I used to have horrible night terrors, especially when DH was out of town. I would scream so loud I would wake our roomate up, and it got worse when we moved last summer.
DH works out of state from March-September, so I had to move to our new apartment alone. At that point I was having them almost every nigh - they got worse with stress.
One night I woke up and someone was standing the in the bedroom doorway, and I got up to slam the door shut and lock it. I woke up standing up, trying to lock the bathroom door. I screamed so loud I woke our neighbor....coincidentally, a cop. LOL. Embarrassing.
I ended up having a sleep study done, turns out my brain was moving too fast into sleep, and was beating my body there. That's why I always had those dreams within 15 minutes of falling asleep!
On a light note, I recently had a dream I was married to Charlie Sheen. He was very nice and respectful in my dream, LOL.
LOL I love how some dreams are so straightforward, like your number 4, while some are like...wow where did that come from...like your number 1 :)
I have a recurring dream where I'm in high school and I forgot that I ever signed up for Spanish class. Towards the end of the year, I realize I haven't gone to class all year. I run to my locker to try to get the books out and cram, but I can't remember my locker combination!
High school is so traumatizing :P
@Lindsay12.31.2010: That's kind of fascinating. How did they treat it? Did they give you ambien or something to knock you out all at once?
@berkie: I know, right! Sometimes I have dreams that I never graduated HS, and I have to go find my diploma or watch the stupid video to affirm that my college life wasn't based on a sham HS completion!
@JulesSchnooks: Isn't it crazy? It started suddenly one day, and would happen really randomly. Always the same scenario - I would wake up to someone standing in my room, and I always rememberd every little detail upon waking up. The people in the room never said or did anything, they were just there.
Yes, I ended up getting prescribed Ambien, which worked really well for me. I haven't taken it in about 6 months, and haven't had any weird terrors since then!
Ok so this wasn't my dream (I don't really ever remember my dreams, boo!) but I was on vacation with my family and my aunt and her family. So us "kids" stayed in one cottage and the parents had thier own. (I think I was 10 and my cousin was 24) So it was the middle of the night and I got up to use the bathroom. My cousin was on the pull out couch and I was trying not to wake her up so I was moving really slowly, I finally manage to get near the bathroom and all of a sudden I hear from behind me "Don't jump out the window..." and then she had like this little evil laugh after she said it. I was trying soo hard not to laugh. It was too funny. So I went to the bathroom and I was going back to my room and all of a sudden she starts yelling "MICHAELLLL SHUT THE HELL UP". I couldn't stop myself from laughing, I was cracking up and she sits up and was laughing cause she woke herself up. She couldn't remember what the dream was about. Whoever michael was, i'm pretty sure he would have ended up falling out that window lol!!
It's been 16 years and I still remember that like it was yesterday and it wasn't even my dream! haha :)
I used to have this recurring one that started when I was about 5 or 6. I was running down a wide, dark, endless street. There were sporadic streetlamps but they were incredibly dim and only produced the faintest circles of light on the pavement. And I was being chased by a man. I couldn't see him when I turned around but I could hear him huffing and puffing behind me, trying to keep up. And here's the really crazy part...he kept repeating, "Chestnuts, chestnuts," between huffs and puffs. So. Effing. WEIRD.
@berkie: That is so much like my dream, its the end up the year, I have barely gone to my classes and try to find my locker but I can't find it or I can't find the combination. i seriously have some variation of this dream at least 4 times a year. Normally right before classes start or during finals week. Terrifying!
@MissCallieJean: You should call your cousin and remind her of that. :) See if she remembers that night, and get back to me!
Sometimes I talk in my sleep and wake myself up by doing it. Sometimes I laugh, or more rarely, I will cry in my sleep and wake myself up that way. That part sucks. Laughing is always cool. That reminds me of another dream I had---
I live near Baltimore, and if you've ever been, you know about the city's over-passes to get in and out of the downtown area. In my dream, my sister and I were going up up up up a very steep overpass, but this thing didn't have jersey walls whatsoever. It was somewhat scary, and we wanted to get off, but there was no way to do it. My sister looked thoughtfully around us, and said, "I know what this is--- This is 'Sucker Mountain'!" I asked her to kindly explain what that meant, but before she could, we were at the top of the overpass, when suddenly, it turned into a giant water park ride, and we were going DOWN the road / waterfall, and getting splashed like crazy. Apparently, it was called "Sucker Mountain" because it posed as a normal highway, but by the time you realize it's an amusement park ride, it's too late..... Suckers!
