I attempted the WILD, but...

Last night, I went to sleep at about 10:30 and woke up at around 4:30.
After waking up I began the WILD and tried getting into SP.
After a while, I started vibrating pretty violently so I decided to just ride it out.
Trying to stay calm, I tried thinking of where I wanted to be in my dream.
As the vibrations stopped, I tried getting into first person in my dream but I just woke up. I still felt as though I were in my room and I could still hear my fan. And that's where I performed a reality check and realized I was still awake.

Now, was that supposed to happen during SP, because it didn't really feel like I was in it. Also, how am I supposed to approach those vibrations, as I was calm the whole time but couldn't get into an LD?

I find SP comes shortly after the vibrations, and I answered this question on your last post which was very similar!

It sounds like you were doing everything right. This should get easier with practice. You were so close! Nothing is really "supposed to happen." It tends to be different every time. Just be prepared and ready, like you described.
