      Hey!!/Help

      This is my first post so i wish to say a warm hello to everyone!

      I was wondering if some people could help me, i have been trying to induce a WILD for a while now, but most of the time just when i am getting into it i begin to experience the usual sensations (hallucinating, vibrations and "whispers") but i always get really freaked out and my mind wanders and i stop it.
      I really panic/get really scared when it happens, so was wondering if anybody has any tips to stay calm and regain focus. will this "fear" go away with time/practice or should i just try another method.

      thanks for any help and hello!

      If you are making it that far into your WILD, you are doing great. I would not mix things up too much. Like you mentioned, the fear should go away as you become more comfortable with the bizarre feeling.

      If you are into such things, you can say a little protective prayer or mantra. Repeat to yourself that you are safe, or imagine yourself protected by some powerful force of goodness and peace.

      I still get frightening hallucinations all the time. I try to embrace them, or give them kindness and love. For example, if a monster is standing over my bed, I reach out to it and ask for it to help me up. If some crazy succubus is biting me, I start making out with her. Stuff like that.

      I thought that was funny, the demons of love.

      I may try using WILD a few times myself now.

      The fear will go away, I now love the feeling of SP and all of the hallucinations (wish I had more time for it ) You could try WBTB and MILD to get a few more LDs under your belt and then try WILD again. What time are you trying to WILD? You have to do it at the right time. Check out the WILD tutorial, we got a nice long one.
