but the thing is,, im one of those people who get the full blown WILD RIDE,, you know, heavy vibrations,, like being on a rolor coster ride, vissualy and audio hulucinations,, + Sleep paralysation......

i was always too scard i was gona die or end up paraylzed or i always fought the w.i.l.d with all my might IT WAS SCARY,,, some times i would spontanuisly start to w.i.l.d 2 or 3 times a night and fight it off .. and that would go on for days... then dissaere for weeks, months or years.... and come back.... at age 17 i finaly found this site and learned about lucid dreams and that i ws a natrual w.i.l.d'er.....

the thing is now that i know what w.i.l.ds are and have had maby 6 or 7 lucid dreams ( floating, flying).... I CAN NEVER WILD ANY MORE.... i used to be able to bring on the terifying ordeal just by thinking about it befor,, now that i want to i cant..

once in college i did actually managed to full blown w.i.l.d into a lucid dream IT WAS AMAZING (i floated then) .. i mean i atculyy braved the ride to the end i was pushed throught like a tunnle right into a lucid dream.... wow........but the dream was foggy and lucidy didnt last long,,, much much more foggy and weak then most lucid dreams,,,, maby cuz it was part wake-back- to-bed,, cuz i was awoked durring a bad dream, by kids out side my dorm buiding and it was mroning and i fell into the wild

so any ideas why i cant wild natrualy any more now that i know what lucid dreams are,,.... ( i became lucid for 1 second at younger ages... didnt know there was a name name for them.. ii just knew i was dreaming and woke up)) it sucks now that im not affraid any more that i lost such a reverd gift as the abblily to full blow wild just by thining of the feeling,, or randomly

this is exactly what happenend to me, i thought there was something wrong with me for ages because somenights my body just won't let me go to sleep normally so i have to enter sleep through a lucid dream and then lose awareness.
so i looked up "aware dreaming" and found out about lucid dreaming ect.
i only discovered it yesterday, so i don't know if iv'e lost the ability,
ive never had any d.i.l.d's i've just naturaly had the wake initiated ones and i thought i had a sleeping disorder.

Sleep disorder? A lot of people around here would call that the Holy Grail.

ya well i had the holy grail like a bad case of chicken pox,,, not fun! i really thought some-thing was wrong with my brain.. lol... i dont know why now that i know about lucid dreams i can no longer natrualy w.i.l.d,,, i try all the time... im just hopping it will come back to me... i ued to curse it,, now i want it back

OK-- so i still got my wild ablitly,,, not 100% but still... last night i went to sleep trying to wild.... no-go.......... i woke up to my alarm clock 5 hours latter...... went ack asleep trying to wild... no-go... i had a regular dream,,i woke up like half an hour latter.... then i tryed to go back to sleep imagining my dream i just ame out of,, and at the same time i tryed to remer what it wa like to wild, i tryed to imagin the high gravity feeling,, the rocket-ship motion.. the s.p... AND IT WORKED... i enterf the start of my wild.. s.p,, high graity,,i felt like being on a rolor coster... but then freked out cuz my right hand felt numb so and i was afriad to sleep on it, so i fougth off the wild (not as eay as it sounds) (not as hard as it ued to be though) .. i reajusted my body,, and layed back and imagined the feeling of a wild... IT HAPPNED AGIAN.. i entered the wild... but as it puhed me along the tunnle,, instead of beong rocketed into a bright light at the end of the tunnle like my only true lucid dream form a wild ( the bright light being going right into a lucid dream)) i hit onluy blackness at the end of the tunnle.. and was snaped outa my wild auto-maticly......... so i tryed agian,, AND BAM... i went right back inot the wild for a third time in like 3 minnuts... but again i hit a black wall ( so to speak) and was snaped outa my wild... AHHHH.. well at least i know i can still wild so tonight ill try agian.... do u guyst think maby i was unable to wild, cuz it was like 5 pm and daylight with loud car noises?? ( i went to bed at 10 AM lol)) i smoke weed all day and play video games so i say up late... when i did have a lucid-wild-dream at college.. it was also day time with some loud kids out side my old college dorm. and that was the foggyest and most un-relisic lucid dream i had ( i still managed to float using imaginary invisable lilly pads( the ones that float on watter)) .......... any thoughts , idea or advice guys to get my natrual wild abllity back.... questions, commetsor awnsers?? lets hear it fellas.... LUCID DREAMS ARE AWESOME! untill next time all

Couple thoughts.

