Your Dreams While Sleeping

<< < (2/3) > >>

Often times I don't dream. I know that technically it's just you can't remember it but if I do it's just darkness or black, anything to a degree where I can't see and it's silent.

If I DO dream it's either a geographically rearranged version of the city I live in or a nightmare of some sort.

8 out of 10 times I just fall asleep and then my alarm goes off and the next day begins. There is no intermission for me :(

I have had multiple dreams of me getting good deals on games, though most of my dreams could be turned into horror movies.

If you have a lot of nightmares than the solution to the problem can be just pray to God or Jesus before sleeping, I don't mean to get religious on people that are probably not, but I found out if I just believe in God or/and Jesus it is not frighting.

 and no there is  no catch, you don't need to go to church every Sunday. you can listen to whatever music you like and play whatever game you desire, watch whatever you want or read. God and Jesus are not as picky as some churches or some preachers try to make them look like

It is good to pray, it's also the best advice I can give because I care.

When I was younger, I had a long gaming session with Rush n Attack on my NES. That night, I dreamed I was in some kind of school gymnasium alone during sunset, dressed in a military uniform and armed only with a knife, hiding out from bad guys.

I’ve had other dreams about games, usually after I’ve played one game for hours, but I normally can’t recall the details. This Rush n Attack one just stuck with me for some reason.

Usually in my dreams the world is suffocated by an impending death, a darkness like a cloud sometimes.  It isn't visual but it's a feeling and it's extremely cold.  The world envelops you and makes you feel at home with it but it's kinda like being in a warm blanket in a serial killers garage.  It's inviting but you know you rather not be there.  Usually the world is in a darkness, and sometimes things are normal, even happy, happier than my actual life but sometimes their is monsters or pain.  I would consider my dreams extremely active and very vivid.  I dream a lot because i have sleep disorders involving my breathing. Sometimes I kill things that hurt me (my uncle) or sometimes they kill me.   


When I was 6 it was halloween time,  and the serial Killer "Ghostface Killer" from the movie scream came to me in my sleep.  It was so vivid it was like he was really standing in my room.  I remember it like it was yesterday.  It couldn't have been a dream.  Sometimes I think that universe and my universe are intertwined.  Like i'm already dead and all this is a different world than where I'm from. He crept and I screamed but he drained the life out of me and I was helpless and I began to float.  I woke up choking and I thought I died.  All of this was probably a hallucination brought on from choking in my sleep from acid reflux and sleep apnia.  A horrible night terror as you can envision things that arent there.  Some people consider it communicating with other parralel planes of existance with your mind during a sleep REM cycle, and your mind sees whats on the other side from being deprived oxygen.   From that day on I was always scared of the movie scream and him. 

He comes only rarely in my dreams now, usually impossible to stay strong and fight him,  I usually run in terror.  Lately as I get older I stand tall. The last time I saw him he came to me with my dead grandmother.  I think he's my grim reaper and represents some sort of frequency with the place we go when we die. 


As a whole night terrors "Sleep Paralysis" is common with people,  and it happens at least 5 times per year for me.  Usually I don't see things.  And sometimes it's not too scary. Sometimes I do see monsters or feel the presence of a evil monster.  But I use a sound or a static from a tv or a wind to guide me back to my room and then i'm home and i'm free.  But sometimes it's a struggle to break free from my dreams. 



This is what it feels like,  shadow man standing behind me usually. I wiggle out of it.  Not scared of him though. 


As for good dreams, which can also be very good.  Usually envolve winning lottery or doing fun things like conventions or being successful in talking to a crush and things.  Those are always great :)



To keep on the topic of game related dreams though,  when I used to play call of duty 10 hours per day and I really no lifed it,  I used to see online players running when I closed my eyes,  i'd twitch out of a deep sleep because I was trying to shoot targets in my head.   The images were engrained in my muscle memory.   People experience this with tetris and it's actually called the tetris effect.  From playing tetris so much they'd see blocks falling in their sleep.  Pretty neat :) 


Thanks for sharing OldGamerz,  this is a interesting topic.  :D
