Hey, this is my first post on here and I tried my first WILD last night. I set my alarm clock for 6.5 hours into sleep and it woke me up, I went to pee and then went back to bed. Then I got comfortable, and started breathing deep while counting down from 100 in between breaths. The whole time I just couldn't stop being nervous/anxious of what the sensations and such from HI/SP and when they were gonna happen. I started to see a couple of slight random things (like some monkey was pictured in my mind randomly at one point) as I got down to about 40. I tried to not think about SP and what everything was gonna be like, but whenever I try not to think of something I start thinking about it more. So on top of that, the door of the room next to me opened fast because I guess someone else had to pee too. That literally made my heart jump and scared the crap out of me. After they went back to bed, I was like alright I'm gonna try this again. And the same apprehensiveness, got down about midway and then a paper in my room fell and gave me another heart attack. At that point, I was kind of frustrated and scared to try again, so I just went to bed (which also took like 30 minutes because of all that happened). So obviously tonight I'm gonna wear earplugs so nothing distracts me. But I still need to find a way to get my mind off SP because it seems nearly impossible since I have never experienced it before. Also, since I'll be wearing earplugs, I was wondering if there's a way I can use those as an anchor, or should I just do the counting down and visualizing the numbers?
Thanks,
Nick
