Re: Dreaming

I haven't remembered a dream in a long time but i know i have them because i wake up all over the bed usually with a couple of pillows on the floor. I usually can't control my dreams which suck and i never die. but one dream i do remember i came close to dying. i fell of a really high bridge and right before i hit the water i woke up but i could have sworn i heard the water splash. anybody know what this means???

oh i always have thoes twitch dreams where your body jerks. i did that once in class and i fell out of my chair.

Re: Dreaming

I remember most of my dreams. Somthing that bothers me though is how come with some dreams you forget them within 10 minutes of waking up. Somtimes i tell myself to "remember that dream" then i forget the dream but remember telling myself to remember and getting annoyied that i hadnt rememberd the dream. I love dreams, closest i get to escapeing. Has any one read "John Dies at the End"? Its a story on the internet, its awesome. The link is in the litrature forum, anyway i mention the story becuase in the book this guy says:

"You had this one early this morning, in the middle of the thunderstorm-"
"-In the dream, you were back with your girl Tina..."
"-and you come home, and she's there with a big honkin' pile of dynamite. One of those big cartoon plunger detonators, ready to blow. You ask her what she's doin', and she says 'this' and shoves down the handle and," he spread his hands in the air. "Boom. Your eyes snapped open. The explosion in your dream became the clap of thunder outside your window. So tell me, mon. Am I close?"
"-You see, you gotta ask yourself, mon. You gotta be brave to ask the scary questions. How did your mind, David, know the thunder was coming?"
"-The thunder came right as she dropped the plunger. Your mind started the dream thirty seconds before the thunderclap. How did it know it would be coming at that moment, to coincide with the explosion at the end?"

I just copyied what the one guy said. I think its a very good extract. It has happened to me. Many times before

Re: Dreaming

I like never remember my dreams. When I do remember them is when someone wakes me up. It is probably because the dream wasn't finished with its cycle. We learned something about dream cycles in health. When they end naturally you wake up in the middle of the night. Dream cycles vary in length. They can last hours or 30 minutes. When you wake up every 10 minutes you are experiencing short dream cycles or you have excessive amounts of sugar/caffeine in your body and have too much stored energy. REM is another reason why you don't always remember your dreams. I forget what REM stands for but it is a very deep sleep. If you fall into a heavy sleep fast your likely to not remember your dreams as your brain begins filing the days information quickly. If you slowly fall asleep and have prolonged dreams you will most likely remember them.

Yea....I only remember dreams that something good was going to happen but then I get woken up or fall off the couch or something.

I have problems sleeping, i wake up ever hour or so, thats when i can sleep. So does that mean i have loads of short dreams?

REM stands for rapid eye movement
