Ever had one of those dreams that just sticks with you?

[AshyPhoenix]

I dream almost every night, but they rarely stick in my head for longer than half an hour after I wake up. However, I had a dream last night that I dropped my cat and broke one of her hind legs, and now every time I look at her I feel this huge rush of guilt. I know it was just a dream, but it felt so damn real that I can't help but think I actually did it.

How about you guys?

I had this really weird dream that was like a foretelling of my death. It was far in the future, I was a lot older, and I had this strange but elaborate and very plausible death scenario. Totally freaky.

I took a few minutes just pondering it after I woke up. Then I ran to my computer and listened to the the theme from Inception while I still had an eerie feeling.

A ton, I have dreams in a row like three or four and if I wake up all I have to do is think about it and i fall right back into it.



Some really fucked up shit has happened

That happens to you too?! I wake up a lot during the night so I'll have a string of unrelated dreams, then wake up and wonder what the fuck is happening.

[PreTTy PeTe]

I remember a dream from when I was ten when my nonna (grandmother) was chasing me just after she died but then I woke up.

I always wonder what she had to tell me.

I see no reason why this one wouldn't be precognitive.

In another thread, we spoke of lucid dreaming. Scientists have begun to notice that, very often, just before a natural catastrophe, many people have dreamed of it. In one study, a full 20% of participants had had drowning dreams just before Hurricane Sandy; no joke.

They hypothesize that it might work through some new science called "string theory".

@Ashy: cat dreams are very hard to interpret.

You're so full of shit.

First of all, this came around the time I was watching 1000 Ways to Die too much.

[refujiunderground]

funny you mentioned this because this morning that happened.

there were 4 jubbers (jub members in that dream) and they were all naked. not going to say who though. two of them were having sex. somehow, a sewage treatment plant scandal broke out involving hurricane sandy happened. i saw dirty water in there too. there was a warning about how the water was contaminated and nobody could drink it.

i used to have several dreams involving one of my teachers from college who would pop up randomly in my dreams. he would just be distant but at the same time, there was something that let me know that he was watching me and talking directly to me while he was with other people. i remember one dream like 2 years ago around the end of the fall semester. the class that i was in, there was a christmas party at somebody's house and i was flirting with one of the girls there from my class. well, i wrapped my arm around her and pushed myself over the couch joking with her. well, we were laughing our asses off and then i look up right next to the christmas tree and there he was just staring at me. he just stood there looking at me with the same look that a puppy gives to its owner, just looking at me.

the other dreams i had with him were in the classroom or a school setting where he was teaching me something. one time he said hi to me at my high school hallway like what am i doing in high school and what are you doing here?

maybe it was because it was my first year out of school. last dream i had with him in it had to be april.

[Axxess]

Most dreams I forget upon waking up, or within a minute of waking up. However, some dreams I'm able to remember for a while after I wake up; I make sure to write those ones down so I don't forget them.

A couple of weeks ago I dreamt that Nazis invaded my high school, and not even Batman could stop them.

[cgymike]

Yep - for years the baggage dream would pop up...I guess I was trying to get rid of stuff.

I see.

You didn't tell us that, though. Of course, it changes everything.

[G-Lexington]

Oh yes. Oddly, what happens in the dream is rarely connected to the...intensity of the dream. I've had some dreams where not much happened, but the dream was so intense that they affected me more strongly than dreams where seriously f-ed up stuff happened.

I sometimes dream of places I've never been...over and over again.

* The huge Mexican restaurant on the grassy hill with the patio with the Japanese lanterns.
* The airport with the walkways and lounges, and the planes that seat a thousand people.
* The really busy train station.
* The train tracks in the desert.
* The elementary school. Twice, the school was underwater, and swam between the classrooms, papers and whatnot floating by me.

^Me, too, Lex.

I have a recurring dream of donning Roman garb. On a narrow street sits a building with columns all the way around it. On the right sits a forest; all around the general vicinity sit a lot of tall trees. The building (a government building? a library?) closely resembles a miniature version of the Temple of Diana as depicted in illustrations.

When I dream of this building/setting, I hold an uncanny sense of "familiarity", in other words, I see a place that I have visited many, many times.

I wish I knew where this place exists (existed?) in real life. If I ever see a painting of it, I'll recognize it in a split second.

I had a dream that I had a girlfriend the other day. It was AWFUL!

[willsboy84]

Had a dream where I was struck by lightning, and ended in hell on a bed surrounded by flames. "Woke up", rolled over and was lying next to Satan. Actually it was "The Beast" from the tv series Angel, but anyway he says to me something like "You didn't really think it was gonna be that easy, did you?"...and then I woke up for real, just as he was reaching for me.
Laid there in bed for quite awhile, afraid to move just in case I hadn't actually woken back up. Shit had seriously freaked out for weeks, and I still think about it all the time.

So much this, but my dreams are very hard to recall since I'm insomniac so I don't remember what they are about.

[Scealle]

I used to dream a lot. I still do but not as much or at least i couldn't really remember much. Anyways back then I actually buy a few notebooks for me to write in. Since I used to have morning classes back in high school, the first thing I do when I reach the school classroom is writing any vague details about the dreams that I have had the night before. Nowadays since I tend to oversleep and or sleep back when I wake up too early, I couldn't really remember the details of my dream. But sometimes some of the events that happend in my dream is so real or so nice that it actually sticked with me for a while. Usually those sexual / wet dreams tend to stick with me more longer than usual ones. I used to have a recurring dream every week or so about my dream 'boyfriend'.

[USEDCAR]

I had a dream a few nights ago that i went back in time and i was telling the people of the past about whats going to happen in the future. It had to be around 2006 i was in a car with old High School friends people who i don't talk too anymore. And value city was open when i drove past the mall!

I must admit it was a pretty good dream.

[CupidBoy]

When I was 17 I had a dream that I was alone in the dark, and James Dean came up and embraced me. It wasn't sexual, I just felt a rush of love. That's the most impactful dream I've had that I remember. At the time I felt very sad and alone. I suppose my mind manifested support that I needed in the form of my idol.

I find dreams fascinating.
