The first time I shifted (storytime)

(The first time I shifted was back in 2021, around 30 days after I found out about shifting!!)

FOR CONTEXT!

The time my better cr took place was Nov 2020 and my mom at the time, was still working in a ward that required her to wear her blue scrubs before arriving to work. She later switched to a different ward that didn’t require her to wear scrubs before reaching the hospital in 2021 and therefore, when she’d wake me up (in my cr) I would see her in regular clothes!

ACTUAL STORYTIME

I remember doing a method I fell asleep to (I don’t rmbr which one because I was experimenting with a bunch and this was literally 5 years ago) with the intention of shifting to my better cr. I remember scripting I would be woken up by my mom in the morning before she went to work.

As expected, I then get woken up by my mom and I had this knowing feeling that she’d wake me up? Maybe it’s because I was so used to her morning shifts that my body naturally woke up at that specific time of her leaving but idk. I remember opening my eyes and seeing her wear her old uniform aka her blue scrubs. I didn’t really think much of it because I was TIRED asf and it was 6am in the morning so I just acknowledged that she was leaving and fell back asleep. After falling asleep, my eyes opened instantly and I felt a lil out of it. I then got dressed at around 7 for school, and I remembered the image of my mom wearing her blue scrubs and realised that I just shifted to my better cr😭.

I was reallyyy confused and was thinking that I hallucinated it or smth but, at the same time, some part of me felt like I did shift. At the time, obvs with shifting misinfo going around I thought you needed to feel your surroundings change, you needed your heart to rapidly beat, and that you needed to feel like your floating etc. so thats why a part of me was thinking I didn’t shift.

TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, I scripted id have my iphone xr still in nov 2020 (I got my iphone in Aug 2021) so I genuinely couldn’t tell any difference between my cr and dr unless I actually went to school — because I changed a bunch of things regarding my school.

Anyway, I posted 2 videos privately on tiktok about this experience and forgot about it since.

Note: After school, I saw she was wearing her christmas scrubs which are light green with patterns on it so I thought I didn’t shift even tho I 100% rmbr seeing DARK BLUE plain scrubs. Esentially, my brain was gaslighting myself and made me think I was delusional.

Here’s my script for my better cr, literally stating I’d be woken up by my mom…

Shifting storytime - I shifted here

I don’t know if it’s just my algorithm but I haven’t really seen any storytimes recently so I figured I might share my own <3

After a shifting attempt I realised i had to get up because of church, so I opened my eyes and realised that i was in a different position than I imagined.

Idk how to explain this but when I was shifting, I closed my eyes and visualised myself waking up in my dr flat on my back - because that was what sleeping position I was already in, when I was doing my attempt.

Anyway, after a while I opened my eyes to wake up and get ready for church, and I couldn’t really feel my body and I completely frgt my sleeping position so when I opened my eyes to see myself facing the side and not lying back like I expected, it felt weird. The very first thing I said when I opened my eyes was actually “why am I here?”. I said it out loud because I was genuinely confused about my position. Ofc I recognised I was still in my cr but something felt foreign and I had no clue why. I even wrote in my notes app about this attempt and put “I had a really good attempt even though I didnt shift to my dr”

Moving on, I kept going on with my day til like 12 am where I viewed my hidden album. I have videos about shifting that I make but never share and I like to look back on them every once in a while. Then I scrolled all the way up and realised a video of Jaehyun (NCT) was at the top. I was like “oh okay maybe I just saved it on accident or smth.” Because I had no recollection of ever seeing that video. I view the video and the date is November 21 2018 at 1:01 am.

Now I got my current phone in July of 2021. So ofc I was like “thats odd” i downloaded pics of jaehyun for a little collage theme divider thing I was making using the nct discord server and thought that maybe I downloded it and discord saves the video using the date the photos/videos were sent. So I looked through my gallery and found a different video I saved from discord, and compared it with when it was originally sent and it was different hours.

So then I checked the nct discord server on the exact date the jaehyun video was supposedly taken, and found a selfie of him in the same clothes and environment? but it wasn’t the same. I really thought I was going crazy for a bit so I looked around online to try finding the video and eventually found the original post on twitter. The twitter post with the video found in my hidden album was actually posted on “November 21 2018, 1:01 AM”

This was really weird lmao, the phone I’m using to write this is the first apple iphone I recieved. And In 2018 I receieved a huawei for christmas. So even then I wouldnt even have a phone.

Which I how I found out I shifted, because I have never saved that video ever and it just randomly showed up in my album.

I just realised how bad my explanations are but there we go😭 I copied this from my notes app and fixed a bit of the sentences to make it flow smoother, so I hope this is comprehensible.

If anyone was curious about the “shifting method” I used, it wasn’t really a method. I don’t even remember what I was doing (it’s been a month since then). However, according to my notes app, I was apparently in a hypnagogic state.

From what I journaled, this was what I was doing: “Everytime i visualised and shut my eyes i had a visual thing it js randomly turned into a dream so I would keep going in and out of awareness or smth like that and after some point i js kept visualising where i would wake up and yap and stuff and my heart started beating fast and it wasnt a method, it was js chill and improv.” If that helps anyone lol. Which I’m sure doesn’t.

Shifting success isn't rare. (with data)

Something I've noticed among a few shifters is that they idolise those that have shifted and treat them like they're full-on royalty, when shifting is not that special.

People need to stop thinking that successful shifters are a rare thing because it simply isn’t. There are so many shifters that have fully shifted yet people still act like it’s some mythical accomplishment. I decided to actually look at the ratio and percentage of shifters that have shifted that I follow on TikTok on 2 accounts, my main one I use, and my shifting account.

I am well aware shiftok is not necessarily the best place for reliability but it’s the app I spend most of my time using so I have quite a lot of shifting accounts I follow.

Note: I count an account that has successfully shifted when I see it in their bio or if they have posts talking about their experiences such as their first shift and other stories so it may not be completely accurate. For those that have shifted I will also include those that have mini shifted!

#1 my main account.

I have had this account since 2021, where I first found out about shifting so I follow shifting accounts that have been created between very late 2021-2024. In this account, there were 58/105 whom have successfully shifted along with 3 who have mini shifted equaling to around 58.10% or 61/105

#2 Shifting account

My next account is purely for shifting content so I don’t use it much and has been made Jan this year. In that time frame I follow 29/42 who have fully shifted and 1 that mini shifted totalling to 71.43%. Additionally, I have 6 followers in which 4/6 have fully shifted making that 66.67%.

Conclusion Obviously, since my main account is much older and I follow much more people, the percentage is lower than my recently made account where I follow around 42 shifters. However the results do show that the ratio is over 50% indicating that shifting is quite a common thing and isn’t a ‘rare’ occurrence people think it is.

Finally, I'd like to note that this is only on TikTok, and is not accounting for shifters within discord servers, on reddit, tumblr, etc. Nor shifters I have yet to discover on TikTok or those that do not have social media. However even so, the percentage is still quite high.
