Please help me out with this, and I apologize for the super long essay...


First let me ask a question, does the WILD method only work combined with WBTB? Waking up after around 5 hours? Or you could WILD at the beginning? Or you could WILD at the start and WILD again later after 5 hours?


I was laying on my bed yesterday, WILDing at the beginning, after half an hour I feel numbness through my entire body, and slowly after the numbness I just simply not feel my body anymore, other than my consciousness.

At the same time with my eyes closed, I see an increasing amount of light/pattern in my eye lids. (phosphenes I believe) It was pitch black when I started, and slowly I see them swimming around and multiplying.

So I picture what I want to see when I open my eyes, a night sky with stars. My phosphenes formed a few very blurry faces (cute girls, don’t judge) for some reason, because I am picturing a night sky, but I know to not concentrate too much, and let my thoughts flow freely, after that, and the most important thing, I feel like I am starting to drift, I let myself drift a little more, and more and more. Soon then I opened my eyes, and yet I am still in my bed looking at my ceiling, thinking that it might be a false awakening so I did reality checks, and ta-da... I am not dreaming, I was like awe it didn’t work, so let’s try it again, but let myself drift much longer than before.

This time i felt like if I didn’t open my eyes, I would just go to sleep, so I opened my eyes with the last bit of consciousness, and TA-DA...I am still where I started, confirming that it wasn’t a false awakening, I was like Aweee, aweee awwweeeeeee


So I tried the WBTB combined with WILD after 5 hours, and did the same thing, but it was so hard to hold on to my consciousness, and the next thing I remember is waking up, performing a quick reality check, confirming that I wasn’t dreaming, then I just went off with my normal days..

What do you think?

Very sorry for the long paragraphs, but thank you very much for sticking with me till the end.

Thanks a lot for any info that might help!
