Dreams and/or Nightmares

[18mlivingston]

One day i had a dream do not remember the exact day but when i was about 13 i had a dream. I i was being dragged off my bed by something or so I thought then I saw a bright light in my window. Then the wall where my lighted window was fell off to reveal that i was falling to what looked like the sun. Why it was weird is that I could feel the turbulence and the gravity plus it was really hot most vivid dream I ever had to date. Why there are no details i had my eyes closed after seeing the sun plus the dream was relatively short.

Update:Sorry I only put one period in my last version of my post its fixed now will not happen again.

[Quote58]

There is a total of 1 period in that entire post.
Ie. That is one sentence.
Dear god.

Also Jam I wish I had dreams as cool and slightly unsettling as that one, very interesting.

Also Jam I wish I had dreams as cool and slightly unsettling as that one, very interesting.

There are 2 side effects of it:
1. Real life seems grey after such dreams. And I'm almost have no emotions in real life. Sometimes I even feel like a zombie.
2. To feel good in real life I must sleep well. 1 week without dreams at all or a single day with interrupted dream and I becaming a psycho.

And I'm always having a colored dreams.

[JAM]

Do you tried to remember something when sleeping? Try it. It's fun. In some dreams even basic things you know about this world are wrong. Today I was in the world where sun sets on north. I even remember the part of dialog with someone:
--Why you are so sure where to go?
--We are going north. See the sunset? It's on the north.

And while you are a dream you're even have no idea that "sunsen on the north" is bullshit. It's just one of the rules of the world you are in.

Sometimes you can even remember things of past yourself from that reality. More than that you've just been there already.

Dreams can be a very crazy thing indeed. Now this is going into metaphysics, but there is a theory going around that when you dream, you are actually experiencing a memory from a version of yourself in another universe, and when they dream they experience YOUR memories. Now that's crazy.

Though if that is true, then whoever is dreaming up my memories... I just forever broke their universe. Sorry, hun, if you're remembering this.

[Quietus]

What's more true is that some people will believe anything. :neutral:

[Kitsune_Phoenix]

And then there are those people who can't dream at all. When they sleep, they just stop experiencing existence for a while. And then they start believing that the reason they can't dream is being born without a soul, meaning they cannot enter a trance state either (through meditation or hypnosis.)

Very sad, actually, because then those people start wanting to commit suicide and all of that other nasty stuff. They start doing all of this on the belief that they were not supposed to come into existence, that they have no purpose, function or directive. No soul, just an anomaly built from corrupted code.

All because they couldn't have a simple dream every once-in-a-while.

It works as far as I can tell.

And in reply to the other stuff you mentioned:

This is explain a lot. Like when you sleep with someone (not having sex, you pervert! =) Just sleep. Sleep, I said! =) ) this person say that you was yelling in the dream or using the bad language although you don't remember anything. You can see no dream in that night or even see something positive (nothing to yell at). Also, think of lunatism. They are people CONTROLLED by themselfs from another reality when they are sleeping. So, I'm also for this theory.

Do you also realise that sometimes (when seeing a long dream) the people you're swaped with get the control back for a time? Like you're watching the movie, then pressed the stop button, then clicked on the progress bar far beyond, closer to the end of movie and pressed the play button. You have no idea what was happening in the skipped part, but it's already happened like in a moment.

And I'll say you more. Sometimes something is going wrong and you'll swap the personality with someone in this universe... like I already did. Once. Well, at least once. Imagine of doing, let's say, "something bad" in your dream and few months later read about it in the newspaper. Man who "did" "something bad" had an amnesia for the period controlled by me.

And one time I was controlled by... something. I laid to the bed with the full moon on the sky (and there also were the increased moon activity (that's what I remember, it was a long time ago)). I was sleeping under moonlight. And I awoke in the middle of the night, laying on the floor and morphed in the ball like Samus Sonic a cat. Yeah, that was strange.

Though if that is true, then whoever is dreaming up my memories... I just forever broke their universe. Sorry, hun, if you're remembering this.

Wow, this is rough. One time I was falling into black hole in my dream nightmare, one time I was into nuclear civil war on the Mars (we see the result now: annihilation of the atmosphere), but destroying the universe... it's too much. You like the Gabriel Yulaw from the One who was killing himself from another universes to get stronger. And a small hint for you. There are the universes, not the single universe. =)

About the editing. I have the IE5 and still can edit my posts. =)



About the dreams come true. Few weeks ago I had a dream in which I had ability to control, freeze or evaporate the water like the mermaids from H₂O. It was fun. Few days later they were the gopnics in my courtyard who listened the music too loud. I can't fall asleep because of them. I was very angry and I have remember that dream. So I did exactly what I did in that dream for a few minutes, trying to summon a rain ...and it worked. =) But, to say for the truth, there were the good conditions for the rain (cloudy).



