15 Interesting Facts about Dreams

cool !

I have a strange re-occuring “environment” in my dreams (same place that doesn’t exist but different situations): very hard to describe but I wonder what they mean

when i was a little girl, I had a dream that I wanted to buy make-up and my mother would not let me, and then I was walking on paths similar to a tree maze my aunt had, and then I was chased by a piece of bread and a skeleton.

@aurelienne haha, the part with a piece of bread made me laugh

Nice post. I agree with all post exept number 4. Im pretty sure i dream with faces ive never seen before and i would like to know the scientific evidence that can proove the opposite. I cant understand how scientists can assure that.

Mostly my dreams end with me falling from a cliff or a high building. The anxiety maxes out and opens my eyes.

I went to a college that is documented to be haunted. I was laying down to sleep during my freshman year when I thought I saw a ghost under my roomates bed. At that time I began to try to talk or move and I couldn’t. I tried to turn my body over and fall off the bed but couldn’t.

For the longest time I spooked myself into believing a ghost had paralyzed me. To this day I’ve had dreams where I can’t move for what feels like minutes, and when I wake up it’s always a bit scary.

I think #10 explains why this happens. Thanks for this!

I see in my dreams that I am walking then running and then suddenly start flying like super man )..its not possible in real life but I njoy it too much in dreams…thats the beauty of dreams., good use of 8 passive hours every night

@Pablo — I agree with you, I see many strange faces in my dreams …

I dream every night and remember my most of my dream if I repeat the whole thing to myself when i wake up. I always have lucid dreams as well.

Recently, a lot of my dreams involve water. I had one where I had to run across water to get away from the effects of a bomb. I could see the waves right behind me as I finally made it a safer spot. I’ve had dreams where I’m living in a cabin, and right outside my upstairs window is just the ocean. If I went out my window, I would be in the water. Last night, I had a dream I was in this beautiful mountainy place with a gorgeous lake and I was going water skiing with one of my friends that I actually know. That one was a bit more erotic. Lol.

I’ve had dreams where people are after me- one I was involved in a robbery and everyone was looking for me so I was trying to escape. I made it into a hospital where I tried to get my story straight and tried to find a way to get someone to help me. I had left my iPhone in the getaway car ao I searched the hospital for a phone. I accidently met a lawyer who offered to help me. Minutes later, the manhunt was over and I was no longer being hunted. It was like everything has been forgotten and I was off the hook. For whatever reason, I could not get over the fact that I might have sold my soul to devil in order to recuperate my freedom.

Had a dream about brainwashing event that was taking place where I was living. It was like a body snatcher thing.

Sooo many fun dreams . I love dreaming!!

Wow very interesting post, I like that all dreams are symbolic. My weirdest dream was when I was in the middle of a school shooting. What was weird is that it seemed so real. I got shot, and as soon as a did I woke up! Intense to say the least.

Seldom do I recall my dreams, even when I’ve just awaken up.

I took a dream class for about a year. Here’s how you remember dreams: When you go to sleep, you set your intention: I will welcome and remember my dreams tonight. Keep a journal and pen on your nightstand. As soon as you wake up, write your dreams down! You really do forget them quickly. When I re-read my old entries, it feels like someone else wrote them. I seem to forget them even after I write them down!

Class members could see repeating themes for each other much more easily than we could for ourselves. I learned about another aspect of myself, and my classmates too. I am a painter, and dreams provide unusual and often beautiful visuals that are unique and have great meaning for me (at least subconsciously!). I love the illustrations you used in this post.

I think I’ll find a notebook to put by the bed for 2010. Thanks for the inspiration! (Found you via Guy Kawasaki’s Tweet)

@betty thanks for sharing with everyone! I known this technique and tried it one night It was fun, however the night turned out to be rather sleepless.

As for me, I find lucid dreaming the most interesting and incredible experience. There are also very easy techniques for it, and then – fly, jump sky high, have s e x and virtually do anything you want, because you are in control. I remember how hard it was learning to fly – I always couldn’t stop and land, and I flew as fast as Jet plane which was really scary and it often waked me up. (It is like Avatar – you have to learn things). But when I mastered the flying skill, I had so much fun many many nights I was lucid dreaming.

I had a dream where I was hanging out with rapper Jay-Z. We were walking around town doing different things. When I woke up the next morning I found that I had gone to sleep with itunes playing. One of his albums had indeed played during the night. Scrolling through my library to see what else had played, I began to remember some dreams I had forgotten. The really interesting thing was that there were huge gaps where I didn’t have any associations with the music, and then there were spots where I had vivid associations. These gaps seemed to correspond with the length of sleep cycles.

I tend to be in situations involving high anxiety and mostly with people trying to kill me. Or I dream about my surround area (snow covered mountains and forests) as they were before they were modified. As in cartoons, the laws of nature do not apply unless they are already implied in the dream, such as real-world situations like close-combat, or I become aware of gravity, such as flying with no problem, then realizing I shouldn’t be able to fly and crashing into the ground.

I liked No. 1; good reasoning to start a dream log. Sometimes I wake up and think, “What the hell was that all about?”

I have a recurring dream that I am walking on what feels like a bridge, against a huge brick wall but even though my eyes are open in the dream, I can’t see anything. I can feel bitter cold, and the wet wall and I can feel that when I step too far out, my foot slips into water so I have to walk with my hands against the wall beside me and I walk and keep winding and winding and I bump into other people sometimes and they are always whispering but I can never really hear them. The only thing I ever know in the dream is that I have to get to the middle, wherever that is. I feel dread and I feel like I am going to die if I don’t get there soon but I always wake up before I get there. When I fall back asleep, it’s the same dream but I am back at the start and I feel like I’ve been forced back to the start and like I have lost time.

When I was about six I really coveted this transformers toy. One night I dreamt that I was given it. Upon waking I spent what seemed like hours hunting the house looking for it. The realisation that it was not real was a crushing one, and one that has stayed with me. To my mind dreams are a particularly cruel joke of nature…

i respont to people when i sleep not always talking but sitting up and looking at them.
am i weird or wat

One time I had a dream that I was in the middle of a wasteland and there was nothing but me, a dead tree, a bench covered with surgical tools, and Gene Wilder. So me and Gene were bent over the bench staring at the tools, laughing. Then he turns to me with a serious face and sticks a scalpel in my gut and whispers “No one will hear you.”.

Once I had a dream that came exactly true in real life the next day. It was really weird.

Whenever I have a bad dream, I can always wake myself up! It is really great! And it’s always in the moment right before something really bad is going to happen! I say to myself “You have to wake up!” and I can feel my eyes FIGHTING to open! Very strange…

When I was younger I used to have a recurring nightmare about a monster ( the one seen out side of the Hauted House ride at Santa Cruz Beach and Boardwalk) Chasing me on some sort of floating object while I had to hope rock to rock over a lava river.

When I was a kid I was eating raisins from a plate with a blue Chinese dragon on it. Shortly afterwards I fell asleep and dreamt that the dragon was rampaging through our village chasing me and everyone else down the street and eating people!

I always have dreams about people getting shot and killed. About a month ago I had a dream that I was in Washington DC with my family and it was a beauiful day and kids were walking up this green hill to the white house and all of the suden the ground was shaking and people were screaming then huge bombs came from the sky Destorying a lot of things and the sky went fom a blue to a dark red It was a crazy ass dream and it seemed so real….as if it was yet to come.

4 is not true.

I once dremt I had something,and upon waking I spent hours looking for it and asking all my family members if they had seen it.Everyone told me no,and some said I had never had what I was llooking for.Now I can’t rember what it was I was looking for.Recently,for the past two years or so I have been having very vivid dreams about my wife.They are about doing things,and going places that we didn’t do or go to.Some times they are about having sex with her,the strange thing is these dreams about my wife are usually the only ones I am able to rember.The really strange part about these dreams is,we have been divorced for nine years I haven’t spoken to her and I have only seen her once in all that time.She wanted the divorce,I didn’t.After ten years she told me she was not over her boyfriend from before me and went back to him.I thought I was over her,is this my mind’s way of letting me know I’m not?Does this happen to other people?Is it normal?

I once dreamed I heard a noise, coming from the windows. I got up, but couldn’t locate the source of the noise. It was coming somehow, from all around me. Then I realized. I was inside my own head and hearing my snoring!

Number 4 may be true since our mind can warp, switch features and colours of people.

I usually have dreams where I am going with the “flow” of the dream in a surralistic enviroment… before suddenly realising that this IS a dream and that I am in control… then I usually start to mess around with things.

i heard a roumer that if you die in your dream then you will die in real life…like if you die in your dream by a train, then the shock is enough to kill you in your sleep..is this true?

REM & SNORING

The reason why you can not dream while snoring is that REM sleep is a deep state of the sleeping cycle and snoring occurs while you are falling asleep or just before waking up (for example in ppl that suffer from sleep apnea), in a superficial state.

COOL POST!! Thanx!

you can kinda die in your dreams or at the least hit the ground and not die i had one dream i was in a field with my friend and he started running so did i and i realised we were getting chased i started to float and tried to run but i couldnt then i fell down into hell and was fine and then it went on for what seemed a while with a whole school ordeal on how i couldnt spell in there language down there and strangely i could see my own house from hell….

I often dream about being chased and It always feels like i’m running in super slow motion (like running under water), it frustrates the heck outta me.

when I was in my early 20′s after a night of drinking I dreamt that I was in a pool and the water got increasingly warm. When I woke up, I had actually wet the bed. It was pretty hilarious.

Crazy dream…

I was on a huge field broken up into checkers (much like a chess set) and the sky was really grey. I was playing a game of chess against the devil for my soul haha. I was both a piece (the queen I believe) and directing the board. I don’t remember much of the game except that there was a lot of action, the game happened very rapidly, and it was a lot like a battle. The pieces didn’t have bases but feet, like people would, but they still looked like the pieces (ie- bishops with feet). The only difference in the game was that you didn’t say “checkmate” when the other player’s king was in danger- you just took it. Anyhoo it was my move and the devil was either going to have his knight kill me or he could take my king with his rook but I took his king with my bishop and won (and hence, got to keep my soul)!!!

You know how when people are right about to die in dreams they wake up? I don’t….I actually die and am in this weird purgatory that is all white, just white nothingness.

When i was in 2nd Grade, i had this dream that i woke up in the back of my Dad’s Car and that i felt my gums with my tongue and there were no teeth. I had blood on my shirt and i felt paralyzed in pain. I had this same dream about 2 or 3 nights in a row.

Then on the last day of 2nd grade me and a friend were racing our bikes down a steep hill by my house. We had done it before, no problem, but one time he slowed down and i didnt know why.

Then i saw a car come around the blind corner, and i slammed on my FRONT brakes of my bike and went over the handlebars. Face first, taking a bite out of asphalt, i tore the right side of my face up, and lost my 2 front permaenant teeth.

I was knocked unconscious and woke up in the back of my dad’s car, with my mom driving. I woke up asking if this was real life, over and over again. I couldn’t believe this had happened.

I agree with the #5 post, my brain can spontaniously( sp?) generate entire environments, creatures, feelings and other sensations, yet it cannot produce a face that it has never seen before? I dont think the brain is being given enough credit in this regard.

10: Body Paralysis, this happened to me one night.
i woke up and tried to move my arm. i could feel it moving but i could see it, it wasn’t moving.
i was scared as hell.

thats cool but this video explains dreaming alot more and why its happening its really sickkkkk

I remember that I was dreaming of ghost spirits of whatever you wanna call them. and in my dream I was running out of my step=granma’s house. then I woke up. I was on my right side and I looked behind me to see a little girl. dressed in clothes from colonial times and she had her hands behind her back and she was rocking back and forth on her heels and toes. then I turned away and went back to sleep, then some loud and non human noise woke me up. I looked and the girl or someone a tad older was sitting on my bed just staring at me, she had long hair and was wearing some kinda night gown with sleeves. and she was just looking at me. she didnt speak and I went to scream but I couldnt. I was afraid. so, in my mind, I started praying and it seemed like forever, before the image started to disappear into the wall behind it. This has never happend again, I’ve never told my family. I have actually only told acouple of people. Im afraid if I keep talking about it, it will happen again. tell me what you think

@cheesyrockstarmullet just reading your story frightened me enough, I can only imagine how it felt when it actually happened!
Actually, my distant cousin also told me an interesting story. Back then she was just a little girl when this happened.. She woke up one night and started crying. Suddenly, out of nowhere some kind of old lady appeared near her bed and said “don’t cry, everything will be ok”. After that, the place became really haunted.They often heard the door bell ringing, but there was no one behind the door.
First, I knew this story from my mom, and recently I met my cousin (now ~18 I believe) and she reassured this is truly what happened back then, and they even called a priest to help them. They don’t live in that place anymore.

In my most recent dream, I was engaged to be married to my roommate, but we were told we would have to wait. I think it has to do with gay marriage. It is something I think about a lot, and one of my goals in life is to be married in my home state.

Does anyone have the answer to why I always end up waking up after I’m dreaming that I fall off a cliff? I always wake up before I hit the ground.

omg, that;s awesome.

I hate a sexual dream ocne and it was amazing, I woke up what felt like directly after the dream orgasm and i was panting, it was marvelous!!

I run sleep studies @ night on people. I can solidly deny #14. People snore all the time during REM sleep. They also certainly don’t even breath sometimes (sleep apnea) and still be dreaming, and I have seen someone’s heart stop beating for 15 seconds while in REM sleep (dream stage). Not only can you snore, but you could also not be breathing, and your heart not be beating and you could still be breathing. However, you better only do it for very short periods of time of you may be dreaming forever.

well here’s some personal facts regarding my own dreams:

1. sometimes even if i have already forgotten a dream i had, i sometimes tend to remember some as actual memories often making me say something like “oh i remember doing the laundry yesterday, but hey, wait, I didn’t! ah yes! it was a dream!” but only for dreams that relate to everyday living.

2. even if most dreams are forgotten, some tend to be really unforgettable.

3. The body paralysis some of the commenters have said are called “Bangungot” here in the Philippines. It can even cause death in some cases. I myself have experienced it too and have somehow grown accustomed to it so I just sleep back and ignore it *suddenly waking up and realizing you can’t move – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangungot

Up until the last couple of years, when I began to form my first stable intimate relationship; I have had re-occurring dreams involving deformed or disabled children. They started when I was really young, less than ten years old. They’ve all been specifically MY children. They fall apart, or die on the spot, or simply didn’t develop properly in the womb. I finally had a dream about a little girl that looked like a mixture between my boyfriend and myself. She was perfect and happy. Haven’t had a bad one since then.

Heh yea I have definitely had orgasms while dreaming, and I always remember them when I wake up, but I’m rarely ‘wet’!

I guess that explains why i don’t dream when i sleep on my back. Im too busy snoring!

Weirdest dream ive ever had was that my brother was one of those things you pour water on and they expand…It was a pink flamingo to be exact..I knew it was him because the voice..Sadly at the end of my dream i accidently stepped on it

I had a dream that I was a mellon in the market in one of those big bins. I was waiting for someone to pick me take me and eat me. What could that meen

My most recent dream started as a false awakening in the middle of the night, and I was still laying in my bed. I looked over to my closet and saw a small garden gnome walking across the top shelf of my closet. For some reason I was under the impression that this gnome was evil and was stealing my stuff. I got extremely angry and grabbed it and tried to choke it (but of course it was still a ceramic garden gnome and I don’t think this worked). And then I woke up wondering wtf just happened, double-checked my closet, and went back to sleep.

I had a dream with my recently deceased brother in it. He had a big puffy down jacket on and I was hugging him but couldn’t feel his body.

Love the imagery that goes along with the 15 themes. Really beautiful stuff.

for some reason i don’t sleep at night anymore but when i do sleep I love dreaming there is noting better

I once had a dream that I was lucid dreaming, but I still had no control over it. In fact, the dream was about what I could and could not do when I lucid dream. In the dream I realized I was dreaming but without actually realizing it. When I woke up I was totally confused about it.

I was sleeping with my Media Player going on my laptop and I had a dream that these aliens were chasing me and I fell down and one got on top of me and started going: “Hey baby do yah wanna lay down with me, hey ababy do you wanna lay down by my side, hey baby, HEY BABY!” I woke up and saw that I was listening to “Tommy The Cat” By: Primus Lolol it freaked me out

i had the weirdest dream last night and i was at a school and the teachers were all weird and i can only recalll some of the names like my friiend jessica. in my dream jessica was raped by one of the teachers and i had to stop him from being evil and wut not. it was weird though cause it had alot of magical ailment like i was a vampire, and so were many. i had to pertect her and others it was very strange especially cause i havent seen her for about 3 to 4 years in real life then all the sudden i have a dream about her getting raped by a teacher who has powers greater then most. well anyway i kill him cause i hate rapist and then i killed myself which made no sense but it happened.

Tho im not a reader type lol but i really enjoyed reading these facts. thx

Interesting until you got to the bogus “dreams are deeply symbolic” crap. No, they’re not.

i know you forget most of your dreams but i think you may be able to remember some of the forgotten ones while you are dreaming, i have recurring dreams sometimes that follow a story with the same characters and “plot” of numerous previous dreams, but when i wake up i cant remember the specifics, just the feeling that i have a separate “dream life” that follows its own world rules like physical laws like gravity or time but also emotional laws between characters, it is hard to explain but i often feel upon waking up that i am living a separate life in my dreams to which my waking self is unaware… anyone else experienced anything like this?

@ Pablo and DT… I’d like to see the proof behind this too but the reason why you don’t recognise the faces whatsoever is because that includes people you’ve even just walked past in the street apparantly… I read that… like your mind sees the faces but you don’t consciously register them

Many a times I find myself dreaming of my office and things that I don’t like there. Don’t know what it, dreaming of things we hate, actually means?

#1 & #4 seem to be in conflict.

Precognitive dream I had:
The day before this crane collapsed in NYC, while taking a nap on the couch, I had a dream of a crane collapsing, only in San Francisco. Told my wife about it that evening, and then I saw the news the next morning and couldn’t believe it!

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23649318/

When I was young I had a reacquiring dream about this park, always different situations but the same park. About a year ago driving home from Vegas we passed the park, a very creepy feeling.

I have about one precognitive dream per month. I never remember the dream until I get that Deja vu feeling and then I realize whats going to happen next.

I wonder how it was established it’s a ‘fact’ that dreams are symbolic. I find it highly doubtful it could be prove. What I think is more likely is that somebody is drawing off Freud’s theories, which weren’t really supported by sufficient evidence to constitute fact.

This article was great. The topic is one i like to discuss with strangers and friends alike. I have very vivid and seemingly real dreams. Have: been ripped to pieces by sharks and everything went white, hazy and numb; murdered (throat slit) in a parking lot while walking to my car (felt the rain and the cold knife on my throat); Owned a ‘playboy’ type mansion; had or developed super powers many times; found the love(s) of my life. A fair amount of the time when things seem very unreal I will become aware that I am in a dream and am able to control or alter it, once I was on Jurassic Park type island and being chased by the dreaded velociraptor and had the thought ‘wait raptors dont exist anymore’ and was then able to chase and fight them with ease. There was a time when I would experience such strong déjà vu 3-4 times a week that it would hit me like a rock and I would stop mid sentence or stride (whatever I was doing at the time) and try to declare or explain what was going to happen. A lot of the time part of a dream would flash through my mind again. I have even had horrible horrible night terrors where I wake up unable to breathe or in that instant know that there is something evil in my room or hovering over me. There are a lot of other instances that I have written down or still remember. Dream interpretation has always been an interest of mine, if anyone wants to talk further feel free to hit me up ! yesbakin@gmail

I know I have had precognitive dreams…
The most memorable one was when I woke up after dreaming about getting beaten by a bunch of dudes that I could not evade. The beating was brutal and kept going and I could not escape (I rarely have violent dreams). I called my sister because it was so disturbingly vivid and told her about it…. That night I was jumped by about 10 dudes when I was walking back from a bar…. I told my sis the next day she wasnt gonna believe what had just happened.
Its happened before and since then but that is the only time I happened to tell someone about the dream BEFORE it came true.
Most of the precognitive dreams seem so completely out of place that I do not fathom for a second they could ever come true, nor do I necessarily care because they are usually trivial occurrences that I couldnt care less whether they happened or not, so I forget about them until they happen…. sometimes multiple years later. I wonder if its happened more times than I can remember because I think I only recall the ones that are unique and/or surprisingly unlikely.

And very rarely I can tell when Ive just experienced a precognitive dream… Its hard to describe but the pacing of the dream as it unfolds is different and its more vivid…Or rather it doesnt unfold at all but more like Im observing through the eyes and ears of a participant in a pre thought out play that Im strongly emotionally and perceptively connected to.

This seems to summarize #1
http://xkcd.com/430/

my first wet dream is i was having sex with avril lavigne

come to think of it, most of my dreams nowadays are lucid dreams.
i never knew it till just now; i’ve always wondered why i could control what i do in my dreams, like i’m simply thinking up stuff even if i know they’re not real.
usually, they’re almost no different to my reality actions(like waking up sleepy and not wanting to get out off bed). i usually wake my self up at these states because i feel i’m already awake

i’ve always wondered about Precognitive dreaming.
i notice sometimes i see peoples actions or states i’m in, like watching a certain movie at a certain time with certain people at a certain position, and some how they feel familiar. like i’m going back in time, and even if i have control, somehow i end up doing the same thing i knew i was going to do. for some reason the familiar scenes up come when i watch A-team. lol

Hey …..

thanks for the info, i have been having some very vivid and insane dreams, something I only found out much later in intro psych, lately, i have just been posting em on my blog.

I found 4 and 5 on this list to be very interesting. Thanks for posting this!

Due to a brain malformation that presented when I was 38, I completely lost my sense of balance in 2004. Having no equilibrium, I cannot walk, or run, an activity that I enjoyed since High School.
Once in a while I have a wondrously vivid, recurring dream. In it I have complete freedom of movement, more than running, more than flying…it is an effortless and graceful gliding, without the boundaries of physics, yet I still feel the rushing wind of great speed about me. With only a thought I am swimming through the air over endless dunes, or over the chop of open waves.
It is so compelling, so realistic in it’s sensation, that I have often found myself weeping as I wake, desiring nothing more than to be back in that dreamscape, without gravity, without friction…only the moment and the movement.

I cry bull on number 4. If we can’t recall the faces how can we identify that they are the people in our dreams. Perhaps, they are similar, but haven’t we all mistaken a stranger for someone we thought we knew?

My boyfriend totally clocked my in the face the other night while he was dreaming. I’m not too sure about that whole paralysis thing

Every once in a while I have a dream that I’m running from something. The whole time I need to urinate but I can’t. At the last moment I wake up and run to the toilet. Whew!!! I’ve had some close calls.

i’ve had three truly memorable dreams. The first one was a warped scooby-doo/ invasion of the body snatchers dream that i had as a kid. It’s the only dream i can remember that was totally in 2-d (and scared the bejezus out of me).
Next, is the classic “Get a toy you REALLY wanted” dream. (damn gamecube…)
The third is the most vivid dream I’ve ever felt. I got into a fight with a bunch of guys, and they got me on the ground and actually drilled my head with a screwdriver. I even remember the “pop” i felt as the vacuum was released from the inside of my head.

I always have dreams that come true a week later. It’s really bizarre when my dream is happening. I also have dreams that I remember dreaming about as a kid and sometimes the story that is happening continues. Isn’t that strange?

to GeorgeB16 i heard that the reason to this is ur minds defence mechanism, i wakes u up before any harm can b done. just wat i heard though

Lol reading all these dreams is awsome. heres mine:

When i was young i would have this dream over and over and over again, then for about 10 years it stopped, i had it again a couple months ago. im floating in space or something and theres like a floating grid infront of me, like a calendar but nothing in the squares, i can walk on it. this is where it gets wack, theres a row of basketballs bouncing infront of me all in a row. some nights it was basketballs other nights it was soccer balls. I always got this clamy feeling in my mouth and then it ends. ROFL so wack. i also have dreams like i walk out my front door and theres a polar bear across the street, he starts running at me and i try to run away but i feel like im made out of lead and i run in super slow motion. very aggravating, ppl also chase me around with giant swords and t-rex’s are always running around. lol my dreams are nuts

I always have the same dream whenever I’m sick with a fever. I dream I’m sitting in a school desk while everyone I know – teachers, students, family, and friends – surround me and point and laugh at me. I don’t know what I did, but I instantly get humiliated and wake up.

Prepair for the science. DMT is produced in the brain naturally. It is also a severe psychedelic drug. Speculation is that DMT is produced while we sleep. It is also know to erase the experience after it is stopped being produced. Smaller production means a greater likelyhood of remembering what happened. On another note, check out youtube for Joe Rogan’s experiment into DMT, hilarious.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyltryptamine

I can’t remember exactly, but I thought it was about March 2004, I dreamt about being at a hill side 10 story shopping complex in Thailand, when I heard a loud roar and then saw everybody running for high ground. It was a giant wave that smashed as high as the seventh story of the department store building. And of course, about 9 months later, the south Asia tsunami of 2004 took place.

I once had a dream where I realised I was dreaming, whilst still dreaming.
From that point on I could control what I was doing in my dream.

I had a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners were to sat down together at the table of brotherhood.

Once I had the most vivid dream ever.

I was in a car crash with my best friend, coming back from Uni one day, I still remember the sound of the cracking steel of the car, crystals all over while we were going down the hill…

…but the most scary thing is that i remember SMELLING my own blood and the petrol of the car, even my ears didn´t let me hear anything (just like when you hear a very strong noise, and you remain deaf for a minute).

Very Scary…

…I just hope it will not be premonitory.

I once had a dream that a dark spirit was walking up the stairs on the side of the building I lived in and was trying to get into the apartment, I woke up rather shaken. What was even scarier was when I told my flatmate about it she had exactly the same dream that night.

since i’m teen i dream with a man , i call him Mr. death because everytime someones death had impact in me or i was related . i dream wtih him night before and then boom ! someones dies the next day
he is very weird character , beautiful young man with charms (i’m girl )

i remember his face in great detail , the night my grandfather died , i dreamed him in a hospital wearing doctors clothes he’ll always stare at me while doing somehting in this case performing some operation with lots of blood , trying to seduce me or mock me with those black eyes … then he suddenly start to scream and chase me down the corridors with horrible screams , i ‘m crying and lock myself in room and i can hear his laugh , just few hours later my uncle called us (we’re living in another country) that gradad had passed in hospital early in the morning

i had another dream with him , this time he was chasing some group of boys in a highway , but with different clothes like playing another role , if he catch one of the boys he will chop they head off … like that till he kill them all , and again he start to smile at me and chase trying to scare me , he never talk just smile or scream and have this charming look … whatever … the next day i heard the news , one of my mother’s friends dies in car crash along with a group of his friends

away from this freak … i remember as a kid having a momentary dream image in a dream when i see scissors just open and closing , i somehow remembered this 2 seconds image , next day i see my mother’s hand trying to open some thing with scissors , form the same angle i see them as in my dream

i don’t know how i manage to remember those things maybe humans do that all the time just some people have luck with their good memory

What is the name of the art used in #s 1,6,8,12, and 13?

Good bit of information still doesn’t explain why I always dream about boobs and naplam.

My father worked as a bush pilot during summers when I was young. I used to have nightmares about wearing a parachute that was strapped so tightly I couldn’t breathe- I would wake up gasping for air. The summer that I turned ten years old his plane crashed and he was killed, I have always wondered if the dreams were connected to a fear of that happening. I don’t recall having those dreams after that.

On quite a few occasions I have realized that in fact I am dreaming and am then able to interact with the dream. I can choose what I want to do and where I want to go and at times alter the dreamscape to whatever suits my fancy. Lucid dreaming is by far the most entertaining way to dream. As far as sleep paralysis goes, I have experienced that many times as well. When I was younger I would wake up but be unable to move or even scream. It felt like something was sitting on my chest and it was quite terrifying. It wasn’t until later that I learned that it was actually a natural part of the sleep process, and that people had been describing a similar experience all throughout history, with many different, and usually superstitious, explanations for what was going on.

It is actually quite easy to realize that you are dreaming and learn how to interact and control them. Most of what I learned I did by trial and error, but there are a lot of good books about the subject with many useful hints to get you going.

Aurelenne is lucky a dish didn’t run away with the bread and try to eat it with it’s spoon…
When are dreams going to be in high defiinition!! The first hurdle is getting beyong the fact that most dream defy deifinition!

I’m working on a research paper about dreams. I compare Freud’s theories of the unconscious and interpretaion of dreams with the dream sequences in a japanese author’s novel: The Wind-up Bird, by Haruki Murakami. my final conclusion is that the yin yang is the key to understand the novel.
so those of you who are interested in dreams, you would certainly enjoy this novel and others by Murakami (i also recommend Kafka on the Shore)

i really like the pictures btw! the same it’s hard to write dreams down (as images are essential in them) it’s also hard to capture the weirdness of dreams in a picture. whoever did this did a great job!

I cannot remember most of my dreams as #1 implies. But there have been times where the dream was so real and traumatic that I can remember many glimpses and then my mind fills in the rest.
However, when I was young I had this one nightmare that was permanently etched into my memory, I can recall every aspect of it down to miniscule details.

I was in the backyard of a two-story clay-colored house with a large deck that ran the length of the house. The weather was overcast and gloomy, as if it was going to rain but at the time was just very chilled, and I could smell that distinct rain-scent with each inhale. I was riding one of those plastic animals on the giant springs (the ones at parks that can rock back and forth, like this: http://www.detailedplaypro.com/images/SA-04_200.JPG ). The animal was a rhinoceros. Well as I was riding it, it suddenly became real and bucked me off across the yard as it tore off of the spring underneath. I tumbled and ended up knelt over in the grass, the dew on the ground still moist and coating my shins. As I rose, the rhinoceros had circled the field and aligned itself to me, puffing hard as its breath showed in the coolness, and began to stomp the ground with its front right leg. My breath caught hold as it lowered its head and began to charge at a rapid speed. I awoke seconds before contact in an upright sitting position, panting hard.

One of those dreams I will never forget, I can still see it vividly more than 20 years later.

This one time I had a dream that I was in an airplane and shortly after take off something went wrong and the plane crashed. It was very creepy since I was leaving to study abroad the next day. So I got on the plane the next day and got this weird feeling that the dream was going to come true, so I had a mini freak out and got off the plane along with some of my friends. Wait for it…the plane actually crashed, without me and my friends on it. Over the next few weeks my friends kept dying in very weird circumstances. I think my premenition doomed us all, I feel like I’m next.

