Nightmares

[diva]

...or maybe just really realistic dreams.

I dreampt this morning that I was smashing some asshole's car window in (I think he'd written a really racist book or something, kept following my dad and I around in his car, so Ijumped out of our car with my cell phone to kick his ass), and woke up with my hand aching because I was pounding my fist into the wall and screaming.

This one time, I dreampt that I was trying to kick in a door to try and escape from someone, and woke up with my foot throbbing because i'd been kicking the coffee table. (I passed out on the couch)

The last time I came to visit my parents, I feel asleep with my mom on her bed..she said I woke up screaming twice and mumbled in my sleep the rest of the time. I was dreaming about my family eating all my food. =/

And last, but not least, I once dreampt that I was yelling at Jim about something in my old high school hallway, and woke up with my teeth firmly planted in his shoulder. The teeth marks lasted a couple of days, I think.



Anyone else have this problem?
:(

wwooow.. I would be scared to fall asleep beside you!!
I barely EVER get nightmares. Usually I dream of something really nice like beeing outdoors in some nice place with sunshine and stuff. Or I dream up some shit that doesnt make any sence with people I dont even know. But not scary.
Sometimes I get those dreams where my teeth just fall apart and fall out of my mouth, when I wake up I am clenching my jaw so bad that my teeth could actually break...
thats about it. :keebler:

I dont really get nightmares anymore, but when I was little I had something called Night Tares. Its basically where you have a dreama and you cant wake up. Your eyes are open and your screaming but you lying still and cant move, yea it shounds freeky.
My parents said they took me camping one year and I have a Night tare at the camp site and ppl thought I was being murdered so they send the camp ranger so see what was up LOL

But yea, I had surgery and then its all gone. thanks god.

Now I still have some dreams but their just like your falling and then before you reach the ground you wake up, this kinda dreams.

I hate em

I love the falling dreams
they're crazy
but one of my friends had that problem with the whole screaming in the night thing
its kinda creepy when you find out by being there when it happens

i used to know a girl who would laugh in her sleep. out of no where she'd just be laughing hysterical, and sometimes it went on for quite a while.

i get scary dreams quite alot. i blame my alarm for most of them. the most commonly happen after my alarms goes off and i hit the snooze button. then whatever dream i was having before turns really scary. the more times i hit snooze, the worse it gets.
i don't know if i scream, but i do talk sometimes. i've also punched myself in the face a few times while i was sleeping.

i've stopped sleepwalking..but talking i still do..and with some nightmares..i wake up and i can't breathe..dreams are weird..i sometimes wake up with scratches on my face..?

wut i hate is when i have a dream where i talk on the phone..then the phone actually rings and i talk..then later on..i can't remember which conversation was from the dream...

Im pretty sure what you are describing is called Sleep Apnea. Basically what happens is you momentarily stop breathing during sleep and your body tries to wake up, however your mind is still in a dream state so you cant fully wake up. Thats the most basic way i can describe it.

you don't start screaming with sleep apnea.

I don't think it's sleep apnea at all! and how would being in a dream state make you unable to fully wake up?

I have no idea how it works exactly. This is how it was explained to me by a good friend of mine who has it. But for all i know he could have his information wrong. Im by no means an expert on the subject.

I guess I'd have to dream first to get bad ones...

i hate the wierd dreams that you have where something happens in your day.... and then later that day after you wake up it really happens.... that really scares me... like just something simple and then you get like a crazy dejavu

[StOkerD]

Yeah, I don't dream much...but I've found that I do the most in the morning just before I wake up. With my radio on trying to wake me up, I lay there half awake half asleep subconsiously listening to the morning shows....and the things they talk about start happening or effecting my dreams....can be very interesting at times. Then later that day my roomate will be like "hey did you hear about that....yada yada this morning on the fox?" ... I'll be thinking to myself.....wait a second.....I just had a dream about that........( this is where it takes a couple seconds to realize what happened) ...Yeah that kinda creeps me out sometimes
