I've been going hard at this for 2 weeks now with me ending up in the SAME spot every time.

I lay down to go to sleep, and I sit perfectly still to the point of me feeling a shock and my limbs going numb (Is this even SP? I rarely feel anything on my chest, but it feels like I kinda get jolted into numbness). But... I don't see any HI (I did once, but I screwed it up)... sometimes I hear things, but it doesn't seem to get any more focused the longer I stay.

The thing that gets me every time is that it feels and looks like I'm in my bed looking at the window over head of me a bit after SP(I think) sets in... but it doesn't feel like I opened my eyes at all, is this normal? Whenever I do a reality check... it always comes up as me not being in a dream (unless my dreams have electricity in them).

Basically, I can feel completely numb... but there are no other indicators of when I'm going into a dream. So... how do I figure out if my attempts are successful before breaking off the attempt (Every night I've woken to turn on the lights and checking out my hands to figure out I failed :/ ).


Can anyone give me a little insight to what's actually going on? It's been driving me mad as I think I'm close to getting it successfully down.
