Dream thread

Um wat..

How do you even remember that o.O

I don't remember the last time I had a dream..

I guess my dreams mostly come out as stories. That actually wasn't a very long one. It just looks long because it takes more words to describe what's happening and explain what I'm actually seeing. Did you actually read the whole thing? Because I was expecting "TL;DR". I remember dreams fairly often actually.

i had this nightmare a while ago, and lots of it have gone from my head, so i filled a bit in from my imagination.

i was in school sometime during the second world war and it was pitch black outside, there were gas masks around everyone's necks and everyone was silent with fear. suddenly the sirens started screaming and other kids screamed and started crying, all the lights went out and it went silent.
the drill for bombings was to divide between the 2 small classrooms and huddle together around the outside desks of the classroom and hide, as a horrifying man in a black costume and a gas mask with red eyes walked around making sure no child was out of place. He was meant to be as scary as possible and carried round a gun to kill anybody who disobeyed orders. I shivered with horror and a tear rolled down my face.
suddenly a immense sound from the sky rang in my ears, the sound of many German bombers flying above us. The man with red eyes patrolled round the desks striking fear into all the students making sure they weren't going to turn on any lights, as it would have alerted the bombers. A few minuets past and i started to relax, when suddenly an ear-piercingly sharp whistle came from the sky, no more than half a mile away, i knew there would be fatalities.
Then suddenly a massive bang erupted from the ground and a shock wave shook the desks, the crying became louder and a few screams came from the other classroom.
Instantly they were ceased as the man with red eyes appeared, abruptly, there was gunfire from somewhere outside, a window smashed in the classroom i was in and some of us, including me, got up to run into the other classroom where the Warden was, as soon as we stood up, however ; the man with red eyes pointed his gun at us, i scampered back to under the desk and held my head in my hands, praying for it to be over.
i heard the heavy, low breathing from his gas mask and felt it against my face, the red eyes illuminated the area arround me and i realised he was staring at me. i looked up to be greeted with a gun aimed at my head, and the red eyes of the warden glaring at me.

i woke up

i had a lucid dream last night, i have been waiting ages for a lucid dream but i barely remember any of it. it was set in a milk factory and there were prison guards chasing me, i cant remember anything else

I barely ever remember my dreams, but sometimes, I see something in real life that seems inexplicably familiar. I think that often, I dream about things, then forget the dreams, then see things in real life that remind me of the dreams I can't remember.

I was at a scrapyard and there lay 7 prototype (failed) 4x4x4s. Some have pieces missing, and they lay among scrap metals.

That's me especially on tests at school.

Whoa, scary.

I had 5 nights of dreams last week. I think the most interesting one was when I looked outside and saw about 40 baby orcas beached on our front lawn. I was going to call someone to come and do something about it when I went out my front door and people were already there and loading them onto trucks. (That's the dream in brief.)

I was at a talent show, and it was my turn. There was a cube on a table in the front of the stage, so I picked it up, gave my introduction, and solved it. Apparently, I got a sub-5 solve, needless to say. I was so overwhelmed (including the audience) that I got dizzy. The floor then started to transform into a podium, and a was on top. They then gave me a bag full of Pyraminxes for the 1st place prize. The End.

 

[Coolster01]

All I can remember from last night's dream was skyping with antoine and then I was walking around and I saw him and his bro on a horse in real life. So I hung up and surprised him and then we walked into the mall. it literally makes no sense, but hey, it's hilarious.

I've spent my entire life mostly having nightmares or dreams I really would have preferred not to remember (extremely disturbing themes), but I would say 99% of my dreams I don't remember at all. About a year ago I started to pick up bits and pieces of dreams that weren't awful nightmares or disturbing visions, but just every day occurrences slightly warped.

I had my first lucid dream last night! I'd detail it out here but it's fairly inappropriate, I mean, it was my first lucid dream. It was set at a US National's competition, which was weird since I've never been to one. But the dream was quite fantastic. I didn't take the opportunity to do anything impossible in real life, like flying, but definitely things occurred that are unlikely to happen in real life. I woke up in the middle of it but was able to patch it back up and fall back into it.

Hopefully I can continue the lucid dreaming :3

Hmmm... inappropriate huh?

I'm not really sure if I've evr had a lucid dream... I think I remember one where I knew in the dream that I was in a dream.