Very recently, I had one of the strangest and most memorable dreams of my life. I recall it being sort of like a set narrative in a way, but really disrupted and broken in pieces. Like a film reel that’s been mercilessly editted. Parts were set in an airish forest where I was behind the eyes of some predator racing around trees. And other parts had characters which I believe were my family caught in a twisted Grapes of Wrath-esque plot. I thought it really profound when I first woke up, but it gradually slipped away from me and I hadn’t thought about ’till I read this article just now. Nice article by the way.

@Pablo- The post itself said that they may not be faces you remember, but you may have just seen them once before. It may have been the guy who got attacked by a tiger on Animal Planet, or the waitress at Bob Evan’s from yesterday.

I’m not sure if this is true or not… but I heard that if you are having a dream where you die, then your body may actually believe you have died and your body shuts down so you really do die! It’s kind of scary, but once again, I’m not positive that it’s true.

I was walking in SOHO with my kids and we saw a large fish tank in a store window. The tank was filled with small gold fish. Hundreds of them. So we took a picture. Three days later we were having dinner with my girlfriend and she started to tell us about a weird dream she had where there was this large fish tank that was filled with hundreds of small goldfish. I looked at my daughter and she went and got the camera. My girlfriend asked, “what is this all about?”, and then looked at the picture and screamed. “Oh My God, that is my dream!!”

Weird

I once had a dream that I took a tour of Sea World with a group of elves as my tour guides. It was cool at first, i was petting dolphins and riding on the backs of whales, but then they took me to the shark tank, pushed me in, and laughed as I tried to swim to the top but could not make it.

I’ve had dreams, in which i can’t wake up.
because usually if im having a bad dream i can scream at myself in the dream and wake up.
but i would try, and instead
I would just go back into another dream in which i think i’m awake,
like literally in my room on my bed about to stand up and pee
but i’m still asleep.
i have people talking to me in the dream, telling my i’m not worth life, that no one wants me to wake up.
and i wake up, and freak the F out.
and i’ve cried many times. EH?!

I used to have orgasms in my dreams all the time as a teenager. They’re called wet dreams are pretty messy. I don’t believe I’ve ever had a dry wet dream. That’s why they’re called wet dreams. Perhaps woman dream orgasms are different though…..

Im a very experienced lucid dreamer and i can say first hand that having sex when im lucid does give me wet results.!!!!!

I love dreams, and keep a dream journal that I write in as soon as possible when I wake up. It helps with lucid dreams and also is a fun and relaxing way to wake up in the morning. My dreams are often hectic and involve some sort of adventure with a randomly generated group of people I know in real life (close friends or mere acquaintances).

A recent example: Four friends and I hike out into the desert, find a house stocked with all kinds of food and entertainment and everything you could want. The FBI shows up and infests the place with ants, hoping to attract seagulls which will then poop everywhere. The poop will then catch on fire in the desert sun and burn the house down, as the house is magical and dangerous to the government. We run away, find a lake where we catch a couple kinds of frightening and horrific lake monsters for our dinner. We return to find a couple hundred horribly injured boy scouts, but we ignore them and go inside the now-abandoned and crap-covered house, where we make chicken sandwiches. Only instead of mayo we used frostys from the wendy’s frosty machine in the kitchen. Yeah this is pretty standard, sleeping is fun

I kind of feel like the percentage of people that believe in precognitive dreams is a bit high, but that might just be from experience. I usually dream in color, but when I have a black and white dream, it’s always the same. It’s totally dark except for one spotlight where someone I know is on a stage. Everyone in the audience is mocking and laughing at them.
Within a week or two, something bad happens to that person. I’ve had this dream about two people who have died, one who lost their job, one who got very ill, and two who got in severe car accidents.
I think I was kind of quick to pick up on it because the same thing happens to my mom except she only dreams about people who are dying, and they die soon afterwards.
It’s always really scary, and I never really know if I should tell the person in the dream about it.

Ever since I was 5 years old, the majority of my dreams have involved my death. Just for fun, I’ll post the first one I can remember:

1.) The first dream I ever remember having was when I was 5. I was standing in front of an old run-down spooky building when a pale woman in a tattered white gown came floating toward me, arms outstretched and toes dragging on the ground. I ran, not really watching where I was going, and I bumped into something and fell backward. When I looked ahead of me, it was a small portly man wearing a derby cap, thick Coke-bottle glasses and a trench coat with a turtleneck sweater. I stared at him for a second before standing up. He spoke with an English accent and asked “Well, well, well! Wot ‘ave we got ‘ere?!” Then, he grabbed me by the hair and produced a spoon. I stood there in horror, unable to escape, as he pushed the spoon into my eye socket. I could feel the metal of the spoon scraping against the bone in the hollow space beneath the orb of my eye, and then I heard a ridiculous *POP* as he popped my eye out and put it in a large jar that already had several eyes in it. The pain was excruciating. Then, he repeated with the other eye, as he sang some kind of song. After that, I died and fell on the ground as he walked away, whistling. However, I knew it was only a dream, and I told myself that as I slept. So, as a result, 2 more ridiculous *POPS* occurred, and my eyes grew back, and I stood up…alive again. That was a mistake, because the English man also heard the popping and repeated the process again until I woke up.

I’m pretty sure that dream was a result of a movie I watched, that I wasn’t supposed to watch, about a man who collected eyes in a jar.

My parents and I live in Northern Michigan. We love it up here and feel this is where we belong. We have nightmares that we have to move back downstate – we moved up here in 1981. I bought a house in 2006. I dream that I have to move out of my house into a boring, dark house without windows. I feel sad in the dream! I don’t want to move!! Also I dream about discovering new rooms in my house.

I dream that when I am driving my car I get stuck in the snow. I give up and get out of my car and walk. I am afraid I’ll be late for work but I make it to work on time even though I am running in slow motion.

Comment #61 Dave – This happens to me too. I can’t remember what I dream about. But when I am dreaming I have memories of past dreams.

i remember a dream i had from the middle/end of last year and still havent worked it out. its really not that trivial but in it i was at my school which is an all girls school but in my dream it was co-ed and i was in the toilets at the sinks washing my hands and this angelic looking guy walked in and kissed me but as he did there was an old guy standing beside us yelling at him to eat me or something? the guy and me then started going out and i was showing him off to all my friends and trying to be affectionate with him but he wouldnt let me….i dont even know who the guy is!!!! freakin me out man..

i’ve once had a dream i got a blow job but i don’t have a penis; i am a female-to-male transgender though so i don’t know if that’s got anything to do about it; i’ve also had several dreams where i’m having sex as a male when i still physically am not

I remember having a dream that an A380 (or something like that) was flying right past my apartment then the plane went on fire and crashed below us…

I’ve also had a dream about my friends and boyfriedn in a car accident… I hope it never happens..

When I was young, I had a dream that I was at my cousins house, and everything was in slow motion. I walked into the bathroom, turned to see an adult Simba in the hallway, and then turned back and turned on the faucet and a green slime oozed out so I shut it off, and when I did, I got sucked up the drain where I was taken to the sewer, where I proceeded to ride an alligator through the sewer water with the rats and such. And then I woke up and hallucinated. And was too young to enjoy it.

I think I had too much cough syrup or something…

I had a pre-cognitive dream in which I dreamt that I will dream about reading a website about dreams.

I’ve seen many Precognitive dreams at age 13-15 (im 20 now)
Most were of days in school.
Those often included events that would happen, like having to fend off bullies,
my exam results and most disturbingly in some cases, the exam results of some of my class-mates.

Back in the service from which i was released a few weeks ago.
I had been having hard times wondering why the hallway in the barracks i lived at was SO familiar.
With doors that had wooden nameplates on the sides and a table in the center facing a door-entrance.

One day i figured it out when at the tables side there was a yellow military-newsposter which read in big letters:
“Private fell limb on physical stress and found dead”

I realized that back in school 6-7 years ago i’ve had been having a dream of reading that news from the same hallway which, otherwise was not filled with military looking men

My family always have the weirdest dreams- and we remember a lot more than normal people do. My dad was passing kidney stones one night and he dreamt he was in labor. The pain continued so he gave birth 6 times- and they were puppies! lol. My mom had a dream that she got caught in a time warp elevator, go up and you go forward in time and go down and you go back- but further each time so she couldn’t go back to her own time zone. I had a dream once that I married a talking cricket- no it wasn’t jimeny. It was an inch tall with a top hat, and we went through the whole ceremony and then the wedding night we got into a fight. He stormed out, and a couple minutes later I remembered it had snowed. I rushed out to find him and rescue him and after an intensive search I found him frozen. I wasn’t gonna be a widow on my wedding night so I warmed him up with 2 mcdonalds french fries- one on each side. So like I said, we have weird dreams- and this is almost every night with so many details it’s incredible!

Just thought I’d mention that reason # 2 is redundant considering reason # 3

I think it’s weird that when I have scary dreams (swimming in a river full of severed limbs, about to be mauled by a tiger, seeking someone killed and their eyeball rolling out) I am not actually scared. In the dream, I think these things are normal, so they are not “nightmares.” But one time I had a dream of being in a forest at night at there was a tree there, just this one particular tree, and I was so afraid of it I couldn’t sleep and felt paranoid all night.

Between the end of my senior year of high school and the end of my freshman year of college, I had 3 dreams about zombies. The first 2 also had floods in them. The first dream had my mom & some high school friends in it, the second one had my college friends in it, & the last one had a group of people that, in the dream, I knew they were my family, but they didn’t look like my family at all. Also, I wasn’t myself in the dream. I felt like me, but I was in the body of an actress (I recognized her, but I can’t think of her name). The earliest dream I remember is from when I was 5 or 6. In the dream, I walked into the woods across a field from our house and I stumbled upon a village. Cat-people lived in the village and their clothes and the buildings were like they were from early European colonies. The cat-people walked up to me, sniffed me, & then started chanting “One of us.” When I woke up, I thought that the dream had been real and I tried to go find the village again. I was very disappointed when I couldn’t find it again. Last night, I had a dream that I was at a concert in my high school & I started to panic because my cell phone was ringing. I finally woke up and realized that the alarm on my phone was going off. I’ve had a bunch of other weird dreams, too.

Almost total bullshit, with some vague speculations that might be true just to give it the air of credibility.

Precognition? Go f*ck yourself with your copy of “The Secret”, you pseudo-scientific twat.

Hi … some good reads. I agree with alot of people that No. 4 is in conflict -

My best remembered dreams are alien ones – I have 2 types of Aliens I met in a dream once – spaceship came to my parents garden and I got in it. .. How they looked is my secret.
In another dream I was amongst ‘Predator’ type beings – dark metallic, 10ft tall with the dreads.. . and there were many of them…. One was bemused by me cause I could fly like them… and I had to get out of there – I had a key to the garden shed behind this church yard so I was safe. … before that I was training humans to go to earth and I had got bored and went out of the compound.

I have this strange tendency when I’m sleeping to walk around and have conversations with people about my dreams while I’m still unconcious…
I once had a 30 minute conversation with two ofmy friends how i couldn’t believe that the sky was yellow and where was the moon, which culminated in my asking if the angry stars had eaten it….

One of my wierder nights….

Ok, explain to me how #6 is a ‘fact’. Is there any way to scientifically prove this? If you hold that belief, fine. But to say it’s a fact indicates that maybe the word ‘fact’ is misunderstood. Conjecture? Opinion? Wishes? Maybe. But not fact.

Also, an unrelated source of irritation.
In “4. In Our Dreams We Only See Faces, That We already Know”, please check the use of the comma. Why would there be a comma after Faces? You could probably use one after Dreams, but not after Faces.

I woke myself up with my own snoring while having a nice, comfortable dream, so that bit about ‘snorers don’t dream’ is false. The faces I see in my dreams are too beautiful for the real world-I might have contrived them, but I’ve never seen real faces like them.

I once had a somewhat precognitive dream. I dreamt of walking alone somewhere at night. I saw these buildings and the way straight let to an abbey and there were these plants along the way. I woke up and felt weird
A few years later, I visited my aunt at a place I’ve never been before. There was a street festival, and I walked with her boyfriend around as she was working. And I walked exactly the same way, saw the same plants and the abbey right in front of me just like in the dream! The difference was that I wasn’t alone. It felt very déjà vu
My aunt suggested that there some souls leave the body at night to explore the world..

my weirdest dream is from when i ws like 5 or 6 and i can still remember it: in one part, i was in a lab looking for my mum, whilst running away from an antagonist [forgot wat occupation he was, most likely mad scientist], and in da other scene i remember, i was fighting da antagonist/antagonist’s henchmen and they had me pinned on top of da helicopter, and they were torturing me by leaving gashes on my inner thigh. I seriously blame jurassic park, all da jackie chan movies, and bloody mary…….
i guess this is da 10% dat i could neva forget,
there neva really was a face, i think, i dunno, dang, how i wish for dis dream to occur again…… but i was scared outta my mind, so maybe not….
im not da 12% who dreams in black and white T~T
i really dunno wat my dream is suppose ta be symbolic of… not to mess wit mad scientists?
lol, being scared outta your mind is so a negative emotion XD, especially for a 5/6 y.o.
i hope dis doesnt happen to me in real life, but then again, i could always use an adventure XD

It’s not the strangest I’ve had, but it still makes me l.o.l. every single time I recall it, so here goes-

My roommates brother and I had been drinking at one of the on-campus pubs at the super spy/ninja academy/college we were attending and decided to part ways for the evening.. Being a super spy/ninja, I tailed him. He got a call and went to this other bar off campus that was part chic-club, part Korova Milk bar, (from A Clockwork Orange.) Staying concealed at the other end of the joint, monitoring him for my assignment, I started picking up on a nearby conversation- this popped-collar douchebag was inferring to his friends that I was some sort of homosexual and that my attire was ill conceived, (leaving out the colorful dialogue.) Being rather drunk myself, I wasn’t taking any of it and let him know we were about to fight, via a light slap to the back of the head with my titanium knuckles. As he and his chums were getting up to engage in combat, the guy stumbled a bit and I launched a kick….. only to wake up at that exact instant and kick my very sound asleep cat into the wall. I must’ve just caught her in the stomach cause she was fine, perplexed and ready for war, but unhurt. I never got back to sleep, due to the hysterical laughter that caught me every time I’d lay still and get that mental image of my familiar standing at full attention and mad as hell, but unsure where to direct her aggression.

about the snoring thing i think its true, because snoring takes place during stage 4 of sleeping, and there’s no dreaming during stage 4 we dream during rem sleep.

#14 If it’s not proven, it’s not a fact, so please don’t call it one

I believe that item 4 has merit. I can’t quantify my belief as I have NO scientific proof other than my experiences. I believe that our eye’s sees everything we look at. Our brain processes what we see but for unknown reasons we only see bits and pieces that are significant, either what we want to see or what stands out. Just think of all the images we see during the hours we are awake. Images we see on TV, internet, magazines, etc. We don’t notice everything that we see, so I believe that it is plausible that we dream of people we seen, but not realize we’ve actually seen them or where we’ve seen them.. I have sat down and meditated on specific images. Such as, where I’ve seen it and what was around the image. I’ve actually remember, if you will, items that I didn’t see the first time. So, yes I believe that it is possible that we dream of faces that we have seen, but not actually process during our waking hours. Our brain is a magnificent organ and we don’t know All of what it can accomplish. I believe that dreams are a gateway into our unconscious, and help us to understand and process how we react or relate to life around us. Please note that this my belief and that is not quantifiable….. yet.

this is a true story!!!

a few years before 9/11 I had a few recurring dreams. in those dreams i look out of my window and i see a plane crash into a high rise building next to mine. I had the dream a few times and told friends about it, it never happened again after 9/11 (I am in NYC btw).

I do not see in focus. In my life I think I have had maybe 4 dreams that were clear. Ive been meaining to ask other people that wear glasses if they dream the same as I do .

Also, I wear my glasses constantly, unless Im sleeping or in the shower so I dont understand why my dreams always look like Im walking around without my glasses.

Also, characters in my dreams remember eachother.

I had a dream months ago that I was living with the Botwins (On weeds) and Silas and I hooked up.
A few weeks ago I had a dream that Heath Ledger was my boyfriend and we went to visit the Botwins and SIlas was jealous of Heath lol He pulled my aside and asked what happened to him and me lol.

Does anyone else have dreams like this?

My snoring becomes incorporated into my dreams.

When I was younger, about 5 or 6, I had a very strange dream. My whole family and I were in a library which looked exactly like the library that was in the town I was living in at the time. We were being chased by a large fuzzy orange monster. (if you’ve seen the weight watchers commercial with the hunger monster, It looked a lot like that only larger) Well the monster chased us around much like in a scooby doo chase sequince. Finally I ran and hid under a couch in the library and the watched as the monster ripped each of my family member apart and ate them. It was very graphic.
To this day I do not know why I remembered the dream in full detail or why I remembered it all these years…..

Pablo. there really is no such things as ghosts, so you have nothing to worry about, it even says it right in the Bible, whats dead is dead and cannot come back. there is however two explainations for the things we see, the most common being whats reffered to as playback, everything holds energy, so we may see that energy reoccur. the other is something i cannot say, but it is proven. rest easy it was probably the paralysis spoken of before, it even said it can be triggered while our brains are waking.

Thank you for the wonderful post! I happen recurring dreams, dreams are remembered for a long time. I often have dreams and I like it a lot!

I always have the most bizarre dreams. o.o But somehow each sequence ties together and makes sense. The other day I had an exceptionally odd one. It involved a virus taking over the human race. This virus does not kill, it shrinks the victim to microscopic size. xD As soon as I woke up I wrote down what I remembered. (Lease excuse the horrid writing, I was still half asleep when I write.)

what did my dream about the lobsters exploding with rainbow guts symbolize?

I snore and have many dreams… one in which i was a tiger and actually pounced like one in my bed freaking out the GF. True story

I used to consistently have dreams of zombie apocalypse or similar end-of-the-world scenarios where civilization had failed and the last remnants of humanity fought for survival. I was always the hero, killing zombies and leading people from danger. I study psychology in my spare time and used this information to lead my life. At the time of these dreams I was a high school dropout who couldn’t find a job and did lots of drugs.

Now I’m a network engineer.

Everyday I relish the fact that me, a high school dropout, is now an engineer. I attribute it to my dreams, my philosophical view of life, and my high school psychology teacher, who got me interested in learning the ways of the mind.

I will have to admit, though, that I do believe that some of the more ‘mind-freeing’ drugs had a lot to do with my current success. Not all of the things that society labels as evil IS evil. Expand your mind, but learn the lessons that the vision teaches you.

Ok I was looking for answers in all the wrong places.

I remember being abruptly woken up while I was completely asleep. (I thought something was in my room, I was absolutely terrified) I tried to get up but I felt a heavy pressure in my lower back and I was completely paralyzed!! I couldn’t scream, couldn’t move anything. Next thing I knew it was morning. I never spoke to anyone about this in fear of being judged or thought of a weirdo.

Thank you number 10. (If in fact it’s true, it’ll take my number 1 reason why this paralysis overcame me. It definitely seems a little more likely than aliens coming into my room.)

I’m going to look into this more!! Great Stumble! Great Post!

I have had de ja vu..from dreams

Anyway..my dreams seem to be morbid..

1) I dreamt that there were 3 dead bodies in my bathtub…my parents decided to hang them up on the washing clothing line….and then my mum sprinkled salt on them?!!….haha i have no idea..why the salt..

2) I dreamt that half of me was on fire and no matter what i did or anyone did, i couldn’t put myself out..and then I woke up.

Okay, I think that the reason 4 can be true is think about how many people you see in a day at work or school or on the street some you only see for a split second but your brain may store that information away. SO you may not remember them but them but they are there…

I have precognitive daydreams and they always have to do with music. I’ll be listening to the radio or itunes or pandora or something and I’ll think of a song I want to hear and it will come on next. That actually happens usually at least twice a day. I’ve become accustomed to it but it never works when I try to make it work.

I broke my toe in my sleep one time. I dreamed I was kicking this really mean guy (right where it counts), I pulled my leg back as far as i could and kicked as hard as I could. I happened to kick what happened to be a stud in my wall. It was a really good dream, until i woke up in agony. Perhaps it was because I was hungover?

I remember my favorite recent dream involving making up with an ex, going to a party with him, losing track of him, wandering down a hallway to a room that’s an aquarium because aparrently the house was built partially underwater, and then water started flooding in, so i opened the door only to realize the room was flooding out into the hall. And people were screaming and there was blood everywhere, so we all run around trying to find out what’s happened only to find out people at the party had been murdered. (I know this sounds morbid but i promise it really is a funny dream). So first we think it’s this creepy girl who keeps running through the walls, but we find out it’s actually not her at all, but rather her CAT that’s killing everyone. But the best part about this is that her cat was made out of yarn. To this day I have no idea what the significance of that dream is.

Where’s your proof for these “facts”?

To those of you who have experienced the strange sensation where you were paralyzed, that’s called sleep paralysis. Sometimes it even happens to people who aren’t fully asleep (like me), but just trying to rest. Sometimes, but usually if you’re unaware of what it is and the room is dark, it can even cause hallucinations as the dreaming part of your brain attempts to make sense of your paralysis. This also deals with incorporation, but your inability to move is being incorporated into your altered perception of reality.

Look up sleep paralysis on wikipedia for a wealth of interesting information. People typically used to hallucinate of old women, ghosts, and monsters, holding them down, muffling their cries. The first time I had this experienced, I hallucinated that an evil version of my friend was sitting on my chest, strangling me, and that something had pierced my back. I literally thought I was dying.

After I figured out what it was, the hallucinations ceased entirely, and the paralysis happens less and less.

And, although I have had a dream that could qualify as precognitive, I have to say that dreams like that are purely coincidental. There is NO reason to believe humans have any capacity for predicting the future at all.

The strangest thing about my dreams is that they all seem to happen in geographic locations that are adjacent to each other…like i could draw a map of my dreamscape in its entirety. I’m very curious what this kind of thing means.

I had a dream I was eating a giant marshmallow-and when I woke up my pillow was gone.

I have recently been having a reoccurring theme in my dreams that my legs don’t work or are weak. Not like I’m in a wheel chair but usually in the beginning of the dream my legs will be fine but the all of a sudden they’ll go limp and ill struggle to stand and walk.

I tend to remember most of my dreams ,somtimes in the course of the day,.
A lot of the time I dream of running/escaping people,creatures, things i cant see. I still dream of sitting for college/school exams and going totally blank though I have been good at studies and it 15 yrs since i got my degree. I dream of reading books I haven’t read before or even heard of. months later at the bookshop I see a title and its dejavu as I remember paragraphs or pages. Even events local and global that happen years later mainly to do with inventions or some architectural work like I dreamt of travelling in an overhead train and by sea link in Bombay to and from particular localities 16yrs ago . The sealink came up only last year and planning on the train system has just started . This was way before internet info bombardment . I could go on ,sometimes I have such terrifying dreams I hate going back to sleep. I often dream of missing a bus/train/plane and everyone gets in and Iam all alone or if I get in there is a breakdown and Iiam stuck in the middle of no where. Guess I have written too much .

@Pablo I belive they would be looking at the parts of the brains that are used during dreaming, how much memory related parts light up (A LOT) compared to how much the areas assosiated with creativity light up (not so much)

cool site and facts

My Identical twin sister and I (though we are at college apart) have always had many of the same dreams. It was very interesting to hear my mother telling me my own dream for the first time when I was 8. My twin, Natalie had told her about it, and my mom told me. We’ve had the same recurring dream of a man chasing my sister, mother and me many times.

Lately I have been having really intense and vivid dreams about zombies. Most of them are people i already know. They try to eat me… Whats really bizarre is that my roommates(some of them zombies in my dream) have also had dreams about zombies. Needless to say I have been preparing for the zombie apocalypse.

I have those precognatiove dreams ALL THE TIME! sometimes it’s super freaky, once it lasted for close to twenty minutes. everything i was seeing had happened before, exactly as it was happening, in a dream i had

I always seem to come up with my best artistic ideas when I’m falling asleep or in dreams. It’s usually when I’m halfway between sleep and being awake that these ideas just start to come to me. Very interesting stuff, these dreams. I hope one day we can record our dreams or something.

I once dreamed that whatever I peed on got bigger. I ended up with a huge hand.

uhhh
this sort of scares but
i swear 9/10 i had a dream a plane crashed into a building, i ran around trying to save people
sadly 9 11 happened next day, it was really weird, so i agree with 13.

on a lighter note
i had a cool dream me and my class were at a beach and decided to swim off to an island. in the island we found a grocery store. we went inside to try and figure out what the hell it was doing on this island, inside we found angree natives that took some of my classmates captive. we ra n back to the mainland and realized that we had to go back to the island to save my classmates. so we mounted up on some dragons and flew there. we entered the store and inside there were no natives but instead a man in a chicken suit playing guitar hero, i said hey man i love that game and we began to play together

I know this may sound creepy, but I harm people in my dreams, sometimes kill them. Now, let me justify this by saying in those dreams, it’s because said people are trying to hurt my family and I am merely trying to protect them, but they are so vivid I often wake up crying from them.

Those Are Some Interesting Stories..
So Ever Since I Was A Littile Girl I Have Had This Reoccuring Dream…. In A House That I Have Never Seen Before, In My Dream My Grandmother Lived In This House.. The House Was Surrounded By All These Beautiful Different Types Of Flowers.. And When You Walk Into This House Theres This Vague Smell.. Sometimes When Im Around My Grandmother That Scent Will Fill The Air.. I Have No Idea What Scent It Is But It Seems Like It Should Be Something I Should Instantly Remember.. And When The Air Fills With This Smell It Brings Back These Really Weird Memories.. And These Memories Take Me Back Ta Way Back When, When I Was Little And I Always Helped Around My Grandmothers House.. Sometimes In The Very Beginning Of This Odd Dream Its As If Im Tracing A Long Narrow Drive Way With My Eyes.. I Have Asked My Grandmother Several Times If She Has Any Idea As To Why I’m Having This Reoccuring Dream And She Told Me That My Mother Had Once Had A Dream Similar To Mine When She Was A Little Girl.. So I Went To My Mother And Asked Her About Her Dream And Almost Everything She Told Me Was EXACTLY Like Mine.. So Still To This Day I Have Yet To Reveal The Meaning Of This Dream….

I had a really wierd experience when i was young.
i was having this dream that i was being chased by something and i ran out the front door of my house and down the street, the monster or whatever (i cant remember) kept chasing me and i couldn’t get away. i ran through a park down the street from my house, and climbed on top of this big fence post. some dogs then started barking from a house close by, which scared the monster away. i then sprinted home about a block and a half.

the dream was extreamly realistic and the wierdest thing was when i woke up the next mornig there was Grass Clippings in my bed. i still dont know if i did everything i dreamt but i used to sleep walk, when i was a kid

i had a dream when i was 17 years old about a black raven in a cage. the cage opened and the raven flew out, free.
my dad died after that dream, he was in a wheelchair. i do believe dreams can be symbolic and i think my dad was the raven, his wheelchair the cage.

There is a way how to increase the dream recall. Have the dictaphone or something to write. And when you wake up, lay in a bad for some time and in dreamy state try to catch what you remember and ask questions like “and the happened what?” I saw something and then?” In this way you can increase the recall up to 100%

I sometimes do things in my sleep that are related to my dreams. My roommate tells me I speak French in my sleep on occasion, and I once sat up and tried to sing (about a jingle I had made up to sell turnips in order to ransom back a hippopotamus I had lost from my tour group in Dallas). Only a few nights ago, I dreamed that I was fighting with my younger brother, and it was very important that I punch his foot (don’t ask me why his foot. I just go with it.). I vaguely remember punching the wall, and when I woke up the next morning, I discovered a slice across the back of my knuckles.

Thanks for this thing , it’s interesting

I was just scamming the internet this morning, and I came across these facts and I thought it was weird because last night I had a dream this kid came up to me in a hurry, and gave me 220 dollars saying take this, if you don’t I’m going to overdose I know it. Implying if he would have kept the money he would have bought herion with it and overdosed on it. I know this kid in real life, and I really always wonder what my dreams mean. I have so many weird acurances, and deja vu situations that it really trips me out sometimes.
Does anyone know a dream interpertation website I could go to?

I’m “iffy”on the whole Paralysis thing… I have what are called Waking Dreams where I am asleep and dreaming, get out of bed and wander around while dreaming all the while. I am technically asleep but I see my dream and reality co-mingling and sometimes I know I am dreaming and am able to get myself back into bed but other times I wake up in other rooms with only dreams of going out for a walk.

The snoring thing isnt true. I snore like freight train. Anytime im asleep. And anytime I sleep I have a dream. Without fail. That fact is ludicrous

I love dreaming that I’m flying because it felt real… Sometimes I can transport from one place to another. Isn’t that cool?

The majority of my dreams – I’d say at least 80% – seem to be set in my childhood home, the house I grew up in. Even when it doesn’t exactly resemble the house in layout or design it still “feels” like my childhood home. Strange.

How could anyone know how much of a dream is forgotten? It might be an educated guess, based on some brain scan tests or something, but how on earth could anyone prove that somebody forgot whatever percentage of a dream? Who is recording this dream from outside of the sleeping person’s head, and by what sci-fi mechanism, and then comparing that to what the subject can remember when they wake up?

my girfriend is being chased by chocolate pudding in her dreams

i obviously dream of faces i have never seen because i have dreamed of a person whose face was constantly different drifting in and out of familiarity.. there were others that were wrong like the snoring thing.. ive woken myself from a dream while still snoring

On September 11th, 2001 I woke from a dream in which I was surrounded by flames, and people running around me on fire. I was thinking, “Why would America set me on fire?” I felt the floor buckle and drop, and heard three loud booms. The last boom woke me up. I went out to the front room and told my roommate and his girlfriend about the dream. They have just woken up, and my roommate told me he’d had a dream about fire too. And his girlfriend said she had a dream about a missile flying by and hitting a building, blowing up one side. A half hour later the neighbor upstairs told us about the WTC event. We were all a bit weirded out by it. We were in a quiet area of Montana and had no T.V.. so there was no external influence. I know this is a big can of worms, but I’ve known since that moment that the only terrorists that day were the world leaders. I’ve learned since then that a lot of people had similar dreams that day.

