Help.... I Can't Stop Geting Scared Awake!?!?

Hi.. ummm I have been looking though this forum for like a week almost and ive read a few things about WILDing and im trying the WBTB technique... my dream recall is pretty sad... I can only remember a paragraph of like 1...2 dreams most nights but I still want to try and WILD

The problem is since I’ve read about the sounds and pictures ill see I get really scared now... even though its only my mind and it cant harm me I still get my hart going wild I’ve only herd a few noises once and it was someone calling my name really loud and quick but it woke me up completely and I’ve seen colours and blobs but I’m just 2 afraid to deal with it without waking up…any ideas on how 2 get around the sounds and pictures?

It would be extremely appreciated :)

And what does use hear and see?

You don't have to focuse on any of the images you know? Just close your dream eyes. and relax. As far as the sounds don't worry about it, because it's all a part of the process. Basically what you're hearing is your Dream Environment already in the making You just haven't arrived there yet, but you're slipping deeper into it thus making it that much easier for you to hear your dreamworld and see all of these images starting to form in relation to your dreamworld. I wonder are you experiencing any SP during this process becuase I didn't see you mention that.

sorry... this will sound stupid but is SP sleep paralysis? lol its 4:18am and I just woke up and im dissapointed caz i dont remebr even havening a dream... i thinks my alarm clock is 2 lowd nad distracting... i have 2 jump up and open my eyes and turn it off n then im full awake n cant remebr anything :| :blue:

and if it is sleep paralysis i think if felt it only once.... and that was before i found this site

The sounds and images occur every night when you go to sleep, you usually aren't conscious to be aware of them. Try looking at them passively and don't concentrate on them.

Yes, that will greatly affect your dream recall. When you wake up try to lay still for a minute with your eyes closed until you can remember your dreams. I recommend you set a vibrating alarm, I do it on my cell phone and it slowly wakes me up :content:

That’s what I use.... but it’s just loud because its on my TV cabinet thing... ill just put a cloth under it but anyway OMG!!!! I had my first lucid dream :bigteeth: :bigteeth: :bigteeth: :bigteeth: :bigteeth: lol It was so unexpected.... I tried to WILD but I was laying there for like 60 min and not much was happing.... then all of a sudden I felt like someone had thrown me of a cliff... lol and I’m like wow its happing but it got so crazy I woke up (really really really crazy feeling of falling) but then I said screw it and went to sleep and ended up having a dream about vacuuming at school n I was like hay finally I’m deeming.... took long enough.... WAIT that means Im lucid and it all went burly as I said that to my self so I spun n I woke up in my room but I knew I was dreaming not sure why but I did lol I just looked at my hands which were out of focus I was really clam n was thinking shouldn’t I be excited?!?! Then I went to move and realized I couldn’t move easily and that I forced my self to... half way though getting up out of bed I woke up but it’s so cool because I was at the point of quitting because I wasn’t getting any better :D


YAYAYAYAYAYAYYAYA :) :bigteeth: (-_-) LOL!