Yesterday I was seeing a dream inside a dream... that was inside of another dream. Yeah, indeed. And I knew at 3rd level of the dream that it was the dream, so I could control the things. For example, in the part of that dream I was in the classroom and I was talking with my friend who I haven't see long time ago. When teacher noticed it, she give us a notice. I said: "Shut up! Let us talk." And she shuted up and we talked. =)

[Kitsune_Phoenix]

Try asking somebody for some trance and/or induction files. It might help.

Also, I had a TRON dream last night. A very complex one.

Also, I once tried to whistle the Song of Storms. It rained as a result, but only out of coincidence.

But was it just coincidence..? :whoa:

I just had some wierd NGE-level monster in my dream, thought I'd post about it.

So at the start of the dream I wake up in a hospital next to a uniformed soldier. He tells me I'm some sort of cosmic lynchpin holding together the fabric of reality against those 'from beyond', and that I must escape because the enemy is here before we're ready to fight and there are seekers looking to find me. Just then, a flying metal chakram beheads him. It doesn't spin or turn, but an internal metal ring flips itself inside out and suddenly it's flying toward me. I cover my eyes and scream.

The dream perspective changes as if I have a vision from outside. I'm on the surface of an ocean looking at land with a well developed city in the distance. Kinda like the opening of Star Wars, from above comes in this conglomerate of golden rings loosely resembling a cross shape. It descends until it touches the surface of the water while the top pokes into the clouds above. Inside the golden rings form a million tiny rings each. They disperse, flying off in every direction. The Golden Ring monster starts heading for land, when a grassy floating island appears from the right, metal bay doors on the underside open to drop warships into the water. The warships begin bombardment of the Golden Rings, which it ignores. Any warship that gets to close to it is suddenly flipped inside out and sinks while the humans inside get lined up in a vertical pole and turn into a pillar of blood that just sits in the air, leaving standing red streaks all across the battlefield.

After a minute or two I hear my own scream again and a shockwave goes across the water. A mushroom cloud appears over land and all the buildings are gone. The Golden Rings seem slightly damaged, they pause and speak with a female voice, stating that the target phase shifted universes and it currently lacked strength to phase shift itself so it needed to get to the epicenter of my phase shift and use that as a pass-through tunnel. It engages pursuit mode, the floating rings all get a hawk-like beak and penguin flippers and fall into the water.

I wake up in a jeep with a soldier driving me on a straight road. He tells me he has to get me to a church to power me up before the enemy arrives. I look back and the road leads to a city. The city is covered in rainbow foam bubbles and there are rainbows in the sky all around. The soldier tells me that it's a side effect of the phase universe transition and that I was too weak to continue at this point. We pull up to a small church building and head inside. He starts setting up candles for some sort of ceremony while I watch out the stained glass windows at the city. Suddenly all the rainbows and stained glass turned white and I yell "It's here!". The soldier is like "Already?! It's too soon!" but then he's beheaded by a flying ring. The ring heads straight away but reality warps itself around so it's heading straight for me. I try screaming but I can't speak.

Then I wake up in real life having a panic attack.
I guess they lost.

It's weird how in real life we have almost total control over our thoughts, yet in dreams we are often so vulnerable or powerless to do anything, even small things. Of course, if the devourer of worlds from your dreams comes along in real life, there won't be much time for dreaming anyway, so we can get busy being powerless for real. :^_^:

[squishy_ichigo]

Dreams like that are always cool to have. I mean, even though its a nightmare, you gotta appreciate how cool it is. I don't write down my dreams often enough, I've had some pretty epic level dreams over the years.

As for being powerless in dreams, lucid dreaming is pretty great. I wouldn't say I ever obtain full control over the things that happen in my dreams, but honestly I wouldn't want to, I love how random they can be. But being able to know you are dreaming, and then use dream powers is goodshit. If you've never felt the thrill of flying in a dream, you are really missing out.

also, obligatory necrobump comment

I had a dream about a zombiepost apocalypse once.  All these ancient threads, thought to be dead and buried eons ago, suddenly came back to life and terrorized the innocent forumgoers.  Though most people thought it to be baseless rumors, you could hear whispered talk of a secret haven, where no zombies roamed, if only we could make it there alive:  ZelConst.

