What's the last weirdest dream you had?

Post Reply New Topic

My mum was telling me that I spoke in a very autistic way ? and it was blatantly obvious I was autistic - ( cut to another scene ) My dad was sitting around a table of family members and he asked me to say something to prove his point that I was autistic , I saw red and said I'm not a performing monkey in a zoo.

^Omg that sounds like a very annoying dream.

I dreamt of fires and people hanging themselves in order to not die from fire. Happy fun times!

No—I wasn't aware that I was dreaming.

I remember a single lucid dream about that time, but all I experienced in it was seeing a small area of the ground, on an unspecified street. I knew it was either in the town where I lived then or in a city about a thousand kilometres away. Still in the dream, I remembered reading in real life a satirical story about a politically motivated arsonist who dreamed of witnessing events in that city, from several decades earlier, long before he was born. I moved slightly my gaze, but was somehow certain there was nothing to see but that patch of the ground, and didn't consider looking upwards, or even horizontally. I reasoned my dream world was in a very early stage of development compared with that of the arsonist.

Years later, I got a few more lucid dreams, this time by actively cultivating them. They were still quite short and simple, and I tended to feel as if my brain had to work so hard to maintain lucidity that I might as well be awake, because it wasn't getting any rest. Then again, I also remember feeling the cold window on my exposed arms, only to wake up and realize it wasn't cold at all.

that is a major accomplishment, to feel that level of reality in a dream.

Well, that wasn't an intentional manipulation of the dream world.

lucid dreaming is a gradient, you were on the lower rungs of it, the higher rungs have more control but normal dreams don't have feelings like you described. you were aware enough to know that you were working at it. I've never been aware enough to know of any volition in my dreams, like I was along for the ride only.

By the way, ...

... I meant the cold wind. Sorry.

somehow I knew you meant wind, that is how I read it.

Heh. Well, now I remember that while still dreaming, I thought the cold sensation surely meant the air in my bedroom was actually cold and I hadn't covered myself properly before falling asleep. I believed the wind and having my arms exposed was the excuse the dream had found to incorporate a sensation produced by a real stimulus. Fortunately, this was disproven as soon as I woke up.

The assumption that there was a real stimulus, in turn, was probably motivated by an earlier dream I told here once, which I guess was also very briefly lucid. In this dream, I felt the need to pee---which, in my experience, is very much always real---went to the bathroom, did my business ... and felt relieved. This immediately shocked me: I realized that when I peed under that kind of circumstances (read, in a dream, but I think I hadn't fully grasped yet that that was the nature of those circumstances), I never felt any relief. I put two and two together and concluded that I'd emptied my bladder in my bed. Then I woke up and felt the very real wetness

I think i'd have been rudely awoken once I rolled over on the wet spot.

during a catnap, I dreamt I was working for some kinda warehouse, I went out to various houses and picked up rental returns, and on the last job of the day, I was about to get back into the van, when in the distance I saw an apartment building on fire, and I heard my coworkers say, "hey, isn't that YOUR place on fire?" then I awoke.

Dreamt about cheating on a high school test

Dreamt I was tending goal for the Habs.
I was stopping one shot per second, triumphantly.

I think this reflects what I did that day, which was settle problems, one by one, energetically.

Dreamed I went to the doctor to inquire about a medical issue that came up

My dream was about me having to go to the dentist! That as no dream, it was a nightmare!

which end is worse- going to the dentist or to the proctologist?
