Hi. I've been trying lucid dreaming since I joined this forum. Only about 4 I can remember so far, but.. Anyways. I have some random questions.. If anyones got answers to any of the below, feel free to answer! opinions also appreciated.

First off.. My first W.I.L.D!! Alright! I used that item method, where you focus on an object..(using this magnetic rock thing I used to have just sitting on my dresser, for anyone who is curious) Anyways. I really like it, I like it a lot more than the normal LDs because I find I have more time, with DILDs- when I realize I'm dreaming its usually half way through a dream, or really close to the time I have to wake up. Anyways. So this is what happened. I closed my eyes, was repeating things, telling myself things about what the LD would be like, etc. Then I gave up after a while. So then I opened my eyes. and it was the craziest thing, the feeling of all the limbs being numb (like when you start to fall asleep) was still there! My dream eyes must have been closed or something!! I was so excited! I opened my eyes right into the dream! Anyway, throughout the short LD, my limbs constantly felt numb and it kind of felt weird to feel both my "dream" limbs and my real limbs at the same time.. Is there anyway to get rid of that "asleep" feeling in the limbs?

Sorry about that big paragraph. Anyway. Next.. What do I do if I want to stop dreaming? Is there anyway I can end a dream without waking up and going back to sleep? Probably not. Maybe I'm just being weird.

Something else, it only happened during my first LD and one other time, but. I think both my real eyes and my "dream" eyes were open at the same time! It was very strange, I could see my ceiling out of the corner of my eyes, yet around the center of my vision I could still see my dream.. Is this what you call an "unstable" dream? Is there anyway special way to close my real eyes and just keep my dream eyes open? I tried but I woke myself up

Anyways. Thanks anyone in advance.
