I had a stupid dream once. I was in Pre K, playing wis my friends from... MIDDLE SCHOOL!? Oh well, I didn't question it and I threw up for some reason and the janitor got pissed and possesses me and I attempt to "Rocket Jump" (TF2 is so fun :3) and I blew up into a million pieces (literally saw a scientist come out of nowhere and put them in a machine and yelled out 1 million pieces) then the sky turned dark then I'm a 13 year old again and have a body and I perform a weird charm (saw pewdiepie play Corpse Party) and I go to another school that's creepy and a spirit talks to me in Russian and a guy yells DUMKOFTS and I wake up. The end.
I haven't had a non-horror dream in 3 months, they're all scary, I only have dreams with skyblockers and scary things.
Dreams are successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep.[1] The content and purpose of dreams are not definitively understood, though they have been a topic of scientific speculation, as well as a subject of philosophical and religious interest, throughout recorded history. The scientific study of dreams is called oneirology.[2] Dreams mainly occur in the rapid-eye movement (REM) stage of sleep—when brain activity is high and resembles that of being awake. REM sleep is revealed by continuous movements of the eyes during sleep. At times, dreams may occur during other stages of sleep. However, these dreams tend to be much less vivid or memorable.[3] The length of a dream can vary; they may last for a few seconds, or approximately 20–30 minutes.[3] People are more likely to remember the dream if they are awakened during the REM phase. The average person has three to five dreams per night, but some may have up to seven dreams in one night.[4] The dreams tend to last longer as the night progresses. During a full eight-hour night sleep, most dreams occur in the typical two hours of REM.[5] In modern times, dreams have been seen as a connection to the unconscious mind. They range from normal and ordinary to overly surreal and bizarre. Dreams can have varying natures, such as frightening, exciting, magical, melancholic, adventurous, or sexual. The events in dreams are generally outside the control of the dreamer, with the exception of lucid dreaming, where the dreamer is self-aware. Dreams can at times make a creative thought occur to the person or give a sense of inspiration.[6] Opinions about the meaning of dreams have varied and shifted through time and culture. The earliest recorded dreams were acquired from materials dating back approximately 5000 years, in Mesopotamia, where they were documented on clay tablets. In the Greek and Roman periods, the people believed that dreams were direct messages from one and/or multiple deities, from deceased persons, and that they predicted the future. Some cultures practiced dream incubationwith the intention of cultivating dreams that are of prophecy.[7] Sigmund Freud, who developed the discipline of psychoanalysis, wrote extensively about dream theories and their interpretations in the early 1900s.[8] He explained dreams as manifestations of our deepest desires and anxieties, often relating to repressed childhood memories or obsessions. In The Interpretation of Dreams (1899), Freud developed a psychological technique to interpret dreams and devised a series of guidelines to understand the symbols and motifs that appear in our dreams. THERE THAT EXPLAIN YOUR DREAMS
Time to be specific :3 1)(lil' backstory that may help understanding, this was just after I shattered my right knee) So I was walking down a normal street I know (not giving the name away because of possible stalkers) and all of a sudden out of nowhere came a mugger (repressed memories of last year [but that's a whole other story]) and well as it turns dark I knife was slowly sunk directly between my ribcage (this bit wasn't memory). I black out. I wake up and the street is deserted, meanwhile in my sleep I'm feeling phantom pain of the stabbing (if you've never experienced phantom pain I'm incredibly jealous) I'm limping down the street and I toppled into the road and felt excruciating pain in my knee as I fell. So at this point I can hardly move and am feeling legitimate pain from the broken bone IRL. I stagger to my feet and begin to walk forward and once again fall backwards into darkness. I reel myself falling for many minutes then hit the ground. I woke up at this point in a cold sweat and my leg in agony. 2)I've hung myself in a dream once 3)zombie apocalypse, half eaten alive 4)Shot in the face (after a broken nose IRL) (Details of the last 3 are a bit too visual)
