      WTF was that? (Maybe I was wilding on accident?)

      Alright guys. I just got up from a freaky experience and I wanna know what it was.

      For some background that might be important, I just stopped taking Tylenol 3 with codeine. It was making sleep like crazy. (I did get dreams though). I literally slept 48 hours straight on my first intake and the length of sleep reduced significantly afterwards but was more frequent (I was living on naps really..)

      This is the first night after I stopped (more than 24 hours ago). I went to bed not really tired. I was doing some visualization for entertainment until I kinda dozed off but not really (my mind was still up.) I found myself in some sort of obstacle course I was going through. At this point that was half my visualization and half my mind on it's own creating it. So I was going through the obstacle course when I suddenly decided to move my arm in a more conscious way. at which point I see my dream hand move. I was like "This is sweet! I guess that's WILD?" at that point everything went blurry, I fell down on my ass and looked around. There were 2 big black dogs right next to me (not really paying attention to me, just lying there) and I hear a voice singing a song that doesn't really exist as far as I know that says "It's a dog eat dog world" over and over again. At this point I'm freaking out so i'm like "Ok... I'm gonna wake up! So I try to no avail. I start listening for some sign of the waking world and I hear my computer fan so i'm like "That's it! That's where I need to go!" At this point I felt a really big jolt kind of like electricity going through me and I wake up, do a RC (I'm really awake), go get some water and come here to type this.

      I'm not sure if this was a WILD or something I should worry about. Don't get me wrong, it was an awesome experience.... now that I'm out of it. It should be important to note that this was no WBTB or anything.. this is straight out going to bed for the first time at night.
      So i;m kind of freaked out, but kind of feel awesome! It seems like progress but it wasn't anything that was described to be about and falling asleep state. there was no HH (or HI, whichever comes when you fall asleep) I didn't feel a distinct moment SP started... I just drifted from Visualization to something I can only assume was a dream...

      That was, indeed, a WILD. Now, you should get used to weird, what-the-fudge dreams when you start studying about Lucid Dream, you get better recall, you can remember those weird fucked-up dreams. But yours was pretty normal as far as fucked-up goes, so don't worry.

      It wasn't the dream itself that was f*ed up.. it was the experience itself...

      So you were conscious inside the dream and tried to make yourself wake up? If you were conscious enough to search for a sound to pull you out of the dream, why not just stay there and enjoy your lucid dreamworld?

      The dream was going away, I was losing control of my body in the dream (Which is why I feel down) and fear got over me. It's just something I need to work on if/when it happens again.

      I must say congratulations. I think I will stop taking naps. May be a good idea
      Some people WILD better directly to bed, very few but I think I'm one of them as
      well. *High fives*.

      It sounds like a WILD. As long as you didn't lose consciousness transitioning from waking life to the dream state, it was indeed a WILD. Congrats, and keep practicing. Soon you will be able to extend those dreams and overcome that slight fear. Nice job!

      This was all unintentional... I've fallen into SP consciously fr a while now... depending on the night. It's just the transition part that was new.

      I thought WILD on the first time going to bed at night was impossible due to sleep cycles...?

      Rare/hard to do, but not impossible. Chances seem to be better if you didn't have a lot of sleep the night before. You catch some REM rebound. I've done it a few times, but usually the LDs aren't as good (in my experience anyway). Not as vivid, long, and they seem a bit...disconnected. Yeah, with WILDing you will get a lot of opportunities that are unintentional. Now that you have transitioned, it will start to get easier and easier for you to complete transitions.
