Hi there,

I have been trying to lucid dream for like... 1 month already? And ive tried all kind of ways to do it. Yet, it didnt work at all. I do remember my dreams alot more now but i never had any feeling i was close to it... Until this morning.

I woke up too early this morning, so i got back to sleep. I was thinking about some stuff and then i thought about a technique i heard about earlier, i think it was the WILD technique? I dont know but you had to wake up like 6 hours after sleeping and then when you wake up either count yourself back to sleep or stay up for 1 hour thinking about lucid dreaming only. Well when i tried to get back in sleep, i started counting like 1 im dreaming, 2 im dreaming, 3 im dreaming, 4 im dreaming, etc

And my goal was to count like that to 120. At around 98, i started to feel numb in my legs and arms and around 105 my mind was slowly wandering away and i heard something weird popping out of nowhere. but then when i was at 114 a big truck suddenly just drive by my house and i suddenly opened my eyes because of that. I was kinda dissapointed that happened because i had the feeling i was close to either sleep paralysis or lucid dreaming.

Does this actually mean i was close to LD-ing? That is my question, at last
