So I might have had my first Lucid Dream, But I don't know what method it was and if it really was a Lucid Dream.

I woke up from sleeping and decided it might be a good time to try WILD. I've never attempted it before, but I've been reading many tutorials on it, and I felt like I might have had a chance.
I was a bit nervous, but also extremely anxious at the thought of having a LD. So I did the usual 'Relax and then don't move' Sort of thing. My first attempt got interrupted by my dog .
But for the second attempt my main problem was swallowing. Like I'd be just laying there perfectly fine not swallowing, and then think to myself (Damn I'm doing a good job not swallowing) and then BAM...

It also seems to sort of be automatic, like no matter what I did it would swallow, even if I had all my concentration on not doing so.

ANYWAYS Back to the main shindig, So I was feeling a bit scared in the sense that I would fail my WILD because of my swallowing, but I kept going. After some while I noticed weird sort of wave
patterns going across my eyes. I can't really explain it but from what I can remember they were just black and white.

And then after having that for a while, I must have fallen asleep or something because I honestly don't remember hearing any 'Noise' or seeing random shapes due to HI pop up.
And then I started to dream, and I saw myself in a mirror. But I noticed something strange.. My head only had patches of hair. And at this point I remember it feeling... sort of real, But I don't remember it as vividly as I guess you're meant to.
So after seeing my hair I was like "This can't be right" And I did my RC which is if I can put my fingers through my other hand. And well of course I could. I think I was really happy at this bit, but again I really don't remember much.
After that point I just somehow ended up on some stripy coloured island, orange and blue colour scheme I think. At this point the dream started to fade, so I did the hands/spinning trick and it actually worked.
Then from this point on it's more of just patches of memory that come into play, Like how I remember trying to fly but failing horribly.

Finally the lucid bit of my dream started to fade off, and even the hand/spinning trick wouldn't work.
And then after that it just transforms into a really odd dream, none of which I remember being particularly lucid.


So if you managed to read and understand that, Then I'm curious to know your opinion on the matter.
My biggest concern is that it wasn't actually a lucid dream because;
-Barely remember it
-Not very Vivid
-Couldn't control much
-Didn't successfully do a WILD


Also any tips on swallowing + generally doing the "Don't move" Part of the wile would be appreciated
