP. Worth searching and checking out. Are you trying to wild first thing after going to bed? If so it is likely you will get stuck, as it takes a while for the 1st rem period to hit. Which is why WILD after WBTB is the most common advice on this forum. Keep at it. Best of luck.

Moonshine, I've tried my WILD after 5 hours of sleeping (my REM cycles are not 90 mins), so I did use WBTB. More than that, I've been trying to WILD for 70 minutes, which is almost a full cycle, and still nothing happened.

I did it a few times before bed and a few times 4 and a half hours later, still nothing but I will check out the threats that you said. Thanks!
