The Dream Analyst

Re: The Dream Analyst

When I was in school I would dream of getting in fights and my arms would be too heavy to swing. I got whipped a lot in those dreams. As a grown man, I don't have many fight dreams, but when I do, I kick butt and am a much better fighter than I would be in a real fight. I guess that means I have more confidence to take on problems.

I also dream sometimes about my ex wife and in those dreams she is usually mocking me and I feel awful, but at the edge of my dream state I am realizing there is someone who loves me and usually by the end of my dream I'm making my way to my current wife.

Most vivid dream ever was when I was in a lagoon and a whale swam under me and pushed me up into the air. That dream made me a partial believer in out of body experiences because that dream felt 100% real. It was amazing and scary at the same time.

Re: The Dream Analyst

My father passed away last week.

In a couple of my dreams, he's alive and kicking and I don't even have a second thought about it during the dream, even though I'm fully aware of the situation.

Blzer, I think you will dream about your father for the rest of your life, and eventually those dreams will help you cope. I'm guessing right now they are painful. I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

Re: The Dream Analyst

I dreamed last night that my brother and I got into a Chevy Astro van that my parents bought when we were teenagers. I backed it out of my driveway and the we started going down the street at 45 mph - in reverse. I pumped the brakes, put it in neutral, pulled the emergency brake and shut the ignition off, but we kept going around my block in reverse at 45 mph.

I finally called 911 and got put on hold. So I told my brother to get ready, that I was going to try to crash it into my garage before we killed someone. I woke up before actually crashing it.

Driving a car that won't stop is a fairly common dream for me, but the going in reverse was a new variable.

My grandmother died 9 years ago and I still have those. We were really close. My grandfather died last year and I've had a few of those. For me I guess it's a way to experience them again even if it's in dream format.

Re: The Dream Analyst

Why can't I ever have dreams I like! My dreams make no sense. Even if I'm thinking about something specifically before I go to bed, I'll never dream about anything relating to that.

None of my dreams ever make any sense. If I could ever make sense of any dream I had, it'd probably explain awhole lot about me lol. Maybe I need one of those dream journals lol. I always thought about getting one,but am too lazy to write down anything after I wake up.

Spoiler

Random dream last night.....I was at a store trying to buy something,but there weren't any cashiers. I woke up numerous times throughout the night,but anytime I went back to sleep,it seemed like the dream just picked up where I left off(which I hate even more when it's not a dream I like) and each time,there was never anyone there, so I was just waiting the entire time.

Randomly just left the store with everything and nothing went off and nobody cared. And later on, I'm just back in that store,and there's a woman with her baby daughter(both of whom I actually know in real life) and some random giant teddy bear. Somehow that's how the dream ends....

Even weirder cause it was at a store I hadn't bought anything at in years,and the people I saw,have never even been to this store before(since they don't even live in my area).

Re: The Dream Analyst

Probably at least three times a week I'll have a dream that has my dad in it (as most of you know, he passed away in August). What's actually most interesting about these dreams is I am subconsciously aware that he is "back to life," like he had passed and somehow medicine had been able to bring him back, and we are just trying to make sure he will stay healthy from thereon out.

Another interesting thing, which probably makes a lot of sense, is that my mom and I moved in January... but any time I dream about him, I'm still in my old house. Like I said, probably makes sense that I can't dream of him in our new house if he's never lived here.

My dad passed away more than 21 years ago (when I was in 7th grade) and I had dreams like that periodically for years afterward. Like with your dreams, I was aware that he had been deceased in my dreams and was worried that he would go away again. I has similar themed dreams after my grandfathers and a great uncle had passed away as well.

Re: The Dream Analyst

The most vivid dream I've ever had was me walking in to a convenience type store, in the midst of it being robbed. The robber had a sawed off shotgun and his back was towards me, he was facing the counter. He seemed oblivious to my presence and I decided to try to be a hero. Well, he noticed me bum rushing him from behind, turned, and blew my head off. I instantly woke up and my head was tingling, like when your arm falls asleep and it's pins and needles. I sat up and replayed it in my (tingling) head and it felt so real. Really unusual because I don't typically remember my dreams.

Re: The Dream Analyst

I had a weird dream last night - I am laying in my bed and my bedroom door bursts open. I step out of the room to see why, and there is a midget demon and we struggling with each other while we both pull on something.

I have no idea what we were pulling on though.

I woke up after and went to the bathroom and when I came back my wife asked if I was having a bad dream. She said I was making moaning sounds she has never heard me make before. Once I layed back down, I felt hot, like flushed and mostly on my head. Was pretty weird.

Re: The Dream Analyst

I had a really vivid dream about opening up a mall and a hotel. What was crazy was I woke up a bunch of times and continued the same dream the whole time night. I don't think that's ever happened to me.

I know this is related to me opening a resort in the town I'm in and I also have plans on opening a shopping center as well. Not as big as what I was dreaming but who knows. Even in the dream I said wow I can't believe this, I must be dreaming and pinched myself and remember it hurting. Lol.

It was interesting the different stores and bars I had in there, I wished I wrote down a lot of the ideas that came up because I remember they were good ones.

Re: The Dream Analyst

Had a crazy dream last night, i dreamt that I got high on heroin. I have never touched the stuff and have no desire to do it. It's one of those dreams that has stayed with me all day, it was very vivid. I think the craziest part about it was when I shot up, I felt like I was high.

I guess that's the best way to get high, then!

Re: The Dream Analyst

I had a dream a few months back in which I had to shoot 10 people in a room, execution style, not too much unlike the group killings of ISIS. I'm thinking it showed me my fear of them, but it didn't show them at all. I used it as the subject for a story I have to write for school. I changed it around to make it a dystopian society.

Re: The Dream Analyst

As a kid (5-10-ish) I would have dreams me and my little brother (about a year and a half younger than me) would fight ninjas with ketchup and mustard bottles.

Lmao, I know. Just that's all I really remember re: dreams.
