Hey everyone im new here, thought it was time to join after a while of lurking on here, and a really profound experience that i had last night, Firstly, il tell you a bit about myself
Im 17 and i live in the uk, i have had about 9 sucessful lucid dreams since i started studying the subject about 6 months ago, all of them have been reality check induced whilst i was in the dream, and one of them where i was given pills by a man that everyone was telling me to run away from, that made me lucid. I also have a lot of experience with dmt, and various entheogens that gave me the insight to what was possible with my brain and re-aranged my prioritys as a being.
Now, the other night i had what for me was a massive milestone in my mission, basicly this is how it happend.
I was really really tired, and after reading about this VILD technique i thought i might as well try it as i was fallling asleep and the results were amazing, i relaxed, focused on repeatadivly visualizing walking out of my room, and finding my mate who stayed over who then asks me if im dreaming, with all the senses incorporated etc etc. For the first time ever i felt the lead blanket affect as my body felt like i was phasing out of it, sort of like my body was being pulled into a black hole feet first, and while this was happening i had the tingling sensation slowly creeping up my spine.
Now this is where it got reallly interesting. whilst i was visualizing still, i focused on my third eye at the same time as noticing my breath and the high pitch sound in my ears all at the same time, and in an instant my mind became SO STILL and clear it was amazing, i was fully phased out of my body, then all of a sudden one of the objects i was visualizing appeared extremely vividly in my eyelids so i foucsed on it really hard and all the patterns in my eyelids filled out MY ENTIRE ROOM in 3d like lead fillings arranging on a magnet. It felt like i could walk into the image, it was very dmt like but unfortunatly it lasted for about 3 seconds because i was so happy and excited tht i found a way to enter dreams on demand. Prior to this the hypnagogic images where slowly starting to look like multiple realitys in a fractal like arangement.

ps this was without the wake back to bed method, just straight to sleep, and a moderate THC high

Was what i experienced a dream forming? had i have been calm could i have entered that image and started the dream? how can i improve this because nothing im my life matters more than getting this on LOCKDOWN.