1) A lot of people experience natural sleep paralysis and/ or WILD quite a bit through the teen years. This seems to fall off as we reach adulthood. It could be that you are just getting older, so they are getting less frequent.

2) Your current diet and drug use habits have probably changed a lot in the past year or two. Seems like you are in college, mentioned a dorm and smoking a lot more weed, ect. I'm not saying that smoking hinders lucid dreaming. Just that the change in your body chemistry may have mixed things up a bit.

No matter what, you have a huge advantage with already having a few successful WILDs under your belt. You already know the feeling, and that's half the challenge. Now just try out some of the techniques in the tutorials section and elsewhere on this forum. You should be able to polish a technique that lets you enter it whenever you want.

I would definitely read up on some tutorials about the final stage of entering the dream. This can be tricky, and it seems to be where you are running into some problems.

Oh, and Welcome, Welcome.

you do bring up some vary good points... i discoverd lucid dreaming and what my w.i.l.ds where at the a vary close proximity to when i ramped up my weed smoking by like 500% (literly)

you seem to be also right about the age thingi would susspect... as ive got older the random wilds did start to tamper off

and ya thxs i do know i have quite an advantage... after reviewing the wake and back to bed tutorail and combinbing it with my memory of how to natrually wild i got it a partial- W.i.l.d on the first try this after noon (wake-up time for me lol))..... i cant wait to try again tonight... and thank u i do feel welcomed

I'm glad you're finding success. I just want to add one more thing. Lucid dreams are awesome, but the 'WILD ride' as you call it is awesome too. When I WILD, I am almost as happy with a real trippy ride as I am with a lucid dream. Its like a 100% legal, 100% safe 100% free recreational drug. For me, a good bout of sleep paralysis with hallucinations, body vibrations, physical disorientation, loss of ego, ect is comparable to the best chemically induced trip. Plus you can get up afterwards and say "Holy shit, I just did all that with nothing but a bed and a brain!? Why the F did I just spend $80 on that salvia?"

your quite right.. even though i am only now welcoming the wild rush of a w.i.l.d .... befor when i was 14,, i compared the feeling of the wild to my first few dozzen times getting high off weed... it is quite a rush like no other... it was the unkown that was the scary part.... in fact if i could master my natraul w.i.l.d abbily then i would have no reason to smoke weed (well sometimes) ... when i could lucid drem all the time (not in an abusive way of course)) ...i tryed to wild this moring when i woke u mid dream... i kept waking up every hour dissapointed i fell asleep with out wilding.. but tonight i will try it out

OH ya-- does any one have an idea of why i only seem to be able to w.i.l.d when lying on my back.. and not on my sides?? even though i ussualy prefer to sleep on my side? .. im thinking maby it might just be i can reconize that ""feeling"" more .. idk

"but the thing is,, im one of those people who get the full blown WILD RIDE,, you know, heavy vibrations,, like being on a rolor coster ride, vissualy and audio hulucinations,, + Sleep paralysation......"

Lol Same here! I used to think it was a curse but now I can practice WILDS every night and It actually looks like more of a blessing! I Think what your actually saying is taht you could enter SP at will which then will turn into a WILD (at least thats how it works for me). Well I too thought i lost the abiltiy to enter sp at will around the same age 19, as i did not know about Lucid dreaming at that time and SP used to frighten the shit out of me. I kind of made it go away i guess but im 26 now and I can SP pretty much at will again, every night if i try infact so i dont think you have anything to worry about. My WILDS suck though, and im working on stabilizing those. I dunno, enduring the crazy screeching static and body earthquakes of sp arent as bad now that I know i will LD if i just ride it out.

PM me if you want and I can tell you how i was able to reach sp with ease again.
P.s. did you quit smoking pot when you turned 19?
