      body heat and WILD

      while trying to WILD without being almost unconscious to begin with, everytime without fail it feels like my body temperature rises at least four or five degrees. oftentimes i even find myself sweating profusely. anyone else experience this?

      Different people experience different sensations or sounds when falling asleep consciously. For me, I get shivers all over and I hear loud "voooophm" and buzzing sounds. Sometimes it feels like I’m getting thrown around in different directions--it's fun.

      I know what you mean mongreloctopus. Most everyone has an increased heart rate. Maybe this explains it.
      I have not had too much success either when I have gotten too hot.

      I have never experience chills. yet

      Yeah I often get hot, and due to the heat I get Itchy, which totally ruins any chance of me achieving the WILD. I just turn off the radiator and open the window fully a few hours before I go to bed, and that tends to sort out the heat problem.

      Yeah I get problems with heat alot when trying to WILD. WILDing for me is pretty much impossible already because of my medication, as I can't lie still anymore

      As I just commented on a prior post of yours Keurslager, does your medication help you lie still at night?
      I am familiar with seroquel. This is often used for psychosis or schizophrenia. But as a sedative or benzodiazepine classification, it usually has a very calming effect.

      Howetzer, I was actually intending in the post to mean I can't lie still rather because of the medication than without it. This might be a side effect of the medication, as these can cause random twitches from what I've read. I have been on several medications, including lorazepam chlorprothixene and olanzapine (a benzodiazepine and 2 neuroleptics) These definitely all have a calming effect, but in the case of the neuroleptics, the calmness is more of a zombie like slowness of mind and body than a pleasant calmness of benzodiazepines.
