I was listening to a lucid mp3 last night to try and get myself lucid (I'venever been lucid before) and i think i may have had some sleep paralysis. I was lying in bed listening to the track for maybe 20 min. and was getting pretty sleepy when both my arms started to feel very heavy and eventually went "numb" I could not feel them anymore. It should also be noted that this did not happen to my legs. Anyways, I was sleeping on my stomach with the left half of my face touching the pillow. Suddenly, I felt my eye's starting to move back and forth extremely fast and I started to see things on my eyelids. It is hard to explain what I saw but I will do my best to explain it. It looked like someone was drawing on the back of my eyelids with a pen that had whiteish green flashing ink. Very weird I know. I started to get a bit excited and thoguht that I was about to enter a dream and finally become lucid. I guess my excitement got the better of me and I became more awake and lost the sensation. I tried moving my arms and found I could move them but it was hard. After about a minute I was back to normal.

Was I about to enter a dream? If I kept going would this have been a WILD? When my eyes moved quickly was this a REM period? Thanks in advance,
