Hi everyone. Just this morning I was having a really wierd dream...I small volcano formed in our backyard and I had to light a fuse in our gas grill to set the volcano off. I lit the fuse, stepped back a few feet, and then the grill blew up and killed me. My vision was jerky when it blew up and I flew back...
Well as soon as it blew up, the dream started to fade quickly, and I knew I was waking up. Instead of trying to stay in the dream(I wonder if I could of, I was dead...wonder what would happen if I stayed in the dream while lucid), I thought that I might as well try to do an DEILD. The dream faded all the way, and I didn't move my body or eyes(and kept them shut). I just layed their for 5 seconds, and then I suddenly felt really wierd....can't explain it. It didn't feel like when I was enterying SP. I have only started to enter SP before, and it didn't feel like this.( I felt all tingly, was hard to breath, and my heart was racing when I entered SP but wrecked it with the breathing). So, I felt really wierd for 5-10 seconds. I heard wierd techno-science fiction noises..HI? I did not know what I was suppossed to concentrate on. The tutorials say it is a lot easier to enter the dream you just exited, but I was dead in that, so I didn't want to waste the chance if I just woke up from the dream because I was dead. I instead thought about my friend. No details about where we would be or what we would be doing, just my friend. So I thought about that for 5-10 seconds. Then I heard a tick, and the wierd feeling and noises stopped. Not a clock like tick...tck. I laid there for another 10 seconds, then wondered if I should lay still and try to WILD, or check if I was in a FA kind of. I did the nose RC, and then looked at my watch...7AM. I then tried to WILD, and laid perfectly still for an hour and then couldn't bear the uncomfortableness so I quit.

I didn't really get excited during it, although it was a little freaky...hearing noises that weren't there. My heartbeat was a little faster, but I just kept on breathing normally, unlike when I tried to WILD.

So a few questions....
-Does it matter what you think about when you feel wierd? What should I think about

-Did I wreck it, thinking about my friend? I hoped that I would enter a dream with my friend in it.

-Do you experience visual HIs when doing a DEILD? Or are you suddenly just in a dream?

Please help. I don't think it was because I was at the end of a REM cycle, because I got that wierd feeling and heard noises. I at least started to DEILD right? did I somehow wrech it. Please ask any questions.
