Nightmares

[Paddy Blake]

I have some that make any horror film nice.
Usually involve my brothers dying(two are dead)and me trying
to save them but never works out.
Last night I was lifting my bros body around after he was hit
by one truck and run over by another.
Not much left of him but I carried him until his heart stopped
.

I have these dreams every week.

Now when I wake up at least I am ust to it and know it
is not real.

When I was a child I used to have a recurring nightmare about going swimming in the sea with my little brother. He was in a sort of rubber ring thing. I turned away for a moment to look for my parents, and when I looked back, he was gone. Just the rubber ring.

I hated that dream so much. No idea what it meant.

[Hetzer]

Just about every night I dream I'm in some kind of prison. The variations on the theme are quite mind blowing. Very occasionally they're so real I'll wake up and think it's real for a few seconds. Which is kind of cool because the realisation it's not is a proper buzz.

Wouldn't swap them for yours Paddy. Hang in there dude, they're not really dead, they're just not here.

Well that was my nights sleep since my last post with more crap dreams.
Have a smoke now and try sleep again but the last part of sleep is usually worse.

I have thought of writing my dreams down before but then
I would remember them longer,that's not something I want.

I am getting to know that these dreams are not real in dream time
If you know what I mean and just wake up sometimes.
Leaving it in the past.
But some will never leave me because I blame myself for my brothers dying.

It's been a good few months since I've had the "murdered someone" dream - which was recurring with tedious frequency. I've mentioned it on another bcf dream thread, but succinctly, I wake up with a sense of absolutely crushing guilt, and the vague memory of killing someone - perhaps a long time ago. And having somehow managed to repress any memory of the event. However, some police investigation or other manages to link me with the crime and gradually my memory returns and I know, believe and accept that I'm guilty.

On waking, I do actually have this belief - for several long minutes...and then as I start to realise it WAS only a dream, the sense of relief is immense. A bit like with hetzer's imprisonment thing.

I used to have a recurring one when I was a kid, that I was being chased around my parents' old house by either pirates or murderers, basically "scary people" - sometimes even what I now recognise as pikeys, although never specifically monsters.

Often they were carrying carving knives and the fear in the dream was terrifying, but I never managed to wake myself up ... they always caught up with me just as I was crouched behind the same door, between my parents' living room and their dining room.

But then either the dream stopped OR I woke up before they could get me. It was just that heightened sensation of "being caught".

Somehow or another when we were teenagers, a conversation occurred between myself and my two younger sisters, and it turns out that all three of us were having the same dream. We were all chased to exactly the same door in the same room, and then the dream ended in exactly the same incomplete way. Weird!

I always get them when a close friend or family member is seriously ill or waiting for results on tests from the doctors and it's every night. It involves that person and normally the feeling of grief,sadness and most emotions when someone is dying. But as everyone is saying hang in there mate it won't last long or read a magazine before bed to hopefully put you in a different mindset.

I had serious nightmares, really horrendous ones that made me wake up screaming, when I used Naproxen as pain relief.

Check what medication you are on (if any), otherwise its a check up from the neck up at the nut doctor.

I used to suffer from quite extreme night terrors, would wake up in the kitchen, screaming and thrashing around, attacked my ex girlfriend a couple of times too in my sleep (I was asleep, honest guv)

Worst one I had was waking up in the kitchen trying to unlock the front door; to escape from the skinless writhing screaming bloody zombie i'd just woken up next to.

Was provoked by overly spicy food, eating late at night, or just general stress levels. I used to routinely wake up and still see whatever was chasing me round in my dream in the bedroom for a few seconds until I woke up properly, big doberman dogs, crowds of people, giant spiders, and one time I swore blind Baron Samedi was in my room...

I used to get a lot of sleep paralysis amongst other bedtime nasties.

Ordinary Dreams:
Strange re-enactments of un/-subconscious memory related to our daily lives and/or repressed memories relived.
It is also defense mechanism of ours to predict and hypothesize scenarios, and/or day-dream scenarios which may also be thrown in the mix.
(And/or perhaps even previous lives, or the lives of others dredged up from the vast abyss of unconsciousness which is also the realm of psychic phenomena)

If you've ever experienced realities while in lower levels of consciousness/sleep which are inescapable situations/nightmares. (Realities are different than dreams, even life it's self in the waking state is reality)
These are malevolent beings.

There is also the incubus and succubus of which I have never encountered.

Then there is sleep paralysis. (Also often thought to be the activities of malevolence)
For me, sleep paralysis is a clue, a bit like temporal placebo on the mind - thus mentality) - Just ask your demonic doctor.
You dream you have to wake up from the nightmare your in, but actually dreamed you woke up in the same nightmare from which you had to awaken from again.
Spiritual faiths suggest we can awaken further from our normal relative awakened state, because when we're awake, this is just an extension of our sleep time dream state.

"Nothing is as it seems. Nor is it otherwise."
Lankavatara Sutra - Mahāyāna Buddhism

(But of course this takes much conscious effort, look within and not outwardly) - Be very wary of the stage!

Quotations from The Bible a Mystic and a Sage.

Ephesians chapter 5.
14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

“Sleep not"; "Awake, for you know not the hour"
George gurdjieff (September 26, 1898 – July 11, 1937)

He who is forgetful of the Self, mistaking the physical body for it, and goes through innumerable births, is like one who wanders all over the world in a dream. Thus, realizing the Self would only be like waking up from the dream­wanderings.
Sri Ramana Maharshi (December 30, 1879 – April 14, 1950)

Self-Knowledge is the basis of our true being. The ignorant do not have it, and hence they are so called. ASTAVAKRA SAMHITA – Chapter XVIII - P150

There is reference to suggest we the children once knew God.

First Epistle, John 2:
13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.

◄ Mark 8:18 ►
Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don't you remember?

2 Thessalonians 2
5 Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? 6 And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time.

I often have dreams that I'm sitting on the toilet, doing a shit, and all the shit is going everywhere, and everyone is watching. It's not necessarily a nightmare but it is a recurring theme!

I smoke cannabis on nights and it prevents me from dreaming. On the odd occasion I don't smoke I dream. I think it's something to do with REM sleep?

Not a dream as such, but when I was ill and had a high temperature as a kid I used to hallucinate

I used to always have the same one to begin with. At the bottom of the garden, part of a neighbours garage came into our garden and was surrounded by a fence. I always used to hallucinate that I was between the wall of the garage and the fence and used to go into a panic and it used to feel extremely claustrophobic.

I find it strange as I'm not claustrophobic so it's not really playing on my fears...

I had one the other day that horses got this virus that makes them eat people. Was walking through a town at night and saw two horses attack a man then stand there eating his skull then his brain. The setting then switched to some lab where they were trying to figure out why it was happening, then a load of horses broke out and ran down the corridor eating people and trampling them. It was shown in a news report style.
I blamed it on codeine before bed.

LOL GhostRider, come round to the other side, it's great round here.
The NHS give you free massages and everything.

I've heard from reliable sources that Cannabis in excess can temporarily stop you (remembering) dreaming...

Some would call this a negative, in your situation, a positive?

[krarkol]

I used to be on propranolol and the first few weeks I had normal dreams (weird things happening, but not particularly abnormal)

The difference was, they felt more life like!

A friend had knee surgery and had morphine, so he let me have some before I set off home. That was the weirdest night of my life! Waking up and still dreaming etc
