MOVE!!!" I usually get a really loud roaring in my ears when that happens..like a train is coming!!!

One dream in particular I can't get out of my mind. I was having trouble sleeping several years ago and I took Melatonin. That night, I had the most vivid, realistic dream ever and it wasn't fun! In the dream, I and the other villagers were being chased up a mountainside by several Tyrannosaurus rex. It felt three dimensional and frighteningly real. I woke up scared and breathing rapidly, but thankfully before any of us had been caught by the T-rex! I never took Melatonin again. I don't usually think about my dreams as having any specific meaning, but more along the lines of a computer rebooting or running diagnostics, etc. while I'm sleeping. I have noticed that most of the time when I recall a dream, I notice an element (a person, place, event, etc.), sometimes a tiny detail or a word, in the dream that actually occurred during that day. |

Jason T Posts: 7421 Joined: 14th Apr 2004 Location: UK | quotePosted at 14:47 on 12th March 2009 I always think dreams are just subconscious thoughts while your sleeping, things you've seen during the day, maybe not payed any attention too, any thing really!! just random thoughts and feelings. Sleep paralysis is just your body switching off so you don't act out your dreams! but you can come round a little, and still can't move!! it wears off after a while but is the scariest feeling!!!!! |
