Thread: I'm scared to do a WILD?

How are the hallucinations any different than dreaming?

Its Weird you say that... I've experienced some sort of Wolf like Creature in Sleep Paralysis.

One night I looked at the edge of my bed and seen this wolf and it jumped on my bed. I Shut my eyes because it was so frightning. While my eyes were closed I felt it touch my right shoulder, then my left shoulder.

The thing i try to remember everytime it happens now is I think to myself "I don't get scared at Horror Films just a bit Jolted, so why am i getting scared now". hope this might help.

You just need to stay completely relaxed. Act as if you aren't even there. Your nothing but a thought. The more you think about other things, the less you are focusing on your goal.

I have read a few scary things on the subject, but you have to just go for it. Most people just see colors, that falling feeling, or faint whispers. I only see the colors and the falling feeling

Remember, it can't hurt you. You can always open your eyes to break it off. Just try and go for it

Anyone notice the influx of people with the word "Kitty" somewhere in their username?

If you start WILD thinking about those scary images, they are more likely to occur. Think about happy things, and remember, it's all in your head. Not real.

I haven't done a WILD yet, and I would probably have freakier hallucinations, because I would probably think about my nightmares..and in the middle of the night would make it freakier. I am going to sleep till 5-6 AM then get up for an hour at WILD at 7 when it's starting to get light out...and maybe it won't be as freaky then. Well anyway....just remember that it's all in your mind and nothing can happen.

You might not even notice any hallucinations! I never have (in my extensive experience of 3 WILDs lol), or at least, nothing strong enough that I would call it a "hallucination". It's probably different for everybody.

You never get the rolling over/ falling feeling, or see colored spots or light? Interesting...

Nope Maybe I try to influence my senses too much. -I'm always imagining myself feeling something with my imaginary hands to try and lead me into a dream, maybe that just replaces HH.

EDIT: Actually- last night, a car drove at high speed past my left ear Way to contradict myself!

Hey! It was the best I could do one short notice. XD

Well, don't knock it 'till you try it. I was also terrified my first couple of tries, but I haven't experienced any terrifying hallucinations to date and it doesn't look like I'm going to. Plus, most people don't experience full fledged SP during WILDs anyways, and if they say they do they don't know what they're talking about.

Good luck to you.

I've experienced hallucinations many times over during SP, including feeling a knife being stabbed into my neck and a bee stinging me. Those are the freakiest things to experience, IMO. Everything else is easy once you experience these things! I suggest just imagining yourself in your bed alone, relaxed, and also picture yourself from the viewpoint of someone if they'd walk into the room - they'd see you perfectly asleep and calm.

Good luck! ^^

TY. I'll try it tonight.

I don't want to invoke fear or anything, but I thought I'd share a little dream experience with you all. I took a brief nap on the couch the other day, and I awoke to a strange sensation of being gazed down upon by a shadowy entity faintly resembling my aunt, though she was donned in clothes close to that of a vagabond. I remember the upper part of her face, mainly her eyes and the surrounding parts, which were veiled in shadow.

As if this wasn't weird. I also remember hearing strange noises emanating from the stairs. They were trampling noises; as if someone of considerable weight were coming up the stairs in a sluggish manner. Suddenly, a white bald head entered my vision as I looked at the stairway, but it disappeared shortly after - as if 'it' knew it was being watched - and then I snappd out of the rigidness of sleep paralysis.
