The SSILD test. - 30 days.

Day 11
Slept at 12 am, woke up at 6:30 and several times before. just had some crappy sleep. i know i was in rem, did a 5 min. wbtb. just some dreams.
Attempts: 11
LD's: 0
FA's: 0

Day 12
I figured something out, if i try ssild periodically instead of daily only then i'll find more success. So i before 1 am, woke up at 7:25. 5 minute wbtb. Sometime before 9 i encountered paralysis, some sensations as i became aware of my dream body. paralysis took over, i desperately tried to immerse myself in the images behind my eyelids which i shouldn't have done. i thought i was entering a dream but i should've opened my eyes because i rolled out of bed but i didn't see nothing and then snapped right back. i need to take a break...

Sorry if this is necroposting, but I've been able to try on the past 2 days, and it broke my 6 month long dryspell. just my own 2 cents

Hello folks! I am new to this forum, but it seems I am also doing some 'necroposting'. Ik have been doing WBTB and MILD for one month, very disciplined, not one LD. Wrote down more than 100 dreams during that time. Ik discovered the SSILD manual 3 days ago. Tried it, and the second day I had a solid LD. So I plan to follow this up. OK to post it here?

I've never understood why people don't like necroposting. Makes no sense to me.

I *like* it when old, large (and therefore probably interesting) threads are brought back to life by someone who stumbles upon it.

So for me, I'd be all for you writing your own experiences here.

This is something of a side-note, though, as I haven't been on these forums much recently myself. (though would be interested in hearing specific reasons other members dislike necro-posting so much)

Thanx, Venrix!
I am now on my 5th day with SSILD. No new LD's, but I have had some very interesting dreams. I will post a comment after the 7th day. One thing stands out, however: I think SSILD does something special in the brain. If I had a scanner:cooler:...I would like to see what happens with this cycles. I can feel it messes with my head!

7 days with SSILD. I did exactly follow the manual. Most remarkable was 1 solid lucid dream, where I practiced meditation. Another night, I had 5 dreams, and every dream had a clear "message" to me. I have had these before, but 5 in a row and in one night! I found this very interesting. I will continue for a while with SSILD, but now mixing it with other approaches. Tonight I will also use a tea of Entadi Rheedii.
