Got quite close to lucidity last night, trying a technique I learnt hours before and had only tried once.

I lay in my usual position, I didn't move at all, my eyes were always closed and I was still. I counted down from 100 going '100 i'm dreaming, 99 i'm dreaming' and not long I was either

a) In sleep paralysis, my limbs were extremely heavy, but i only saw blackness, no lucid dreaming, then I think I may have fell asleep

b) I fell asleep and I was still conscious and thinking I was awake with sleep paralysis, which would be a good sign?

Any ideas on what happened?

Cheers
