dreams/nightmares


hi

last night i had this reoccuring dream i have all the time, basically im being chased through a multi level house which has tight twists and turns, the buildings are usually like old english bed and breakfast style buildings, or they are like small schools or colleges, basically multilevel with different options of where to escape or hide. last night i escaped! \o/ i was in a old english bed and breakfast style building, and as i was running around this house trying to get away, and i was aware the people chasing me were coming from below, so i was having to go further and further up, untill i saw 2 old ladies and i asked them where to go, and they showed me a door which was like a back way out of the building, so i went through it, down the stairs and out, into a different environment, it was like a company yard, and there was lots of workers just walking around, so i walked normally away from the building, i could sense i had got away and i was totally elated. after walking away some distance, i suddenly found myself on the roof of a small building on an industrial estate looking down on the people that had been chasing me in the house, after another brief chase, i ducked behind a wall and they ran right past me, and i ran the other way, i escaped twice! i usually get caught and wake up feeling like crap, but i got away twice in one night
ofcourse, i think ive got anxiety issues or something

can try hiding yourself under a carrot tree ... it worked sometime ...


ok , seriously ... if one morning you wake up with dollars in your hands after a good sleep(as how you thought) during the night ... i think you need some serious soul searching or things like that ...

What about the dreams where you are falling and you wake up, still thinking you are falling? Those are fun.

Wow, that seems like it'd be an awesome lucid dream.
I don't really seem to dream that much, but when I do, I'm usually at a sale run by my school, but not at my school, and I have no pants, but noone cares...
scary......

I've also had OOBE's before, it is actually real but needs a lot of mind control as it becomes very scary to attempt.

St.Jimmy, ive had those lucid dreams where i was being intimidated with the threat of violence by a person in the dream. at the end of the dreams i would wake up sweating and anxious, and i got so sick of it, that before i went to sleep after that, i would say to myself "fight him, its only a dream, i control the dream", and one night when i had the dream/nightmare, i wasnt afraid at all and i stood up to the person that was intimidating me, and i fought and won, since then i dont have that dream very often at all, i think it helped.

s.o:Sweet, closest I ever got to that was looking in the mirror, and kinda feeling distant from humanity, and I'm all like "F*ck!", and it's like I've never really grounded myself to reality...


I reeeeaaaallllyyy need to stop listening to trance and electro.....

Lay off the choco-mint-fudge-swirl ice cream, and bag of Doritos before bed.

Or, lay off the acid.
