Was this the beginning of a WILD?

Im a beginner when it comes to lucid dreaming. Usually i would just get lucky and realize im dreaming. Ive had a few LDs but they dont last long. So i wanted to try the WILD technique. The other night i randomly woke up at around 4am and decided it was a good time to try my first WILD. So i relaxed and counted slowly in my mind. I felt myself drifting and suddenly it felt like my whole body was vibrating and i could hear this loud humming noise. I got freaked and i chickened out and jolted myself awake. Was this the start if a WILD? I want to try it again but im still a bit scared lol.

Yes, that is the start. Also, don't be afraid. Although, when you feel those and something creepy happens and your heart speeds up in my experience it will slow down fast and not ruin your attempt. Look, you just felt vibrations and stuff and you're scared? Just wait till the hallucinations, which actually 98% are hilarious lol
