A WILD Concern.............

[Skritch]

Ok I was attempting a WILD last night for the first time. I am a natural LDer, but I have nevr had a WILD before. I think thats a lil strange. But anywho. As I was laying on my bed with my eyes closed watching the colours move around linda tripping out. A BRIGHT yeallow ring apeared for a split second. When the ring flased it felt like electricity whent through my body. I didn't know how to react, But because of this I couldnt sleep at all that night. I have been up for about 23 hours due to this. Do you think I should try a WILD again or not try it at all any more becasue of this!?

This is normal. When you enter WILD, you can experience all kinds of body hallucinations. I think It's fun, especially if you keep in mind that you'll be lucid in a few minutes. By far the most fun is either being lifted from ur body or falling through bed!

I had a similar experience in an LD once. I had gone lucid and I decided to trip on acid, so I ate a chocolate orange (don't ask, it made sense to me at the time), and I started seeing all of these weird effects and glowing shapes. Almost as if I was stuck in a screensaver. I was able to sleep the next night though, I don't know whats wrong with your circadian rhythms. Might wanna go to Wal-Mart and get it tuned up or something.

When the ring flased it felt like electricity whent through my body[/b] You were damn close. That electric feeling is what happens when you enter the dream state. The releasing of your astral body, and such. Try it again, and this time relax when that happens, and maybe try spinning your Astral Body, or moving it somehow.

The same thing happened to me when i first felt vibrations(although i had no trouble sleeping after that). When i feel the vibrations i hear a ringing sound, like when your ear rings but its louder than that. It sounds like it is compoletely surrounding me, and somtimes i'll hear voices that repeat multiple times very fast. But they never last long and shortly after you'll find your self in a lucid dream. By the way, WILD's seem to give alot of people more control because they entered the dream on a higher level of conciousness, so try it again and keep working on it.(If it results in you not being able to sleep then you should stop) Just try to relax and tell your self that its normal untill you enter a dream.

But as soon as thay lightning yellow ring flashed it electricuted me again and I paniced! I dunno whats wrong with me scence I am a natural LDer. But some thign else I noticed, once I attempt a WILD I cannot sleep at all after. I was up untill about 8 am laying stareing at my roof. I think maybe I shouldn't trya WILD any more. Well I guess I will try 1 more time and if I can get over the panic of that blasted yellow ring of ZAP! ( lol thats what I am gonna call it ) Then maybe, just maybe I can do it. Thanks for your input guys!

Maybe you are electricy charged? Who knows!? Do you have carpet or a lot of static? Maybe you are getting shocked when you "convulse."

Ok I started to induce a WILD again. This time it was different. I excepted it for what it was when the bright yellow light flashed, and for some reason when I was expecting it to flash I didn't feel and electricity sensation. Instead this time my vision whent white. But here is the kicker............ My entire body felt like it wastwisting upside down and all around. I knew my hand where flat downwards to the bed, but it felt like they were now facing up wards, and my legs felt like a sinking sencsation. After all this was said and done I could not feel my legs or arms. So I decided it ws tiem to see if I was inthe dream. I opend my eyes and the whole view of my room was dark. I could make out some stuff but I had to let my eyes adjust. As I looked around my room, I noticed that the walls floor and roof where all wavey like. Almost like they were made of water. I thought to my self. "Am I here?" At this point I was still laying on my bed looking at the roof and all over the room. My bdy felt super warm like it was super heated. I sat up. Just to find my self in a dizzy haze. I wanna know how close was I? This is confuseing. I was scared of the electricity feeling, then when I except it I get all stiff and twisted like feelings. Some one please help me!
