Dreams that move you.

I've only had 2 lucid dreams where I was in control. I do have lots of dreams that I'm aware that I'm dreaming though. I always try to look at the sky, or try to tell time. Time is always a failure. I've also slept in my dreams. But it was a black sleep, I didnt have a dream in a dream.
 





@Bennet, Sent you a PM.

Actually had a dream within a dream after watching inception.... it was much better than the movie itself.

I find that becoming somewhat aware that you are in a dream is not that hard. What is frustrating is that I usually come awake if I try to exert too much control.

Dreams within dreams are awesome but i have only started on the 3rd or whatever dream and gone up I have never fallen asleep in a dream into another.
 
Well, what's funny is I remember that I had to use a virtual reality sensory stimulus suit to control an avatar on one level, and I went to sleep as the avatar, but woke up as myself, but still with radiation poisoning. Lake karachay sucks. Yeah... dreams... :tinfoil:
 
Only one dream ever really effected me, it's also one of the few I can recall perfectly.

I was in this field with some old friends I had lost connection with. Then suddenly lots of bad things started happening to me, I started failing at everything I wanted to achieve in life and I became a depressed wreak devoid of hope.

That dream stayed with me all day. I felt like shit and was completely out of it for that day. Possibly one of the weirdest days I've ever had, as nothing has ever had the same emotional impact as that dream did.

Yes & the creepy thing about it is I know when it's going to happen...

Over the past year or so I have been having a "dream/nightmare" about me being "lifted" above my bed or "pressed" down into the mattress by "something." As noted above, I know exactly when it's going to happen. Before I lay down, I will get this creepy feeling (like sixth sense) that there is a presence around me & that night, it will and does happen. It's extremely difficult to explain but most of the time I feel pressure right above my chest cavity.

...& here is the real f*cking creepy part. I am typically awake when this happens, meaning "conscious" while dreaming. Yes, I know in a dream you are somewhat "conscious" meaning you can feel, taste, touch, see, etc everything around you, BUT you do not "know" you are dreaming ...I can & can't "get out of it." The last time this happened was about a month ago. I felt the presence that night. While in bed that night, I felt the "presence" right above me pushing down on my chest cavity. Again, I was "conscious' in my dream meaning I knew I was in some kind of "state" & was trying to get out of it so I tried to speak. I couldn't though, the only thing I could do was "moan & hum" lol. Finally, the harder I tried the louder I "spoke" & I "woke" myself up. A few minutes later, my brother came down the steps & was wondering wtf was going on. The interesting thing about it is when you "awake" from a dream, you "awake." ....by the time I was done "trying to yell" I was already up.


It's creepy. Next time I Feel the presence around me before I fall asleep, I will be sure to get the video camera out.

Well now, isn't this thread interesting and a bit creepy too.

Brittany - I haven't had that happen since I was 16 and babysitting at an unknown and really dirty place for an uncle I hardly knew. Usually happened when stressed and feeling uncomfortable especially when you feel like you shouldn't be sleeping.
The various sensations of floating and/or pressure are frequently your mind being aware of the lack of movement caused by the natural characteristics of sleep where your brain has disabled your movements while dreaming. If the sense of touch (or feeling) hasn't also been turned off (as can happen quite often really) your subconcious pulls the feelings of your blankets or clothing or whatever into your dream too. This is how I get the radio broadcasts into my dreams as I always am listening to my surrounding while sleeping.
Your "knowing" when it is going to happen is a big determination of it happening. You are convincing yourself that you will do it. A slight change in this thought process can help you to control your dreams too. At least how your dreams start off from my experiences.
For me the creepy/scary dreams would usually involve me dreaming that I am exactly in the place that I was in under the same conditions that I was in and then something like a scary character from some horror movie (think like a masked evil character) would suddenly burst into the room and come over to murder me and I would wake up so startled and frightened that it would keep me awake for the rest of the night. The creepy part being that as soon as I wake up I'm in the exact position and place that I was in when the dream happened and I couldn't be sure I was awake and not just predicting what was about to happen. Time to jump up and change the conditions.
And I have had the dream within a dream under the same conditions where I woke up in the dream from the same type of nightmare and then had it happen again to wake me up for real. Truly a scary thing when you are young.
It always goes with a real world worry about losing control or being helpless about some situation. If left too long your subconscious will start to bring it into your dream state.

