Almost had 2 WILDs this morning

Well I woke up this morning,and no-one was home. So I decided to try to WILD. At 1st I was very close. I was lieng still on my back for nearly 25 minutes,and suddenly I tried moving my fingers but I couldn't. I knew I was in SP. I started seeing mini hallucinations. they were kind of like mini dreams. One was that I was in my apartment and I saw this elderly couple,and they were asking me how high the elevator goes up to. Then it transitioned to me walking around my block. Then it went back into blackness. I started hearing things. I heard static waves and a hair blow dryer,and I got freaked out and ended up waking up. I tried again several minutes later. I again fell into SP,and just before I started getting hallucinations, my ipod(which i keep near my bed because I use it as my Dream journal) but I got jolted awake because I got a loud notification from my ipod telling me to update one of my apps. -__- I woke up mad because of my ipod and did a RC just to make sure it wasnt a FA. I'm happy that I got pretty close

I was about to quit lucid dreaming a couple of days ago because I've been on a dry spell since the beginning of the month,but now I feel motivated again. I will keep you guys updated. I'm trying WILD again tonight. Should I mix it with WBTB?

Yup, nice attempt. You were close. And yes, combine with WBTB. Good luck!

And also,how can I avoid getting freaked out while trying to WILD? I've heard about people waking up in SP and seeing demons around them. When I woke up in SP i didnt see anything scary,I just saw my room looking really blurry.

You will most likely not wake up in SP, as that is a disorder.

And you will most likely have a nice experience, same, as was your previous one. You will see your room or other place, nothing scary.

Nothing can hurt you, same way as nothing can hurt you in a dream. Fill your mind with pleasant thoughts, maybe a place you want to visit in your dream.

Liks Gab said it was most likely not SP, in SP one can't move at all and it's disorder that most of people don't experience, unless you are experiencing SP regularly when even going to sleep normally, you don't have it, also SP is not related to lucid dreaming. http://www.dreamviews.com/wake-initi...mystified.html

Hallucinations and various sensations are normal when being more aware of falling asleep, and for WILD you need to fall asleep while being aware, don't worry and think about good things. Congrats on progress by the way

, you were pretty close, do WBTB and i strongly suggest checking out those tutorials:

Thanks for that checker666 (if that's the sign of the devil by the way it's 616) I picked this up from one of Mastermind's posts and that clarified things

Because when you transition you don't think about your body and therefore will not experience any strange sensations like vibrations, rushing noises etc.
Although since you want some kind of sign that you are going to succeed you look for it and when you get those sensations you are actually focusing more on the physical body than the dream, so therefore nothing happens and you stay in the physical focus.

I'm adopted a different approach (and maybe a different position -I thought you had to lay on your back and, in some weird way, I think that actually amplifies the side effects)
Once again, thanks for the advice

Finally had my 1st lucid dream since my dry spell.

It wasn't very long,about 2 minutes but I remember it pretty vividly. I also had about 3 regular dreams. Tonight I will try again and then tommrow I'll post if I got another lucid dream. Thanks for the advice guys.
