Weird nightmares

I hardly ever have dreams, but lately I've been getting them and they're all nightmares, but people say, "You have dreams every night, but you just dont remember them." bull crap

Why am I having these dreams lately?

P.S. I only remember one and it was bout zombies and futurama(weird).

Why have you posted this in the Aliens & UFO's forum?

u need to elaborate on the nightmares? im assuming there about aliens/ufos? or why would you post this?????

sorry bout it guys, my friend told me that it was probably aliens and that i should post it here, sorry

What kind of nightmares are you having? I love to hear about people's dreams, especially when there are weird things happening around us.

Hi Freaky.

If you only remember one may i ask why you refer to them like this.

"I've been getting them" "they're all nightmares" "having these dreams"

Sound's like more than one.

Can you go into further detail ?

I like my dreams - they're pretty damn vibrant most of the time and due to my preoccupation with videogames they get pretty intense sometimes.

Just last night i dreamt i killed a cross between a cyber-demon and a mancubus demon (both from DOOM) with a rocket launcher, it even had the DOOM setting of a small pyramid and an endless horizon, except real good graphics.

It's the NORMAL dreams that freak me out.


Still, probably the best dream i had was watching the armies of hell issuing forth from a Gothic-style citadel - that was a good one.

speaking of which - ever read any of the DOOM books?

They eventually go on about how all the demons and [profanity deleted] were actually just aliens from another dimension, and how the invasion of earth was part of some inter-dimensionary chess game between two races that didn't particularly give a [profanity deleted] about the human race.

I don't attach much significance to these dreams other than that i've played too many videogames in my time.

If you want to know more about dreams, it's probably a good idea to check out the psycho-somatic approach behind it; essentially it's your subconcious mind working in over-drive trying to get rid of excess energy, and as such you get vivid dreams most of the time.

When people say "Did this dream mean anything?" they actually WANT it to mean something, and ultimately it does to some extent (although rarely what seems apparent).

Funnily enough, my mancubus-slaying dream was preceeded by one about my ex-love interest - and believe me, i was far more freaked out by the ex-love interest than the giant videogame apparation.

Nightmares usually come with a deep sense of terror and possibly even anticipation, so if you're feeling this during a dream then chances are it's something you feel regrets over or a long-forgotten anxiety problem.

*is going to regret posting about videogames in dreams*


Er.. the guy has a point.. i don't see any real conspiracy going on here..

Do you feel your dreams are influenced in some way by people around you?

They are.

its just freaking me out cause i only ever usually have one dream a year( But back to first post you're just supposed to forget most, i dont believe that) and in the past 2 weeks they've more frequent and the only reason i said one of them is cause the others i forgot but i remember me waking up all sweaty and i remember my reaction from when i just woke up from the dreams

You do dream most (if not all) nights. You just don't remember it. Why's it so hard to believe this? Half the time, after waking up, I know I've just had a dream that I would want to remember but I just can't.

The reason why you're probably getting more lately is because you're becoming more aware of your dreams. The more aware of it you become, the more dreams you remember. This probably also increases dream lucidity.

If you want to try something out, you can try keep a "dream journal". Everytime you remember a dream write it down (just after you wake up) and try to remember as much as possible while doing so. This should help you remember your dreams and you'll soon notice that you do actually dream basically every night.

I still don't know why this is in the Aliens & UFOs section.

i always wanted to ask this are our dreams like reality i cant describe it but when we have a dream is it some mystical thing like we are actualy doing it but not physicaly like we are out of are bodies sorry its hard to explain though but i always wanted to ask that is it like acutal happening

Dreams are just images and events created by your mind while you're asleep. You are not out of your body while you dream. It's all in your head.

You can have what's called a "lucid dream" which is a dream where you are aware that you are dreaming. This sometimes allows you to take control of the dream. Some claim that lucid dreams can also lead you to experience an OBE (out of body experience).

You may have had an OBE and thought that it was a dream, but not all dreams are OBEs.

You can find alot of information on dreams & OBEs by using the search function at the top right.
