      New Sensations when WILDing, Approaching Sleep Paralysis?

      Last night when I was attempting to WILD (at 4:30 in the morning, 5 hours sleep), I started to get some interesting sensations, it started out with the familiar numbness, followed with those funny 'pins and needles' sensations at the hands and feet.

      After a while I started getting these kind of hot flushes, like heat waves rushing up my body, after this the pins and needles intensified and spread from the extremities to most of my body apart from the upper torso, while this was happening I started getting ringing in my ears which increased in volume and pitch (like the feedback you get when you turn up an amp while a guitar is leaning against it).

      The onset of this ringing was accompanied by a sort of crackling in my right ear (I think due to the eardrum being perforated when I was a kid). As the ringing got louder I had a feeling of disconnecting from my body, breathing was getting difficult, and then, I snap out of it.

      Any thoughts on whether I was close to sleep paralysis?

      Always, no sometimes think it's me,
      But you know I know when it's a dream
      I think I know I mean a yes
      But it's all wrong
      That is I think I disagree
