Hey guys, I'm sure you get these types of questions often but I'd like some advice on this.

Whenever I attempt to WILD, I will get to this point where I am hearing a crackling/windy sound in my ears. I will also begin to see blue colors swirling in my vision and my body will start to tingle and slowly become numb. I'm pretty sure this is hypnagogic hallucinations and sleep paralysis, right?

Here is the thing, when I get to this stage I get VERY excited. My heart starts to beat extremely fast and I am thinking "Wow, I'm so close to lucid dreaming! Just a little longer!". This quickly turns from excitement to pure fear. I can't explain it, but I get this panicky feeling and I need to force my eyes open.

When I force my eyes open, all the hallucinations stop and I am relieved, but also angry at myself for failing my WILD once again.

I'm sure a few of you guys have experienced something like this. What advice would you offer to get past this stage?
