So I have recently been researching lucid dreams, and decided to try it last night. I read up on wild and mild, and found that wild was more difficult. The problem was that I didn't like how mild sounded and it didn't seem like it would work/ I could easily mess it up, so I decided to try my first time using wild. I read so many articles pertaining to WILD and how to not mess it up, so a couple hours later I was ready to try. I did as the instructions listed and laid on my back, put my hands on my chest, tensed up my muscles and then released the tension, and just cleared my mind thinking of nothing but "I will realize i'm dreaming tonight". A bit into it I felt an odd heat sensation run through my body, and a numbness of my arms. My breathing and heartbeat picked up pace during this situation, but my mind had a slight freak out and I was jumping thoughts. I felt my eyes moving really fast...twitching would be a better word for it. A few minutes later, while I still partially couldn't feel my body I felt like I was spinning, better yet, the room was spinning while I laid still. After that was gone, about 20-30 minutes had gone by and I figured I lost my chance, so I opened my eyes, and sat up. My right hand had gone numb (most likely from odd positioning). Can anyone help me interpret what happened last night? If I was close to actual dreaming, and what to do when I get that close?

You where really close to have a lucid dream, i would say 3-5 minutes away. On the first try, this was really good. I say try again tonight and avoid swalloving or itching, if you didin't already.
Current LD goal(s): Eat apple pie , spray web like spiderman

At first I would like to ask when did you do the WILD? I hope it wasn't at night when you went to sleep. Make sure you do it after 4.5 - 6 hours of sleep. That simplifies it significantly. Other than that I would say you were pretty close. Most people wake up from the exitement of the WILD and SP (sometimes even during a LD), but with time you should be able to calm down your emotions ang go through the process. Tell us how it works next time. 
Current LD goal(s): Have a lightsaber duel with a DC.
