Thread: Nit-picky brain don’t want none of that

Sometimes I do this on purpose, other times by accident. But whatever the case, I always seem to get “stuck” somewhere.

I’ve never experienced a full-blown WILD before. I always have problems at the hypnagogia part. I can kinda tell my body is dozing off, cause my limbs feel numb, but once the hypnagogia kicks in, my brain is like “Wtf no. I don’t wanna.” I see dream scenes, sometimes even briefly step into them, but as soon as I get close enough, my brain retracts, and I’m back to watching limbo.

It’s like putting your foot in water to check the temperature and pull it back out if it’s too hot/cold. That’s what my mind is doing. It won’t just pick a scene, it keeps jumping out. So I always give up and just go to sleep (if my mind allows it, cause sometimes hypnagogia is too distracting).

Also, how long does this phase normally last for?