Dreaming of water is meant to symbolise your emotions. If your drowning then your failing to deal with your environment, if you are surfing you are riding your emotions with ease and enjoying yourself. Interestingly, since I heard this I dream of water more and there is a direct link between my interaction with it and what is going on in my ‘real’ life.

I didn’t read anywhere near all the comments here, but there are some great ones. I remember a few times as a kid not making it to the bathroom to pee because I was dreaming I was already in the bathroom. As someone said up above, there have been some close calls since, but now that I can recognize having to pee in a dream as really meaning I really have to go, I make it to the bathroom… lol.

When I was 6 or so, I had the first nightmare I can really remember having, and I still remember it now. Sort of. I dreamed that this monster was chasing me, so I ran to my Mom. She was in her room folding laundry on the bed. I begged her to help me, but she just laughed and said she was busy and kept folding clothes. I got into her bed, but the monster went up under the blankets at the foot of the bed and chewed my foot off. I don’t remember what happened after that but I was pretty freaked out over it when I woke up.

You missed one:
You cannot read in your dreams !!

I’ve has some very strange dreams lately. Has anyone ever had two or three dreams in a row on different nights that have the same people in them? It is like I am living an entirely different life with these people. I have never had this happen before but i usually don’t remember two or three days of dreams in a row either so maybe all our dreams are connected but we just don’t remember enough of them to know. Or maybe the real thrill is we are living more than one life at a time lol.

Has anyone had a lucid dream? This usually happens just before you wake up in the morning. All of the sudden a part of your brain realizes you are dreaming and it is like being a voyeur to your dream lol. Sometimes you can change what is going on in the dream. fun but shocking when it happens.

Sometimes I dream that I am swimming through the air… similar to flying, but to move around and navigate it’s like being in resistance free water. Once I flew over pre-Vesuvius Pompeii.

Comes from years of competitive swimming I’m sure, but I friggin love those dreams.

you can also dream in different languages too if you’re multilingual

I LOVE TO DREAM ACTUALLY WITH MY BELOVED ONE…….
U ALSO DREAM BECOZ DREAMS CAN GIVE U HAPPY EXPERIENCE AND RELAX……..

I had a dream the other night that I was the best basketball player in Arizona. Then one day, I was kidnapped by Walmart and was being held hostage in one of the stores. The only way to escape was to distract the guards by singing a song while playing the piano. The singing turned into a metal fest with Jack Black and we sang some mighty great tunes with words that didn’t even exist. I woke up right when we finished our song fest. Great dream.

when i was a kid i had a dream about this very article.

I dream every night and I always remember in detail what I was dreaming. Sometimes I think I could right a book or a script for a movie if I would only take notes every morning when the dreams are fresh in mind. My dreams are so detailed that I could draw the places I dream about. Often I dream about places, countries, cities that I have lived in and in my dreams I am so happy in that place that I wake up with anxiety wondering why I ever left that place. After a couple of minutes I remember that it wasn’t all that great living in that particular place so it seems I glorify memories and experiences. However, most of my dreams are nightmares and makes me feel anxious when I wake up. My most common nightmare is that I lose my teeth; that they are chipped, bleeding and crushed. I also dream that I am in really bad fights with my mum and call her all sorts of names that I would never tell her to her face. My dreams are as most vivid the hours just before waking up (or at least I think so). I have always been a vivid dreamer since I was a child and in my young years my parents told me that I sometimes confused my dreams with reality. My childhood dreams would often put me in the place of an animal such as a wolf being persecuted and shot by hunters or a deer having its throat cut. This made me develop a strong empathy for animals which later made me an animals right activist as an adult.

I mostly have very unpleasant dreams, but occasionally I have a lovely dream that has been recurring since childhood. I don’t know exactly how to explain it, except that in the dream, I discover suddenly that I can slide down staircases without walking on the steps, as if I’m skiing. It’s a very sensuously pleasant sensation, and it makes me feel very competent and special. I’ve had the dream many, many times and look forward to having it again some night.

I use to have a dream (over and over) that my teeth would fall out. I could be brushing, talking, walking or playing the piano. I quit haveing them when I reached 40 or so. Dream on all!

@ Rich DeMataeo

You probably woke up during REM sleep. If you do, you can still be paralyzed and will see things, often terrifying. And some people even see strange creatures or demons sitting on their chests making it difficult to breathe. People usually wake up during REM sleep when they are under a lot of stress. I did one time. It was very scary. I kept seeing this weird thing move around my room and I was aware of everything but I couldn’t move or speak. It can last anywhere from a few seconds to minutes. Pretty scary stuff.

I’ve had dreams with faces I do no recognize and sometimes people dont have faces at all

reply #7…you did experience body paralysis..i have many times and everytime was accompianed by an evil presence in the room,youre wide awake and your brain still hs your motor functions turned off so moving isn’t possible..i found it scary yet enjoyable,but thata me

I had a dream that I was in a plane crash. The plan landed in a river and you could see land very close on both sides and everyone that was on the flight was okay. Then in real life, a week later flight 1549 landed in the Hudson.

my dreams usually consist of me trying to run away from someone, but my legs won’t take me any faster than a crawl. Also, if I try to scream, it comes out as a whisper…interesting

I talk so loud in my sleep that I wake myself up and sometimes catch myself finishing my sentences. It’s so weird. I think I’m mental. :/

I love dreams and find the whole thing fascinating. There have been many occasions where I have experienced something in a dream, eg. skydiving, hangliding, dying, where I absolutely know that what I dreamed is exactly how it would be so in essence I have done it. I have heard that you cannot die in you dreams buy I did once and I remember it vividly. I was under the sea, my lungs were fighting to inhale but my mind was saying ‘no! you can’t do it!’ all the time I was fighting it was horrible. Eventually I inhaled the water and the life ebbed away from me, but as it did I was still a little consious. My body totally relaxed moving with the current, I would go as far as to say I became the sea. It was actually really beautiful and peaceful but only when I let go.
About point 13 – I have also many times dreamed a situation, often a quite unique situation and it has happened. I have spoken about this with many people about this and a lot of people have had the same thing. Maybe it is info from a higher power? Not the angry gray bearded God though, he’s man made! For more info on dreams go to a website called Documentary Heaven, there is a fascinating docu on there, happy dreaming folks. Peace.

I once dreamt that I was in an Adam Sandler movie. He was determined to join the army but his mom (the same mom from the Water Boy) didn’t want him to get hurt so she joined as well and became his sergeant. Adam Sandler ended up stuck behind enemy lines so he shrunk himself and dressed up as a banana and tried to sneak across in a banana vendor’s cart. It worked but then someone tried to eat him. He was screaming and waving his little banana peel arms, “Don’t eat me! I’m not a banana!” I woke up laughing.

I once dreamed I had insomnia
most ironic dream ever

Most of thse “Facts” have mounds of study behibnd them, and I can only refute a couple of them. The snoring one is nonesense. Snoring happens when the muscles in your throat relax and block or obstruct the air passage (Overweight people tend to snore more often because they have more flesh and less toned muscles in the neck and throat area). It is purely physiological, not psychological. The only other on is the Precognitive/ Deja Vu point. While I believe in precognition to a point, the scientific theory with the most evidence pertaining to Deja Vu has nothing to do with future, but rather a cerebral mistake. The best way to explain it is that our brain is like a PC, with different storage files for different information. Instead of saving our experience to the “happening now” folder, our brain saves it to the “already happened/memory folder.” This is what leaves us with the feeling that its already happened.

I dreamt I was riding in the car with my family, I was sitting on the right side of the car in the back seat. The windows were open. I was looking out the window and I saw a dove flying. I wanted that dove. It flew through the window and I caught it. As it struggled, its right wing came off. I felt horrible. I felt like I didn’t deserve that dove and I should let it go. So, I gave it a chance to leave and fly out the window but it stayed with me. Its wing that fell off turned black. I nurtured the dove, it loved me. I remember it looking back at me and loving me. One day, I felt that I should let it go, like it wanted to leave. So I let it fly out the window and in its mid-flight, it grew another wing but this wing, was a large bat wing. It was black and strong. It looked so strange, the pure white dove with a black bat wing. Soon after we were about to leave, I saw the dove on the ground. It changed into a full bat, black as night with large ears. I didn’t know what to make of it. It almost frightened me.

I am a lucid dreamer. That means every night i dream i dream extremely vividly and most of the time a know i am dreaming. This has allowed me to remember virtually every aspect of my dreams and i have started to study my dreams. Most of these points are valid except a few. “4. In Our Dreams We Only See Faces, That We already Know” I complete disagree with this because i have scene many many faces in detail that i do not recall ever seeing. I had one dream recently where a woman looked right into my face and i did not recognize her face at all. “14. If you are snoring, then you cannot be dreaming.” I can wholeheartedly tell you this is false. I dream every night multiple times a night and i remember them, i also snore every single night too. If you have ever wondered why most people cannot remember they are dreaming it is because when you are quickly or shockingly woken up you do not remember your dreams. Most people are woken up by alarm clock and when this happens the person is most of the time jolted to awareness. When this happens your mind doesn’t have time to reflect on the dream and is immediately focusing on something else. When you wake up on your own terms is when people are able to remember their dreams because the mind slowly comes into consciousness and the transition is smoother allowing you to remember your dream.

My mother passed away when I was 18. My parents were separated and my older brother was in the service. For several months before she died, I had reoccuring dreams of what my 2 brothers, my sister and myself would do if my mom wasn’t around. I had it all planned out and when she died, followed what my dreams had told me. I am now 60 years old and remember the dreams as if they happened yesterday.

I get the paralyzing dreams all the time. I found the best thing to do is just relax. Seems the more you fight it, the harder it is to come out of it.

In most of my dreams, i dont picture faces, but i know who the people are.. they’re mostly just blurs

I am on prozac and have the most vivid dreams ever imagined. Every night is a different dream and most of the time I am interacting in my sleep with my dream. what I mean is that if I was dunking a basketball, I would lunge my arm from one side of the bed to the other. (hitting my wife at the same time). I actually look forward to falling asleep and dreaming. when I wake up I remember most of the dreams and as the day goes on, it becomes faint. I believe my intake of prozac has alot to do with my dreams.

with all due respect, the truth is, nobody actually knows for sure what dreaming is all about; sure, there are lots of theories but that’s all they are, theories. so this post should really read, “15 interesting theories about dreams”…..but what do i know?

*scott 217: yes i’ve had exactly that dream. it was like i was forcefully trying to wake up, but this huge weight upon my chest was trying to stop me; i remember letting out a frightened moan in my sleep, yet somehow hearing it on the waking plane. i don’t mind admitting it scared the bejesus out of me. but i don’t know why. srange stuff.

mine are eerily realistic and gritty.occasionally i’ll have a pleasant dream here and there but the majority of the time my dreams are nightmarish and apocalyptic in nature (zombies, the end of the world, illness, catastrophes of many sorts) what’s odd is that i can’t figure out what would influence these dreams, what i do during the day is quite routine and normal, mundane even (go to work, workout, make dinner, chat with friends) and if i watch tv before falling asleep it’s quite tame, like the travel channel or the weather channel. what i hate most about my dreams is the fact that they are so lucid and vivid. if i get stabbed, attacked, or in some accident, i can feel everything (the pain is intense and so real, it’s almost ridiculous how intense it is) what’s odd is i remember everything after i wake up, and when i do wake up i have aches and bruises like i’ve been moving round and running in real life and not just in the dream. i live with a few people who have never seen me sleep walk so that’s been ruled out.

Good post. I have 2 awesome ones!! When I was pregnant and the hormones-a-reelin’…..
I dreamt that Dave Coulier (from full house) stole my newborn baby girl and named her “Perfume”

Also dreamt that I had a giant tattoo of a pack of hotdog buns on my back and my husband sported a package of wieners.

I urge all expectant mothers to keep a journal by the bed!!! This is good stuff!!!

I dream a lot more than most people that I have talked to. I also talk in my sleep which helps me remember my dreams because I sort of wake up when Im talking then fall right back into the same dream. I have dreams with recurring themes but not the same dream. For example a lot of my dreams I am driving in a car and the road in front of me suddenly has a large sink hole that I have to maneuver around. I also dream a lot of tidal waves coming towards me or tornadoes passing by my window as i look out.

I’ve had a reoccuring dream about driving down a dark road with only the headlights beaming on the road…I’m starting to fall asleep at the wheel and start to swerve…then I see a baby in a diaper ( about 18 months old) and I get scared and try not to hit it and I try to center my car so that it straddles the baby…and right before I get to the baby it turns around as I’m about to run over it and I wake up…EVERY TIME!!!

I love the art work! I am a lucid dreamer and I loved the tips, too. I also make very dreamy art work

My dreams are like a second life. I have a job, an apartment, a cat. I work, go out with friends. I have a boyfriend, we’re in our 20s. These run like a soap opera. Sometimes the story-line is interesting enough that I want to get back to dreaming quickly. Dream-sex is fabulous. Dream hauntings are very frightening. There is such detail in my surroundings. And yet none of the people are anyone I know…even I am not familiar to myself.

IIn this life I’m 59, retired, disabled, married for 28 years and have dogs. Go figure.

Did anyone else notice that it went from saying 15 facts in the title, to 13 facts in the introduction, to having 15 “facts”? But then they said that one “fact” hasn’t been proven as a fact. But anyway, to those of you saying that it isn’t true that your mind uses people you’ve seen, how do you know? Do you remember every face of every person you pass on the street? I’ve found that if I don’t actually know something in real life, I don’t know it in my dreams. I’m inclined to believe it.

@Lelly thank you so much for noticing! shame on me

When I dream and see a room, if I am consciousness to know that I am turning over and then indeed do turn over I then return to my dream but I am on the OTHER side of the room. Weird huh?

i am a female and i do not have many orgasms during sex, yet i have full orgasms while sleeping about 5 times a week. it’s quite interesting.

Just wondering can anyone actually eat things in their dreams? I wake up everytime something touches my lips in my dreams.

I had a dream last night that i put my friends mom’s chihuahua in a skillet trying to cook it and eat it. Then it jumped out and its back legs were burnt and shriveled to a crisp then i was trying to decide if i should just kill it or take it to the vet……like wtf????? I woke up feeling all weird. Wonder what that shit symbolizes.

Number four isn’t always right. I often dream of people I’ve never met.

I love lucid dreaming, it’s a real good high. I always have reoccurring dreams too, with the same or similar environment, and I’m always running, or trying to hide, and there’s always the main character, a bear. I consciously associate bears with fear, so i’m really intrigued about dreams in general, but even more so with dream interpretation. I also thought it was really interesting that we all use characters or people that we’ve seen, ‘cuz I’ve had some damn hot dreams with damn hot people. lol, now I want to meet them…again. I’ve also looked into controlling your dreams, its not very easy for me, but I’ve heard some people who can. That would be awesome, ‘cuz i’m naturally artistic, just think what my mind could create with infinite possibilities.

I think dreams can tell you about yourself. How your really feeling.
Dreams are HUGLEY symbolic and if you look into the symbols a whole other meaning can be found.
My dreams are often about characters in games, books or movies because that’s where my interests lie.
Because I get so attached and involved to the plot and character I often dream of being involved somewhere.
If I’m hoping for a certain person to ask me out Ill dream of our marriage or first date, if I want to go somewhere I will often dream of living there.
Also a lot of the time I dream of places I’ve been but in my dreams they will be called somewhere else.
For example I was once dreaming about Rome but we were Calling it Glasgow. In my dream we truly believed that it was out home town but it was in fact Rome.
I also speak in my dreams. I have conversations with people I miss of have seen regularly.
I think dreams are absolutely fascinating.

Here is an interesting web site in which you can analyse your dreams: http://www.dreamdoctor.com/
You simply type in your dream, the site scans your text for symbols and pick up on the most common ones and explains them to you.

I have orgasms in my sleep often. Except that it’s not just in my dream, it actually happens and I moan and yell. I love it

Back in high schoo, I once dreamt that my super conservative mother made cookies for Marilyn Manson, who was our neighbor. She just kept saying “he’s such a nice boy.”

seriously, this blog is awe-inspiring . I think im gonna stick around and read about 9 more of your posts. Peace out

i have a question… how many of us dream in the 3rd person and how many in the 1st person…

I once had a dream where i was being chased by 4 wolves in a forest with a full moon, i hid under a big uprooted tree and woke up under my bed. Pretty weird.

When I was younger I had reoccurring dreams, in which I would swear and purposefully antagonize Jesus until he started chasing after me in anger. Then when he had almost caught up, I would leap into the air and fly/hover 8ft above his head, while continuing to egg him on. I had that dream like 5 or 6 times, so strange.

i always post comments on websites when im asleep….

Where are these facts coming from? I’d like to see some sources. I’m putting together a presentation on dreams. Would be interested to see some more info…

When I was younger (up through grade school) I would have the same nightmare every night my mother would tell me “Good night sleep tight don’t let the bed bugs bite” if she said “good night sleep tight” I was fine but if she added the bit about the bed bugs I would have this nightmare.

I would be walking down a city street with all these nice houses and in the center of the block was this on old delapidated house, windows boarded up, screen door twisted and handing by one hinge, the front door had a small glass pane in it which was broken and I would go up to the front door when this hideous old lady’s face would appear in the broken glass, emerge from it, and chase me down the block, not a full bodied woman, just her head which was about the same size as I was.

I don’t know what it was about bed bugs, but it got to a point where I would freak out if my mom said the phrase because I knew it meant I’d have the dream. I finally managed to get her use to not saying it and I managed to go years without the nightmare before having it one last time. Now thankfully the saying doesn’t trigger the dream, but I still remember it quite vividly.

Scott, #10 is very common, there is even lore about it. It was once believed that an old hag (witch) was the cause. There are cases where in this state people see someone sitting on there chest and it was once believed that a witch would sit on her victims chest to kill them/curse them/etc. It is also one of the sources for the myth of the succubi (that and wet dreams)

I just had a dream last night where I had died.
And I was a ghost and the guy I liked was the only one who could see me.
And he helped me fix all the wrongs in my life and I finally admitted that I liked him.
Then I was full of resolve and I faded away.
Then I woke up.

..it was kinda like a movie or something

I would like to add, that I have more than once died in a dream, and fallen from a great height and hit ground. It happens and you do not die in your sleep from it.

If anyone wants to know how to be a lucid dreamer (control their dreams) then see an old article I wrote on it once: http://hubpages.com/hub/How-to-Control-Your-Dreams

I have a few notable dreams to share:

Since I was little the scariest nightmare I remember having is when I was around 1st grade.

I was walking through this street with walls covered in sesame street style graffitti or something of that nature, and my mom and I were just strolling along looking at it all. At the end of the road there was a grassy field where I saw a brown figure sitting on a rock. As I walk up to it, a very cartoonish, humanly characteristic bear turns around and shoots me with a shot gun point blank. I was terrified and ran into my dad’s bed for the night. xD

As for lucid dreams, I only have had a few of them that I really remember permanently, and the first one went like this:

I was practicing the ability to fly throughout the dream and learned quite fast. I ended up flying around as fast as Iron Man in the sky and it was the most fun I’d ever had in a dream! Also, I had acquired the power to slow down time, and I began to practice that as well. I felt like after that I would know exactly how it would feel to slow time in real life, it was amazing.

I had another dream where I was either a vampire from the start, or became one, but it wasn’t like a vampire at all. We had the ability to fly and move through anything physical. I was really good at both skills and it took lots of focus and ‘belief’ that you could do it to succeed. Eventually in the dream I began to doubt that I was special and could only lift off the ground and glide back down soon after. There was an opposing faction of undead zombies who decided to target me for whatever reason. They weren’t like a zombie in a movie, morely just greyed people that were in an organization. I kept trying to escape their clutches but my flying powers were decreasing and I could no longer move through walls or anything, it was terrifying as they grabbed for me. I think towards the end there was a renegade zombie who was helping me, but I was sucked out of the plot as I woke up.

As for reoccuring dreams, I’ve only had that happen once.
Regarding ‘made up’ people, I feel that I have invented countless people, creatures, and settings that aren’t true to reality. Of course all in various circumstances and situations.

I do have deja vu on a pretty regular basis, and different results come to pass. Sometimes I remember a sequence of dialogue people say right as it triggers, also connected with the surroundings at the time. Either they say what I predicted, do what I predicted, or I have a memory of the situation turning out completely differently! Usually in a more negative manner. And lastly, sometimes it is a mixture of going as predicted, with the rest a false or inaccurate turn out. It worries me when it’s a bad turn out, but doesn’t always feel like I’ve dreamt it. Just that I feel like I am replaying my life story over and over again with numerous turn outs. o_O;

Comment: I love reading all these dream stories and am always open to talk about the subject of dreams and lucid dreams. My email is tylerscribble@gmail

Eventually I’d like to maybe create drawings or paintings based on stories I hear or read from strangers regarding their dreams. Seems like an awfully fun idea to me. xD

the most vivd dream i had (and it reoccurs) is that at the end of the school year i got great grades and jumped into a harbor. One boat picked me up and thought i was a convict trying to escape (it was boat of prisoners). They took me to a run down jail (which i can describe completly in detail because i drew it when i wke up). They put me in a room with my friends. When my friends left for good behavior, i was alone.
When i was let free i had to take a farry home. When i was on the boat there was a black and white spoted fish. It was about 10ft long and 8ft wide, it had yellow eyes, and kept bumping the boat. When we got near the dock, the boat wouldnt stop so me and 2 little boys i was trying to rescue, had to jump. I made it to the dock, but the boys staid on and i told them to jump anyway and swim to the dock. When they made it the fish was on our tails. The dock had sunken parts that the fish could grab us from. the boys eventually slipped but they didnt get eaten because the fish was after me.
As usual, i have no idea how it ended. My dreams never really end, and re occur alot.
I am afraid of waves, but not water itself. Although i do fear how deep it is, and what is at the bottom.
Im 15, so if u wanna analyze this for me i would really apreciate it. Dream analyzation and Pyschology is what i want to do for my life. Im really passionate about it. So tell me what you think!
Thanks!

Some people think there is no artificial light in dreams. I know I can never switch on a light in a dream, and I’ve tried countless times. What’s your experience ?

very nice, thank you for posting all informations, is interesting how people dreaming and what they are dreaming. Dream it’s little world where you fell like you truly live. We spent 20 years sleeping (1/3 of our life).

i wonder about precogniive dreams with unknown faces that we meet after dreaming… seems like deja vu but it’s a little different. And another thing, about REM. i used to experience it but a several time i heard lie a walking cat on my bad (i have no cat). i could even feel how the bed is moving but i couldn’t see him because i couldn’t move. and when he started getting closer i tried to make movement with my head until i totally wake up and the was no cat anywhere…

I can control my dreams. I can realize I am *dreaming* and make them go the way I want too. Doesn’t happen all the time but when it does it’s awesome.

IThat fact is not true I ogasm in my greams all the time

Once i had a dream that polar bears attacked my house and tried to eat me, me and my parents ran into the lounge room and hit behind the sofa with swords fighing off the polar bears. Once we killed them all (abit gorey i know:P) i went outside and one jumped on me and licked me, then i woke up… also another dream, my best friends brother drank something and turned into the incredable hulk and jumped on cars in a car lot, very weird

A long time ago I had a dream that someone was robbing my house and he had a gun. He ended up shotting me in the leg, and I woke up immediately and the place where he had shot me was hurting and it was tingling too, it was a crazy feeling.

About a couple months ago, I had lost my cat and it actually hurt me, since even though he didn’t like me at all, I loved him.
Then two days later after my cat had disappeared I had a dream about him, I was in somebody else’s house then I see him through the window of the door and I ran out, looking through the bushes and everything, but it turned out to be a grey cat with green eyes not a grey and white with orangish-yellow eyes. Then I woke up saying “What the hell was he doing in my dream?”. And the funny thing is, even though #5 says that people under 25 years of age don’t dream in color I happened to dream every one of my dreams in colors and I’m only 13! ^-^

Oh, there’s this other dream that was totally bizarre. I went to get a glass of water in the kitchen at night, then there was this lady that I didn’t know and she was there holding a butcher a knife and she said, “Come here, sweetie.” So I threw the glass at her and somehow, even though it hit her and broke into pieces, it didn’t actually cause any damage. I started to run to my parents’ room, locked the door behind and I only found my mom (wondered where dad went). The old lady managed to break into my parents’ room and I hurrily crawled up into the bed right in front of my mom and the lady stabbed me right in the chest and I felt it! Finally, I woke up sweating and breathing really hard and touched my chest, seeing if a knife really went through but there was nothing. It felt so real. o_o

out of the thousands of people ive seen, i dream about one person

has anyone ever actually watched themselves die in their dreams?
I have, but apparently it’s not supposed to happen?

i keep dreamin were at the bus stop with loads of people and only us to get the same bus , and all the busses are comin for everyone else and ours dont cum so were sittin at the buss stop alone and i no he hates me but i say hello , and he actually starts talkin to me and were gettin along, then he gf comes along and then i wake up …

i have this dream every night what does it mean

I found this information interesting. Mostly I agree with #7 and #11, I once had a dream about standing on a stage and staring at the audience, then the whole audience came on stage and started tickling me, but in reality it was my cat scratching me.
I find that when I meet a new person or take an interest in someone, I start to dream about them alot. Mostly in situations of fear and anxiety.
Also I seem to dream about things that confused me throughout the day, for instance I was listening to a song all dayabout a lake and was confused about the lyrics not matching the build up of music. I went to sleep and dreamt about my friend dieing by a lake and the confusion of how it had happened.

i keep having this dream, where i am in a box (scared of closed spaces) and the box opensand i feel a sign of relief but then needles and sharp object come flying at me (scared of needles and sharp objects) then i start falling (scared of heights, and falling), and all this other phobia shit happpens, i hate it, its scary.

every night for the past month i have the exact same dream of me and my friend in afghanistan, we are in the marine corps in my dream, and i get shot in the leg while he is dragging me away to the helicopter i got shot in the shoulder. we reach the helicopter and he says, “its ok urll be alright.” and right when he says that an rpq hits the helicopter and i wake up sweating…. wut the hell does that shit mean??

lol um wow very interesting i have the strangest dreams. theyre very vivid and keep me quite entertained
#1 okay this was about a year ago in my dream i was a secret agent going to japan. i was going undervoer on an illegal gameshow. it was illegal cus they made you cook for sumo wrestlers and if the sumo didnt like it, they body slammed you and sat on you til you died. next part i was running from the people while they shot at me and i ran into a cafe. then i stayed there for a bit til it went to that dream sequence hypnotizing black and white spinny thing. then it was sims 2. then everything exploded and i woke up.
#2 so i was class and i had to do a project. it was very strange cus i was partnered with a kid version of one of the guys from daisy of love and they left me a video. according to them, i had to pickle a frog by a certain amount of time. so i go off and look around and find no tools to pickle a frog. then i forget how to pickle a frog. then i started crying and i woke up crying. ahaha
#3(last one) this one happened last night i recently was in a musical so thats how it started. but we were in london and had british accents. i played my original part and another lead. the dance moves and everything was different so it was weird. but it was like i was watching it from above, not like i was actually living it, though i was in the dance. then i was in a field with my friend erik. i asked him if i could ride his horse(no he does not have a horse in real life) and he said if i beat him to the building i could. so i ran and beat him. then he gave me very tasty french fries and some other guy popped up, then suddenly it was dark and my friend axel was there. he started talking about God(hes very religious in my opinion) and i woke up lol theyre fun dreams

also @yoyoclo, your actually supposed to wake up right as you die in your dream or right as your about to die, because they say that after you die in a dream, your actually dead because your brain dies or something like that

i once had a dream about an anime girl um shes very cute and we were umm like a football court and we were sitting it was like in america but i live in another country then i realized it was a dream but i couldnt control my actions i could really describe it okay the next thing what happened i felt i like her then we were weirdly transported to my house and my 2 cousins were there and they were teasing me that i like her the dream continued the next day it was a goood dream cuz i get to see her for 2 days

i have dreams where i need to get away but i cant go fast enough no matter how hard i try.. or i have dreams where i really need to see something but my eyes wont let me.. either its really extremely blurry or i cant seem to open them in my dream

Whenever I’m sick, I have the same nightmare: I’m home and there’s someone in the house trying to kill me. So I try to runaway and get out of the house. Sometimes, my younger brother is with me. Before I got my license, I would dream that I drive a car for the first time to run away. It’s really scary and I always wake up sweating. I know there’s a man running after me but I can never see his face. I just know he wants to kill me.

Also, I sometimes wake up right before he catches me. I’ve never been caught before in my dreams. I think, if the man catches me one night in a dream, I’ll actually die.

Oh and in korea, they say that dreams of climbing stairs/upward or falling from cliffs means you’re growing. Don’t know how valid that is though.

When I was a kid, I used to have this recurring dream that I was on the Titanic, in a stateroom with my mother. I knew the ship was going to sink, and I kept trying to urge my mother to get us on a lifeboat, but she kept insisting that I finish my dinner first before going anywhere. I remember feeling an urgent sense of panic and anxiety, trying to convince her of what was to happen, but I would always wake up before anything happened.

I have dream that I’m dreaming in my dream.

I always have dreams about school shootings.

It’s one of my biggest fears ever, and I keep having them.

Is it weird that I have an “out” of every class room that I am in when I go to school?