 

[IRNjuggle28]

I'm not really sure if I've evr had a lucid dream... I think I remember one where I knew in the dream that I was in a dream.

As soon as I realize that it's a dream, I wake up. Although there was one time where I managed to realize, and not wake up for what felt like about 10 seconds, but time is hard to measure while dreaming.

Never have inappropriate dreams, either. Kind of boring.

 

[sneaklyfox]

I do have inappropriate dreams...

I also have lucid dreams often enough, and when it's not completely lucid (like I can control everything in the dream) I usually still have fairly high control over many things.

 

[Thatoneguy2]

I've never had a lucid dream either and really can't remember any of my dreams from the previous few days, I just remember parts of them right after I wake up. Apparently you can improve your dreaming or whatever buy just writing them down after you get up in the morning buy I've never really been interested in that.

 

[sneaklyfox]

I remember a lot of my dreams very often. And sometimes my dreams are very very long like a whole story with all these details that I can see and remember in my mind's eye. If I were telling someone I almost always shorten it for the sake of the hearer. Otherwise it would take a really long time to describe everything.

A few nights ago I dreamed that I was an archangel. But more like one in a fantasy movie where I had special powers and was in a war and I could fly really fast and become invisible and fight with a sword and all that stuff. I had to go in the enemy's stronghold and smuggle out a very important piece of technology. It had something to do with communication and it was about the size of a walnut. There were human agents in this building and they couldn't see me and I could even hide in the walls. Once I got hold of the technology, I was trying to get out of the building without anyone catching me. But they were chasing me not because they could see me but they could see the little metal object I was holding floating in the air. I slipped out the glass doors and all that... I guess my commanding officer, maybe a captain of archangels met me and told me to follow. We started flying back to wherever the angel headquarters were. It was nighttime. Suddenly, he told me to fly faster because we were being chased by the "overlords". But we couldn't outrun them. There were only two of us and apparently many of them. I knew they were hot on our tail even though I couldn't see them. We didn't have any choice but to destroy the technology I had in my hands. This way, even though we couldn't use it, at least they couldn't use it either. After I destroyed it, they stopped chasing us and we got back to our headquarters...

There was more to the dream about how I actually got the technology and more afterwards where I was in another building made of stone and hiding in the walls because it was actually a prison. I think I was trying to get someone out of jail without the jailer seeing. Aaaanyway... too long to describe that part...

 

[Randomno]

I just wake up from dreams thinking...

Wait, why did x character respond to that with y?

And all other sorts of problems that made sense whilst in the dream.

 

[goodatthis]

I often wake from dreams disappointed in some way or another, for some reason, even if it's a bad dream, I'm almost dissapointed that I'm back to reality. Kind of weird.

I once had what I thought was a lucid dream once, basically I was walking towards the couch that I had fell asleep on, and I realized it was a dream, and I could actually control my movements. I woke up very soon after.

does anyone know if theres a way to "will yourself" into dreaming? I never have dreams (or at least ones I remember), and I'll only have a dream I remember maybe 2-3 times a month, tops. I probably have about 5-8 "big dreams" a year, the others are just wisps. It sounds strange, but I like dreaming and I wish I could dream more often.

 

[Deathranger999]

Well last night I had a dream that I found out on the day of my audition that I had actually been practicing the wrong piece. Then I somehow realized I was dreaming, and the person judging my audition took me to the nether in Minecraft so that we could then go to the End...yeah IDEK...

The rest of what you said sounds extremely familiar to what I used to experience. Over the past year my dream recollection has improved, but I spent a lot of energy on all sorts of sleeping/dreaming techniques. Dream journals, listening to brain waves while I slept, checks during the day, and other things I can't remember at the moment. I probably spent about 18 months rigorously trying to enhance my dreams to no avail. I've heard others say various techniques work for them, but nothing seemed to work for me. Personally, I think I know what sparked my own ability to recall my dreams but it's still such a faint ability so I'm hesitant to draw any conclusions. I know some people have said that adopting an unusual sleep cycle (like uberman or everyman) or taking more frequent naps help with their dream recollection, but that's the best advice I can offer.

My lucid dream happened on a completely ordinary night and I didn't even do any "checks" in the dream. I simply realized I was dreaming because the premise of the dream seemed so bizarre to me that I figured I was in a dream and as the dream progressed my suspicions were confirmed. It was also the most vivid dream I've ever had.
