Sleep and Dreams Megathread - General

Man the dreamviews forums are... weird. I like this thread better.

All the forums and threads and guides all say the same basic thing, since Facepunch has a community we all know it's better to talk about it here.

True enough words, just suprisingly theirs more of a community feel in this thread then their entire forum dedicated to it.

Guys, I've fucked up my sleep pattern something bad. I've gone from sleeping at around 10-12 at night and waking up 5-8 in the morning to sleeping at 5-8 and waking up in the afternoon. I've been trying to fix this, and since I can't bring myself to sleep and earlier, I've been staying up through the day, but I've hit a wall at about 2PM and can't stay up much past that. What do I do?

only way ive ever fixed it is just grab some red bull and get your way till abouuut 6-7pm then sleep, your body should try to catch up on lost sleep and you'll find yourself awake at the right time

The other day I posted asking how people see their dreams - well I found out last night that the reason it always seemed like my eyes were half closed is because they [I]were[/I] half closed - in my dream I opened them and everything was clear. I also felt my eyes when I forced them open and could taste things, which is new to me. Woo!

I think I had a dream but I can't for the life of me remember it. I think it had something to do with the Matrix since I was watching it before going to bed. Can't remember anything from it though. Sucks.

I had a dream that involved a turtle. I don't remember anything else. JAKE. GET UP.

I am up [editline]04:41PM[/editline] I cannot for the life of me remember my dream. I remember the first 20% fine but then suddenly it all fades away

NOOOOO why

Hold on let me get the journal and start typing it up from there

I realized I was in a dream a couple of days ago. I remember saying out loud after I saw something weird happen "that seems like the sort of thing that would happen in a dream" which immediately sparked my lucidity. I've had lucid dreams before, but not like this. As soon as I gained lucidity I got a massive headache which made me fall over in pain. My vision got blurry and I began seeing all sorts of things from multiple perspectives without any connection between them. I suddenly got a sense of knowing exactly what I had to do, so I got up, turned around, saw a set of big, metallic double doors, opened them up, and flung myself into an empty, black void. I don't remember what happened directly afterwards. I do remember eventually finding myself fallen on the ground again, only this time on a floor apparently on the bottom of the empty room. There was a light on me but no visible source. I looked up and saw I was surrounded by completely silent robed figures. I told them I needed to wake up but instead everything went black and I lost my lucidity. I can't remember what I dreamed about after I lost my lucidity but I know that I did dream and did not immediately wake up.

WB Jake and Zin :v:

Jake, I figured that was going to happen. :< Should have warned you.

Wish I could wake up from REM all the time. So much easier to get out of bed and remember every dream in detail.

[quote=Dream Journal]Today I had the biggest case of dream block ever. It started off in an airplane. I woke up from slumber and looked around. I was sitting in the center of the cabin connected to another and was in first class. A stewartist passed by and hit my foot with hers. I groaned but ignored it not to cause a scene in the plane. I turned back to my left where the empty seat was. A woman walked and sat in the seat. It was my sub. She looked at me and smiled. "Hey sleepy head" she said softly. She kissed me hello. I rubbed my hands together. She started combing my hair with her hand. I was tired and didn't really care. I got up and went to the bathroom knowing she would follow. I got into it and shut the door. I waited a few minutes. She walked in. "Jesus how do people fuck in these things it's like a sardine can" I said to her. "Maybe they go on those flights to Europe and get the really big planes." she replied. "Uhuh, okay, so explain, what was that drawing Zin's sub showed you." I asked her. "You want to go straight to it now?" she asked. "No no I just want to know what is was." I replied. "Well I can't tell you but I can show you" she said. I sighed. "Okay let's see it" I said to her. She smiled and stepped out of the bathroom. I followed her. We were at the cliff area again, this time in an area with a cave in front of us. "Okay you may not remember the rest of this dream entirely but that's because you shouldn't even be seeing a lot of this" she told me. "Are you going to rape me or something" I said joking. She laughed. She gave me a hug and grabbed my hand. We started walking into the cave. |HAZY BEGINS HERE| I remember seeing 'AJ', my greatest fear, a gun in my hand, my sub crying, lava around where I was standing, wireframe in some areas, and another kiss and waking up[/quote] Have at you [editline]05:16PM[/editline] [quote=Dream Journal]Today I had the biggest case of dream block ever.

I was afraid of that. I shouldn't be interpreting this much for you, I'm moving it along too fast. At least your sub's smart enough to know to not let you figure this see it already.

Facepunch is dying :(

Why is everyone doubleposting so much?

I always fuck my sleeping pattern up in the summer

oh god that dream jake

What's so special about that dream Also facepunch has been defibrillated

Hey wait i need closure! i need to find out what the squiggles ment! :(

[QUOTE=kenji;24562127]Mornin' Tried meditation Doc, not as proficient at it as i hoped but my dream took a funny twist on it [/QUOTE] Dont give up! :science: It will help if you meditate properly and learn how to clear your mind, then tell yourself "I WILL remember my dreams" Last night was the first night I didnt meditate in like 4 days and I barely remember anything.

Gotta say meditation helped me more than say, eating the right food oO

[QUOTE=solid_jake;24568984]What's so special about that dream Also facepunch has been defibrillated[/QUOTE] That was more for my benefit than yours, I think. Ask Ellen if I'm helping too much or if you need to start figuring this stuff out.

Ze night is here, time to lucid dream if my hypnic jerk doesn't bitch about it again. My leg kept flipping out every 5 minutes last night.

Night man^ The BEST combination for me is: Banana Proper meditation A clear mind (This is the most important to me, I found that out last night.)