I suffer now and again from a kind of lucid dreaming, not cool. I call it The Fear because the level of anxiety is tremendous, after the paralysis subsides I can move around (usually sitting up or walking a little), and I know I’m moving and trying to wake but the dream and ‘fear’ remains, then it’s over and I’m awake for real.

ive had alot of dreams that predict the future. it freaks me out. i really only remember the first time this happened to me. it was a dream that i ran into my bf at the airport and found him holding hands with this girl from my school then begging me not to leave because it meant nothing but i didnt believe him. Later that week the same girl from my dream was running around claiming she had “Stolen my bf from me” and they were now together. I asked him if this was true and he said no but like in my dream i did not believe him. So we broke up and i later found out that this girl just did this to mess up our relationship and nothing was going on in the first place. He hated her after that… so yeah its funny how your dreams can predict the future. I believe that we all have a sixth sense and when we are unsettled enough about something it usually has some truth to it and reveals itself in your dreams. Where as normally you would dismiss these feelings with your logic.

no. 4 is not true! i have many dreams and seen people[mostly guys] that i have NEVER seen before

When you have dreams that jerk you awake – Falling or crashing ect. You may have fallen asleep to fast. Your body and brain are still in the kinda between mode- Between deep sleep and falling asleep. My dreams are in stages-at times they are lucid and i remember and at other times my dreams are as black and ignored as the lights i shut off. Stress is NO FUN…and somehow it reminds you in most dreams. But my question is…in precognitive dreams…which we all have at sometime…the faces are blurred. I have had a dream, where the amongst were blurred and i remembered that. 2 years later or so…deja vu happened. The blurred face dream came true…or had just happened ( so to speak). Did i have this dream…or this my brain making sense of it? Do i think i had a dream about this and never did. Contrary- Havent you ever had a dream and believe it to be true later? Its a foolish feeling.

great piece… i just wanted to share that i’ve had the MOST mind blowing orgasms when dreaming. i think that it’s because i’ve allowed myself to be completely uninhibited in the dream state and as a result, the climax is unlike anything i could reach during the waking state… thanks for reminding me! i’m getting sleepy- who knows? maybe tonight could be the night.

im always dreaming about people close to me that have passed away in the dreams they are alive again and find it amusing that i thought they were dead the dreams themselves are lovely but when i wake up and realise they arent alive again is a bit depressing but they say when you dream of the dead it means they are with you so thats nice

it is not weird but it does when you hear it
actually i dream harry potter world, where it really felt amazing!!!
lol, i don’t know how to explain more

I had a dream where i died which is strange because usually you wake up before you die in a dream, i was really freaked out when i woke up

I frequently take naps in the afternoon. I have started leaving History Channel on, expecially during stuff like Monster Quest, because the background noise influences my dreams, and since the naps are short, I tend to remember these very strange dreams.

I think number 13 is really true. I have had several dreams where all kinds of things happened to me; really strange, unusual things. I spent the whole day wondering what did those dreams meant and soon after that those things happened to my friends!!!…

Ok I Agree With All Facts But The First One Sort Of…See In The Morning I Forget Everything.But At Like The Variety Of The Times I Remeber It Is At Like 9:00-How Ever Late I Stay Up.(I Have Bad Sleeping Problems)..Like The Whole Dream. Im A Dreamer.Its One Of My Favorite Things To Do.One Of My Favorite Series Of Dreams When I Was 8 Was When I Dreamt I Was A Sailor Moon Character It Went On For Like Three Days.But Ive Had A Lot Of Those Precognitive Dreams Those Are My Favorite.I Dont Know Why Usually There Bad.But As I Said I Love Dreams&I Am A Dreamer.

I had a dream about some guy my age and we were in a war against eachother. And then we started fighting against eachother. Then he lokoed at me and realized i was a girl and stopped fighting me. He then took me and started talking to me like we were a couple. He then kissed me and then people started to try to kill him. But he survived. I really want to see this boy now! I can’t stop thinking about him. Why is this?

[...] you ever dreamed of a device that could capture your dreams? Record it straight to video as you sleep, or at least take still pictures? Sadly, there is no such [...]

one night, i dreamed a song… it was a man who was singing it to me, and i still remember the voice. for about 5 minutes after i woke up, i kept singing it. i knew it perfectly. but then i forgot it.

and there was nobody there, cuz i was home alone

and i’m still wondering how could that happen.

I had a dream while I was in high school that I was riding in a car with a buddy, Chuck, down a familiar street on my way home. He wanted to stop and vist a girl we knew, but I was adamant that we not. The argument got so heated, we pulled over and were going to fight about it. We squared off and out of nowhere, a book appeared in his hand and he threw it at me. I ducked, but then he threw another, and another. About that time, our mutual friend, Doug, joined him in throwing these books and I was in a crossfire. I was defenseless, and could not retrieve one of his missed books as turning around would cause me to be hit. All of a sudden I was hit in the back of my head, and the blue book that had hit me fell to the ground at my feet. I picked and up and threw it at my friends and another blue book hit me from behind. I wanted to turn around to see who was the third member of the ambush, but was still dodging Chuck and Doug’s books, and busy returning fire with the blue books.

I was very frustrated and getting a headache, so I decided I had to turn around. As I did, I woke up and to my amazement, Doug was standing over me with my blue history book that I had been reading prior to falling asleep (same as the ones I found at my feet).. He had come into my room and dropped a magazine on the back of my head and hide around the cornerI thinking I would wake up completely bewildered (remember, we were in high school). I didn’t wake the first time, so he kept at it, harder each time. He decided to hit me with a book instead and that’s when I awoke. My facehad been face-down in the pillow, so I could not have seen him prior to awakening.

This happened over 40 years ago but I remember it vividly.

I went to bootcamp a couple of months ago and while i was there i had a lot of anxiety and was anxious almost every day, ever since then i’ve been having these dreams that im still in bootcamp or somewhere similar where i have no control of leaving or getting out. When i dream about this i have panic attacks in my dreams and a very grand amout of anxiety. And when i wake up its very hard for me to realize it was just a dream. Sometimes i get scared of going to sleep and i stay up most of the night. Could someone tell me how to stop this or give some advice?

I actualy had a in which I was in an Anime convention. I woke up being very confused as to why I had that dream. Thinking things would be normal, I go around my house and my mom stops me. She had asked me who Chealsey was. I was so confused and thought it was a bit creepy because Chealsey happens to be a girl I have a crush on. I thought about it a lot and was wondering why I had started saying her name in my sleep. I read this and started woundering if the dream that involved Asian things had to do with Chealsey since she happens to be asian. It turns out I might have started saying her name in another dream that I had on that same night. The night before I had those dreams, I had a conversation with her and it had started making me think a lot about her. I think that the conversation had something associated with my dreams. I wanted to make sure of it by reading more about dreams. I have still yet to find an answer…

I had a dream last night that I was eating a giant marshmalow. As i awoken, I discovered that half my pillow was gone…go figure!

i have these reoccuring dreams with whales and oceans alll the time. or i’m always underwater but never drowing. it is so haunting to always be surrounded by whales, mostly orcas but not always. ater is a big part of my dream world.. i also have constant nightmares. i hardly ever have nice dreams. but i do dream a LOT. cry in my sleep even.

I have had dreams where I am aware it is a dream and I try to wake up. When I try sometimes I can feel my eyes open but the dream is still playing on front of my eyes, it freaks me the hell out.

I almost always have epic dreams. A few nights ago I dreamt of a abandoned city, something I’d imagine Italy (even though I’ve never been there) to be like. Anyway there was this huge kind of man made water way running through the city, like a maze, it defied gravity most of the time, flowing uphill and such other things sloping over obstacles. Anyway I dreamt there was this big swimming race through this river type thing, and me and some other people crashed a van into it and then I ‘woke up’ (not really, I was dreaming about dreaming lol) and my friends were playing a trick on me and somehow implanted this dream into my head to freak me out.

I’ve actually controlled a few of my dreams, there was this really detailed one where huge dragons were flying over my house and they’d breathe fire people, and I had to protect the house. Anyway, I was consciously dreaming at this point, and I made myself a whip and sliced the fire people in half. God, I could go into so much detail about these dreams.. I had sex under the ocean once…. and I was totally the dude, penis and everything, fuck that was weeeeeird.

i always have dreams about different situations in which i am deathly afraid of the lowest height and start hyper ventilating and eventualy pass out. the weirdest part is that in real life I am not afraid of heights at all

My mind is really damn creative. It’s odd, because I am one of the lucky individuals who have very vivid, and even lucid, dreams. In my lucid dreams, I always find it interesting that I can’t always control everything. There are certainly things I can control. I can almost always fly, and sometimes I can shoot fire/lightning from my hands and blow stuff up. Just to digress a bit, flying in dreams is one of the most amazing sensations I’ve ever had. It’s simply incredible how wonderful it feels. Anyhow, I can’t control everything in lucid dreams. I can’t, for example, just hold out my hands and make any person I want appear, or change the situation to whatever I want. However, sometimes if I find a door, I can open it and have whatever I want be on the other side. This makes no sense to me. My brain is in control of my dream. Literally, there’s nothing else. So why does my subconscious actively oppose what I consciously want? I can even feel an almost separate part of me, which controls everything about my dream, actively choose to make things more difficult for me by not allowing me that same control. Never maliciously, but simply as though I’m opposing myself for the heck of it. I just find the psychological implications interesting.

Even during non-lucid dreams, I can still sometimes feel that separate part of me twisting the plot. Almost always, I have actual elaborate, epic plots in my dreams. I’ve been a soldier in some great Persian war who has to travel across the country in order to find some magical room or object, and there have been a thousand different variations on this. Honestly, I’ve lived through pretty much every sort of story I can imagine, and I’ve been every sort of character I can imagine. If I could remember every one of these dreams, I can’t imagine how rich and fulfilling a life I’d feel like I’d lived. I wouldn’t be surprised if I’d feel quite the same way as an old man, remembering all the things and experiences he’d gone through in his life. Anyway, in these stories, I can sometimes actually feel the moment when a new idea or plot twist occurs to that separate part of me, and it is correspondingly soon instigated in the dream’s narrative. It gives me the impression of there being some great mastermind buried just below the surface of my subconscious.

Just think about it. Everything about a dream is controlled by your brain. Every little detail has been put together into a narrative. My subconscious has done some of the most marvelous, incredible things in my dreams. It has composed beautiful music, which I can honestly say I’d never heard before, it has laid out and improvised multi-faceted plotlines with complex character and exhilarating conflicts. Honestly, I feel like I have a great deal of potential that only my subconscious is capable of utilizing, because I could never come up with some of the little twists and intricacies that get put in my dreams. Or at least not on the spot like that. Maybe if I had several hours to plan out the whole thing, but not just as it happens.

I’m just glad I have quite a few more decades of dreaming ahead of me. Even if the waking-world is mediocre, at least I can be assured of an exciting eight hours, each night.

to the people that say they dont recognize the faces.

@pablo- yes you have seen that person, on the street most likely you just walk past him/her you dont RECOGNIZE her/him because that person is not significant in your life.
liked the last one

I had a dream that my friends were being skinned alive so they could donate their skin to science.

I recently had my first lucid dream which was amazing. I’ve been waiting for it to happen for years. It started with me at a friends wedding but I was dressed rather strangely. Blazer jacket, highwater jeans and a pair of flip flops. I was so distressed about my clothes. All of a sudden something clicked. I don’t know how it happened (I wish so bad I did so I could “flip that switch” again) but I realized I was dreaming. I became fully conscious in an unconscious world.

I read an earlier comment that states you have to “learn” things in lucid dreaming. AND ITS TRUE! In my short lucid experience I learned how to change my clothes by thought. I started by starring at my feet and trying to picture dress shoes instead of flip flops… it wasnt working. The second I thought of how dress shoes FEEL on my feet… WALLA! dress shoes were on my feet. I changed my clothes by imagining what they would feel like on my body, not what they would look like.

Long story short… lucid dreaming is fantastic and I look forward to my next one. Hopefully it will last a little longer

Great post

I think that you don’t always forget dreams. For instance, I had one last night that freaked me out so much, I was actually crying when I woke up. It was about how my gf was cheating on me, and we all went to a concert, me, her, and him, and they got a twosome seat on a balcony, and I was so sad and mad that I woke up and, just like in my dream, I was crying. And I still remember it, an hour later!

One of the coolest things you can do is keep a dream journal!

I read somewhere on the internet to do it and it’s so cool.. As soon as you wake up write down your dream and usually when i went back and read it again i completely could not remember writing what i did. You will also most likely notice a pattern.

A lot of my dreams are about a guy who I sort of had a summer affair with and we don’t talk anymore. Also many about fires, but the fire is never hot. and I have a lot of dreams about this abandoned meat packing factory that my friends and i have hung out in since we were younger.

There is also a condition (similar to sleep paralysis) that you are asleep but your eyes are open while you are in a dream state. So you can’t move, but you see where ever you are and usually ghosts are pretty common in those dreams. Some people never go through it, some people do several times.

I once dreamed about a guy with a really scary face and i am 100% sure that i haven’t seen him i real life (neither in a movie).
I think the facts are pretty interesting but i doubt that number 4 is true…

when i was small i had this dream.
me and my family were going to the beach. my mom’s back was kind of… rotting and she asked me to fix it. then after a while SHE MELTED.
and my brothers were building a sandcastle while i screamed my head off.

this dream was repeated a few times before (not now though).

sometimes it still scares me.

Very nice article! I enjoyed it a lot!

Very nice page. I learned a lot about dreams I never knew about. I love dreaming.

i had dreams that i was talking to my bestfriend’s girl in our classroom and she was by the board and i was standing at the back. the same thing happened a few days after my dream and i told her, “Hey! I had a dream about this. You were there and i was here and we were talking.” and she told me. “You’re crazy.” am I?
i also had this dream about the fictional characters i read. when one time i read a book about vampire, i dreamed i was one of them too. which i wish is true…

i had dreams about having sex then i wake up and I had wet dreams.

I Sleep walk + some times act out my dreams, i have to put the keys to the house in a bucket of cold water, soo it will wake me up, going back years ago i strangled my wife to death in my sleep, i was having a night mere that some one was trying to kill me but i killed them i had to burry her in the garden, + i leged it out of the country that night!!! cos i knew, the police would never believe me, its nice to be able to talk about it cos ive never talked about it… for obveus reasons

I tells my misses that she snores + i dont wana sleep with her… if she only knew!

Not 5 minutes after I finish Yume Nikki I stumble this! Creepy man… it all makes sense now.

P.S. (Don’t turn off the light, Madotsuki!)

I commonly think I’m falling while I’m asleep (why, I can’t usually remember) I always fake up abruptly only to find I am still lying down on my bed. Does anyone else experience this? Please tell me if you do!

So last night I was dreaming that I was in a mass of Cubes exactly like the movie The Cube, you know what I mean if you’ve seen it, We were going room to room throwing our shoes and we also had a mentally handicapped person in our group. We we’re picked off one by one until it was just me and the mentally handicapped. My alarm started going off, however, I was still in the set of cubes and the mentally handicapped guy in the cube with me was opening his mouth and what I thought was his annoying voice was my alarm and he wouldn’t shut up, I have a Sonic Boom alarm clock, it makes more noise than a jackhammer google it. As it grew louder I grew frustrated(this thing really hurts your ears) and in my dream I in fact beat to death a mentally handicapped man in my dream. It was awful

My most recent dream started as a false awakening in the middle of the night, and I was still laying in my bed. I looked over to my closet and saw a small garden gnome walking across the top shelf of my closet.
Strange……………

I once had a dream while I was over at a friends house that I was being kidnapped. The kidnapper strapped me to a board with my arms tied and my feet tied as if they were going to stretch me out. I started screaming in my dream and woke up from that. BUT I wasn’t screaming in real life, although I was trying my hardest. I couldn’t move (my ‘real’ body was in the same position that my dream body was in!!), make a sound, …. anything. It was terrifying. Number 10 explains it finally! I’ve been wondering about that for years!!

I once had a dream that I was up above myself and was looking at myself, and everything was blurry around the edges, and then I woke up. I think it was an out of body experience.

At one point i had a dream i was snow skiing and took a nasty fall on a drop and landed right on my back… waking me my entire body jumped at least and entire foot off my waterbed and i was extremely sore a few hours afterwards…..
Also, i can be sleeping and feel the presence of others in the same room as myself as well as the objects in the room and when the door is opened the feeling extends beyond the room im in

Ive had that body paralysis thing after my brain wakes up…totaly creepy but know i know what it is lol

I totally agree with #15. I have orgasms while dreaming at least once a week, and they seem to be alot stronger than when im awake. It seems like I have a lucid dream almost every other night. But hey, im not complaining!

I agree with number 15. I think that touch and feeling are stronger in your dreams. I have dreams that involve touch all the time and then when I wake up I feel like it really happened to me. Thanks for the facts. I love dreaming!!!!

I have learned to control my dreams… It takes practice but it works and I do it all the time!
You just have to realize you are dreaming and then without waking do what ever you want!
It’s fun, easy and it doesn’t cost a thing.

Sweet dreams

About a year ago I had a dream where I was driving on a highway, only I was in the backseat (still controlling the car.) I hit the retaining wall and then hit it a second time. I awoke on the second impact and could physically feel where I the airbag would have hit me. I told a couple of people because the dream was so vivid.

A week later I was driving home from a friend’s house in the mid-morning and tried to avoid getting into an accident which led me to hitting the retaining wall and then everything went white and I felt a second impact (I found out later it was a truck.) I remember feeling very calm, and never thinking “this is it.” Everything felt so familiar –the way my body felt afterward. The texture of the cuts on my face…

As such, I fully believe in precognitive dreams. I think my dream about my car accident help me remain calm and controlled while it actually happened. It was oddly peaceful.

I dreamed about my cousin before he was born, and he had exactly the same face! Then the theory of familiar faces has failed …
I also dreamed that a dinosaur had turned into a mosquito…
And sometimes, I get paralyzed before sleeping and things start to move, like I’m getting dizzy … : /
Dreams are interesting … : D

Last night i had a dream that i was playing baseball. i was on the same team i am in real life, but was playing two teams, which we had lost to in real life. the cardinals were in the same dugout as us. i soon realized we were in the gym from my school. the room was huge, though. i went up to bat, and i hit (or mabye bunted) the ball. it went to the ight (towards 1st base) and i started running. the, the ball turned into a beachball. the beachball hit my leg (which had happend in gym class this year, and my terrible gym teacher called me out) and a turned second. i slid head first into second, turning to the side, exactly like another little luege baseball player who i respect did in real life. i then went to the overcrowded dugout where my friend (whos sometimes a jerk) who was on the cardinals in real life, was telling me off that i should be out. i then whispered to my 2 friends (one who was accualy on my real baseball team and 1 who wasnt) “hey, he’s jealous of me and wants to kill me.” i was batting 8th in the lineup, and we were at the top, so i asked my coach (same as real life) if i could go to the bathroom. he said yes, and i left the dugout, and i was in my cousins house (who lives right by me) and i went in, it was exactly like it is in real life, and i did my buisness. i cant remember the rest, but so much was just like real life . THE CRAZIEST PART–i had broken my thumb in baseball getting hit by a pitch just 2 days ago!!

i had a seris of dreams about a girl a few months ago, ii was sure i had never met her before, than i went on a trip with my friend down to his girlfriend’s sisters house and the girl i was dreaming about was the sister, now she is 8 years older than me and iam quite sure i had never met her before, after i met her i have not dreamed about her since.

I used to dream alot of flying (like superman w/o the cape and tights) and breathing under water. when it occured to me that doing these were not possible I would fall out of the sky or struggle not to drown and then fight like hell to wake up

“Sometimes When I cook…I weep”

had a dream about that ad.

I’ve been learning to lucid dream more, the flying is fun.

how do you lucid dream reliably?

There is absolutely no scientific evidence for precognition. It is absolute and utter nonsense and should not be referred to as if it is factual. It is pseudo-scientific rubbish.

@ Jane

Maybe she saw the short that followed the re-release of Night of the Living Dead. The short was called Night of the Living Bread. It was pretty goofy, but bread was chasing people. lol

Something really weird is that i have a dreams that come back every few years and sometimes there the really frightful ones. Has anyone had this experience before?? If so… yay im not the only one )

was sleeping with my brother and dreamnt i was in the bathroom peeing and wet the bed and my brother had a dream it was raining:)

When i go thru my insomniatic stages, i lay down and my body feels as if is going back and forth between being tiny and huge and i see very dark undescribable images in my head, and when i finally do get to sleep i have a reacurring dream of where i see myself from an aerial view in a massive labyrinth surrounded my endless nothing and i see and hear myself screaming my sisters name then it morphs into me being on my third story balcony of a house i used to live in as a kid and i feel panic and see all of my family running in terror and i look up and i see the stars but they arent stars they are a mixture of dark green and purple spirals that look as if they were drawn by crayon then i wake up, it happened about every 6 months until i was 12 that night it took its normal chain of events then i woke up, realizing that i had wet the bed i stood up and started taking off my clothes until i seen a flash of light coming from my window so i looked out and seen a beautiful meteor fly across the sky i dont know if it symbolizes anything but i thought it was pretty wierd because after that night i never had those dreams again, i still do suffer insomnia though

i had a dream that i was talking to a purple monkey and then it turned into a blue squirrel and then this frog came up and ate the squirrel and started talking to me and then it grew into a giant frog and thats all i remember. it’s really random

When i was about 6 or 7 playing soccer i dreamed that the next day the soccer game would end up being 5 – 2 and i would score the 5th goal. Well i woke up extremely happy and told my mom who ended up telling my coach, and by the end of the game the score ended up actually being 5 – 2. I wont forget that dream since i knew i had predicted it would happen that way and it actually happened. Good to know that those can happen hopefully ill see some lottery ticket numbers in my future.

I’ve had a few precognitive dreams in the past. One of the most notable ones was when I dreamt that I was on one of the ferries that had left the mainland where I live. Moments later I was in the water watching the boat sink between the waves, and life rafts were all around with weeping and coughing people, it was dark, but the water was lit up by the moonlight. We were near some islands in between one of the passes. It was extremely vivid. The next day it was said on the news that one of the last ferries of the day, from the mainland, had sunk. It was the first ferry to sink in something like 20 years. More interestingly, though, the ferry had sunk near an island. A remote first nations community live on the bay and were able to provide assistance to the survivors. The island is incredibly similar to the one in my dream.

I just had a dream last night about me going over to one of my best friends house (who happens to be female while I’m male) and we ended up having this weird party, and then I randomly crawled into bed, and her right next to me, and then I looked over at her and she transformed into a cat, but not just any cat. When I was younger, I had a cat named Gracy that was my fav cat of all time, but she ended up getting killed (not related to dream). Anyway, my best friend turned into Gracy basically. Which really is weird, cause I don’t know what to think of it.

Love this post, although I’m not agreeing with them all. My view of dreaming is more a shamanistic view. I’m a lucid dreamer. For me the images we see in our dreams are related to our internal dialogue. Like in the waking state. We never stop talking to ourselves or thinking or judging. All these things in ourselves are reaffirming the objects we see. When all that stops, when we stop, when we are still and silence, then even our reference system will stop and then we’re just perceiving and aware nothing more. Total freedom. In our dreams we also have a internal dialogue so when I dream I just sit somewhere quiet and start to meditate.

But that’s just my view. The pics in this post are great, I really like them.

People, we see millions of faces in our lives. We see so many strangers’ faces just going about our everyday business, faces of people we don’t know and will never see again, but the brain retains those faces. Think of all the strangers you see over a lifetime – millions, all stored away in our brains. Is it that hard to believe the faces we see in dreams are ones we’ve never seen before? It’s just that we don’t remember them.

I had this dream a long time ago and I still remember it,
I was running away from someone & i had a bunch of money in my pocket and I wanted to see if it was like that one Harry Potter movie so I woke up and I checked in my pocket but there wasn’t any money there.
:/
This dream I had a lot. Like 3 times.
So my family and I were staying in this haunted house and this giant guy owned it and it was night the whole time that we stayed there and all these horrible, creepy things kept happening to us.
And at the end, the giant was holding a beautiful white pony with a pink mane and tail in his hands and told us that the pony was doing all this because the pony was harassed when it was smaller.
WEIRD DREAMS.

i had this recurring dream (like ten times!) that i was in my elementary school and someone was chasing me. He wanted my blood for some sort of transfusion thing, and then one of my friends came in, she had broken like every bone in her body and the chances of her survival were slim. She said he could have her blood instead, and then she died. I woke up crying. The weirdest thing is, i moved the next school year and met the guy from my dream. i swear i had never met him before. i never managed to trust him.

Ok, most things that ppl see all the time come up in there dreams. So I had played Grand Theft Auto EFLC (ps3) for like 12 hours and when I closed my eyes all I could see was a Chopper flying. ………I went to sleep and in my dream I was driving with someone in the car with me, when a chopter flys by and kills the passenger but leavs me unharmed, and the rest of the dream is about me trying to bring them back to life in some house with an evel scientest. (btw) Don’t be mad at my generation!

omg this is ssoo cool i had to wright a speech on “i never knew that” and i found this websight and now MY SPEECH IS DONE WOOP WOOP! yeahhhhhh rest of the night 4 facebook HELL YEAH! hahahahah no seriosuly this was a cool website it is cool no jk i didnt no any of the shit that was written there! i mean bind ppl can dream like woahhhhh! sick much?

thx 4 this website! it was awsome! Xx

Yesterday I had a dream that I went online and looked up dreams, and today i went online and looked up dreams without even realizing i had just done that in a dream.

i’ve always wondered why is it that whenever i realize that im dreaming and try to talk to a character in my dream about it they look at me like im crazy? i asked a friend of mine if he had the same expierence but he said that the characters in his dream acted like they were scared to talk about it and kept insisting that “we dont talk about that here” if anyone has any ideas on this matter feel free to drop me an email at llamaboi666@yahoo.com

i accidentally whispered my classmate’s name when i was in first grade and she did appeared in my dream…we have sex together..(in drmy dream)..hehehe weird..that was so crazy dream of mine..

When I was a kid I would have a lot of precognitive dreams about scenes off of movies. I remember two scenes that I dreamed, one was the scene of Jurassic Park 3 when they are sinking in the cage on the boat with the dino, the other was at the end of SpiderMan 2 when Peter crawls to his girl on the web.

Last year I traveled to Germany.
I didn’t know any german, but suddenly I started dreaming in german!
and I didn’t understand any word from my dream
I also started dreaming with subtitles.

I contemplate consumers are advised to not insult Jennifer Love Hewitt’s physique. She can be described as a lovely woman and has curves in every one of the correct spots.

Matisse, ohhh, you are so funny ) I like’ed you dream

@Jal i have the same dreams like that normally in the dream and im in this line of people and we go into a room dress in a rag and then i jump…………………………..

Well,I got shot by this guy from my class.I got this big bruise,but I didn’t really get hurt…..:-o

I don,t think that we only dream about the people we know or we have seen.

My mom told me she had this dream about that she was a cow. And she told us she was talking to another cow about how it might feel to be slaughtered, and then they were brought in for slaughtering, and she said the weird thing was they were alive when they started to cut them into pieces, and she said first went the legs, and then she woke up just as two blades came to behead her… It didn’t seem like it had been scary to be dissected alive at all XD She seemed to find the dream rather amusing XD
I have had so many f*cked up strange dreams, but i can hardly remember any of them… I mean, i can remember little pieces, like broken filmclips, screenshots and so, but i can’t make any sense out of it.
It’s so weird XD

One time a few years ago (I would have been maybe 14 or 15) I had a dream that I was really young (3,4 or 5). And I was at some large event (Like a show/fair). I wanted to go to this section full of cars/tractors, but my parents wouldn’t let me. So we went off to get some thing to eat. Then, I just left and went and looked at what I wanted to. I was lost, and some nice lady found me, so she took me to some tower. And she get the commentators to announce over the speakers that I was lost. Then my parents came and got me. I told my mother about this dream – turns out it really did happen, I had just never been told this story.
So I’m assuming that my dream was some kind of memory I didn’t know I had.
(If that all makes sense!)

I had a dream I was in a park (i was around 18 in my dream I think…) we were having a water balloon fight and suddenly I see my little brother, running and playing, he may have been 6 (hard to remember) I squirted him with a water gun, and suddenly everyone was gone he was lying there, when I walked up to him he was bloody, I was horrified, I shot my brother as if it were a real gun. My dream jumps then, I am at home telling my mom what happened and she doesnt seem to care, at that point im crying and upset that she doesnt understand its real I felt sick to my stomach and everything. Then as im telling her I suddenly remember that I had just assumed he was dead! I never even tried to take him to the hospital… When I woke up i was crying. I ran to check on my little brother and was relieved it was all a dream.

last night my friend and i smoked marijuana, and went home. later we found out that we both had the same dream about being in the woods somewhere with other people who were running around. the dream had something to do with marijuana as well. not only that, we both went to sleep at the same time (12 am) and i remember saying to myself “i need to fall asleep at twelve.” We also both fell asleep watching the same tv show. Not only THAT, but we both woke up around 2 am and oddly enough, we both described the same feeling of confusion and not being completely conscious. I can also remember that I was mumbling or saying something as I woke up, but I can’t remember what it was. When we both awoke we were also creeped out to find that we were both EXTREMELY and abnormally horny as soon as we woke up, and we both (excuse me) masturbated right when we woke up. If that’s not weird, I dont know what is.

i Dreamm ALL The Time , About Funny,Freaky,Weird Thinqs . i Pretty Much ALWAYS Remember My Dreams . Every Morning When i Wake Up I Know What i Dreamed That Night . My Dreams Are All Pretty Unforgetable But One I Had
About Three Or Four Years Ago , Stood Out, And i Will Definately Never Forget It.

WHAT HAD HAPPPENNNED WAS .
-Me and a Friend Were Havinq a Sleepover , And Then My Mothers Friend Called Me To Tell Me That If You Touch A Star At 5 In The Morning You’ll See Jesus Or Something Like That . So , Me And Her Waited Til Five To Go Climb On The Roof And ‘Touch a Star’ . She Didnt Want To Though . So i Went and Touched One By Myself , When i Touched It All The Darkness Turned To Like a SunSET , Orange Bright Birght Orange . And All The Land Turned To Water . ButHouses Were Still There , And When i Looked Behind Me There Was a TINY Strip Of Land Where People Stood And Then i Lookd Down And i Was On a gigantic Lilly Pad, And Then i Lookd Forward And Saw The Sun Right In Front Of Me , And i Looked To My Right , To See That i Was Holding Jesus’s Hand.

i had a dream this morning! i had a dream about a guy i used to have a crush on in high school! i am now 25 been out of high school for 7 years! i told the guy i liked him so! i dont think it was suppressed feelings! but anyway. this guy has gotten into an accident in like my sophomore on junior year of high school! which left him paralyzed! now i haven t seen him in about 3 or 4 years but on top of that i heard he died!

so anyway in my dream i dreamt we were in a place that seemed to be school! and he came and talked to me and he was smiling and im not sure if he hugged me but i do remember smiling and talking i also remember getting on my cellphone and i was about to leave him a message on facebook asking him that if in two years he wasnt in a relationship could we have a child together! but than i woke up!

which i do want to have a child in two years cause i’ll be 27 and i already have a five year old! and im not in a relationship or married! but i want to be married and have another child! SO…..

