Paralysis
I woke after nine hours of sleep. I had zero recall. I had an hour before I just had to get up so I tried to dream some more. My mind was racing with thoughts and I could not fall back to sleep. So I did a few minutes of meditation to relax and quiet my mind. Then I started my "I am dreaming" mantra. I had a though about a haunted tour my fiancee told me about but I pushed it aside. I think my consciousness split for a few minutes. I also had a thought wondering if WILD could actually happen. I was doubtful. Then I had a thought of a ghost or demon or something coming for me. I wanted to run but I was paralysed. Then I remembered myself and said no I must be about to dream. I was indeed in SP. I felt all tingling and twitchy. I told myself I did not care about whatever was coming it was not real. I relaxed and in a few seconds my body became calm. I partially opened my eyes. I could see a brightly lit window. Somehow I mistook this for reality. I did not expect to enter the dream like a FA. So not realising I was dreaming I closed my eyes again. I felt very disappoint. I felt a few twitches of SP and then. I do not know. Memory gap. I had given up. Next time I will know what to expect! I vaguely remember getting up and seeing myself dressed with crazy bed hair. I remember fragments of being in a building at night. Some strange workplace. Using keys on doors. <PERSON> from where I really work. Then I was in my ex in laws living room. We had just watched some movie about long haired gerbils with my kids. Their grandmother and grandfather were watching it too. She said to him "You know what they are selling at the pet store now do not you?" "What? Long haired gerbils?" "Yep!" I wake up. I doubt I had a true WILD. I did sort of forget myself before the SP. Is this a normal WILD experience?
