WILD on first try!

[laracroft21]

I took this straight outta my dream journal [size=24]WILD WILD: You Guys Are Gonna Hate Me But I Did It on My First Try (sort of first try) Ok so this has been the best 2 days for me, yesterday I saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Today I got the new Harry Potter book, and today I did my first WILD on the (kinda) first try and best/longest LD yet! I know it's long but please bear with me and read b/c I am so happy about it! I went to sleep around 4:30 a.m. this morning and woke up at 8 a.m. when my b/f got off work. I wanted to stay up to wait for the mailman (God forbid I miss him and my Harry Potter book get taken to the post office for me to pick up MONDAY! Shudder at the thought!). He came at 11:30 and of course I read HP till about a little after one on the couch, and I started to get sleepy. I decided to put the book aside only since my eyes were closing and nap a little while. I didn't mean to try WILD but I started having the somewhat now familiar hypnogogic imagery and sounds (it's happened a few times but usually goes into a regular dream). I started to go with it and was flying a little bit, I saw rocket ships flying around me but I seemed to be flying on my own, towards the moon. I had originally tried (and succeeded in) picturing myself on the ocean, but somehow the picture switched to the moon and I figured, the full moon is my symbol, I'll go for it. I was lucid I guess, but not really dreaming at this point (still just imagery and I felt myself lying on the couch). The moon approached and started to look like Earth, then a huge bump from the fuckers upstairs made everything go white and fade as I sat up cursing the fuckers. More bumping ensued so I decided to read a little about WILD on here and try again in the bedroom. I read Seeker's tutorial and went to lay down. I was only there a few minutes and nothing happened b/c Jason kept moving beside me. I sat up cursing Jason. The fuckers were still bumping around so I went into the guest room, pretty awake now, to read some more HP. I figured I may get sleepy and try WILD again so I put a sign on the door for when Jason woke up ("Caution: LD experiment underway, do not disturb") I read about 1 1/2 hours and finally decided to try since the fuckers had stopped bumping above that room (they constantly run foot races around the whole apartment, 24 hours a day, dropping furniture and their 3-year old randomly on the floor as they go. That's my assumption at least). Of course as soon as I lay down, the bumping started again (a little, probably the little bastard romping). I cursed the little bastard but put pillows over my head and a blanket over my eyes and determined myself to try. I kept getting the images, and odd words and thoughts kept popping into my head, every so often interrupted by various itching body parts and Jason making noise in the kitchen. And the fuckers. Finally I started to feel what I guess is a vibration for half a second and it startled me into coming out of it. It took a long time and I won't bore you but finally I like flew through a tunnel of white light and got to a point where I could feel my body on the bed, but realized I could move my dream body without moving my real body. (Ok if no one has done this it's hard to explain. You should have heard me trying to tell Jason right after I woke up ) I laid there a little while because I kept hearing this scritching noise, very annoying, coming from somewhere behind my head to the left (in my left ear.) I kept wanting to check on it (being in a dreamish state I kind of thought it may be a rat gnawing at the carpet) but decided not to "break the spell" so to speak by moving, and ignore it. I got more images I can't remember that changed a lot, but the scritching kept going intermittently. I decided to check if it was indeed in my head by seeing if I could make it go with a song (don't remember what song, something stupid). It started going to the beat so I decided it was part of the auditory hallucinations and ignored it. I finally decided I could S L O W LY try to get out of bed with my dream body. Now this is much harder than I thought it would be. It was very hard to keep an image of my room in view after I opened my dream eyes, and much harder to move. I felt I weighed about 500 pounds and didn't want to accidentally move my paralyzed real body and come out of the trance. I finally got up but my vision kept zooming down to a pinpoint, like a little porthole (this happened to me one other time for a few seconds....that's why I saw it's "sort of" my first try b/c before I didn't know about WILD and didn't know what I was doing but I guess I did......) Anyway I went into the living room and my vision was still blurry. I saw Jason's form in the kitchen and went to hug him and he kind of laughed. I worried for a moment that it wasn't him (some weird dream worry....I was lucid). So I told him to stand by this wall and I went into a bathroom and screamed "more clarity! more clarity" and it didn't work so I turned on the light and I could see perfectly I went into the living room/kitchen and realized it looked nothing like our apartment, but like a really big house with a vaulted ceiling and all wood like a cabin in the mountains. I told Jason I was dreaming and he didn't seem to care (I think he was making coffee, what he was probably doing IRL during the LD). I turned on the lamp we have and instead of light coming out, it was little purple neon butterflies. I laughed and felt so overjoyed I can't explain it. So proud of myself! Jason seemed unimpressed by the light so I said "good thing this dream house has vaulted ceilings so I can prove I'm Lucid!" and flew up to the top, did a cute little flip and back down. I had a hard time with the mid air backflip, I couldn't get all the way around like when I backflip in a pool drunk and almost lost visual again. Jason STILL didn't care so I went into another bathroom and noticed it was all wood and had a huge panel window that opened right up, perfect for flying out of! (it's what I was looking for, vaulted ceilings not good enough!) I said out loud (loudly so Jason could hear) "this dream bathroom is awesome, we should get one like this when we buy a house!" I was laughing the whole freaking dream I swear. I opened the window, and this was the clearest part of the dream. Probably more clear than I've ever had (i did say more clarity in here too and it worked). It was me opening these 3 latches on the window, I felt so perfect at that moment, so amazed at how well I could see the window, so amazed I was having a WILD, and so amazed that I could do whatever I wanted! The dream sort of slipped beyond my control once I opened that stupid window though, even though I was still lucid. I opened it and sort of slithered out like a snake, thinking "I could never do this IRL with my back problems" and halfway hanging out the window I saw a girl holding a sign (like a beggar "will work for food" sign) right below me. I decided I would have sex with her since I never get sex dreams and started to say something like, "I'm dreaming, I'm gonna show you by flying out the window, then we will fuck." but she started talking about her sign (which said something like "Are YOU poverty-stricken?") and telling me she was selling guns. I said "selling or buying"? and she said "both" and "I'll buy one from you and you can buy one from me." I thought, this chick is bumming out my LD. I said "well, that would make things the same as they are now, and since I don't have a gun, we won't do anything and things will still be the same. Ok now let's fuck!" I threw her on the grass with her legs over her head in "the position" and she said something like, "oh honey I love it when we role play like we don't know each other!" I guessed she was supposed to be my gf in the dream (like I said, I didn't have control and it ws more like a regular dream now, although I still knew I was dreaming). Gross Sexual Part Ahead: Sensitive folks beware! I started going down on her and noticed she has this gross white stuff like jizz all over her, and she said "yeah lick it up baby. taste me." I didn't want to and I said in my head, make it taste like whipped cream. Then I tasted it and it did not taste like whipped cream. It tasted like whipped ASS. So I decided to wake myself up by moving my real arms, which I could still feel in the bed. Then I ran around the apartment screaming "I did a WILD! I did a WILD!" like a fool until Jason asked what that was, I told him and again he was unimpressed b/c he had done it before too, only didn't know what it was called. Without trying. Fucker. THE END