Let’s see what will happen to dreams with the transition to 3D TV

When I go to bed at night and shut my eyes I always get a flash of the dream I had the night before. Every night. Does anyone else get this?

Sometimes, when it get’s to the good part, the dream stops and I’m grumpy for the of the day

I used to remember my dreams, I even had a recurring nightmare, then a few years ago I stopped remembering my dreams. I don’t even wake up with a ‘sense’ of having dreamed. When I wake up I am completely disoriented as if I were waking in a strange place every day. Even if I lay down for a nap and sleep for more than 30 minutes, I wake as if I have slept a full night, no dreams and totally disorientated to place, date and time. Sometimes utterly terrifying.

The only time I recently recalled dreams was when I took Chantrix to quit smoking. My BF told me I also sat up in bed talking and moving. He was afraid I would start walking in my sleep because I was so animated. I stopped taking it after a month, it was long enough to quit. Yeah me!

Anyone else have no ‘sense’ of dreaming?

I fell asleep one day, and had a dream where my crush didn’t like me & he lied to me and when i woke up i had tears down my eyes and my chest hurt so bad that i couldnt move. I felt trapped as if something was takibg over me. Like i was drowning like i had no one in the world. It was wiered i didn’t bother talking tomanyone that day cause whatever hapened in my dream happened that day. I still look back at it & its just bothers me alot.

Also there was this time i had a dream where everyone hated me & when woke up i was choked up & my pillow was wet & from tears you could tell & when i looked into the mirror it was i was blinded with light i couldnt see much just blobs of light every where i blinked. Catracts? Imppossible i never looked into light whhen sleeping or when falling asleep. Wiered its that everytime tbese dreams occur i never like talking or telling anyone what happens i dont like this it scares me :’( please help!
P. S im in 7th vrade and i get a whole bunh of feeling overwhelm me when i have these dreams how can i stop this ease?

aha these are really intereesting (: but usually when i dream, its about something that happened earlier that day. not exactly what happened, but something related to what i did and i can easily pick it out … and its sorta creepy aha. and i can never remember my dreams wheni wake up in the morning.. i may look at something on the comp after i wake up and have this…feeling as if it was deja vu and it remind me of my dream..and yeah lolol but i can never remember it, and it saddens meee lol ! cause i used to remember my dreams all the time and i’d remmeber telling my mom bout them lol (: anywayssss ya

also, i remember this one time when i was little.. about 6 years old, me and my best friend of that time were having a normal sleepover…as usuall , then we woke up and we had the EXACT SAME dream… like we’d explain it to each other and finish eachothers senence while explaining it and i swear we had the same one..tripped me out lol. AND all the time i’d just be thinking randomly or something would come up and i wud remember or have this feeling like ‘hey i’ve dreamt about tat before” lolol

Like others, I keep having a very similar (almost the smae) dream. I mean like maybe twice a year. It’s very odd as I can remember having this dream for almost 20 some years.

I had many wired dreams were I can feel them touch me O_o nothing about s*x just scary things and i can hear them talk to me too… Nd I use to have this dream well idk if it was a dream but I usualllay get it wen I’m sleepin in my dad car Nd there some wired ghost stick figue dude who will walk into the living room and ther will be some1 sitting doing something lyk reading a book or watching tv Nd the ghoststick figure will stay there and chat for alittle bit and then goes up stairs (there 3 doors) Nd It will go to the last door which will b last door to the left Nd then I awake up after that Nd later at nite I’ll have the same dream but different kinda. Nd I try to go my parents bed(lyk every 5 yr old will do) but I couldn’t move any further from my bed it lyk there was wall in front of me nd I couldn’t talk at all but I was able to go back to my bed that’s pretty much it nd i use to tell this story to ppl but no1 have the answer y I have that dream. Then I had another simaller dream just lyk that but different same dudebut we were in a green mini van he would drive to a building Id wake up from that Nd my fingers were chopped off nd I ran to my mom(she was in the bathrrom) and all she said ‘oh it’s ok go back to bed know’ nd after she said that I woke up and check my hand to c if I still had my fingers . haha. That happen long asz time ago but I young wen I had that dream.

I know I’ve had mannnnny dreams, but I can’t remember all of them. I think I block alot out when I wake up, because it makes me believe I stayed up all night and therefore makes me tired . The fact about faces really got me thinking because I had a strange dream revolving around this one person I never seen before in my life (well apparently I have).
I’ve once woken up with someone’s name on my mind, just a random classmate I don’t really know. I thought that was strange.
I’ve also had a dream before that I could fly, but I got stuck in a tree and was afraid I would fall. That dream was reoccuring for a while.
I enjoy hearing about people’s dreams, because the subconcsious is creative, and it gives me ideas for my drawings

I remember a dream i had during the summer…. i suppose it was a lucid dream because i knew i was in a dream the whole time and that never happened b4… well here’s the dream…

I don’t remember all of it, but it was pretty weird… There was a party at my house with a moon bounce in my front yard and all of these kids from my elementary school were there… then some guy pulls up in a Buggy a.k.a. Volkswagen, and it didn’t have a roof…. the guy driving said,” Who wants to come?!” and me and some other kids yelled,” ME!!!” and we all got in the car and the guy drove us to this museum place…. It was a WEIRD museum because the things that were there were mini-replicas of other countries that were actually REAL… for example: say you r at Egypt standing on the Sphinx. In the museum, there is a mini-replica of u standing on the sphinx, but when u move in real life, the mini-replica of u on the replica would move… u see Wat i mean?? anyways, some of the replicas showed the streets of some towns and stuff and there were cars on the replica that were driving(so the cars in real life were driving, Too)and the guy that was driving just walked up to the replica and started SMASHING them killing EVERYONE!! I ran up to the guy and told him,” STOP IT!!! STOP!!!” and he ran up the the mini-replica of Ireland and started smashing that one (oh, and I’ve always wanted to go to Ireland because i think its beautiful over there) and i told him to stop. I think he did, so i started walking towards the back of the museum and i started thinking to myself , in the dream,” Is this real?? Is this really happening??” and i would try to tell someone if it was real and they would just ignore me. Well, as i walked towards the back, there were these mini-replicas of dinosaurs but, again, they were alive! i started freaking out and when i woke up, i really thought i was still dreaming :O (ps Sorry this is so long)

I have recently had major changes in my life, and I have experienced a lot of anxiety lately, owing to the fact that I sort of hate my new place/situation/school etc, and I think this has been causing me to have a load of freaky nightmares instead of the beautiful, luscious and poetic dreams I used to have.

Last night though, I had the scariest dream of my entire life, which is why I looked up information about dreams today, thus stumbling upon this site. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen the movie or read the book “Lovely Bones,” but if you haven’t it is about this fourteen year old (I think) girl who gets raped and murdered on her way home from school by one of her neighbors. This is at the beginning, and the rest is about her family figuring out what happened and all that. It’s an AMAZING film, really beautiful and asesthetic, one that kind of haunts you for a while, and I have dreams about it often.

Anyway, I had a dream that I was like the girl, and some old man was raping me or trying to murder me, (he looked like stanely Tucci plus a substitute I once had), and other things that I can’t remember. But I know that I was running alot in the dream, and I woke up with my heart beating faster than I’ve ever felt it.

It seems silly now, but in the dark in the middle of the night, this dream had me paralyzed by fear. If you see the movie you’ll understand why; alot of images from it, like the pieces of her body in a metal box and his clumsy feet chasing her up a flight of stairs played across the dream, scaring the living hell out of me. I lay there with my eyes screwed shut, tight in a ball, heart racing, as if making myself into a little shell would keep the serial rapists/killers at bay. It seems silly, but that was the biggest ammount of fear I’ve ever felt, and I’ve had a lot of nightmares.

I think that dreams embody the Fragile Unreality and the Upsilambas’ (Nabokov), that we don’t have the capacity for in real life. Like Rose says in Titanic (I know, I know,) “It’s like being in a dream…there’s truth, but no logic.” I think dreams are like fiction insofar as their pure, expansive truths emblazoned in tragically beautiful images. The symbolism is such that I could never imagine, and in dreams I feel like my imagination has gone free and wild and beautiful, free from all critiscism and inhibitions. Dreams may not be science, but they have transformative powers.

Then again, what do I know? I could be utterly wrong:)

Most of the time I dream about this girl and I don’t have a crush on her….but as day goes by I always dream of her and I’m slowly “falling in love with her”…. I Don’t know why….

To all the people who say they don’t recognise faces – Of course you don’t!
It clearly states that you have probably seen hundreds of THOUSANDS of faces in your life, most of them just once for what is most likely a millisecond to a second. You can hardly expect to be able to recognise them. That’s why it feels like you’ve never seen them before.

I’ve had a reoccurring dream that im in a white room and i hear a noise. it starts out calm, a light tapping whisper in the distance. then it quickly becomes aggravated and threatening….coming closer and closer. the dream usually ends with a little girl telling me to run away and get out of here before its to late for me.

I had a past life dream that seemed so real. I was freeing a slave.. helping him escape. The details were very vivid. The period dress I was wearing..the clothes that he was wearing, The way I had my hair, the house, the fence..the smell of the meadow, birds singing,everything. I was telling him he had to run..go now! It left me feeling very shaken the next morning.

Sometimes i dream that dogs can see their relflexions in trees XD

i once dreamt that i had a tiger running after my life, it k illed a whole lot of my family and i was left all alone. i didnt even wat to live but i was running because of basic incstinct…it was scary!
this was when i was 7 or 8 or 6 or something you really cant blame me for not remembering…im 12 now!

ha ha great facts. but sometimes i see the faces which I never had seen before.

sometimes i dose off and i willl wake again with a massive jump just before something is about to hit me i think its a sign of nerves

I once dreamt I was walking in a park with a dog and then it started to bark. Right then my dad woke me up and said my dog wanted to jump up in my bed, because he’d been standing there barking. So that point must be right.

I like trying to interpre dreams, it is so much fun. But one dream I’ve had doesn’t make any snese to me at all. I’ve dreamt it almost the same twice, and it’s me being like ten years older than I actually am. I am a grown up and a sort of investigator/detective. In the dream I have this case about a missing boy, who has been obducted from his home where he lives with his single mom. He was obducted during night time through his bedroom window on the third floor or something. There was also this security tape – the only real “evidence” – that is a very close up on the building’s facade and at one point it shows this pale, thin arm sweeping by, holding some sort of lamp or light. Both times I’ve felt this strong need to solve the case and find the boy, like it’s my responsibility. I sit in an empty computer room watching the tape over and over telling myself “this is it, this is the kidnapper”. But I always wake up before anything else happens.

I just get confused because I’m not anxious about anything and I’m not worried about anything or feeling there’s something I need to take responsibility for. I just can’t figure out how the dream has anything to do with me.

I once dreamed one song and I woke up in 6.00 a.m. and wrote song in 15 minutes and it was really weird because when I woke up I knew the melody and I remembered all words previously dreamed

Very interesting post. What sources did you consult for these factoids on dreaming? You mention the book “The Dream Book…” at the end of your post. Was this the only source?

Thank you for this article. I found it very interesting. And for those who do not believe in precognitive dreams, I would like to admit that I have in fact had a precognitive dream. A couple actually. It is a really cool thing. The mind is one cool playground.

I m shocked to tel u all dis dat it has happ two times wid me…
today an a day back i was dreaming…in dat dream i was sleeping….n in d dream i was again dreaming abt sumthng…
cn sumbody tell me wat does it mean if any1 has cum across such a situation….
Thank you

i had this one weird dream recentlyi was with my mom and some sort of alian and so we were looking for something but i cant quite remember what but i remeber we stopped ina dark cave to take a rest and my mom tried saying something to me and i couldning quite hear her and i had to lean over this alian who appeared to be asleep, i guess i put my hand to close to him and he grabbed it, tight so frikcing tight that it woke me up and when i woke up it still felt like someone was grabbing my hand i looked at it and it was fine, but it still hurt…. the really weird thing was i checked my phone after to see when i sent the last text and it was only just a minute ago
are a lot supposed to happen in dreams, in such a short amount of time in real life?

Haha I love my dreams! my favorite is when I am walking along, and I can literally swim in the air, it is so much fun, and sometimes when I wake up I swear I can do it for real….

Up to this day, I remember this dream of mine years ago. It felt so real that I even question myself up to this day if the dream really happened. I’m sure in reality, it did not, but it FEELS like it did and Ibegin to question my thoughts. In that dream, I was driving out-of-town with my girlfriend (an “ex” now). I can still envision the roads and some of the scenes UP TO THIS DAY. We go up the mountains into this city. We tour the city, hand-in-hand, see the sights then drive back home. The weird thing is it “felt so real back then” and when I think of it NOW, it still “feels so real” to this day. The city we went to in my dream not fictional. It’s a real city. I just don’t know how to explain in. Should I? I don’t know what it means? Is there? What also bugs me to this day is that “it feels so real”. Thoughts, anyone?

P.S. This is not the only one. I have 4 or 5 more dreams that “feel so real” and that I can still remember details of, inlcuding how I felt during and after the dream, UP TO THIS DAY. Is it just me? Or has anyone experienced the same thing? These experiences have actually led me to write a short piece of literature. These experiences also made me love that movie “Inception”.

i often have dreams the ones i remember are of girls i know or saw on tv or a movie and we are always doing something intimate wheather haveing sex are going on a romantic date on the beach at a resturont and some times i have to save them. i keep a note book by my bed so i can record my dreams i remember and i see that all are about romance that i can remember and i read them and im like wow did i write that i do forget them fast if i choose to sleep and not write it down then when i do go to wrte it down i can only remember a few details as when i first wake up and write it down i can remeber mosst of it if i wrack my brain while i write.

in a couple of my dreams i wake up to the sound of a gun shot and it sounds so real i wake and im sweating and breathing very heavy

weirdly i dream something and then it happens like the time when i dreamed i was going to hate this dumb ass in my school and now i hate him. i acatully remember having the same dream for about two years. there were two guys with masks on so i couldnt see their faces, my parents, and me. the place was really dull, the to guys gave my parents two choices, one= they jump over the cliff, die and i live, or two= i jump, die and they live. i picked the: i die and you guys live, but they picked the: we die you live. so the idiots of my parents died then it was my turn to die i always screamed no out of dread. the good thing was before anything could happen to me i woke up.

I have dreams within dreams… That are within other dreams but if i die i go into limbo and will have a miserable time for 50 years

Can someone please tell me why I have this reoccurring dream of being kidnapped. The dream starts with me in the car in the front seat. Im 4 years old, because that was the first time I had the dream. And there is a man that I can still describe and see so well, he’s not old but he’s not young. I’m scared so I crack open the door and all I can see is the road going by. He’s yelling at me telling me to get back in the car , but I decide to jump out. Then I don’t know what happens.

I’m almost 16 now and I still have this dream sometimes.

I also had a dream the other day. A giant tsunami came towards the city I lived in. I tried to tell people but they wouldn’t believe me because we live in Missouri. It’s like I was the only one who could see it. I climbed up to the city’s water tower because it’s the highest strongest place but my family couldn’t climb fast enough. Everyone and everything was killed by the wave. I came out a few days later and the whole city was completely destroyed.

I woke up crying.
Can someone please tell me what these mean?

I had a dream where I was walking and then a strong wind blew me away and I was trying to stop myself but I couldn’t and I woke up crying..
And another one were I was at school it was really hard to walk so i was dragging my feet.
does anyone know what this means? or maybe its just nothing but dreams.

Good research. I used to think that I was the only one experiencing such scenarios

Fact number 4 is bullshit, just like fact 14

do you mean to say that youve lived fifty years of life in limbo, but in real life you were only dreaming one single night? make this clear as i find it to have significant importance.

hey man, im not your typical person. which is why i have an answer for you. remember though, im not right, nothings right, we dont know what truth is, or what reality or existence or nonexistence contain at all. we know everything that weve seen in our very short lives, and that is what we take as fact, but the rest.. we just infer or guess or ‘believe’ and make judgment upon, are you following me? so listen, i dont claim to know what your dream means, but through spiritual experiences, mad meditation, and constant searching for answers i have found that there are no answers.. only feelings. when you feel something, its so much stronger than when you hear a fact and have to take it for truth. so see if you can feel my words, see if you feel what i say is real, or if it simply isnt real or true at all. i believe the dream of you being a child being kidnapped is either you in another dimension, one which you diverged your path in this life and avoided. every second holds a trillion changes and options and therefore infinite dimensions for infinite possibilities. in each dimension it is just as real and just as physical along with all forms of our consciousness and even some things that we couldnt even begin to fathom. you may have made a choice in your life that took you off of the path that would have had you kidnapped, and therefore you sit where you are with your entire history behind you without evidence of ever being kidnapped, because you diverged from the other dimensions path, the path that would have led you to being kidnapped if you had stayed on it, get me? the other theory is that you may be having dreams of a child who has been kidnapped in this dimension, in our reality, and you are living time over and over again re experiencing it because for some reason you are making a connection to the child that was kidnapped, even if it happened before you lived or if it is yet to happen you are still making the connection. we are all connected, even through different dimensions and alternate realities everything is all connected, and i believe you may be reliving this experience because that connection is held between you and the child for whatever reason. the experience was obviously highly traumatic, especially being that you jump from the car, but why you are dreaming it is an answer only you will ever know, if you ever do find out. as for the vision of a tsunami, i believe its precognitive, or a premonition. whether or not it has to do with our reality or another reality in another dimension is unsaid, but what happened to you was very real. more real than the computer in front of your face. the dream you had was something you felt with more senses than your body holds, if you could understand that. all this means to me is that you felt it because god meant for you to feel this. dont go around telling people about your experience, i mean you can, but youll only be known as the crazy kid. instead remember how you felt, relive the experience in your head over and over again until the experience guides you to peace. i know it sounds ridiculous, but everything you experience is meant for you to experience, death, rape, murder, dreams…. all of it. sharing these experiences isnt the reason for the experience itself, we experience these things and feel these ways so that we may grow in whatever direction needed. let it influence you, guide you, help the way that you live your life. if you choose to share, share because you feel like what you say to another person will only help them too like it will help you. i hope this helps man. i know lifes hard as hell and its weird as shit, but were all people, all souls, all energy, and were all connected. everything we do is together, even if we seem to be so far apart. were here to help each other man, and when you find god, feel god, know god, youll know thats what were here for. keep the negative out and keep the positive in man, embrace the world and opportunity will find you.

time weaves, intertwines, and as the universe shares the same heartbeat we are more than capable of reaching into the past and also the future. what you experienced may not have even been a part of your soul at all, meaning it wasnt a past life the way you would typically figure it to be, instead you were probably recalling a real experience that another soul had, and that soul spoke through your dream causing the dream to occur. you, for whatever reason pulled that information from the ‘flow’ or the ‘flow’ spoke to you. the ‘flow’ is all souls, all energy, everything in existence and everything in non-existence. dont be afraid when the flow speaks to you, or when youre breaking through to the flow, because its more beautiful than real life! the flow is what life REALLY is. its everything we could never comprehend, and when we have experiences like that, we see a sliver of whats really happening in existence, in gods creation. enjoy the feelings, even when the feeling is agonizing. enjoy all aspects of life, no matter how hard. im sorry my message isnt motivating, but i find it to be honest.

agreed

Sounds like Inception.

I was once dreaming that I was in some sort of cartoon land. Everything was animated and was very colorful. I was slowly wandering along a yellow path when I seen the back side of a sitting puppy. I started to chase after it. It started to jog off into the distance. Everything happened in slow motion. I got distracted because I seen santas sleigh and reindeers gliding through the sky. Santa waved at me. I gazed at it for a while and then looked back at the dog still looking at its back side. It turned around and I seen its green glowing demond eyes staring at me. Then I looked back into the sky and there I seen green glowing eyes in a black cape staring at me, which was santa before. Thats all.

I also have the same thing but i see it happen a few weeks later ?

I have that same feeling right when I’m about to fall asleep. It used to happen a lot but now not so much.

I’m slowly learning how Lucid dreams are the best!

I had quite a s e x u a l dream last night; I’m 16 and a virgin but i had a dream that i was having s e x u a l intercourse with a guy i like and it felt strangely real even though i have no idea what it feels like; last night gave me an idea of what it will be like.

I usually dream in the 1st person and I only remember dreaming in the 3rd a few times. Very interesting question.

last night i had a dream i wish would come true. i dreamed that this girl i like ,that has a girlfriend and both of those girls are my friends, kissed me and loved me like i have loved her. i hope that this comes true someday and hopefully sooner then later because i cant go a day without thinking about her.

Btw the whole ” hey I’ve had that happen before” is acctually called Deja vou . I’m not trying to be a b***h or anything , just lettin you know. And that Is very wierd.

Later, – Charley

last night i had a dream i made out with my sisters exboyfriend who is 4 years older which is weird cause im 14. its also weird cause i’ve never actually seen him and in my dream i never actually saw his face. it was really really weird!!

I once had a dream in year 5 where there was this large wall of wood and at the bottom a pond with a half mature crocodile in it and around this pond was rocks to sit on.
I remembered the dream so well and at the end of year 6 I went to a adventure camp with primary school and there was a absaling wall… And of corse it was exactly like my dream and the coaches joked there was a croc in the pond. The only difference is in my dream the croc bit off my hand when I went to see what was in the pond. From then on I’ve always believed that something tells us the future in are dreams and it’s up to us remembering to see if it comes True.

Ever heard of paragraphs.. I was very interested in what you have to say..

One major difference between reading something on paper on on the web is that you have to make it scimmable..

People often scan the text more than actually read the text.
And you do a million things at once, so they can’t read it with full awareness.

you should have gotten back with her.

i had a dream that i was on an old boat, then i was skiing and fell and this guy i like helped me up and i fell like 3 times hahaha but

i always have this dream with my friend where i own a store and she comes and shopps there and i never told her and one day after i had the dream she told me tht she dreamed where i owned a store and she came in to shop, this has happened like 4 times

and i always have bad dreams where everyone dies and or im hurt by some weird guy, why?

I had a dream that I gave birth to sheep beat that :L slightly worried

i have had this dream a few times. it seems like some sort of construction, and it just going bigger and larger, to an incomprehensible size. it just scares the shit out of me, i have no idea why. when you think of it, its not very scary, but in the dream it just so frightening

When I was a kid I used to dream in sepia, like old photos, and there was this peculiar mental….flavour, is the only way I can put it, I can’t really describe it, but it was always kind of anxiety making. I’ve never heard of anyone else having sepia dreams

i dream every night that somthing happens to me i got shot got hit by a bus , train car etc or fel of the stairs .. and after this imedietly i jump in my place while i am sleeping i need o know the secret of that any ideas?

also and sometimes i see stuff while dreaming its like 10 seconds and after 3-4 weeks it happen i memorize it but i cant remember where i saw it till i knew i was dreaming u know its kind of a vision..?

I had a dream when I was younger and it was about a flying pig chasing the town. Everyone in my dream was so scared it was hilarious!! But my friend had a dream where she gave birth to a little baby chicken. Gosh, we have the weirdest dreams!:)

one night I dreamed that i was holding money and i could feel it but when i woke up my hand was crunch and when i open my hand nothing was there

have you guys noticed that whenever you die in a dream you wake up. or whenever you fall in real life you wake up. or sometimes in dreams you cant move,speak or barely breath at all. or feel like everybody your talking to is somehow distant. or hear something you were thinking about get louder and louder to a point where it is scaring you how loud it is and it hurts so u try to wake up. or when your in a dream and u are scared so u just close ur eyes and shut ur ears. or have the same dream more then once or parts of that dream. just asking

why would u get the autograph of the president?

its not all miserable you get to be god.

you know the thing they did in inception with dreams and such well you can do that in real life, its called lucid dreaming.

yeah i see stuff in my dream in which eventually happens

i have a couple times

i dream shit and it comes real too its freaky

Everytime am going to take a very important Test, I always dream that am failing a test. O.o

 That is so true.  I only remember my dreams vaguely.  I haven’t had vivid dreams since childhood.  It seems like the older you get the less dreams or at least vivid dreams.

I’ve dreamed that I fell into a pond and couldn’t breath. I woke up gasping for air for the next 2 min.
The first day I got an alarm clock I dreamn’t that giant birds were flying over making those annoying alarm noises.
Last night I dreamt about some really weird sex video, then about me having powers to where If I could concentrate hard enough, I could set things on fire. My final dream last night consisited of a man who would mug grass (the stuff on lawns) from me and my ‘brothers’ (friends). So I made a plan to lure him into the open and then I shot and killed him.

hi,i was dreaming that i was having alot of pan in my right kneeit had becom sore and was swolen up. after some time it was unbearable pain ,nezt i was in hospital crying in pain with my husband.. some one said that they will put a cut so that all the infection can come out…. i was still crying holding my knee …then it bursted on its own and blood started to flow…..people around me told me that that blood is coming…. and then i opend my eyes.. i was lying on my bed ,holding my knee……no wound but actually paining so much that i could not even stand…….i cried with pain…….after some time the pain is no more there………pl tel me what it means

i had a dream were i was sitting outside with my gf then some how we were inside a closet makingout then a frickin clown cames and kills her so i ran but the all of a sudden it got in front of me and it threw up my girlfriend and she was alive and naked then we had sex and the clown disapeard

I had a deja-vu of a dream that was previously dreamt three times before it happened in real life.

i had a dream that a guy i like put his hand on my knee then when i woke up it felt like he was still holding my knee, like it was tingly. (oh and the dream felt VERY real)

I had a dream back in 2007> I woke up of my bed in my dream then I realize that I was dreaming, then I got up again in my dream and went the livingroom and realize that I was dreamin again<  this was happing probably like 4 more times it was like having multiple dreams at once I think I was trying to get to some sort of place< I dont kno ..lol I just cant forget about it

I always have dreams were I’m talking to someone and they’re in the middle of their sentence when they suddenly start screaming at me; like, “So I heard you were moving into a new apartment, that sounds like fun, just make sure you WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH” And then i realize that it’s my alarm clock barging in on my dream, happens all the time.

I had a dream where i was desperatly trying to get to a place with a friend but it felt like it was always moving. this indecates that i am running towards a goal but i may be running for a long time

I once dreamt that Freddy Kreuger was waiting outside my house and was trying to lure me outside with a piece of cake. D:

I’v compose music in my dreams. their would be nothing in front of me, just black, and i would be suspended in mid-air. all of a sudden music would start to play and i was the one who was making it.

i wasn’t you typical note strumming either. i’v created full on symphonies this way, but the only sad part is, is that i can never remember them.

anybody eles have this experience?

P.S.
i learned to play the guitar by ear, and i’m learning to play the piano by ear so i don’t know if this contributes to anything.  

You just described majority of my dreams….

i dream of being left alone by my family in my childhood. it never actually happened with me. but dream is often repeated..

apparently -in a dream- if you experience the motion of falling you immidiately wake up
i always get this!

Often people dream about what they desire most, even if they don’t know what they want most. Some things you may wake up and say “No! I do not want ____!” But sometimes secretly your brain does… It scares me, because I’ve had dreams about many people I do not want. But maybe at the time, I just couldn’t admit it to myself.

DOES THIS MEAN ANYTHING OR IS IT JUST COMPLETE RANDOMNESS? 
I had a dream where I was in a big futuristic museum/aquarium/zoo and I was walking through the halls (filled with supposedly extinct fish in tanks and cool artifacts) and there were tanks underneath my feet like floor tiles. Everything was a cool shade of turquoise or pure white. Then I entered a very large room, and in the front of the room, the whole wall was an tank holding some extinct, large, sea animal. I can’t remember what it was, I just remember it was large. Then off to the side, the place was selling cute little fluffy kittens, genetically altered to have the stripes and markings of white tigers. It was very strange. Then i picked one up, and it turned into a ladybug and I lost it somehow and began crying and searching desperately for it. And that’s all I remember before waking up. So whats the verdict?

i once had the weirdest and scary dream where for weeks i would stay in my school and slept there but whenever we went to class it always seemed like someone was screaming and me and 2 other people really wanted to know what happened so in the middle of the night we went to the class (for some reason it was open) and we heard the crying person again and we got super scared but i followed the sound and i knew the person was in the closet where they keep the teacher’s books so i opened it and i saw a baby that was really skinny and didn’t seem like he had eaten for weeks and i was really scared and started crying then i woke up i was i think 7 when i had this dream and i still don’t know what it means 

hey guys – i was wondering if somebody could help me out, i keep having a reoccurring dream and it’s really vivid. I’ll try to remember it as best as I can..

basically; i have my friends in my shack in the back garden and we are smoking marijuana and they are all just about to leave when all of the lights go off in the streets and all of the lights that were previously on in the houses (i live in a cul-de-sac/close) i go into my house and check the electricity and it’s not working, n’or the gas or water. People begin to come out of their houses, but they are all walking in the same manner, they are slouched and look asleep/dead/zombie (i couldn’t really make it out) so i take all of my friends into my house and we lock all of the doors (at this point in the dream I can physically feel my heart racing, I feel anticipation and I feel frightened) ten it goes blank for a bit and then I’m on a hill/field (can’t remember) with lots of vegetation – definitely in England – oak trees, stinging nettles, blackberry bushes etc and my friends are no longer with me but I am with hundreds or people. I’m the leader of them all, somebody (i don’t know who) has assigned me to look after them and I feel a certain duty as I watched all of these people sit in the field and wonder what is happening to their country and why their brains or whatever have been ‘taken over’. Then it goes blank for a bit. I remember seeing a glimpse of a volcano too, but nothing more of it. I’m now in this old woman’s house, i’ve never seen her before but I can tell you her exact features – like I’ve known her all my life. She has a husband too, but in the dream he was gone for some unknown reason, i suspect the ‘zombies’ must have gotten him as she was very sad about him. So I get the woman to pack two items but I can’t remember what they are (couldn’t have been that significant) I grab her hand and we get in a car (baring in mind I am 15 years old at the present) I drive us to my house but my house isn’t mine anymore, it’s a house I have never seen before and there are people in it that I have never seen any of the people taking refuge in my house or shed either. I remember all of the people were very visable, they all had senses of dress, men had stubble and some didn’t, i knew whether women had died their hair, i knew their personalities, i knew everything about all of these people in my (the house that i’ve never seen before) house yet I’ve never seen them before in my life. I cannot remember anything more apart from the dream ends positively, and the ‘zombies’ are cured but I don’t remember how. 