I've only managed to stay awake for about 60 hours total. No drugs or anything else involved. At the end of the 60 hours I was so tired that I found that I just didn't care about what was happening around me. I was slipping into states of almost being asleep that for all intents I may have been considered asleep. But the first 24 hours went by easily as I was very busy both mentally and physically. The next 24 were a bit more of an effort as the times when the mental work wasn't hard I would find my mind wandering and then I would start to feel tired. But the summertime long days and bright light made it easier to make it through. Into that 3rd day though, my mind was really determined to remind me that I should get some sleep and all the caffiene intake was only upsetting my stomache. When the night came along and the activity dropped off I started losing the battle in strange slightly delusional episodes. I was still somewhat aware that I wasn't quite sleeping but the delusions were almost always about trying to get to sleep somewhere impossible. What little conscious thinking I had got tired of caring and trying to prevent it so eventually I found a place to flop down in and crashed.
But I have also survived for 30+ years on frequently getting only 3 hours of sleep a night for several nights in a row and having to work a job and the likes so a state of sleep deprevation is somewhat normal for me too. Sure I can manage a 7 to 9 hour night at least once in 3 weeks. It takes 12 hours to get it though and there aren't many times I can manage to spend 12 hours straight trying to get sleep so the nights of 6 hours worth keep me going.

So while on the topic of dreams, anyone have any strange dreams that end up being a perfect prediction of some event that happens later in your life ?
I have had a few strange dreams that involve people that I don't even know when I dream them but months or years later I experience the very situation that I had dreamed. The weirdest part being that there was no way of me knowing some of the people or sometimes the places involved where it happens when I dreamed it but sure enough, when it happens in real life I get a cold chill down my back and suddenly become acutely aware that I have fortold of the experience before. I frequently make up places and situations in my dreams and forget them just as fast. But some dreams cause me to wake up with clear knowledge of the place (to a surprising level of detail) and awareness of the "supporting" people of the dream (again with surprising clarity of details like a unique moustache or a outrageous Hawiian shirt) and then sometime later when the situation starts to unfold as I had dreamed it I get a weird feeling almost like dejavu but much clearer. I have even been able to react to the real world events that occur just before they happen. (A large log rolling off a pile of logs for a fire. I knew it was going to fall a certain way from a distant dream and I moved the other way in real life a few moments before it started rolling. In my dream it hit me in the leg and hurt like hell.)
So I will say premonition can and does happen. I have experienced it about a dozen times and have an open mind about the whole idea.
And I also understand a lot about the latest sciences involved in the brain and in explaining a lot of instances of dejavu too. While the latest theories can account for many occurences the scientists will still agree that some fall outside of description. So there is still room for undiscovered and, as of yet, untestable events.
Anybody else have something like it to report ?
 
Can you ever write a short paragraph? I still dont think you realize that the majority of people here dont read bricks. :whistle:

I've had the last 10 years of only getting 2-3 hours sleep a night. The sleep deprivation state that you get into IMO is equivilent to staying awake ~ 3 days straight except that it doesn't go away after sleep.

I've experienced deja-vu in a dream and then later the next day experienced the same deja-vu from the dream :/ Same setting, people and conversation.

When I was a kid, like 5 years old, I had a dream that at the end had scrolling credits with yellow text. I couldn't read them of course (you can't read in dreams), but it was still quite odd to have a dream that ended like a movie or show did. I think it had a title screen too, but not at the beginning of the dream; more like it was a false memory at the end of the dream that there was a title screen too.

oooo A Canadian! ...babysitting, I take it you're a female:) -ha interesting, just got back from Canada. -Ice fishing was TERRIBLE this year btw.

I understand what you are saying, but I don't "let it come on to me." Meaning, I just don't start thinking about it & than it happens. -I just get that feeling & it's something I really can't control, but what I can control is how it affects me. Idk, the feeling of being watched ..... doesn't really allow you to make the choice of whether to think about it or not, ha you're GOING to think about it no matter how hard you try to avoid it.


That's interesting. The "noise" around you while sleeping is audible in your dreams? -Ha, where do you sleep? The living room W/ the TV on? Ha, it's usually pretty quiet wherever I drift away sleeping.

I must have missed the part about being awake for long periods of time.

Yes, dejavu. I am far too logical for anything like that, but it definately gets me. This has happened a few times. Usually a scenerio where something goes wrong & I "know" what to do to prevent it.



...I wonder if this canadian girl is hott.....:)


Cheers from MSU

I like having dreams where I'm flying and have had nightmares where I was falling from a few hundred feet. Once I fell about 200 feet and landed on my legs, which allowed me to bounce up and down like a pogo stick. The bouncing would wake me up in a start. LOL
