Hello all this is my first thread. I attempted a WILD for the first time last night. I'm not sure if what i did was a WILD or not. (i couldn't fall asleep) What happened was i counted to keep my mind awake, i was asleep on my stomach and after about 15 minutes or so my arms and legs got really heavy, i saw some green patterns behind my eyes almost like a tunnel and i started to be really aware of every movement in my house (rain outside, dog breathing, house settling). i think this was my mistake because i had psyched myself up for hypnagogic hallucinations and i sort of freaked myself out of being able to sleep. after half an hour i gave up my counting and just went to sleep. im just curious as to whether this is a decent attempt at a WILD. Should i have done anything differently? is it always so difficult to actually fall asleep? Any comments or suggestions are welcome.