I woke up feeling sad and shocked, even though it ended positively – somebody please help me analyse this dream! I’ve been having it for as long as I can remember and it’s beginning to scare me.

one time i dreamt that i was in my living room, where my dad asked me why i recorded the boondoks show on the tv, i think i shrugged, he asked again with this weird look on his face, and i was standing silent for a moment, and wile i was waking up i actually say “because i felt like it” out loud.

I set my alarm to a dog bark the other day because my actual dogs bark wakes me up. So I thought I’d give it a try.. so there I was in my dream and all of a sudden my dog had come up to me and started barking  in my dream, I thought it was weird only to realise it was actually my alarm which had been going off for half an hour and I hadn’t even realised!

i had the weridest dream where i looked outside my window and  there was a wave/ flood coming towards me like in the bible and that it killed everyone. It looked so real, the strange part was that i had   similar dreams like these 3x times already. its crazy about people saying the world is gonna end & stuff, ahh hopefully it doesn’t turn into deja vu!. 

well ,yeah dreams are the part of night !! -:)xD

Last night i had a dream about meeting my fav boy group “mindless behavior” and thats the only part i remeber most of my dreams come true “deja vu” i really really really hope this one is deja vu”

had an amazing orgasm in my dreams a few days ago. Happens before a i get my period . Amazing lol 

I found myself with a very lucid recurring dream that went on for months. It was regarding my wife and her fidelity. One morning i woke her up and told her that I wasn’t accusing her of anything, but i have been having this dream and perhaps if i talk about it….who knows….maybe it wont come back. The crazy part is that she broke down crying and said that my dream was 100% accurate…..time frame, people, locations…..EVERYTHING!

She had cheated on me several times about a year prior. There were no signs. Noone else knew. It was her dirty little secret.

We are still together and healing because I love my family more than anything and would never allow it to be broken.

How and why is a recurring dream so lucid and accurate without a touch of pregognition?

I had a dream where I met one of my favorite
bands lead singer. He gave me his autograph, then I hugged him, then we had sex
in his car >.<
GERARD WAY!!!
Pretty awesome :3

That’s the power of your mind actually lifting you up just enough so you can actually fall back down on your bed it happens to me all the time just don’t freak out cuz then you’ll make it happen more often search it up on the net you’ll see

That’s CRAZY!!! I wish i knew what it was like to live in some sort of mystical three dimensional universe! Oh wait, I do. And I don’t recall ever having not dreamed in 3D either. In fact the only two-dimensional perceptual experiences I’ve had were either the result of some exceptional acid or dmt.

Hi I disagree with number 4 where you stated that in our dream we only see faces we already know. Well, long time ago thrice I dreamt of military guys marching and they turned their heads when they saw me. I don’t know who these guys were. A week after the 1st dream, I received a snail mail from an officer who was in a training camp. Then another mail a week after the 2nd dream (same drea) came from another officer who was in a training camp. A week after the 3rd dream, I met another military guy who later became my husband. I met all these guys in person months after our mail exchanges but I have met them before  those dreams occurred.

I had a dream someone kept shoving something up my bum and I was running away but couldn’t get away then when I got really painful my bum was sore and my bed was ice cold :- S

I have orgasms in my dreams. I am an active lucid dreamer so I have perfected the ability to wake up mid orgasm and I finish the orgasm awake.  It is amazing!  My husband gets a little jealous, since he sometimes gets woken up by it. My dream-gasms are generally longer and a lot stronger then regular ones.

I had a reoccurring dream that involved jumping off a roadway and I hit the ground, broke my legs, it was very painful, and I had to crawl to get away from the bad guys. 

I dreamt I was in a computer game to start with
and I killed someone for killing me
(threw me into lava)
and then I was on some big around the world tour going to gaming conventions
I pulled out my phone to do the whole facebook check into places thing and it said “Places Nearby (Near Beirut)”

about 5 years ago i dreamed that i was at a waterpark with a strange little girl and we were going down a slide a few months ago i went to a waterpark with my 4 YEAR OLD FEMALE COUSIN for her birthday and she made me go down the slide with her as we walked to the slide i had a strange feeling of deja vu and for about 5 minutes after that i knew exactly what was going to happen because i somehow remembered that dream. it was the craziest experience of my life i still have no idea wtf happened because i remembered FACES OF PEOPLE THAT WE WALKED BY!!!! how the hell is this possible

The other night I had a dream were I was looking at myself and the whole dream was black and white other then the two things which was a dress I was wearing and an apple in my hand both of witch were red!! But the you would think that something like this would be a little creepy or spooky but it was actually a good dream! I found two things about this dream strange though!!
1. I normally dream like I’m seeing trough my own eyes! not looking at myself !
2. All my dreams are in color! so y was this one in black and white other than those two things?

i snore but i still have dreams

Two or three noghts ago i dream i was in my house alone and natsis were trying to kill me..Last night, i dream that a stranger was trying to shoot me and my boyfriend but he always missed..what might this mean?

I have had several dreams for about five years that my brother gets caught in a tornado. This past month he lost control of his truck and flipped several times. Do you think some how my subconscious was telling me something or am I just reading to much into it.

I read above that we only dream of faces we know, thats not true as last night i dreamt of a girl that i have never seen before. in one of my other many different dreams i climbed up an old wooden set of stairs, they didnt seem to be that high until i reached the top. i tried to get back down but then realised it was way to steep and way too high to get back down, i was scared that i would fall. i was calling out to all the people below to help me,but i was up to high for anyone to hear. i woke myself up in a sweat because it scared me so bad. i also dreamt that i was casually walking down the street massaging shampoo all through my hair, people where looking at me weird. wtf??? lol!

i have been having deja vu dreams since i was little, i can also feel energy around me when there is no one there. my grandma use to say if u wake up with scratches a demon tryed to get you when you were sleep but i don’t know about all that. i do want to know why i wake up sometimes with scratches and how to channel my dreams

Most people I talk to always say “I can never remember my dreams! I can only like remember two from my whole life!” It’s really strange, because I’ve never had this problem. In fact, I’m exactly the opposite – I remember maybe half of my dreams or more, at least for a few days after I’ve had them. If they’re really interesting I write them down, because I’m a writer and they can give me some pretty good story ideas.
I remember one dream I had that was hilarious when I woke up. I dreamed I was being kidnapped and they’d put me in the back of a van, except the back of the van had no doors, only a blanket covering the opening. It was stiflingly hot in the van and I could barely breathe. At that moment the van jerked and I went rolling, and my head poked out of the blanket. I could get fresh, cool air outside of the van. Then suddenly I was in my theatre classroom, and again it was so hot I couldn’t breathe. Then I woke up and realized I was buried under a mountain of blankets, with my face shoved into the pillow. It was funny realizing why everything was so hot in my dreams, and why sticking my head past the blanket in the van had let me breathe cool air.

Oh, I’ve also had lucid dreams too. I’m still working on being able to have one almost every night, but I remember my first real one. I realized it was a dream, so I went around telling all my friends “You’re not real! You’re just in my dream! Hahaha!” Then I flew around a playground.
Another lucid dream I had was when I dreamed I was trying to go to sleep. I did the technique where you hold your nose and try to breathe in, and if you can, then you’re dreaming. I was able to breathe, and I thought “Sweet! This is a dream!” I remembered all the stuff I could do in a lucid dream from reading on a website, so I started trying to teleport. Eventually I managed it and ended up in the desert. There were little snack stands set up everywhere. I decided to see how well I could control my dreams, so I walked up to a stand and took some chips and a soda without paying, but mentally ordered the vendor (who happened to be one of the best singers and nicest people in my theatre) not to do anything about it, and walked away. Sure enough, she didn’t do anything. Then I decided to have some fun, so I scattered policemen everywhere and made her call for their help. But I made them stay where they were, and walked right through them without them doing anything to catch me. It was hilarious, controlling my dream.

Okay, I know I keep commenting a lot, but just one more thing. I once had my dream carry over into real life, kind of. I can’t remember my exact dream, but when I woke up there was a huge swarm of bees in my room. Terrified, I hid everything except my eyes under the covers, so I could watch them. They were buzzing everywhere in my room, and then suddenly they all flew over to my closet door and landed on it. Now the whole door was covered with bees quietly shifting around. It took me a few minutes to realize that I’d been hallucinating the whole thing, and there were no bees.

=))

i have had dreams that i have gotten in fights or something and i will hav bruises the next morning where i was punched in the dream

No.15: I’m glad it’s not just me

That’s crazy because I had a dream similar to this. I was in some kind of amusement park and was walking around. Everything was purple so I’m guessing it was night time. Then all of a sudden a black octopus lands on top of me and I couldn’t breathe.

The weird thing is I stayed inside of the dream until i almost died then I woke up with a black shirt over my head or something gasping for air. The was the first time in my life where I actually almost died. This happened years ago.

I had a dream last night where my fiancee and I had had a baby but we both worked a lot but together and so had a live in baby sitter(i guess we were doing very well) and so we get home one night and the baby was like 6 months old and could crawl and talk and almost walk and i needed to change him but i guess neither of us ever had changed him cuz working and she was gone and i had no idea where the wipes were! so him and i go looking for like an hour and cant find that or baby powder and she wouldnt answer and was so embarrassed since didnt know where they were cuz was our baby and had never changed him but the baby finally remembered where she had been taking him to change and found them, but only one wipe was there and no powder.

I had a dream like that except I was on a ladder. It started falling and it felt like I couldnt let go of it. I hit the ground and it felt like I was dying slowly till I woke up gasping like I just came back to life. ♥

I had a dream that i was driving and i couldnt control my car and it felt sooo real but i just couldnt control it and i freaked and woke up.. apperently i was sleeping on my dad’s old steering wheel

I had a dream I cut my brothers foot off and forgot I did it, then we went to target

Yes, but when I’m sick I dream really fast and it’s scary, the scariest o e was when my parents made a team (our house was floating in space) to go around the world in 1 second and they kept going around then stop and go again

when i was six i had a dream that it was my seventh birthday and i got a unicorn snowglob. my family and i were hanging you in he garage (for some reason) and i was playing with my new ‘toy’. then a bald guy in a white full body jumpsuite came in a went ‘arrrrrggg’ like a pirate he had a gun and killed us all. then i can back to life in some play place it was all hazy and orange and my class was sitting there. they all ignored me like i wasnt even there and my teacher was talking to them. i dont remember the rest i just know i have always remember it. like a scar.

I was just wondering do you guys dream from your perspective, or is it like your watching yourself? I dream from my perspective, but all my friends watch themselves in their dreams so I was just curious…

sometimes my dreams just turned into reality  and minutes later i realized it and say…. ” Oh sh*t i dreamt of that thing”!!! 
for instance, Once,i dreamt that my neighbor got arrested…and the following day he did get arrested by the police! eew..weird!!

1. Has anybody had a dream that they were going down stairs and then the stairs go away and you wake up and feel like your falling?

2.Has anyone ever been in a place and then like the person in your dream like blinks and then you are in a different place?

ya, whenever something good is gonna happen in my dreams, i wake up

One dream, i was apparently bit by a zombie, and we were driving somewhere. I realized i was turning to a zombie, so i asked if we could pull over so they could tie me up so i dont kill everyone. The really neat part was that when i was turning, i could feel my heartbeat get faster, and the light on the buildings were like zombification loading bars. Then, out of nowhere, i yelled, “Its fine everyone! Im just dreaming… wait, Im dreaming?”
It was awesome

i once went to sleep and about an hour later i woke up and was paralyzed from the waist down. it was aweful, i didnt know what was happenning. i was only 9 yrs old, and it lasted almost 12 hrs!

i disagree ur 4th point.i have seen new faces in my dream.even i was surprised about that.

Today I dreamed about a guy that was shooting arrows at me and I was running trying to scape. I went to a bridge that was almost cover with a fence and the arrows were still almost hitting me. They were landing right infront of me.

omg when i real about being paralyzed while dreaming i flipped out becouse i woke up once and i couldnt move for like 5 seconds and i thought i was having a stroke or something.

i dreamed that my boyfriend kept stealing my tomato slice which was also my blanket, needless to say i woke up extremely angry and cold XD

i’ve had many dreams where i die and then just wake up

Today, i had a dream about me and jay-z we were sitting togehter and talking about something, but i cant remember about what we were talking about, there was so many thing thaat i can’t remember, But hey trust me, it was so real .. Like if you had the same dream

I actually took it as… Since men have some aggressive dreams… Like men fighting, well it have to involved men

i fell asleep to a song called “dance with the devil” and i dreamed that the devil/demon dragged me out of bed…well first whispered in my ear from behind me.. i dont remember what he said but he dragged me out and up the stairs and onto the middle of my hallway with my dog halfway in the doorway just looking at me. when i woke up i ran upstairs into the hall way and my dog was in the dooryway just looking at me..strange huh?

Is it weird if I can break tht paralasis…cuz ik that feeling when ur body won’t let u move but I take a deep deep breath almost like firebenders from avatar the last airbender do before they attackbut anyway i then just push and it breaks…I can do this willingly…iv also been told I’m more in touch with my body then most ppl…so was wondering if it was connected at all rlly?

I’ve keep having these dreams where I’m in my house – although it’s not really my house – these big old rambling homes with attics and basements and porches and lots of space and I’m some how trying to protect either my home or the people in it – from bears, neighbors, strangers – but I can’t get to them or save them – I run from room to room, window to window trying to figure it out. Lately, there have been sink holes or construction holes near or around the house – once bears came up from the sink hold and once a child was in the hole that was filling with water – In the dream, I’m sreaming and it actually is vocalized while I’m dreaming – not quite a scream but a moaning, howling kind of sound. I can hear it and know I’m dreaming and making the noises but can’t stop – the problem is I remember them – some quite vivedly even thought it was years ago – anyone???

I have had dreams where I am holding my breath and I can’t stop. In my dream, I am suffocating until I wake up and gasp for air. It’s kinda scary. 

i visit a town frequently in my dreams.. i can navigate throughout the town.. i can even remember how to get around while awake at times… judging by the clothes and vehicles it looks like im in the 90s.. im almost always driving a black bronco.. i have no idea where this town actually is, or if it even exists. That being said.. there is another place i visit often that i randomly found in waking life while traveling.. dreams are weird and life is wild.

does anyone ever have a dream of an image and then like a month later u see it in real life… e.g. i remember being in maths and everything in the room and the questions on the sheet, i had seen before and then it felt really weird as i kept recognising things as i looked around the classroom.

my dream was that someone was trying to kill me but i didnt know the person i kept running but he always found me my other after that is about me being in a house and these people wanted to get in and do something so i locked the only ways they could get in and soon let them in then i woke up 

it means you are at a position you should not be but you find the place too comfortable

that means there is going to be a deception in your life. someone you trust is going to deceive you… just be careful

wow, these are interesting and weird facts about dreams. Thanxs for letting me know. Now i know…lol

Mine too 

i dream almost every night that my dad kills me in many different ways. except for one night it wasnt him and i didnt recognize the man. i tried to fight back so hard and i stabbed him and stapped him but he just laughed and it wld leave marks but no blood or injuries. it was horrible. i almost always die.

I had a dream and I could breath under water and aerial (the meridad) and Justin beiver were there and Justin liked aerial and then they went off and got married ………… What does that mean???

i had a dream that I went to a rave with eminem, then we both got really drunk and for some reason started fighting zombies

Had a dream that my dad got shot and I saw everything , and I was uncontrollably crying. What does that mean.!?

One time I had a dream I wasat my friends house afor a party nd I saw someone I liked thee and my shirt keep dissipering and it was 2012 in my dream does hat mean anything?

One time I had this dream that this Korean Pop star was singing karaoke with my best friend’s aunt in my basement. It was awesome :3 I sometimes get confuse with my dreams if its a memory or a dream.

i had the wierdest dream i was kissing my best friends brother.  i woke woundering if i should tell her or not. i decided it would be best if i kept it to myself.

omg that has happened to me before its so creepy!!!!!!

I dreamed that i was running and fell into a hole and then when I woke up my legs where 180 degrees verticle.

To go with #14..I don’t know if snoring means that, but I most surely know that if you cough or sneeze, then you are definitely not dreaming. I don’t have an exact place to reference, but I’m sure it’s easy to find if you look it up. =)

same here when i was a kid and sick, my dream is somewhat in slowmotion and then everything will be in fast mode and so on… it makes me feel worst. 

Just a few days ago, I saw two me’s in my dream. One was dating justin bieber (the last guy I wanna have a relationship with in this life!!) and the other one was just trying to understand why “we” were dating him and how the other me could do that to us  

I had a dream my ex-boyfriend died. I remember I woke up crying. I called my sister to tell her what I saw in my dream and she insisted that it was nothing to worry about my subconscious because I had a sense of loss when we broke up. A couple of months after this dream his mother called me to tell me her son had died in an accident. I couldn’t believe it! I saw this happen and felt like if I could’ve spoken to him just once maybe it could have been prevented. Why did I see this in my dream? It scared me…

Inception is a movie but the meaning is to put an idea in somebody’s mind but you do it while they are in a lucid dream. Lucid means that they are controlling it. The movie is great you should watch it. It may take a few times of watching to start to understand. Its my favorite movie.

I just woke up from having a very lucid dream.
I dreamed that I told this beautiful girl how I felt about her and we ended going on a romantic cruise it felt so real and vivid.  Then I woke up alone.  I’m 23 and single by the way.
And the girl in the dream Ive never seen her before. But in the dream it was as if we were soul mates. 

I really wished it was true I felt like crying because it was just a dream. I didn’t want the dream to end.

I once dreamed that i was in line for an autograph with my ex-friend.The line was really long but when i saw the “famous person” (I’m not naming names) he was wearing sunglasses,his feet was kicked up and he was relaxing in a car in the drivers seat!!

just tonight, i dreamed that i was in a van with all of my family members and a guy that i liked. the guy was the first one to get inside the car, he sat on the middle row. initially, we were sitting beside each other – him by the window, and i in the middle seat. then, my mom asked me to change places with her – she sat beside him and i had to sit at the last row beside my dad. what does this mean? i haven’t talked to this guy for a long time now… pls help 

When I was a kid I had the same dream every night for a week in a row. I’d be sitting in my house and there were people over ( I can’t remember who ) and I got upset for some reason. So I go upstairs to be alone and I bring this toy lantern of mine up with me. I go into my brothers room and it’s pitch black and the lantern is working but it can’t penetrate the darkness. All of the sudden I scream turn to run for the door, but it won’t open and then something grabs me and pulls me back. I’ve never had it since then, thank God.

Oh, and I used to have these dreams were I’d be in the school yard, and some huge Titan things were coming towards me. They’re the size of skyscrapers and I try to run but I can’t. My whole body feels incredibly heavy, and I’m running as slow as a snail.

I haven’t had ( or atleast remembered) nightmares in forever.

When I dream I never see faces and I never use to dream in colour.
When I was little I had a reoccurring dream that if I went to my basement there would be an old man who would wrap me up like they do to flowers in the store. It was scary at the time now it’s funny.

Well i had a dream that a wanted to go to Daniels party and it ended when i got there i started crying and then Daniel came to my table and he held my hand and told me to meet him at 8:00 on Saturday and that was my drama rehearsel i started thinking of a way to meet him and my mom woke me up.

One time I dreamed that I could breathe underwater and it was so realistic. I swore I could breathe underwater in real life too. Then I tried it. I failed.

I have heard that when ever you feel like your falling in a dream
It means that your bodies soul is snapping back into place
Like you left your bodie just for a little bit… It’s called
Astral Projection. It has happened to me a few times. It’s the weirdest
Feeling in the world

one time i had a dream where i was at my childhood daycare and the sirens for tornados went off and we had to sit against a wall facing some windows by the entrance and  looked outside ,its all dark and cloudy but with a long row of mammoths,as long as the eye can see,coming towards the daycare.I had another dream where i was at the little kids playground at the same place and there was a tornado in the middle of it and everyone went inside and i hid under the slide

I dream about walking across a main road or motor way and suddenly my legs become paralyzed and i cant move and there are speeding cars all aroundme 
Its pretty freaky, huh

me and my bf where taking about getting married and that night i had a dream how i found a three carat yellow diamond ring and my mom and some other lady where chasing me trying to steal it from me! lol

I had this dream that I was swimming in the ocean and all of the sudden a big ass shark came and ate me, he didn’t chew he just like swallowed me whole and then I lived in his stomach for 42 years. But I dreamt everyday of that forty two years in one night. And at the end of the dream I woke up 5 times. The first time I woke up and I was on a boat, then I woke up on top of a skyskrpaer then I was in bed with my boyfriend and then I was in a big empty white space. And then I actually woke up. It was possibly the craziest dream I have ever had. And it scared the shit out of me. >.<

Does anyone ever have dreams that keep changing from one dream to another in an instant, or a dreams that start off awesome but than changes into a nightmare? like if you do.

so, ive had this dream, where im walking through almost like a national park. its very small, mulch covers the grounds, and when in the middle there are four different paths to take. i always go straight and it leads me to an apartment complex. what does this mean? ive had this dream a few times now. 

i dreamt my ex boyfriend was cutting my back open and putting sweet and gems in the holes and stitching it back up with strawberry laces

I dreamt I was in my fathers car with my friends, my friend was driving (we’re underage) picked up magic mushrooms from my dealer, then my friend drives off! doesn’t let me pay! everyone in the car starts ignoring me.. then I realise, wait why are you driving?! oh no.. this is my dads car.. stop stop! Get out! they didn’t listen.. then suddenly they’re out of the car.. Gone completely.. I was standing outside the car it was on the side of a street on the corner of a main road.. I freaked out realising that everyone in the world for some reason was trying to kill me and that the car was attracting attention to myself, so I got in the car and hesitated to attempt driving. I eventually got to my destination.. not easily.. on the way random people were trying to kill me. Not because I was in the car.. apparently I did something and apparently it has to do with Skyrim so when I got home.. which wasn’t actually my home I knocked into a woman with a pram in my backyard, I said shit sorry hoping she didn’t recognise me … then realised why is there a woman in my backyard.. oh she’s here to kill me. There were others too. I tried to turn off my xbox, the source! but it didn’t do anything, I called in dad saying everyone was trying to kill me .. he didn’t do much.. just lit up a cigg

When I was little, whenever I dream that it’s night time and realize it … everyone turns into ghosts :S

I had a dream that i was on a Sinking ship the size and look of the titanic that was sinking in land where my old tech center was. Then suddenly i was swimming in a swamp to get to my friends house in teh middle of a swamp. The swamp was all brown. I was more swimming in mud than swamp. When i got there he was peeing on pregnancy tests because he thought his girlfriend was pregnant. I told him “i think your doing it wrong” in a sarcastic tone and he replied as he threw a test into his pile of other tests “no dude just let me keep trying” ( typing this i realize for the first time that this friend was a friend from my tech center. I never connected the two until now.)  We were in his basement. It was empty of furniture. Then suddenly i was back on this sinking land ship. As if the whole swamp house pregnancy  scare was a flashback. I was walking through the halls of the ship. water was dripping from the ceiling and it was very dark. The walls the carpet and the ceiling were a really dark shade of magenta. IT looked very very fancy though. Suddenly a guy in a yeti costume started chasing me . I knew he was in a costume because i could see the zipper. But i still ran. I ran into one of the cabins and stood on a desk and reached into the air vent. I grabbed a wild boar. I turned to the yeti man (who was standing behind me patiently.) and handed him the pig. he replied “all i want is love” and walked away. somehow i made it to the deck of the ship. That was still sinking. People were jumping off the bow of the ship but since we where over concrete they just splattered on the pavement. But people kept jumping. I think it was early morning. There where limo’s driving around the side of the ship trying to save people. like life rafts. While waiting on the deck i befriended a mouse named Hector and his wife. Then we got  into a limo and drove down the road. we made small talk and then i noticed a Giant bridge standing tall in the middle of nowhere. It looked identical to pictures ive seen of the golden gate bridge. It was so big i couldnt see either side of the bridge. Then we saw a helicopter flying beneath the bridge the long ways. So we followed the helicopter and we saw a battlescene. A old farmhouse with a old car infront. And everything was on fire or shot up. There was a bloody guy leaning on the radiator of teh car. A guy dressed as a cross between rambo and batman ( Batman pants. cape. Bat hat or helmet or whatever. No shirt. A bandoleer of bullets. NO sleeves. and a machinegun.) walks out of the barn, walks up to the guy infront of the car and shoots him. Then i look behind me and i see a film crew. We find out they are Filming a new film called rambat. they continued to film even though my limo was parked infront of the camera. They gave us a bumper sticker and thats all i remember. 

i had a dream where the sun was rapidly enlarging, eventually consuming the earth, and whe had about 24 hours left.

i hope that dream isn’t real…

but why sometyms the dreams are wet???if they are related to orgasm??

i know this sounds alittle strange.. idk whats really going on with me but it almost seems like iv been able to control my dreams and every aspect of it. i can go to sleep and tell myself im going to a certain place tonight, or i can go and visit who i want, not like they can react with me but i could go to their house as long as i know where its at. i can wake up any time i want. if i get myself in a tight spot or a bad situation in a dream either i fly away or i wake up. then once i wake up i can put myself back to sleep almost instantly and go back to what i was dreaming about or change it if i want. i was asleep earlier for what seemed like hours but it was only 20 min. anyways i was just wondering if anyone else does this. im extremely fascinated by it and am most deff starting to like my dreams even more so than reality.

My dreams scare the crap out  of me. They are insanely weird and sometimes i dream of the next day on a different continent then it shows up on TV the next day EX: the earthquake in japan. I also have feelings like that in the day and the are very common ex: I knew i was going to be seated next to this kid today and i was… he is weird.

Once I dreamed I was a girl named Amy who was supposed to go into the future in order to save the present…but I’m not Amy. What does that mean? 

here’s a suuuper long dream i had:
so i was playing this weird made up game with my family. on my team was me, my sister, my mom, and this really annoying girl in my class. on the other team was my mom’s clone, my sister’s clone and my clone. but my clone had a giant see hollow see through purple meatball as a head. it couldn’t understand anything u said unless it came out in a strand of spaghetti and it fir around it’s meatball head. oh, and my dad was the ref. r u with me so far? it gets weirder.  ok so my team’s “territory” was like a pool and the other team’s was mountains. and the mountains had my social studies text book writing on them. i have no idea what was happening on my team’s side because i was the one always running like a mile to the other team’s place. so anyway there was a big mountain that was almost straight up and down that u had to slide down. my dad was just sitting there being the ref. to slide down the mountain u had to hold onto this fence thingy and turn urself around. once u were turned aound u had to slide down then run back to ur teams place. so i kept running (with the annoying girl from my class trailing behind me) and i kept sliding (every time i slid she disapeared) so every time i tried to turn around it was rlly hard so my dad kept saying “bee careeful! bee careeful!” yeah it was weird. so r u still with me? ok so i kept doing that and then i was about to go down but then there was this mom and she sent her two twin kids down the mountain in two garbage can lids like sledding. then this girl ran down. then i went down in a ship for some reason. ok so then my sister was just standing there looking through a telescope (even tho it was daytime) with some random ppl. then i was about to collide with her but i “parked” the boat. then we got out and went down, realizing we forgot to read two pages of the mountain writing thingy. but then we went down and apparently there was water at the bottom of the mountain and we went into it. then there ws this thing tht i made up in my dreams tht im sure i dreamed about before bc i knew it was called a sea minnow. weird. so anyway it looks like a teletubby with a green scaly suit, a looong tail, and five fingers on each hand but one finger looks like ET’s. so it hands u a baseball every time u see it and u have to play catch w it. so me and my sis r playing catch and my mom comes down and says to everyone “who wants to stop playing that game and just play with the sea minnow?” so everyone is playing catch now. and then my grandpa comes out of nowhere and has a bigger ball we can play with. (oh by the way the annoying girl is gone by then)  and then we start playing w the big ball. then my mom accidently throws the ball over my grandpa’s head into a cave so he goes to get it and he comes back and he’s like “i’m gonna throw this far! this is gonna be a good one!” and then he throws it and it lands like four feet in front of him. and tht’s kinda where it ended. weird right? can anyone explain what it means?

i see my guinea pigs dream sometimes. they look like theyre reading and they’re ears flap. sometimes they make noises and move their feet. it’s soooooo cute!!!!

i dreamed i was on a boat and they knew they shouldn’t sail it bc they waves were too rocky but they did and the boat tipped over TWICE! the second time my sister was like don’t go underwater you’ll get pulled by the boats force! but i ignored her and then she saved my by stretching her arm and pulling me up. when i was going up i heard her say “just a thousand more feet and u’ll be up!” then  took a breath underwater but i didn’t tell er bc i felt bad bc she saved me but i didn’t need to be. but then we swam to the island we were supposed to go to and it looked like this boardwalk i go to every year and then i saw my friend and there were like groups and she was the leader f her group and then i saw these boys messing around in this little kiddy pool right by the “entrance” of the island. it was weird. and u know what’s weirder? my favorite movie of all time is The Titanic. hmmmmmm…..

Where are these facts coming from and what are their sources? What is the research behind these ‘facts’? I have seen this posted all over the internet and one thing missing seems to missing constantly are sources for the information.

I was really into one direction so one night I dreamed that Niall
Horan was my best friend and Liam Payne was in love with me and he asked me out on a night and it felt so real

My latest dream was were I woke up in my dream and realized I had a strange fungus growing on the right side of my face, I was so sad because I realy care for my face. A woman told me that it was due to some alergic reaction and that is why I kept getting it. I realized then that it was true, this had not been the first time I had gotten this during my sleep. subconsciously, I knew I had had this same dream repeat before. When I finaly woke up, I realized that my right side had been irritaded by a teddy bear I was sleeping on. I was so exited to realize it was just a horrible dream and my face was still soft as a baby’s butt!!!! <3

heehee that was funny :3

This often happens to me: in my dreams at some point i want to look at something (clock to see the time ect) and when i open my eyes it’s all white, so white it hurts my eyes and it gives me a headache & i can’t see anything. I feel a bit dizzy, sometimes i have to lie down, wherever i am.
I keep trying and keep fighting but i just can’t see anything.
It’s not a nightmare, i don’t feel sraced and there’s no danger, it’s just so very white and it hurts to open my eyes.

I have no idea what this means. Maybe it could be kind of “reliving” being born in a weird way?

I wear glasses and contacts but my dreams are never blurry, they are always clear, distant things included, even though I am near-sighted.

