The dream thread!

[FuzzHugger]

Last night, there were guys with guns killing people, I ran, jumping over fences, climbing trees, and running over the roof of a house to get away...I got shot once, but took shelter in this older guy's house...then we all decided to get away, so we got in a bus and escaped town. And President Obama showed up and rode along with us, since it was a national tragedy shooting type thing. He wasn't eloquent in person--kind of fumbling, so we all giggled about that.

i rarely dream if i do there pretty bizarre
i used to have a recurring dream about stealing bananas no joke i didnt get it eaither
i can barely get to sleep half the time after two home invasions while i was asleep im like a scared cat and sleep with one eye open haha

I dream in color.
I rarely get to have sexual dreams.
As a kid I would have night terrors, and I still remember them vividly 30 years later.
Once I awoke completely paralyzed, except my eyes. I had very shallow breathing and couldn't call for help. It lasted about 20-30 minutes but felt like hours.

I have known 2 people that this has also happened to.

My dreams how ever nice always end up where I am: Running from something, looking for something, lost, found someone and we then have to look for something, run from something, chase something or something....

My dreams turn out somewhat like this most of the time.

I have a few places that I usually dream. Like 5 or 6 different dream scapes or something. Pretty much the same thing happens each time I go to one of these "scapes." The other times are all new, with different people/places/etc. I'm convinced there have been times where I dreamed things before they happened. Once or twice I have experienced lucid dreaming, where I realized I was asleep (or at least in a world sans boundaries or any law of physics) and could therefore brings things into my dream.

Good thread

Sleep paralysis is very common.

A lot of people in Japan insist it's ghosts sitting on people's chests as they sleep.

It's more to do with ACh cutting off your motor functions so you don't go running off into the forest at night and get eaten by a lion

I remember my dreams almost all the time, but I forget them if I don't make an effort right after waking up.

My worst nightmare was a time when I met the devil himself, it was so scary that I woke up praying, and I'm not a very religious person.

One recurrent dream is about flying naked, it is very relaxing.

It's because that commercial was invented by the Australian government to fuck with people and make them dream about getting bananas no matter what the consequences. Ever wonder why Australia doesn't import banana's ? Trying to prevent banana diseases my ass. Fucking mind control man.

you have unraveled a deep subconscious hole

I've had some pretty heavy dreams before. I once dreamt of my grandfather's liquor store getting robbed. Then 2 years later,it happened. The earliest dream I remember was at age 4. I dreamt of a hairless bigfoot with pink skin. It chased me and vomited watermelons. Its skin was covered in warts. If it happened to vomit a melon on anyone,they'd die,just up and fucking keel over. Weird

i had a dream last night i was standing in a big white room kinda like an art gallery with big tall ceilings and at the top of the ceiling on the wall was a guy nailed in a crucifix kinda shape
and all i remember is me and some other person standing next to me staring at him up there and he kept moving like jittering and i asked him if he was dead or not and then all i remember is being worried about the nails ripping through his hands and feet when he jittered and him falling from the wall and landing ontop of someone

all i remember is me staring at him for like it felt for hours and being worried
so weird
usually i can work out what my dreams mean but this one is confusing
im not religious at all either

any help? besides a quack

My dreams how ever nice always end up in a post apocalyptic world where I am: Running from something, looking for something, lost, found someone and we then have to look for something, run from something, chase something or something....

Post apocalyptic and chasing shit x 10...I have had dreams where I literally off'd my(and the world's)would-be oppressors,ran with a small band of people,hid and tried to quietly off small groups of them. But I killed those guys in numerous fucked up and disturbing ways and it felt better than it should have

Mine are in black and white, and in first person.
My thoughts in my head are usually separate from my actions, which is really annoying.

In middle school I used to sleep with my boom box on my bed so I could listen to music without it being loud enough for the parents to know. One evening, I was having a nightmare that I was being chased by a ghoul/goblin type. To my dismay, it had caught up to me. With some last minute instinctual action, I turned and punched the hell out of that bastard. Gave 'em the ol' right *jab* right in the kisser.
WELL, this very same night, turns out I was sleeping on my side...facing the bbox. I instantly woke up (after I assure you, knocking out that goblin) to minor pain & bloody knuckles . Turns out I beat up my stereo. Straight up punched a hole into one of the speakers. Yea. Told you I knocked him out.

I had sleep paralysis once in the university library. It was horrible. I dreamt I was spilling scalding hot tea all over myself, but I wasn't moving. I was in a chair with my head hanging down, watching my legs not move as imaginary tea was burning me. Not cool.

I have two post-apocalyptic dreams I remember. There was one that started out like I was watching tv, and they were showing those atomic bomb explosions that are always shown in movies. But they were landing on my town, and the buildings looked like they'd been cut out of the newspaper and taped to the screenof the television.
Then it was in third person and the bombs had turned all the walls into chicken wire. Everyone was rounded up and put into a concentration camp thing, but they didn't have anything for us to do. So I asked the guard if I could go home and grab books or whatever, and he thought that was a great idea so he did the same thing; then I woke up.
The otherinvolved a giant church, a lawnmower; and huge, killer, mutated, flying pink poodles. I'd say more, but I don't remember very much about it.

I've also had several conversations in my sleep. Usually I'll be taking a nap, someone will start talking to me, I'll respond, later I wake up none the wiser. Not as strange as sleep punching though.
