Strange WILD experience

**sanctum** · 01-22-2012 04:17 PM

So I got to the transition phase last night (for me, vibrations), and they were relatively mild. I could think connected thoughts to myself during the entire thing. But when they were over and I opened my eyes in the dream, I could barely open them. I simply could not force my muscles to move beyond halfway open. And I couldn't really see beyond into the dream, because my eyes were filmy and blurred, as if I had to rub the sleep from my eyes. I know I was in a dream because I could see that my room was brightly lit, and I had slept with the light off, like most people. But I ended up struggling to open my eyes until I tried to hold them open with my fingers, at which point I opened my eyes in the real world.
Then I used the dream to have an epic chain of DEILDs, but still. I felt the most lucid in the first dream (and this isn't the first time the heavy eyelid thing has happened to me). How do I fix that?

I don't think there's anything that can be done to fix it. Sometimes strange things just happen. I went through a period where as soon as I entered the dream I would feel so dizzy and nauseous that I had to force myself to wake up. The moment I woke up I felt fine. This ruined I think four WILDs in a row. On my next attempt it didn't happen and it hasn't happened since.

This has happened to me in a few recent WILDs too. I fixed it up by stabilising. You can try using verbal commands such as "Stabilise" or rub your hands together. Whatever works best for you. Even use them both together.