Real-life Final Destination???

i had a dream that the next month there will be a tsunami and the next moth japan happened

i had a dream in which i was always feeling sleepy and could barely open my eyes before dozing again….this kept on happening until i woke up 

They say that most dreams are negative but for a long time now I’ve only had wonderful dreams about this man. Multiple ones where it is us and there is an intense feeling of mutual love, there have been dreams of us just cuddling, or going on adventures, I’m so in love with him. And I actually know him in real life, and he’s amazing and very perfect. But he doesnt know I have feelings for him. But he is in every one of my dreams.

One time I had a dream where I was asleep. All I can remember of the dream is seeing myself sleeping (it was a third-person dream).

I dreamed that my dad went to his country in Ecuador nd for some reason he went and drove alone but yet me and my mom were there but also still in the US. He stops on the side of the road next to some woods and all of a sudden he get shot, I see his body nd not only is he dead shot but it looks like he has been mauled or chewed up on one side of his body. Then it’s back to me finding out about his death in the united states then for some reason I go to the empire state building looking for Santa Claus but his elfs don’t let me to all the way up in the elevator nd I have to stop at a floor an I find my Spanish teacher Wich says she wants to go to Chile nd then I start telling her about my dad and I start to cry. Nd that’s it I wake up.

When I was younger and I used to wet the bed (we all did), I would always be going to the bathroom in my dream when I woke up and found myself pissing in real life. Also, occasionally in my dream I speak and my voice sounds amplified, and then I wake up. I’d been saying it aloud and it woke me up. :p

Another interesting FACT about dreams:
What you eat can affect whether you dream and how/what you dream.

you should tell the man that u have dreams about him and if u really have feelings for him u should tell him

i have a dream every year on the same day of the year (june 23) since i was a child and its the same dream its me in my bedroom asleep and i wake up and go open my closet door and there’s a portal so i go through it and end up at my great grandma’s house in her back room and there’s a small bathroom door that looks like a closet so i go to the door and open it and i have to live in there for a whole year and then after a whole year has went by in the dream i run as fast as i can back to the portal to take me back to my bedroom (the reason i run back is because the house is infested with monsters and if they saw u they get u) what does this dream mean can anyone please tell me?? thanks:))

it is normal to stop breathing a very short time in our sleep. i also had such a dream once or twice

I dreamt that I went back in time to stop myself from accidentally killing my friend, but went too far and ended up at September 11th 2001. I tried to stop it but the U.S general I spoke to said he’d only help me if I beat him in a race. He stretched his arms out and made plane noises and started running but I tripped over, so in the end I just blew up one of the planes mid-flight to at least save one of the towers. As I was falling I thought about the butterfly effect and was happy because I probably wouldn’t end up killing my friend in this timeline, so I’d actually accomplished my original mission. I fell straight into the mouth of a shark and woke up.

i once dreamed that i was dancing with my “wife” to a famous song but i just couldn’t get a look at her face.  i later heard that song playing while i was out with a girl and it reminded of that dream.  we ended up getting married and have a baby on the way!  don’t discount your dream.  this woman may still be out there and dreaming of you…

sometimes when i dream, real life incorporates into them. like lets say i told a joke to one of my friends last week and thought it was really funny, i would somehow remember it and bring it into my dream and tell everyone in my dream world. it’s really accurate and kind of creepy. even conversations… like if i need to continue a real life conversation or need to talk to a certain someone, i’ll bring it up in my dreams and we’ll continue the conversation there. my life and my dreams are very intertwined and very lucid. it’s sometimes very hard to tell them apart.

great help for my informative speech about dreams!

I had a dream a few nights ago that me and my boyfriend were at a holiday park and women kept getting stabbed. It was night and I couldn’t see anything and kept losing my boyfriend. In the end, it was only the two of us left along with the hotel receptionist. We locked ourselves in her office when I saw a gun on the side. Suddenly the lights went off and a i heard a gun fire. Thinking it was a trick all along and the receptionist was the killer I turned the lights on to try and get the gun. It was then that I saw my boyfriend, pointing the gun at me and the recptionist dead on the floor. He killed me and i woke up crying. It took me a while to realise it was a dream, as he was lying next to me in bed and i was still pettrified of him.

i lost my friend over the summer and ive had a few dreams about him, the first one was him haunting my friends house mainly his room,as a kinda friendly demon . the second one was we were all at my friends house getting ready for a party and he was their as a ghost just hanging out with all of us and we all went over to his house and partied with him even tho he was a ghost

whoa thats soo cool.

I’ve never shared this before.

In 1997-ish I dreamt about this man named Ben. He was a friend of my (now) husband, Rian. I met Ben several times and briefly chatted with him here and there. My husband used to have breakfast with a group of friends every Saturday morning for years, this man Ben was the center of attention. One night (a Friday) I had a dream I was in this kitchen I had never seen before in someone’s home, but it almost felt like one of those vintage, not much changed, church basement type kitchens. The door was swung open to the living room, there were people all there, men and women, etc… all almost soft focus in the background. I was next to the “island”, a tall, farmer’s kitchen table and on the other side of me was the old percolator coffee pot. I still remember the pale toothpaste yellow green of the kitchen. It looked like it had been painted and repainted over the years without the benefit of sanding or priming.

I felt like I didn’t belong there. It was odd but not scary. Until I heard a man’s raspy voice, “Hey kid, down here.” Ben is UNDER the high Kitchen table, crouched. “Don’t let ‘em see me’.” He says in his thick Boston accent. He looked like the Ben I knew, rail thin, short, with a shock of prematurely silver hair. I shut the swinging door carefully.

I asked him why he didn’t want anyone to see him. He looked at me like I was a little slow on the uptake. I then said something like, “Well, what is this place? Where are we?” He answered me with something along these lines (can’t remember exact words): “It’s my wake.” “Your WHAT?” “Sssh – you know it’s my wake. I just wanted to show ya.”

I was really shocked. I think I didn’t know how to react, and now I can’t remember any more of our somewhat brief exchange. He did get up from the table (after he said the wake thing he freaked me the hell out crouching under the damned table – by the way this was a couple years before Sixth Sense – when I saw that scene it creepily reminded me of this dream). He ended up standing next to me (we were about the same height – 5′ 4″ – he was a short Boston Irish guy)!

The door had a small square window in it like one on an old fashioned kitchen door. We looked through it and he was laughing and talking about how everyone looked out there, like, “look at all these mooks out here, you gotta get a load of this” type thing – which was the way he spoke. He was active in the AA 12 step community (I’m not) and he was very much like this with other people, busting their chops, criticizing other people, very ex-drunk (his own words) type behavior.

I woke up that morning really early, around 5AM and I woke Rian up as I got out of bed. I told him the story as it seemed wacky and I wanted him to tell Ben that morning at breakfast. I thought he’d get a kick out of it.

We eventually fell back asleep. We were awoken by the sound of the telephone after 6:30 by Rian’s ex-girlfriend and Ben’s best female friend. He spoke to her for a couple minutes, sounding somber, and thanked her, etc before hanging up. He turns to me and says, “You are never going to believe this.” “WHAT??” “Ben had a stroke in his sleep. He’s dead.”

(Unfortunately, this isn’t the only kind of dream where someone who died the same night came to me. Is it coincidence? Hmmm. I don’t know. Is it still creepy? Yes).

Oh and I went to his REAL wake. And it was in an old school funeral parlor, a full, huge, Irish Catholic wake. And yes, there was a flipping kitchen door like that adjunct to one of the rooms where the coffee was. And NO, I didn’t go in the kitchen! So I can’t verify it’s exact contents! (I would now though)!

those people who die while sleeping, i wonder what could they be dreaming or are they even in the state of dreaming at that moment? 

most of my dreams r normal or all good until it changes and turns into a nightmare. It is scary! has that happened 2 u??

wow nice but sad

Hello Nevermind,

I have those dreams every 2 or 3 months, and sometimes the dreams are in the same places, but I could see them in a different angle and with a whole different subject. In some parts I don’t see me in the situation, and then the next part I’m part of the next situation. The worst part about it is that in the dream I don’t realize the difference of changes, but as one part changes to the next I start feeling agitated and oppressive, and the dreams turn out on something bad at the end. Even worst I can’t remember everything when I wake up. But throughout the day things start happening that connect to the dream, and even though is not the same place is the same subjects, and it feel like Dejavu.

My last one, it was at a place I have dreamed off before. It started with a beatiful blue sky and a silver metal building with lots of glass windows. As I walking through the grass to get to the building, there were a group of ppl walking into the building before me. But when I was going to walk into the building, the doors were close and no one seem to notice me to open it.  So I started to walk away to an area with trees. When I got close to the trees, I heard a commotion of people, and when I looked every one was running away from something. Suddenl,y I was in this neighborhood with them. Everyone ran away and I stood by myself walking around, and I heard this loud metal sound. When I looked up  above the houses, this big gigantic metal thing was walking around destroying everything, and it seen me. I freaked out, and suddenly I was at this wooden house on top the beach, there were a few next to mine. It seem as if the water rises at night. So, the water started to get in the house, and I decided to leave, but I had get my family and went walking through the sand in the dark, when I found one of them sleeping, by the time I woke him up and try to walk, I was surrounded by sea water with no way out and then I woke up. I guess knowing I would drawn is what made me wake up.

When I woke up I couldn’t breath because I felt like I was already drowning. It was quite a dream in the way I felt more than what I could see. Little events happened through the day that connected to what happened. Like passing by the state building which is metal, or seeing a commercial with Transformers movie and going through a business meeting that I never made it to.

Usually when I have a dream that has a bad message I don’t remember right away, but if I do and tell, it won’t happen. Or, sometimes it just happens anyway. Can you remember your dreams? And if you do, do they come true? Can you jinx them?

 A great
selection of pictures to cover your topics, really amazing! About my dreams, I
remember a childhood one really vivid even today:
I was flying by me self, I moved just thinking
to move. I was in a very strange house, a metallic one with automatic doors
opened when you wanted to pass through them. I was surrounded by other people,
they were really happy, playing all around.

Nowadays It
can look like a futuristic house or something like that. However, in those days
we not had even a television at home.

I had a dream a few nights ago where I was back in my English class Freshmen year (I’m a Junior in High School) and it was like reliving a memory to the exact. It seemed so real and I thought that I had seen the future and lived it, or traveled through time or something like that. It seemed to real… Everyone of the people had the same haircuts and wore the same type of clothes they did back then and all the same people were sitting in the same spots. I remember doing Vocab from that day and it was the same. I was really happy and I don’t know why, when I woke up all I could think of was trying to find a way to get back there again.

I had a dream that i was being chased by dinosaurs once, and when i woke up jurassic park was on my tv, lol.

it says your brain cant make up images. so does looking at like a singer on the tv or an actor count as like seeing them in person? Like, is it the same?

shit happens

I had a dream about this guy at my job 4 times and but each dream had different scenery. The 1st dream I was at the the store with my mom and sister and i saw my mom picking up a bag of rice or potatoes and i was laughing about something with my sister while walking  around the store then i see the guy from my job walking in the store and i see him with a baby and he’s looking for diapers then that dream cuts off. The 2nd time we r at work at he’s talking to my sister and i’m walking up to them but then she somehow appears next to me and says “If you don’t get to him 1st I’m gonna.” then that one cuts off. 
The 3rd dream there is 2 limos out side some place and my mom is getting in the 1st limo then tells me to come on and get in already but i didn’t want to and told here i’m just gonna get in the 2nd one but when i look in the second limo i see the dude from work in it  i didn’t want to get in that one either but i thought to myself “why is he here and how did he know us. but i had no choice i felt we were going to be late so i get in. The 4th dream. i see him and he sees me, we are outside some where. and we both just look at each other not saying anything. he had this look in his eyes like he was waiting for me to say something. and i felt like had something to say and if i didn’t he’d be in trouble but i kept what ever it was to myself and walked away. the the scene changes to him running and i was looking for him but couldn’t find him then there’s this hole in the ground and he fall in it and splats his arm and legs were dismembered and he was still alive for like five second and i saw through his eyes another person down there that also fell into the hole but she was already decayed then he dies. then there is a man and women who open this doors down there where the hole was and they seemed to be arguing about him falling down there. the woman said to the man ” I told you to cover the hole now look what happened.” but they also seemed to have known the girl was there like as if they had killed her but the guy from work wasn’t suppose to have fallin down there bcuz it would draw attention to what they had done. so i am still looking for him but getting no where then his mother shows up where he fell and sees his body and has a gun in her had ( I have never seen or met his mother) and she if yelling and screaming you killed my son at the man and woman then she shoots them both in the head. then i finally get there and and shes no longer around and look down the hole and didn’t see anything then  saw a door and went in it and it led me down to where he fell but i didn’t see the girl or him and then but i felt like he was there. then his mother shows up again and start chasing me and i try to get away and fell on the ground and tried to get back up but she grabbed my leg saying ” i would pay for what i did”.
then i kick her off me and escape then scene the changes. I am running into this room of full of hurt and sick people and i see my older brother and tell him someone is trying to kill me and he looked confused then there was this older man wearing a doctor coat and he asked me what was going on and i told him what happened. the she showed up in there again and starts shooting at the people who were n her way and then my brother gets behind her somehow and takes the gun and knocked her out so we all were at ease that she was down but when the doctor tried to see if she was dead she get up and tries shooting him and then they both are struggling against each other and the doctor tells m to run to the hospital but i didnt know where it was then i looked out the window and see it. then i jump out and run over there only to find no one around the end then i could sense her coming for me still everything goes dark then i woke up.

If you are snorring you could have Sleep Apnea which in my case translated to 0% delta and 0% REM because I stopped breathing 40 seconds of every minute translating to “severe” sleep apnea diagnosed in my early 40′s (no telling how long it was going on for). I have a developed a solution because the CPAP breathing device was not working because I removed it soon after falling asleep. Now I have several long dreams that are vivid, in real-time color, hair style and color are true representations. The conversations are perfectly clear, realistic and in synch with a more positive spin although some represent the past most are the present. It took my an hour once to transcribe a dream verbatim and I type as fast as you speak at 120wpm. Yes I too have had several orgasmic dreams which the physical result was so powerful it woke me. Although I have permanent brain damage and Early Onset Dementia, I now feel normal in that I have vivid dreams that I can remember.

About a week ago I had a dream and I was floating above my bed and I could see my wife sleeping and I woke up and she was sleeping the same way I seen her sleeping in my dream I didn’t see myself sleeping thouugh I just. Seen her I don’t what the heck this is. Then just last night it happend again. Was floating right above her watching her sleep and I was not laying next to heri could see everything in the room the way it is when I’m awake I don’t know but itsit freaks me right out!!

my dreams are like deal or no deal… as soon as the good part comes and i dont know what happens yet.. i wake up and cant go back to sleep
 

I had a dream not that long ago and a had a random spaz attack and I feel that my spirit lest my body but, I also felt my spirit in my body and I was half awake.

when i was little i remember having sort of a dream which i felt like i was falling in to something. it was dark and deep and i always felt something when it ends. and i remember i didn’t want to go to bed because i saw it every night.

When I was in highschool I used to keep a dream journal. I would fall asleep at night saying to myself “you will remember and you will wake up”. I got myself to wake up ( not all the time) record the dream and fall back to sleep. I then went on to teach myself to control my dreams. Again not all the time it would work. I used all the information I have gathered since then and my dream journals to do an oral project while I was in college and it caught the attention of more people then I thought and has prompted some of them to study their own dreams.Doing the report brought the intrest i had in dream and dream control back and since then I pay attention again. Most of my dreams from childhood til now are “bad” dreams as others would see them. I compare them to horror movies. But to me these are the most vivid and exciting dreams because in each one I am the hero of sorts. I never wake up feeling afraid. I stand up and fight and win. When I was a child I had two dreams that I remember very well. I used to be terrified of fire and of mice. In my dreams our house would either burn down or we would be attacked by monster mice. Every night I would have one of these dreams it would progress a little more, more details i remembered I guess. I still to this day have those dreams but I look forward to them now because I love to see what other details are added!!!! And the only one out of the 15 facts i disagree with is the snoring and not dreaming. I snore, and from what my husband tells me its most of the night. Yet I wake up with my head swimming in dreams. He only snores for a very short time after he falls asleep and not for the rest of the night, and says he doesnt remember even a hint. I know he dreams because he will talk, move etc. So as far as #14, there needs to be more studies for e to agree! There is only 1 thing that I have not been able to even slightly control. When I am running or fighting something it goes in slow motion. I can remember telling myself in the dream that this time I will not run in slow motion after I wake up. this is one thing i intend on changing at some point in time!!

What does it mean when you dream and you don’t remember it when you wake but then a few days later your doing something like at school and someone says something or a little scene happens and then all of a sudden you remember the dream and your like holly crap because I’ve had those dreams alot and it’s weird because I was in school one day at school my science teacher came in and said something and then it hit me and I was like what the and it happened so idk so please respond if you know why

I have really weird dreams and almost all of them include everyone being able to fly but me, a killer chasing me, being in a fight where my punches are weak, or night terrors. A few were very strange, and one in particular scared me worse than my night terrors.
This part isn’t the dream, but I was experimenting with meditating on what I desired most (at the time was finding my purpose), and then I dreamed of an old hag with a Raven upon her shoulder who referred to me with a name I’ve never heard before. The skies turned blood red and my family and friends were dying. The dead rose and it was very scary as I was running for my life the rest of the dream…
Ugh… Creepy.

14. If you are snoring, then you cannot be dreaming.   I

ITS NOT TRUE AND I DON’T AGREE COS I AM A HEAVY SNORING PERSON AND STILL I SEE LOTS OF DREAMS BUT SOMETIMES I DONT REMEMBER WHAT I SEE IN THE MORNING WHEN I WOKE UP

Some of these “facts”, such as the one that states you can only see faces you’ve seen while dreaming, are unproven rubbish and you people who sit around believing this dumbness are morons.

I’ve had this dream so many times, but each time something a little different. I’ll be on my childhood street, and I always try to go to the left end of the street so I can go around the block, I’ll make it to the turn and walk halfway to the next turn to go around the block but at the far corner there’s always a big suspicious and threatening looking man just standing looking down, always looking down, and I feel immense fear at the site of him, and I know he wants to harm me in all ways possible because I can just feel that he wants to abduct, rape, kill, everything if he got his hands on me. When I get closer trying to avoid him to get around the block, he like goes into motion keeping his head down, but walking with total conviction towards me, he’s wearing all black, and he never looks up or at me, but if I go to dodge he will walk that same direction so I always end up retreating and I run as fast as I can back to my house, and I sloppily open my door because of the pressure and fearing he’s right behind me, and I have trouble locking the locks on the door, and after awhile I realize he didn’t follow me all the way back, and I’ll try to get around the block a few more times because in my dream I feel I MUST get to this location for some reason, but the man is always there, and in all the dreams I’ve had I’ve never been able to be past that corner, I go other routes freely, but not on that street or by route of that corner, and I don’t understand why, and I’m sick of this dream yet it is frequent…

has anyone ever had a dream that they were floating above them selves, like i could see my self sleeping but i couldnt wake my self up, and it was freezing but i could see my self under a blanket so there was no way i was cold, then i just drifted further and further from my body not knowing what was going on. then as i foated through the walls, and i saw outside, but it was some what different, i could see other people just floating like me but its like they didnt know it, and then i woke up. it keeps happenning and i dont get it, is it what they call an inner outer body experience or what?

i dreamed of dieing and seeing god but i got scared and woke up. i was crying.

when ever i dream i can never stay in one place, like for example, the other day i dreamed of being at a party then i had to go home get changed and go back but every time i turn around in dreams like these i end up in a new place like every door opens up to a new room kind of thing

I once was cleaning my room when I was younger and I was sitting on the ground exhausted mid-clean.  As I reached to put the lid on a 2-liter of soda I fell asleep and dreamed that I was putting on the lid.  I woke up right after and realized I didn’t put the lid back on, so I reached to put the lid on and fell back asleep and had the same dream.  This cycle continued at least 5 times until I finally woke up and put the lid on.  Idk wtf the was about. 

I dreamed that i’m dreaming inside my dream.. It’s kinda weird. What does that supposed to mean?

I heard that if you have a dream about the devil and God defeats him or something like that, that you will never have a bad dream again. I don’t know if its true or not but it sounds like a good deal to me. With my experience i think it might be true.

I once had a dream about how my sister and i were at some place and she wanted to get her nose pierced to make it look like a bulls nose(the structure of its nose and a ring between the nostrils) but this man told us that if she did that some evil spirits or demons might be released into the world. She did that anyways and she did end up releasing spirits and they were coming after both of us. we tried to hide and ended up at this outside two story mall. it found us and it smashed the balcony where we were and i fell really hard only on my knee on the cement. then out of nowhere my mom comes and she tells us that we need to pray for light so that God will see us and save us. We prayed and prayed and then the light came and shined down on us. I think God sent the evil spirits away or did something with them i don’t remember all i know is that we were safe and it was over. I woke  up and i was practically crying. I don’t remember having any bad dreams since then. It been about half a year since that dream.

I had an awesome dream. I had my first kiss and it was nice and bright like a movie, and very colorful and zoomed in on just the lips and zoomed out to just the faces.I really enjoyed it. I continue to dream and realize it was justin bieber who kissed me. :p . I have never liked jim before, but after that dream i just have to say, I adore him now . hahah

I had a dream that my friend was tied up underneath a car and these 2 guys from my school where dresses In black suits with shades and said in a James bond voice “we have boots, boots 3.5″ (which was her nickname) all of a sudden I slide across the car and than somehow end up in a canoe with the cast of criminal minds going down a waterfall trying to chase the guys with my friend than I woke up … Haha most action filled dream i ever had!

hi in my most of dream i am running from someone who  will kill me pls help if u know something about my dream

You dont make up people in your dreams, so maybe she really is your soul mate you just have to keep looking  

I had this dream a few weeks ago while I was in China. I had a dream That there were these three family and they were being introduced by a narrator as if the were characters in a movie or in a book. One family had 5 kids, 4 of them boys. Here’s when I come in the dream with my friend Tyler and we’re walking to or from a concert and i see 3 of the 4 boys walk past, though I pretend I don’t notice. I leave Tyler alone for a few minutes saying that I had to goto the bathroom, and just as I get in the stall I see 2 of the boys looking down laughing at me. They jump into the big stall and laugh in my face, then the third boy appears and laughs along with them. I tried to leave the stall but they wouldn’t let me leave. I finally told them to let me go and that I didn’t fight them. And The oldest said to me, ” I know you don’t want to hurt me, you want me to TOUCH you…” Those were his exact words. I got pissed and I slapped him right across the face and the 2 other boys just stared at me in awe. The boy is obviously in upset at me and he yells “I cant believe I thought you were gorgeous!!!!” Then I told him that he couldn’t touch and that I wasn’t a slut, or something like that, then I left the stall. Anyone want to tell me what that dram might mean?

I keep dreaming with this girl, i know who she is but we have never met and i always feel like there is some kind of connection and i cant get out of my head. Everytime i wake up it ruins the nice dream :/

One day I set my alarm clock on my phone, and then I was dreaming(I now forget the dream) and I heard a beeping and I thought it was a bomb, then I woke up and it was just my phone trying to wake me up.

I’ve had multiple dreams where I’m having amazing s ex with my boyfriend. Even more amazing are the powerful orgasms I have while dreaming and I wake up feeling really really content and satisfied. My boyfriend gets jealous of my dream-gasms, as someone else put it. I thought I was the only one lol

Time to go to bed and see some dreams.

I got up to pee in the toilet, but while I was peeing, I woke up and was peeing in the bed..(i was a kid)

Me too

I sometimes have those strange dreams when im being suffocated by someone, or sometimes, a really creepy women/girl tickling me until it hurts…when i get those dreams, i usually wake up really scared/angry

It’s “dreamt” not “dreamed” …

I am sometimes awakened from a dream by my husband because I am snoring. That one is false.

I had a dream where i got married and went on a honeymoon with my husband and our stomachs some how got attached (then i was just watching this happen i wasnt the girl any more) then a wire came and wrapped around the girls neck and pulled her out the window and she became a mermaid sailing over the beach with a wire around her neck then she landed in a dirty ware house with bunkbeds with no mattresses and an old man was laying on one he was part bald so she cut off the top of his head cuz he was no longer bald 

Hi!, Well, I don’t know English so much, but i will try..I forget almost all what I dream, but sometimes, when the dream is so disturbing or worrying I usually try to think in some other things, because as you said, sometimes you get some bad feelings and during the day you think something bad will happen, However let me give you an advice, avoid to keep those dreams in your mind, at least try it, because some or many things are in our minds.Actually i hope everything will be better, greetings, and sorry because of my bad English….

the most odd and scary dream i ever had was when i was about 6… I still remember it now. I was chasing my mum n she turned into a rabbit n started burrowing threw the ground.. I spent ages trying to catch her n when i finally did she turned to me, cut off her little finger and said to me look at what u made me do.. As a little girl that freaked me out big time!!!

the same boys always in my dream, either were awkward or he tells me he loves me. (hes my real life crush) ugh :/ 

i had a dream about dead birds lying everywhere in my moms backyard….sad part was, someplace else in the us actually had dead birds lyin everywhere in ppls yards….i had that dream 2 nights before i heard about the dead birds on the news. i dreamed about it before it happened. my mom was shocked when i told her and it actually happened.

precognitive dreams are definitely a real thing, I’ve had them from time to time since I was a very young child, still have them on occasion, but not very often. But for that, I am glad, because mine always seem to be about bad things that are going to happen or deaths of friends, family and loved ones. For me it feels more like a curse, than a gift. I’d rather not know. 

what does an owl in a dream means?
i saw a big ,giant ,fluffy white owl …..a very big ..
in my dream i was on terrace …and the big owl flew away ..when i saw him …
owls are my favorite birds …but ..what does an owl in a dream means?
the one like in the ”owl city” song..:)

I had a dream i won a million dollars…. 

It’s both. look it up.

I refer you to item #10 – that paralysis can persist into waking.

I am a snorer wich hasnt stoped me from being an avid dreamer with full detail to alot of my dreams. Just an example of one of them i was sleeping in the basment floor of my friends duplex i rose up thru the floor seing him watching tv as i crused up thru the floor thru the roof all the way over the city to my mothers house i went ending up on her roof top in the back yard. her dogs were outside it was late they were barking at what i felt was an evil entity in the alley. In fact all the dogs in the alley were barking and going crazy twards this spot that i was focusing on i tried screamin get outa here but nothin came out i felt my self gettin sucked back to my bed the same way i got there. When i woke it was 3am i asked my wife if i should call my mom so i did when i called her she said she was looking to see why all the dogs in the alley were going crazy

After having that outa body after having thr wierd outa body dream or expeience i find my self trying to make it happen again it takes lotsof consontration but i am somtimes able to do it when i do it i get a horrible feeling if i go to far like if my heart is sinking to the bottom of the ocean when i get sucked back to my body i get up to investigate the places ive been in my house or out side things seem to always be the same my wife is freekedfreeked

i have A single Dream which ive been viewing for the last Six months… Alternatly evry second or third day ,, sometimes i know what is goin to be happen next ,,, sometimes i saw myself in a miserable condition helpless… and as i know i help myself getting rid of it… it continues Same as we saw TV shows everyday some new,,, and this makes me think about it All day long … IDK ,, whenver there is a situation which i know i can handle or i like that moment than suddenly EITHER i woke up… or Just got DISCONNECTED from that dream…. 

One time i had a dream my cat got out and when i went out side looking for her i started chasing this ninja cat who looked nothing like my cat and through knives and after along time of me chasing it and it throwing knives i yelled “wait your not my cat!” and ran down the street where my brother had just drove away and there in the street there was a blood stain and some how i knew it was my cat i started crying in my dream and when i woke up i was really crying and my cat was sitting next to me

does anyone have dreams where you try to scream but no sound comes out then you start to cry?

I have had those two EXACT dreams.
that is so incredibly wierd :/

I guess it depends, if I think of taps for a few seconds, I would bet I’d dream about it, rather thatn me dreaming about something I thought about all day.
This has no relation to dreams, but if I come in from a day of (random topic) school, the television is guarranteed to show a programme which relates to something that happened in school. 
I had a dream that there was a pool for the little ones and one for the older ones, and I was missing my friend/crush because he was in the little one pool whereas I had the weird older one. Which is kinda freaky because he’s a year younger & we’ve been separated a lot lately. Any interpretations?

My dreams are so random. Within the same night I’ve
Dreamed I was pregnant & another where I was going through
My ex boyfriend’s phone and found pictures of my cousin. When i wake up it seems that my dreams are very short and scattered together. I gind myself wondering how i got from point a to b.

I stopped having dreams…it sucks. I feel alone in space. What causes not having dreams?

Trouble is, if dreams are based in symbolism, and even the symbol is represented by a symbol, the dreams we have become very individual to the person having the dream. Because of this, you need to remember rather small details from your dream, if you wish to understand what it was about. Only a couple of times can I say I ‘knew’ what my dream had meant but even then I could be wrong. Also I have had serious nightmares, really upsetting stuff and it wasn’t til recently I began to have nice dreams. Basically, people believe what ever they wish and dreams are not answers or helping us. they are just a relection of how great the human imagination is……….in my opinion. Thank You kindly.Gary.

what are dreams? are they just what your subconscious mind were telling? anxieties? or the things you wanna happen? are they warnings from what might happen? or precognitions maybe? how bout those dreams wherein God wants to tell you something? during “astrals(for those psychics)” can it be also be counted as a dream? how bout lucid dreaming? just wondering ) 

Well,I really dont know how to explain what happens to me,but when Im having a bad dream,I have no iidea of how I do it,but I can change my dream like if I was concious.Its kind of weird,for example if Im dreaming of someone killing me I say (in my mind of course) This is MYY dream,I can do whatever and I give myself powers in my dream.Or sometimes I just go back like you know if your watching a movie how you can go back? I do the same thing,like if I was repiting my dream allover and changing the things I dislike.Its really weird,does that happens to anyone else or Im the only weirdo? Lololol, thanks for reading & have a nice day,BYEEE

I saw myself, as a young boy, laying supine on the floor with my head
closest to me. I was in the master bedroom, on the 2nd floor of a house I actually lived in. There was a young
girl, on my left side, and a woman, on my right side, kneeling down next to my
motionless body. The woman had an evil, demon possessed face and she was
smiling with her mouth agape. I saw the girl lift her right hand, out of my
chest, slowly upward with my heart in her hand to show the older demon. The
girl had a similar face. It looked like I was dead and it felt like I was right
there in the room in real time. The girl and woman did not look at me; they
didn’t know I was watching them. 

