I just did my first FILD attempt this morning and it worked perfectly, it's also the first method I tried that worked for me to lucid dream, normally I just LD once in 3 months as it comes naturally.

the FILD happened really fast, and I remember hearing a constant buzz and alot of sounds/voices, but I didn't mind and just let it go. There was a complete silence after that and I began opening my eyes only to notice that I was laying in my room, everything looked exactly the same as in real life, sun was shining through the windows but that was normal as it was extremely sunny when I woke up this morning. I was very disappointed because I thought it didn't work, I did the nose pinch RC and I was able to breath through it, which made me realize I was dreaming. holy shit.

I stood up and walked around my house, and everything was so realistic that i couldnt believe it, i kept doing nose pinch RC to verify that I was dreaming but it was still hard to believe.

I have a few questions:

1. I was in a 'waking up' loop. I kept 'waking up' in my bed thinking the dream was over only to realize after a while that I was still dreaming, this happened like 5-6 times. is this normal?
2. I tried to fly in my house and levitate objects but both didn't work. I was bound to gravity exactly the same way as in real life. How can I work around this?
3. This happened after 2, I was looking over my balcony and I wanted to jump off it to fly, but I didn't do it because I failed to fly earlier and I was afraid to die. What would have happened if I did it anyway?
