I have been trying WILDs combined with WBTBs and have not yet had a WILD lucid dream, I've only had two very fuzzy LDs total, both occuring after I had fallen asleep while attempting a WILD. I feel that I am in the transition stage because dream fragments start occuring and I have all the other effects omitting hypnogogic sounds.
Is there anyone out there that has this problem? I usually give up after 35 minutes or so...am I being too impatient? I am on the threshold but not quite through the door.

Im beginning to think that WILD is still a little tricky for a novice such as myself, so I want to begin trying another method. There are so many in the tutorial section I dont know where to start. I have a dream recall of about 1 dream a night. What is the most effective method for a beginner to get a clear lucid dream?
