Nightmares?

[Frost]

Some people have a hard time remembering dreams, and I've even heard that some people hardly have dreams at all... Not sure how all of that works, but has anyone here ever had any reoccurring nightmares? Whether they're silly or scary or even strange?

 

I don't sleep very well at night, regularly.. But sometimes I'm able to force myself to sleep. It seems like I have this reoccurring nightmare that, isn't really terrifying as it is uncomfortable.

 

The dream starts where I am just floating in the air, on my back. I have my eyes closed and I'm humming. Everything is black. And for a moment I feel extremely peaceful. But then my heart starts to race, and then I'm sweating and can't breathe. And as I open my eyes, in the dreams, I'm on fire. But I'm not screaming.. however, it feels so real that I wake up in my sleep, rolling around and kicking the covers off me. Extremely hot. Feeling like I'm still on fire.

 

I've had this dream several times. Not back to back, but seperately. I didn't think it was possible to have dreams be so similar to other dreams, and to have them numberous times.

 

Does anyone else ever have a reoccurring nightmare? Or even just nightmares in general? If so, what do you think they mean? I feel like I'm left sitting here wondering why I would keep having a dream like that and why it makes me this uncomfortable.

 

Every time I have it, I can't go back to sleep because I feel very anxious. It's also not like it's really all that hot in my house either...cause I thought that, at first. X.x

With lucidness, its impossible for me to get "nightmares" as such.

 

To be honest, at times being awake is more of a nightmare to me then actually sleeping in the first place.

now that I think about it, I've never had a dream twice and I've never had a nightmare as well.... I remember most of my dreams clearly but I dont think I've ever gotten scared or anything XP

Maybe its because in your case, all your dreams to us are nightmares, but to you they are sweet

That sucks, dude. I hope it gets easier on you!

I've had a 'dream continuation' as well! It's super weird.. Like a story picking up where it left off. It's kind of cool though, if it's a pleasant dream.

I thought for the longest time that it was weird to remember any of my dreams, because so many people I talked to said they really don't remember their dreams, or forget after they've been awake longer than a few minutes. Sometimes I feel like I also get deja vu moments, because something will happen in real life that I could have swore happened in a dream... But that could also be me just forgetting what the dream actually was. Not sure.

My nightmares are about me being all alone and having no one to call friends or family, the nightmare only ends when i close my eyes to go to sleep at night.

I know the feel.

I've read somewhere that you forget 90% of a dream 10 minutes after you wake up but for me it's the exact opposite. I might wake up with blurry memorries of my dreams but remember them in more detail later on, althought I usually don't forget much. I usually only forget dialogues and stuff but the images are clear.

Also, deja vus are supposed to be moments that you think you've seen before because they feel familiar. If you REALLY HAVE seen it, I don't think you can call it a deja vu. I get those a lot as well and it's sorta creepy

I have a bit of anxiety about something like this, often. Even though there are people around me, I always tend to feel a bit lonely and the thought of being more lonely than that, is terrifying.

I'm not sure what it is, all I know is that it kind of creeps me out I'll see something and I'm like "...didn't I dream this?"
