Hello, I'm new, I've actually been interested in LD the past few days, I don't recall having any LDs throughout my life, but I do recall one time realizing that I was in a dream, when I was around 8 or 9, anyways, so to get this out of the way, I'm a bit Impatient, which causes me to think that I can LD at random when I sleep, even without my DJ, which I haven't actually started yet by the way. Anyways, I don't know why, but last night I felt the urge to try to WILD last night, before I went to bed, I don't know why, but I tried it. Well I used the method BillyBob was talking about, in the process I start getting this Absolutely aggravating itch of my cheek, and I'm concentrating real hard on not scratching, simply by visualizing the numbers I'm counting in my head. For some reason, Out of the Blue, My ears just completely shut off, it literally felt like someone had stuck something over them, it made a sound kind of like a low frequency pop and all sound was gone, now due to my newbiness, I hop 20ft out of my bed, slapping myself in the head, cause it scared the crap out of me. I was just wondering if this happens to anyone else, cause I haven't seen any threads about WILDs in which someones ears just shut off. Thanks for reading, I hope to post more as I actually start to LD.
