That always happens when i wake up form my alarm. It startles me. I dont know any other way though. And just laying there doesnt help.

I wont get any sleepier, once my brain wakes up i dont think i can jump back into that SP phase

pretty much i just lose sleep trying to do this

hence the title, wild is evil

If you reach the "super powered heart" state, and break it, because it's too intense, or you have to do something, it is almost impossible to get back into it again. You'll have to try again tonight instead.

Its not that i got that a super heart rate state, i STARTED with a super heart rate, therefore couldnt relax enough to get into any stages of sleep.

I dont know why, its not like i woke up, ran a marathon, and went back to sleep.

I also have this problem...that once I wake up I am too awake to sleep again

The only way I can fix it is to go to bed super late in the first place. but this only works if you dont have to get up early the next day...

I usually can't LD (or recall doing so at least) until after 7 hours anyway. Maybe you're setting the alarm too early, making it impossible to do anything but knock yourself back out into a non-rem sleep. Make sure you're getting woken up during a natural REM stage. If you find a good time measurement, and set your alarm, make sure that its based off when you actually went to sleep, not when you got in your bed.

Personally I don't use alarms. I almost always wake up (if only for a brief moment) naturally during each REM cycle, so I can use that time and it works out perfectly. I also usually DILD though.

Wrong. Your heart going crazy, is simply a response to the feelings and sensations, of sleep paralysis. The only thing for you to do, is try to ignore your heart, keep your breath normal, and just focus on counting.
After 2 or 3 times, your body will start recognising the feeling, and it won't go crazy anymore.

On occasions I attempted WILD and suddenly found myself aware in a deep state of Hypnagogia I would usually get aPsychological/Physical Shock reaction. It felt alot like my heart beating out of my chest about to explode. Pounding very hard and fast and feeling very strange, unlike daytime heart pace raising, more with something like a tingling/burning sensation in my Heart. Very strange. Your story reminded me of that.
