Thread: I just WILD'd!

OMG, awesome! haha

So for lunch I had a hot pocket pepperoni, Nature Valley granola bar (honey and oats), hot cheetoes, and an Apricot Kerns (fruit drink). That was around 12ish

So was watching TV and decided I'd try to take a nap. I wasn't feeling all that tired, but MILDing just hasn't been working

So started in a upright fetal position (TV was on). Started with HI that was like waves of light. Like imagine looking down upon a pond and someone's making waves, but the waves are light. Maybe this HI can be attributed as I was at the beach yesterday? My HI is usually spots of light then color. While doing this, I was counting (got up to 90ish. Once I started HI, I decided to switch to thinking "I am lucid"), HI later turned to a light blue and washed over, and dark objects trying to form, but nothing happened

That didn't work, so turned off the TV and just layed flat (I'm on the couch). Tried that for a bit but was feeling uncomfortable so layed on my side in a crouched position ( I know King Yoshi does this where he changes position after every 10mins and seems to work well for him. I didn't plan on changing, but seems to have worked for me as well)

I don't remember any HI, but I'm suddenly standing on my parent's bathroom counter/ sink. There's a huge mirror which I see myself in and I looked normal. I had an expression of questioning I think I could describe it as (head cocked slightly like a dog). I decided to lift the roof off my house (I have had this occur before... the want to lift the roof of my house or other places, lol). I was struggling at first, legs shaking. Then like magic, the weight of the roof became almost nothing and I lifted it up! But I wasn't centered properly and instead of the house lifting straight up, I sort of went up, and shifted sideways. You know how your adrenalin kick in and your heart skips a beat when something happens, or if you're driving and you catch someone pulling over on you? I got that same feeling when the roof went to the side.

I happened to look at my right hand as saw that my silver paper wrist band was on it even though it's actually on my left wrist, but I don't think that was my trigger. I just told myself, "I'm dreaming. Let's fix this." I then got immense ringing in my ears. I started to push up on the roof to reposition it. I then started to loose the dream and started to wash out and said, "Hold on a second. Let's relax and regain." The ringing went away and the dream started to reform (washed out color now). Then the ringing came back and I knew I was going to loose it. Dream washed out while ringing persisted. I tried to keep it, but then it changed to almost this perspective of me flying towards my front door. View was tunneled with soft light and soft focus. I approached the door and then woke up

I then exlaimed, "Yah! All right, finally!" and jumped on here

Now, before I go to bed, I try to recite my "I know when I am dreaming" or "I will become lucid" mantras, but I've never become lucid for a MILD/ DILD, but then when I really didn't recite my mantra (when I was in my 3rd position coz I just rolled over and started counting) when in my dream I just thought, "I'm dreaming" and became lucid, why is that? It just seemed weird. Maybe because my mantra was still in my head and I fell into REM very quickly?

Anyway, I'm still really excited. Finally had an LD after 3wks of trying. It was a 2min dream and I was lucid for about a min of it, so that's very cool. Maybe I should try WILDing again after a lunch and try it again. Maybe WILDing is best for me