dang fuckers! ehhh.... maybe u should only do wilds during night from now on. what an odd twist at the end. but i like it! haha. no way a girl would post this!!!!!!!! anyway CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so u think maybe the HP book got ur mind in creative mode to spawn this ld? cool

Congratulations Lara! I kept getting the images, and odd words and thoughts kept popping into my head, every so often interrupted by various itching body parts and Jason making noise in the kitchen. And the fuckers.[/b] LMAO I must ask Lara, how long did it seem for you to finally 'fall under?'

[laracroft21]

Jay, I don't know if Harry Potter inspired me to try this....I think the timing just worked since I had such a short amount of sleep and was up for a while, then needed a nap. Seemed a perfect time to try. I hadn't planned on it but when I started getting the images on the couch, I decided to really give it a whirl. Usually when I get them, it's at bedtime and I just want to sleep. And the fuckers make noise all night too, since they are coke heads and seem to never sleep. I liked my twist at the end too, I just wish I had been in control of the dream then Would have been much nicer! no way a girl would post this!!!!!!!! [/b] A girl would post this if you are talking about me! LOL. Dew, after I finally got comfortable, I can't say exactly how long it took to "fall under", I should have paid more attention to the clock. Since it's such an odd experience it's hard to measure time, but I'd say it felt like about 20 minutes. The time period when I was just laying there listening to the scritching noise was unmeasurable, it felt like it was longer than it probably actually was. I needed a nap, but this excersise made me MORE tired....very mentally exhausting! Wonder if it's like that for everyone? ~Selena

[jay dawg]

lara, can u give me a more detailed account of how u exactly moved from the HI/HS into the full blown dream? like how u felt exactly and how did u manage to move your dream body without disturbing your real body. are you sure you didnt go into SP? did you have to like imagine moving your dream body or did you actually try to move it physically? im soooo close to doing it myself please do tell

I needed a nap, but this excersise made me MORE tired....very mentally exhausting! Wonder if it's like that for everyone? [/b] I find it very mentally exhausting. Concentrating hard on staying conscious and fighting the feeling of not going to sleep is one task. Then it is another to ignore all weirdness that is happening is another. Then to try to enter the dream world--which I am still not sure of how to go about with. That is why I am very fascinated with your story Lara. Thanks for sharing it. Next time, I will try this moving my dream body very S L O W L Y lara, can u give me a more detailed account of how u exactly moved from the HI/HS into the full blown dream? like how u felt exactly and how did u manage to move your dream body without disturbing your real body.[/b] LOL I agree with you jay dawg! Please do tell Lara *waits intently*

I really don't know honestly. I really just layed there and let my self go with the images, I remember the tunnel, and the rest gets fuzzy until I was laying there listening to the weird noise (in my head, but it felt like I was just laying there awake.) I wish I could explain this better. I just got to that point and then realized my dream body could be seperated from my real body. I was definitely in SP and it took a while it seems to figure out how to "move" my arms and know that they weren't really moving.This part faded in and out. It's the weirdest sensation I've ever experienced and I wish I could describe it better, I just know it was difficult, and once I got up it was hard to "see" and acheive clarity. I'm actually amazed that I did it at all, because I really had no idea how and did not expect it to work at all. Sorry I can't be of better assistance! I will try this again (maybe tomorrow) and if I can do it again I'll try to remember what I did. It just felt sort of natural, like I knew what I was supposed to do when I got there, but I don't know how I got there. Seeker knows a lot about WILD, he could probably be of better assistance. ~Selena

(sounds like the wild i did a few days ago when i suddonly lost consciousness then found myself in my first INDUCED lowlvl LD) then you tried your hardest to move into the dream that you are in and/or manipulate it. makes sense i guess. im gonna give it another go in an hour. i hope it works!