I too experience these kind of dreams.

My dreams are like that every night.

this night i woke up playing with myself next to my husband was concerned because i never had a sexual dream b4 let alone this??/
 

Most men dream of other men? Maybe in San Francisco haha.

Hello, I’m 14 yrs old. This is my first year at high-school and I love the supernatural, paranormal magical aspects of I life. They seem to just interest me, most my friends don’t know that I lucid dream and i’m scared of sleep paralysis which in fact is my worse nightmare, which I actually do have nightmares about. But the point that i’m trying to make is that ” DREAMING” is so much fun, if you know how to control them or even in fact realise you’re are dreaming is even enough to interest me. I have weird dreams 24 seven I remember most my dreams especially if I liked the dream, i’ll remember the dream for ever or until I write it in my dream journal. If you’re interested by “DREAMING” study lucid dreaming it is a very interesting topic and I love doing it everytime it never gets old.

Do people who speak multiple languages dream mainly in one language or several?

Has this every happeed to anyone?: You might be having a nightmare or disturbing seen, so you try to get it out of your head but you can’t. Then once you turn your head and face the other side of your bed, your dream is totally different and its actually a good dream. I do this all the time whenever I have a nightmare and somehow it works! 

seen my mother who is dead about twenty years ago offering me new cloths to me.

About two months ago, I had a dream ( I don’t remember all the particulars ) and I was driving in a car and a train went past. I was talking to someone and I was eating something fruity. Well, about a month after that dream I was driving back to my friends house with her and her mom and her sister and a train went past and I was eating shaved ice/ snow cone… I had a very strong sense of deja vu when I remembered the dream… I’ve had these kinds of dreams a couple of times and I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets them.. Phew! lol  

Is it only me that can see an image in a dream and then a few days/weeks later see that same image in real life Why does this even happen
Does it happen to everyone

Same thing happens to me, they’ve been coming about three times year since I was 10 (I’m 13 now.)

So its like I’m at camp or some place and we’re playing a game where a thing or monster is chasing everybody and if it catches you your out the game. It’s not scary it’s kinda fun actually. And it’s in this huuuuge building with a bunch of floors and you have to get to the bottom floor to be safe before the game is over, if you don’t you automatically lose. I haven’t lost once but that’s probably cause its my own dream lol. Usually I’m with my older sister but the past few times I’ve been with cute guys from my class or guys I don’t know, and I been once with my little sister. It’s real bizarro…..

hello, i had a dream of marrying my friend,yet i don’t even saw his face but i know he is that person i’m thinking of.. but on the other hand i had confusions to continue the wedding because of my ex-boyfriend i wasn’t able to get over with.what does it mean?

wen i was young i got a dream that i nd my frns were playing with ghost…………which i remembered in d morning
 

I’ve had dreams anywhere from a family member dying in a dream, dreaming I was talking to somebody dead, and somebody dead trying to kill me. I have a repeating dream thats almost the same every time, that a person “i can’t see their face” is trying to kill me and I’m trapped in my house with them. I’ve had this dream so many times I’m not even scared anymore. 

yeah one time i dreamed i was a faggot..but i would never even think about it in real life cuz in real life i’ve always been a real macho man..so that just goes to show that dreams are just chaotic & random episodes of the subconscious mind..which u have no control of..stupidities

sometimes i’ll start to remember a dream during the day, like dejavu then i try to see how far i can keep going to keep it that way so i remember it. its really weird. like i’ll see or say something that triggers dejavu then ill see how far i get before it ends… its kind of scary sometimes… it sometimes happens when im in dangerous situations where it will take me as far as almost getting myself killed…

I’ve been having the same dream (it isn’t the only dream I have though) repeatedly throughout my 18 years of life. I honestly have no idea what to make of it. I’m sure I can’t be the only one with a reoccurring dream, and would appreciate the thoughts of someone else who may be experiencing the same thing. Thanks!

yeah.. most of the time .. it’s weird because it didn’t even last longer it changes everytime ..

I had several dreams where I was either Harry Potter or part of the action, prequel, sequel … it was awesome, not to mention that I dreamt things that were yet to be written … that was really scary.

i have dreams in which i cant really hear the person im talking to but i know what they are talking about

Whats wiered is that in a dream i had my phone go off at school and i was trying to turn it off but i couldn’t so i woke up and it was my alarm on my phone

I remember once, I dreamed about these 3 talking unicorns going on an adventure. The very next day I watched the first Charlie the unicorn video, for the very first time. How freaky is that?

I have a recurring dream where I am in nothing but whiteness as far as the eye can see and I am on a gravel path that is a tan color at the side of the path a boy who looks like the one from the cover of the little prince book bends down and picks a flower. I am at peace in my dream till the boy appears because I know it doesn’t matter if I take the flower or not the world will turn black and a monster like machine that has sharp teeth and spits fire will consume me but I always wake up thrashing before it eats past my stomach

I just had a dream last night where I was being attacked by something that I couldnt see but that I could feel was in the room. It kept suffocating me and paralyzing me. I woke up and I couldnt sleep for three hours because I felt like it was still in the room “/

You do release that you have had millions of dreams? Coincidentally one happened to coincide with the events of reality.

see i dream alot bout zombie attacks and alot bout my new born niece being droped on her head its sad and i cant help but cry and wake up screaming

Dreams are symbolic is not a fact, it is only a theory based of the psychoanalysis perspective. It shouldnt be classified as a fact, just saying.

recently i’ve been dreaming about things that are on my mind , in the past i never did and i always saw in movies that people did and idk wkat it means

I have had a dream where my mind was awake but i couldnt move, so i had to jerk my body to wake up! it was pretty scary the first couple of times! what do they mean???

Sometimes in my dreams I see that I am visiting
a place I have never been to before in reality or a home not mine and I suppose
would be completely unfamiliar in reality. But I will be knowing which way to
go and all. And when I am half awake or in the sleep itself not sure, I find myself asking how did I figure
out this and get a feeling that I had a dream earlier also with the same
location and that’s why this time i was familiar. Any interpretation for this?

A lot of my dreams have me falling and my body would jerk causing me to awake. However once I did die…idk where I was but after I died I was in this weird way to. Vivid place. I remember wanting to get out. But I felt stuck. When I finally woke up I felt short of breath and pulse very slow. I had been asleep for a total 18 or so hours. Idk what happend to me…idk where I was….ever since then my dreams have not been the same. I dream of dead people now….and these dead people are people I don’t know but they want my help. Idk how to help . I’m 17 how in the hell do I help dead people in my dreams?! I’ve gotten to the point where I just try not to sleep. Its to real.

I dream about i went back in 1969 through Time Machine.
Sometimes I dream about parachute, airplanes,
Strangest one was i went to the moon by traveling in a bus and I was wondering how I did it

I had a dream last night where I was in my house, my siblings were out side, and my dad wasent there but my mom was watching tv, anyway, in my dream I heard the tv suddenly say something like, the United States have blasted russia, and the russians have retaliated and launched several hundred nuclear war heads at America, the day was 12/12/12, Now my mom in my dreams is like Oh my god, she started freaking out she told me to go and get my brothers, I allready had a sick feeling in my dream but when I went out side, there in my sights I could see like 20 missels in the sky heading for the ground, they were big and black and I could see yellow on it in some places, I suddenly new I was going to die, it was a horrible feeling there was nowhere to run, no where to hide, so in my dream I immiediatly fell to my knees and started confession to god and asking him to keep me when I died, and it was a rushed prayer because I knew I only had about 5 seconds to live, then one after the other, they started blowing up on the ground and horizon, blowing up with a blinding flash, I saw a wave of wind throw cars into house, I was swept off my feet and thrown, the ground was shakeing really hard, I tried to get up but the ground shook so hard my legs and arms buckeld and I kept falling, I then saw a red wave moving closer destroying everything, incinerating it, I saw people screaming who suddenly burst into flames, then I burst into flames, and the weird thing was, it hurt, I felt it, I screamed and then the wave finnaly reached me, that is the end of the dream, I know I didnt wake up yet but I dont remember the dream I had after that. Id like to hear what you have to say about this dream

Once I had a dream that me, my brother and my sister were all born as bell peppers on a stalk.

I HAD A DREAM THAT I HAD SEX WITH MY SISTER-N-LAW AND IM NOT EVEN ATTRACTIVE TO HER, WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? MORE THEN ONCE…

I once had a dream where I was on a horse attacking Jesus with a sword. Jesus looked like he does in those Christian cartoons and he said something profound to me; but I forgot it once I woke up.

last night i dreamed that there were bunny clouds and they were farting on my peacock face. then i fell in love with peter pan, and we danced on raspberry jam. after i threw up on him and he thought it was cool so he threw up on , me too

Once I had this dream where all of a sudden I was in a shooting range and I was with a ton of other people like six or seven and we had a coach and he told us to start shooting an we did. After that he took us all to a room no windows no openings and the entire thing was made from the best metal and the door was super tough like those air lock ones or something. Anyway he locked us in and said kill eachother but we didn’t want to cuz we were all friends. Somehow i forgot how we managed to get out. And he was really mean and said kill eachother. Anyway I shoot him and he didn’t even get a scratch and he was wearing the best armour in the world and he says ok I see how it is try to kill me. And he starts walking toward me with a knife threatening to cut me up peice by peice and I pickup my gun and try to shoot him but I have no bullets. He corners me and right when I’m about to open the door and run it just magicly disappears. When he is right about to kill me I wake up. by the way I never went to a shooting range and I never knew what it looked like. Turns out, my dream got the shooting range exactly right, and I never knew her it looked like. Creepy huh

I do the same dreams and nightmares most of the time. It’s weird, especially my nightmares, they’re always the same and I know what’s gonna happen but I can’t change anything and it still scares the shit out of me!

”
14. If you are snoring, then you cannot be dreaming.” seems false to me. I snore and dream all the time. I even wake up in the middle of a dream because I thought my snoring was an earthquake or something.

once while dreaming i realized was dreaming and woke my self up it might sound wired but it happend

After watching the movie Waking Life, I’ve been experimenting in my dreams ever since. There are times when I am a very lucid dreamer. If I pick out a part of what happened in my dream I can usually trace them back or forward two of three dreams. The more memorable the event in my dream the easier it is to do.

I have one dream that still haunts me. I was dreaming something completely unmemorable when I started running through endless trees. I was searching for a guy named Derek I knew from high school, I kept yelling his name feeling dread, anxiety, and panic. I stopped running and yelled Derek once more, which was when I woke up sitting in bed. That Monday I learned that the guy I was yelling for had been killed in a car accident. It may have all just been coincidence but I still remember how I felt running and yelling.

I’ve had this weird dreams of seeing my body inside the room (not including my face or head) as if I’m awake and after that, something’s pulling me out of the bed. Something or someones trying to get me.

Most of my dreams are of the same goal. Someone’s killing me. Maybe in different situations, different characters and different places.

does anyone ever wake up and feel like yesterday was the dream, and your actual dream really did happen?

Sometimes i dream that I’m sitting on the toilet and wake up really having to pee.

Last night I had a dream of a guy I once use to be head over heels for and in this dream I saw him on facebook on an unknown page and as I was strolling down it… I saw pictures of him starting as a grown man and the further I go I see him as a young teenage boy. Then I saw one picture of is chest and a tattoo, I had seen it on him once before but was confused to why was he in my dreams!!!

most of these points seem pretty legit. i think there are probably better books out there than the one linked as it begins with sweeping generalizations and the word ‘mysterious’ is in the first paragraph. nice art work on this page by the way.

Once when I was younger I had a dream about seeing aliens invading a local theater and there were neon lights everywhere… but then about a year later I had a dream about being in a car with Ashley Tisdale and some guy and driving to the place! Do dreams ever prequel or sequel?

I had a dream once where an evil dictator was killing all the adults and inslaving chilldren. I can remeber the dictator was kiling some adults, myself included, and the thing is she (yes the dictator was female) throw a knife that penetrated my neck. and I wole up gasping for air. ps. I usailly remember a Lot of my dream – the crazier it is the more I remeber. No matter who old I was when I dreamt it.

u did a astral projection which is when your body leaves your soul and then comes back so u left your soul and went to where your mom lived and the astral projection is very hard to do

I remember as child, my worst nightmare. I was in my old church, and an eye was watching me. Once I moved away to a new town, I had the final dream, except it was two eyes, and a mouth laughing at me. Luckily I’ve never dreamt being in that church again.

yesterday in my dream I had visited a musium fully. It was a very nice museum and i enjoyed a lot but tody again i saw the same dream but with my brother and my mother and in the dream all the things were same but suddenly in the middle we saw a fight between a lion and hyena.My mom with the guide ran and went to the other side but me and my brother climbed a coconut tree and waited. the lion went away but the hyena was below us waiting for us to come down. After that I woke up.

I have dreams every night. Very detailed they remind me of Inception!!! I sometimes have dreams of ‘want’ I had a dream once of having puppies and they were soo cute and nice and good puppies ^^ My parents are too busy to take care of a dog so I don’t have one but I would like to have one some day maybe haha When I wake up I’m like DAMMIT

I have dreamed of a reoccurring theme so often that I know throughout my being that the interpretation of them in real life has to be the truth. Yet, as I am navigating through my wakened state, I am powerless to face the problem. I am at a loss to find the root to this self analysis. Maybe it is the fear of change. Maybe it is laziness. It is like my body does one thing, while my brain screams at me to wake up and smell the coffee.

I dream about planets.

I had two very discomforting dreams. The first I was driving, but in reverse and with all my might I could not make it go forward. I was moving very fast and I almost hit something, but before I did I started moving forward almost at the speed of light. My other is about my ex who deceived me and I broke everything in his home I could put my hands on lol….

When I was a teenager, and still a virgin, I had a vivid dream in which I was having sex with a man. When I woke up the next morning, I had blood in my underwear. I wasn’t on my period at the time…That has freaked me out to this day…The only other time I had such a vivid sex dream was when I was pregnant with my first child. I would’ve swore it was real sex, orgasm and all. Any other time I try to have sex in my dreams, I always wake up before anything happens…

i’ve not been able to have dreams since last week, when something tragic happened!

Once i had a dream, where i met five rockers… The dream was divided into three parts/different days, The first night/ dream, I was walking home from the store, it had begun to get dark out, but i didn’t really mind. I kept walking, and out of the blue, the scenario changed. Where i was walking was now a cliff i had to climb down on. The Five rocker people appeared, and we became friends, Second night/dream I had run away from home, cause of some house problems. And the same five people came for me, the had said that i would be able to stay with them. They took me to a sorta, paradise-like place, where all vegitation was green, I stayed and enjoyed myself. The last part of the dream was, we were going somewhere else, i think to a mini-mart and the leader, whom was a girl, told me to get off at a gas-station, she went in, and i tailed behind. When we got in the, place was abandoned, She smiled and asked if ii wanted to join some crazy group they had, i oblivious, stated a firm no and checked for the cashier. She got frusterated, and turned into a vampire. She had a sword and everything, She neared close to and told me that if i didn’t join i would have to fight her till death… After that i woke. I felt weird and freaked out..

I had a dream that I was repeatedly stabbing someone over and over. Blood was everywhere and I’d never felt more rage and sadness than I had in that dream. It felt real, and I woke panicked. This happens every so often. I don’t know why.

I had a dream tht I fell off a cliff and it was a pretty high cliff too. I couldn’t help notice I was falling for a cool minute lets say 5min but, it just felt that way for some odd reason and as I was about to hit the floor I woke up in a rush. I guess you an say it was the adrenaline but the weirdest part was that I was walking in a wasteland and fell through a crack not more than 4 inches wide

dreams are the beautiful things in life……. every one should enjoy it

i dreamed that an unstable violet energy-oil-like substance just appeared above my house and it attracted a lot of black energy-oil-like substances towards it and it remained that violet color even though it was mixed with those black colored substances. Then,a big black horizontal portal appeared just beside it. It opened and a bright vivid green light blinded everyone. It took in all the energy,a bit like a vacuum cleaner and then just disappeared. i don’t know its meaning but the dream was so cool and so vivid.I thought everyone was gonna die but nothing happened. I loved that dream!

In my dream I was having an amazing party and Fat Amy was there (pitch perfect) and al of a sudden she danced over to me and punched me square in the face! I woke up and my face felt numb!

My mom, uncle and I have this recurring dream. They say they don’t dream it as much now that they’re grown but I still do sometimes. It’s the weirdest thing not only because of what the dream is but because we all have it. Just a few weeks ago we all discovered that we have been having the same recurring dream for years. I wonder if it’s genetic…is that possible? We all dream that we are flying but it’s this really specific way of flying and when I started talking about, my mom throws in a couple details and my uncle does and suddenly we all realized that have the exact same dream. And we had never told anyone about it before.

Has anyone tried to controle there dreams? Like thinking of something over and over again untill you sleep? Or haveing sound turn on wile you are sleeping? Or smell in the area?

last week I had a dream.

five people where there and walking towards a wall which having a blue
gate.people wearing a black uniforms with a square bag behind their
shoulders, written W.B in bold green color(they seems like commandos).
And one person(i call him ‘hero’) jump over the gate and sees some local
people where playing with some instruments (but am not hearing any
music) suddenly hero fired one of the local people(a terrorist or a bad
guy) and he felt down with his gun( I didn’t see any blood, only sound
of gun). And at next scene hero saw a girl (seems like hostage) killing
one of the terrorist with a small knife(now I seen blood) and running
towards hero , suddenly she felt down just few steps before hero (may be
someone shot her). Suddenly another girl ran towards hero , this time
hero catch her move her aside and show
his id or something and girl believed.and on next scene hero is walking
towards a building and the girl is walking behind him , suddenly a men
saw them from top of the building and start firing , then hero killed
him but again and again men came and hero continue fire again and
again(i saw sparks , smokes , guns, blood ) and at-last something
came(seems like bullet) towards hero and he just move away from it (me
in the bed too), but it struck on the girl right shoulder.Next scene a
dark mud having blood on it and at a corner hero sits on his laps(seems
depressed but not crying )and hitting his gun on the mud(with little
pace only , not angrily) repeatedly.

I remember all these
because I woke up after this dream and written some points on paper to
not forget and I didn’t remember or recognize any faces (may be I didn’t
see any faces).But it seems interesting why I saw this, I have no
connection with commandos and recently I didn’t see any commando or war
movies(i watched a couple before 2,3 months back)and didn’t play such
games(6 months back counter strike was my favorite), but from no where
why I seen it!

That means you’re racist

i dream the same dream ALOT its starts by me pulling a hair out of my throat like a hair thats wrapped itself around the dangly thing at the back of my throat, the more I pull the hair turns into a thick fleshy thing, then I realise its part of my body and stop pulling on it, but its already half way out of my mouth, I can’t talk then because my mouth is full of this fleshy thing that I can’t swallow back down…its a really awful dream, and actually hurts (in my dream)…… another dream i have a lot is where my mouth is huge and open and I cant shut it, when I talk to ppl I have to cover my mouth and another one is where my teeth all fall out at once to point where im spitting out mouthfulls of teeth. does anyone know what all these mouth dreams mean???

The one i have never quite understood is a dream in which i was being chased by an elephant through a coffee plantation…LOL!

I once had a dream so real. I was young and had a dream about getting a motorcycle. I bilieved it so much when I woke up I went outside to ware I dreamt I stored it and almost cried when I realized it were only a dream. Ill never forget that..

My weirdest dream was a probably 5 or 6 years ago. I had a dream that I had a 3some in an aquarium full of giant spaghetti and meatballs. Like the meatballs were the size of baskeballs and the spaghetti noodle were the size of those swimming noodles. I have no idea what triggered that but I definitely woke up thinking “oooooooook” hahaha

I had a dream that I took my parents car and
drove to see the guy I liked at his work. He worked at a fast food restaurant
which is different to where he works in real life. And when I went to see him
we just cuddled in the middle of the parking lot. It was so weird. Then he
said he had to go back to work he went back to work then he got yelled at by his boss so I
left and his boss gave me a dirty look. Then I drove on the highway the wrong
way and I passed a cop and was scared I was going to go to jail so I turned on
the GPS and it wasn’t working so I drove around on the high way
backwards trying to get home. I never got home then I woke up. God it was so
weird.

Any suggestions on what my dream meant?

God told me the night before it happened !! I was looking for a clean sheet of paper to write on and found an old tablet that I had wrote some scriptures in and so before I wrote what I wanted to write,I noticed the scriptures and started reading and it was God saying that he was about to shake the earth!!!

I had an unusual dream I was in a strange place it was like a city inside a building if that makes any sense and this person was guiding me around it and telling me who all the people were and what they did. everyone in this dream was realy freindly and they welcomed me as if I was one of their own.

My psychology teacher said that you always wake up just before you die in a dream because you cannot dream of death seeing as you haven’t experienced it before.

I dreamt my son the night of conception.
And today it is that kid i dreamt.
That was truly a weird dream.

One time I had a dream I pissed in my closet in my room and my brother cleaned it with a sponge I smelt my shoes and they didn’t smell bad

i dreamed i was in a river and down a waterfall i go i woke up when i hit a rock

Yo man. Do you think water-breathing was a dreaming habit that stopped when you brought it into waking reality? Or maybe a sea nymph visiting you in the night? Grandmas know things. She may have quietly done away with it for you.

I’ve had both friendly and malevolent visitors in the night.
Dreams are an easy target for energy manipulatiors, for communication And as a source of food.

Or maybe it was just your silly subconcoius mind.

Where does the info in number 4 come from? I wonder how on Earth could someone know if the faces you see in a dream belong to real people you once met or if they are completely imaginary. Is there even a method to tell, if the dreamers themselves don´t remember if they met them? Unless someone invented the dream recording machine, I cant really imagine. (But if there is some cleverly designed experiment to show that, I would really like to know.)

Oh… and a very interesting article – I especially liked the part about dreaming in black and white.

I HAD A DREAM ABOUT ME DREAMING AND IN THAT DREAM I WAS DREAMING then i woke up in my dream and had some orange juice and started floating

Is it possible for a blind person to dream about someone that they’ve never met and then meeting them in real life later?

I hear strange noises in my dream…sometimes i float in my dream …… my some of the dreams sounds funny but it actually creeps me out.

I LIKE TURTLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve dreamt about someone never knew or ever seen but when I actually saw them for the first time in my life I immediately remembered the dream and the face

When i was 4 years old i had a dream peeing in the toilet at my grandfathers house, but when i woke up i was busy peeing in my pants ;(!

The girl bec that wants torape a baby with a drill is NOT normal… And probably needs help

No, racism is when you think/speak negatively about another race. It would not be racist to associate one black man with another. Please do not use the term if you don’t know what it means. -_-

I have had the same dream everynight for the last 3 nights. It was about my best guy friend asking me out. The weird thing is he is more like my brother than a boy friend. He has do e said multiple times he doesnt like me. Wtf? Tell me qill my dream come true? Please say no

I had a dream that I thought was reality. Because I was having a hard time going to sleep the night before a race, I dreamt that I had stayed up the whole night… Then I woke up and got so confused.

my hubby asked me why he is having dreams such as falling off a bridge than flying hes thinking it could be about friends that passed away i know he has a buddy that just died 2 weeks ago he was close but towards he wasnt what do some of you think these dreams mean

I once had a dream where I had a disco in my downstairs closet. I did a dance with slenderman that dream.

I dream about eating food very time I go on a diet (where I only eat healthy) to lose a couple extra pounds I gained over the cold winter months… and when I wake up I actually believe I ate that food, it can take up to an hour to separate the dream from reality… weird!

One time I had a dream about a friend that had died about 2 years ago and his mom had thrown a huge party for his 16th Birthday. I was going around the whole party looking for him but never could find him but instead when I was going home he came to me in spirit saying all these crazy things to me. I don’t understand it at all!

I cannot read anything in my dreams. But I can feel, taste, see in color, hear and fly. Lol

I love what you’re saying! So much of what you say, I feel the same way.

I’ve had vivid, life like dreams since I was just a kid – I remember almost all of my dreams. I still recall dreams from child-hood as if they were REAL memories of REAL events. I often have to really think – was that real or one of my life-like dreams?

I also have many dreams that link with past dreams – in my current dream, past dreams become ‘memories’. Like my current dream is a continuation of that ‘life’. I have MANY dreams like this. It honestly feels like I’m living this alternate reality that is progressing parallel to my waking life.

I’ve had many moments in real life where I know I dreamed of it before – it could be months or even years – but it’s a very vivid memory from a dream that I’m now experiencing in real life.

I’ve also ‘died’ many times in my dreams and I don’t always wake up – my dream just progresses into something else. But I’ve also had dreams where I do wake up right after. It’s a trip.

I’ve had a lot of dreams where I’m flying, floating, or drowning or using a jetpack – and the sensations are so real, even though it’s something I’ve never actually experienced in this life. But it feels like I MUST have experienced it somewhere, somehow to be able to create such real sensations.

I’ve often thought when we dream that maybe we are connecting with other dimensions or other spirit energy even – and not necessarily in a scary or religious way. Just as in our spirits are able to connect beyond our physical body and/or enter different dimensions and then return back to ‘this’ life when we wake up.

I love my dream life – I would really love to start writing about all of my dreams because of how vivid they are and how so much of it is like this continuous life taking place.

I’ve also often dreamt of people who’ve passed on – sometimes the dreams were really disturbing. But often, they feel as if that person is really trying to reach me and that’s how they can do it. Because I’m more reception in my dream state than in waking day to day life where so many things are vying for my attention.

Lastly – I’ve also learned how to achieve lucid dreaming – which is THE most fun EVER. It’s the closest thing to a real Avatar like experience. It’s like I settle into the dream and realize ‘I’m here! I’m in!’ and I know I’m dreaming and have full control over what I do, where I go, etc. And I know I can do whatever I want without real-life consequences so I can be more daring and do crazy things and just see what happens! The only thing I can’t do is control other things in my dream – like where I ended up, or the other people, etc. I can kind of influence it…like if I want to see someone or have a particular experience, I can go ‘looking’ for it and often can make it manifest…but I don’t have full control over that yet, not like I do over myself. Anyway – I love lucid dreaming! But it definitely feels different than regular dreaming.

One time, I’m not joking, I swear I accidentally encountered a real spirit in a lucid dream. I was playing around and found this ‘person’ who wasn’t really a person – and I got this weird dark feeling, but I knew it was a ‘dream’ so I kept going. Except when I start playing around with them – it’s like they didn’t like it and suddenly I felt this really hot, prickly, burning and nauseous feeling in my stomach and lower abdomen and I then immediately woke up and realized that feeling was still there when I woke up. And there was still this ‘sense’ that the energy of that ‘person’ was also still with me. And I remember ‘apologizing’ to them for messing around with them in my dream – after I had woken up. And as soon as I did, that awful icky, burning sensation completely went away. It was the weirdest experience ever!

So I think we CAN and DO connect in real ways with other energies when dream!

Someone’s trippin balls

It says in point number 4 that you only see faces in your dream that you already know, I guess I’m curious or something because I have this weird dream that I’m with a guy(whome I didn’t know at all) in somewhere like a school court, and we are and talking about things like we already know each other then we started laughing. After that dream I was awakened and realized that I didn’t know the guy at all. Well it’s kinda creepy.

I had a dream within a dream. I was dreaming about me and my friend canoeing and he fell into the water. I dived into the water and attempted to save him and I slowly lost vision. I then woke up thinking it was weird and I went to go get some cerial (I think it was cerial) and there were the words ‘the floor is lava’ and I stepped on the ground and then I woke up again! Strange.

I had once dreamed that I was trekking in the middle of a forest and I wanted to pee. I peed behind a bush in my dream, and I actually peed on my bed. hahaha

I had a dream where I was running through a swamp being chased by something. I tripped and I saw this huge shadowy figure lurking over me. Wonder what it means…

I have died before but usually, after i die i change the perspective.

Have had several pre cognitive dreams. Strange thing is that the dream occurred about a hour after each incident.

Actually, his wife died in real life (reality) due to an idea he had planted in her mind while they were dreaming.

Me too! I’ve been seeing the same guy in my dreams for the past 3 days, and in it, there was something between us. Weird!

dreams have nothing to do with the past , present or future in terms of interpreting them as having a kind of a message . they simply express our worries and hopes nothing more nothing less !

when my father pased away i would dream of him . hug him and tell him people here say he is dead !! a few months later i would dream of him and tell him ” tell me i am not dreaming because i have already dreamt of your return” “and he would confirm that i was not dreaming . unfortunately, i would wake up and get frustrated again ! i realised that my super-ego was refusing the idea of my father’s death , which manifested itself in those dreams . now three years have elapsed after his death and it’s very rarely when i see him in my dreams !!

i don’t know why i have so real dreams. like i have been in it.

I dreamt I was in a restaurant with one of my friends with David hasslehoff we kept phoning his mobile and every time I rang he got more angry and his face began to sag his eyes became blacker and his teeth grew pointed everyone else in the room began to Stare at me but know one would speak only hasselhoff shouting everyone else beame darker and began moving closer towards me and my friend there were no doors so no escape eyes black hands crucked and faces dramatically ageing can anyone tell me what this means
I’m 22 male

I killed someone in my dream and busted out some serious karate moves. Then I ran into the woods and flew away. Weird.

I’m happy to say that I had a dream where I flew. It was such a wonderful experience and I can still remember it so vividly. I was surprised that I ddnt have the falling sensation but my tummy did twist. I did loopdiloops around like an old downtown city where they would hang there clothes between two buildings..

The best orgasms I have ever experienced have been in my dreams. Lucid dreaming is an amazing way to trigger these orgasms.

Last December, I was in the hospital, very ill, and in a coma. I had the most horrifying nightmares in my life. A lot of bad things happened in those dreams: my family rejecting me, people killing my friends and loved ones, demons and evil people, child molestations, an evil carnival mutilating people on the rides etc. It’s been months and I still remember those nightmares. I don’t ever want to be in a coma again!

I am recovering drug addict and the same thing happens to me except I used drugs in my dream and I wake up freaking out and thinking I broke my sobriety. Takes a few minutes to realize it didn’t happen.