More seriously, it is an extremely rare occurrence for me to have any recollection of my dreams, good or bad.

The other night, I dreamed I was fighting some Ukrainian mobsters. They started winning, so I woke up.

[Zero One]

I've been playing a lot of Sniper Elite 4, and doing research into guns for modelling, so my dream this afternoon (because what sleep pattern) was pretty gun-oriented. Really just a dream of testing guns. Also the most vivid dream I've had in a long time. I usually can't remember my dreams at all.

[Boured]

I remember one dream where I thought I woke up, went the entire day doing everything as I normally would. Except in this everything went wrong and I had horrible luck with absolutely everything. I can't really say this is a a nightmare per say, as I didn't feel much of any emotion during it. All I know is my brain dislikes me greatly :P

Discord dream journal: (I apologise in advance if they read like shitposts. I never wrote these in my actual dream journal, I just woke up and put what I dreamed about in metconst discord) 

    This dream begins with the pig guy from beyond good and evil 2 riding a semi. later I'm with michaelangelo from tmnt chasing after this purple jumping slug thing with ninja moves. It jumped like a flea and we ran around town to catch it. eventually we caught it using a green pea pod on the street, but traffic was busy and pig guy from beyond good and evil swerved around us. The second time it escaped it started flying. then it landed on my shoulder and it was some kind of wasp hybrid. i hold it by its snout and start petting it until it eventually settles down. we head back home (lots of warning signs, danger level 25, dragons nearby) and instead if sewers we take this old elevator to floor 54 (entered at 55). once we're there i sit at a place like a bed, and it seems to have become a dog wasp hybrid. I scratch its tummy as it rolls over a few times. and I point to some text on a wall about what I thought was being a mutant for beginners, but was actually a story about how we as mutants got gud. michael showed up a little later and then sub zero appeared and started yelling and being creepy about how his hands were cut off (suddenly pointy fingers poke out from his gloved knuckles) and then it goes back to a series of gender-swapped sub zero cutscenes where he loses his hands, and his metal claw weapons, and his skin turns green when he loses his claw weapons. Sub zero's pissed and talks about all the fucked up shit he wants to do to michaelangelo and his family (particularly brutal chopping stuff on mikey's mom) and then the dream ended.

    I also had another dream where my dad was in the military (he is anyway) and on our visit to the mall there was this massive seperatist droid army,(which happen to look like clone commandos) but my dad manages to reprogram a lot of these currently-idle droids to attack each other. To make myself not seem shady I went in line for cashier, but didn't have anything on me so i bought box of cereal and oat bar next to cashier. People begin to run like crazy as droids attack droids, and eventually everyone is evacuated saying it was some sort of terrorist attack, while our family sat inside at a diner table. outside through glass door we saw a superstore cop with silver mk14 ebr with a strange foregrip and laser sight patrolling and headed our way. my dad gets on walkie-talkie and states his rank in the military, evidently on the same frequency as superstore cop. He comes over and they begin to talk, superstore cop trying to get father to tell the truth like he wouldn't get in trouble for destroying droid baddies. then the dream ended

I dreamt an episode of some show and thought that was the actual episode for about a day

Oh, interesting, I made a thread like this back on Beast's Lair.

Originally posted on Beast's Lair:

I was going to kill a politician who's name I couldn't remember because he was following me around thinking that chatting with my friends was some sort of political move against him and either thwarting me, or trying to talk louder than me from across a room to someone else. I no longer see what, if anything, made sense about that. Also, for some reason, one of my friends from high school, Benedict Cumberbatch, and a literal ratperson like in D&D were there helping me combat this guy's over-the-top machinations in some sort of bomb-shelter hideout and I wasn't questioning any of it. It all seemed perfectly normal and made complete sense.

