So I've been in to lucid dreaming for a year now. At first it went pretty well and I had approx 1 lucid dream per week. But then I stopped doing daily checks and the little lucid skills I had vanished.
But this morning made a change to that. First of all, I've never accomplished WILD, so I never tried either. It's becasue I've had difficulties with sleeping since I can remember. I always think too much. But I think the experience I had today is essentially WILD in one of its stranger designs. I maybe should say that I had taken 6mg melatonin the night before so maybe that is the explanation of my experience. Now, I'm not sure if it was WILD or not.
It was morning and I decided whether to skip the first lesson of school and sleep some more. Now I am happy I took that decision. It actually took long for me to try to sleep again, it ususally shouldn't in the mornings. Nevertheless out of nowhere, I felt my foot being dragged over my bed. I thought it was pretty weird and even though I tried to resist it still felt like someone dragged it. Then it felt as if I fell out of the bed but in same time not. I tried RCing and success! I could breathe through a pinched nose. It was then, I entered the loop of false awakenings. I was of course lucid, I was from the beginning of the dream and flew off from my room. But I couldn't stabilize that good so I always got "reset" back to my room even though I was still lucid. The rest of the story is me stuck in a loop not knowing what is reality or what is a dream. Of course that sounds scary and schizophrenic, but it was one of the most awesome experiences I've had.
Now the weird thing is that sometimes throughout my dream I could neither open my eyes or move my hand. It made worried for it felt like I was conscious of being unconscious how weird that sounds. And one time I paniced for I saw spiders or ants crawling to my face. I couldn't move at first (sleep paralysis?) but then I jumped off bed and still saw the ants. But then I remembered dreaming.
If this was WILD I hope I can try to achieve it again. The sensation that my foot moved acutally happened alot throgh my dream so maybe I can use that as an RC when I'm in bed? I should probably give all the credit to the melatonin but I really hope I'll be able to do it on my own sometime.
