Hi all!
I'm new here and my names Jadyn.
I've been lurking this site for quite a while and I've finally decided to join. Now I've got a few things to say.
First of all, congratulations to whoever made this site (I missed that part) because this site is really cool and helpful.
Secondly, I've got a query. Now as I said before I've been lurking this site for quite a while, and have just been getting as much information as I could.
Now I've been gradually been trying to get a better dream recall, but I don't really have time to make a dream journal after my dreams, but is it ok if I just try to remember the gist of them in my head? Or do I physically need to write them down?
Also as I mentioned I have been reading all about the techniques and ways to get lucid, and the other night I was lying in bed unable to get to sleep as I had, had a caffeine drink earlier in the day - a 'V' if you must know- and as I lay I decided to try something. I pretty much tried the WILD induction method and lay there counting my breaths. Random thoughts kept coming into my head but I managed to get rid of them, Now I don't know when it happened but I seemed to lose all track of time and things seemed to go by real fast the I felt awake, and I was aware of myself again. All of a sudden my body felt like it was vibrating or twitching, and Images sped through my mind, they looked like shots from the t.v show Lost.
I suddenly thought is this sleep paralysis? I didn't dare trying to move just in case. Then the images started to fade and the 'Vibrations' started to slow, panicking I focused on the images and jumping into them. But unfortunately it didn't work, and they faded and I was back in my bed, I did a reality check just in case but I was awake. Firstly was that SP? And secondly I thought you only dreamed/could get lucid in the later R.E.M stages of your sleep? So what happened to me? Or was that the reason I failed?
Thanks for all your replies before I even read them as I know they will all be helpful.