I don't remember anything of this anymore except for me punching a large, very unfit man in a blue suit in a 1980s diner. Punching people is generally not an idea I entertained at the time. Or now, for that matter.

i once dreamed that i had a party with friends, i woke up with the driest of mouths and the Epitaph of Hangovers, my friend's mom was taking us back to my home, for some reason it was in a school bus and each time i would look at my friend directly he would fade out like i had a dark spot over him, but i could see him totally fine if i looked at him from and angle...

then i looked out the window when we were out of the woods and coming closer to the sea where i live, where i looked out from the windows and saw the sea had retracted and in the remaining sea there was something moving really fast making the water splash and bubble but not enough was out to see what was in it.

we went to a VERY mixed building, for context, it was my high school mixed with middle school that i never attended since they merged in real life before i had a chance to enter the building and the "buildings" both were at the wrong place closer to my house (about 200 meters/yards) and was kind of techno or techy with lots of glass panels and automatic stairs...

i made my way to the gym where there was a lighter on a bench for some reason, i picked it up and put it in my pockets for some reason... next thing you know a Tsunami hit the building and landmass and we were forced to evacuate to the roof!

chaos was around and panic was allured in every one's behavior, no one could hide it BUT what was at cause was not the Tsunami, it was the blue metallic Alien like beings picking up people from the, broken by water, buildings in this Tsunami with their blue Eye looking like a flying squid of some sort grabbing people with their tentacles and flying to space with them!

as i was grabbed, i quickly pulled the lighter i found and tried to burn the tentacle and it worked, it dropped me on the roof and as i looked around i saw the chaos and realized i was stuck in this disaster not knowing if i was better off letting it take me (to safety?!) or stay here and fend for my self if even possible...

i rarely dream, most of the time i just get killed by random people with machine guns invading the town or some sort but this dream was special since it was not as generic.

Fuck da roolz I'm bringing this thread back.

Apologies for language/grammar these were copypasted from DMs with my husband. I tried to just write them down ASAP so I didn't forget details in them.

I had this dream I bought a cheap android phone off of woot and it had a physical power switch on the side. I tried using it and it booted up a fuckin gameboy emulator lmao

i had a dream that there was a bf1 dlc that added a shiny red arm plasma cannon to the game a la metroid with blue lights.

longer dreams below

[spoiler]i had a dream that i was at some family event, and i was up on some balcony, and a high school friend returned some kind of tin on the balcony without knowing i was there. he was on his knees saying something i forget if it was an apology or what. but anyway i go to check it out, i touch it, and soon after I get really loud tinnitus in one of my ears. this happens about 2 more times. then something pops up in my head, like i read online somewhere that "after 3 loud rings of tinnitus you begin to hear screams" and after the third ring I heard someone yelling into my ear. I was terrified. I stumbled over to my grandmother at the end of the balcony moaning in tears "please help me" she was fucking horrified. said "get away from me!" walked thru the door and closed it behind her. Eventually the effects subsided and I went to look at it again to see it was a tin with some kind of drug.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]i also had a prior dream that was about me out in a desert in saudi arabia, coming across this river / bumpy waterslide really that was majestically tiled down to a drop into a pool of water. This waterslide was how you entered the nearby town. It was called the "birth canal" by the local populace, and they held ceremonies where their babies in floating baskets would ride down this river slide thing and land on the pool. This was the only way travellers could enter the town too, so in a way they were also "born" from this "birth canal" to enter the town.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]had a dream bf was taking me and sis to see family relatives, we brought sleeping bags and other shit

there was a radio in the car playing some music, i forget song lyrics mostly but remember "burrito in my mouth bottom half in a whore that's how I became the middle of the colony"

bf drifts too far in a right turn and loses control, we end up in the middle of a lower body high swamp. We hurry to open the driver door, I lift my computer and sleeping bag up before they are hit with water and while wading my way out of the car think "convenient that I have a sleeping bag after this" We make it to some shoreline on the other side of the swamp where i accidentally dipped my computer bag in the water a but and was like "good thinf this is an elitebook it'll probably shrug off such a small amount of water"

this shore has some short trees with all the branches in the way of the shore so we crawled to the shore on our knees. bf and my sister make it to shore and he offers to grab my bag but i said i dont need your help it will probably be ruined by getting dipped deep in the water. bear in mind the water has a bit of a wave that pushes to and away from the shore and i was almost at the point of being under. So I say fuxk it and push up accidentally getting nose deep in the water. my bags are ok but when i stand up on the shore my bf looks like someone just died. I asked him what's wrong and he says "you're wondering if this swamp is the kind that will kill you? the one with the proteins? it is. you're DYING" so I say it's so early on can't I get this nipped in the bud? then I remember that this protein is 100% fatal (prions) and will turn my brain into swiss cheese. I wail "NOOO" and wake up.[/spoiler]

I had a dream when I was 12 or so, I was at my grandparent's house, and for some reason or another, I had every game for Atari and Nes ever made! It was the best feeling in my life!  :razz:

years later, as emulators took off and I now own every game for Atari and Nes, it's not as exciting as I remember it being in the dream.  :^_^:
