Thread: FILDing

FILDing sounds quite nice to me. It tickles my ears and seems humorous, naughty and nutty.

Anyway, I liked the technique and I decided to try it out. Gave it a go yesterday when I went to sleep and then again during the night when I woke up and then again in the morning and before a nap.

My only half-successful attempt was during the night. The other times I just fell asleep, forgetting about my finger movement.

So I kept moving my fingers and after a while realized that I stopped. Started again, then stopped. This happened in several cycles because I find it difficult to get to the sweet spot. But after a while when I remembered to wiggle my fingers again, I realized that I was dreaming for a split second before waking up. Happened because my fingers moved both in my dream and reality, which interrupted my dream.

This confirms the point that sleep paralysis happens after falling asleep, which also explains hypnogogic jerks!