I woke up laughing so hard at that stupidity. I almost forgot about that dream. :)
I used to have these "dreams" where I swear I was awake but hallucinating and paralyzed. Like I could read the time off the clock and I would wake up a couple of minutes later and see that the time I had seen was right. And I was always aware of what position I was in, like if I was on my back thats the perspective I had. It was always involve someone standing in my room. Except for the time it involved someone wearing a mask laying next to me. It didn't scare me though. At some point I would try to move and would realize I couldn't. Like in the mask dream I was trying to lift the mask up to see who it was. Eventually I learned that if I put all my focus on moving just one finger it would be enough to wake me up. Hasn't happened in awhile though.
ETA: Sleep paralysis! That's what it's called. I couldn't remember, so I looked it up.
Oh man, I've had so many strange ones....I'll just share my most recent one:
A couple nights ago I dreamed that this group of guys were harrassing me.They left and I told my husband about it. Then they came back and my husband punched one of the guys in the face while I stood by with my hands on my hips and a "see what you get when you mess with me" look on my face. I definitely chuckled over it when I woke up (my husband is not the type to punch a guy in the face :-P)
I tend to dream about work a lot, though. My husband has mentioned several times where I was sleep talking, once trying to get kids to line up and once teaching them how to wash their hands :-P
Some of my favorite dreams are ones where I laugh myself awake! I recently had one where my deceased grandpa was wrapped in pillows and was falling down and bouncing back up like one of those Bo Bo Dolls, and I was just laughing and laughing in my dream! I laughed so hard I woke my SO and I up; he was like "OMG are you okay?!?!" It was soooo weird!
When I was young though I had 2 separate dreams in which I died and then when I woke up I was literally paralyzed and couldn't breathe! I panicked each time and the first was the worst because I was about 8 years old and didn't breathe for about 30 seconds. Then suddenly I gasped for air! In the dream, I was in a tropical hut like in Jungle Book there was a cobra like snake that was talking to me telling me how he hated to do it, but he just had to bite and kill me. Well he did and then I woke up and was paralyzed! I don't remember the 2nd paralyzation dream.
Last night I had a dream that DH and I went to the airport on vacation. Then we decided we were tired, so we went home to find the cast of Jersey Shore in our bedroom... all naked and just hanging out.
We all got tired, so we went to sleep all together in 1 big bed. I snuggled with Ron... who was DH in the dream... really, really weird. Apparently, I need to find another way to spend my time other than watching trashy reality TV... :)
I dream SO much, every night I have really weird random dreams & some of them I get mixed up with real life.
1. DREAM: I was riding in the car with one of my best friends & she had the Narnia series book with her & she was telling me how she's always wanted to read the series & never got a chance to but wanted to read them before the movie came out. REAL LIFE: About 2 weeks after this, I asked if she finished her books when we saw the movie together & she replied that she's read the series like 5 times.
2. REAL LIFE: The dog I'm house-sitting is about to give puppies any day now. DREAM: I drempt 2 nights ago that she had one pup in a field in a shallow puddle & I ran up to the pup trying to save him from drowning & was in those membrane sac things but it was kinda solid & I had to try to cut it out & used scizzors & accidentally killed the pup. I won't go into details cause it was gross. I woke up thinking I killed one of the pups, but knew I'd never use scizzors around them & realized she didn't actually have the pups yet. Phew!
3. Dream: I was dropping off my friend & some random guy I had a crush on (in the dream, but I know I'm married in the dream) & so I don't want to drop off my friend 1st cause I don't want to be alone with the guy. So I try to take him to his house, but there's a ton of snow & can't get to his house. So I drive to the city limits & tell them they'd have to get a cab or something. But I feel bad, so decide to walk them home. The street turns into a steep hill & the guy gives me daggers so I can rock climb the street & him & my friend wait for me at the bottom of the hill. He tells me the daggers can't fall into the bad-guy's hands & the bad guy ends up rock climbing right next to me. The daggers turn into pens & the bad guy stabs me & takes my pens. I manage to take 1 pen back, it had a diamond in it (the rest were decoys) & I inject the diamond into me & it heals me (I didn't know it would heal me, but I'm thankful) & the bad guy blows up or disappears.
@LaurenK0105: I've heard that if you die in your dream, than your body actually thinks its dead & you can really die from it. This may be a total lie. But I wonder if there's some sort of correlation?
@JulesSchnooks: #1 this reminds me of the real life In high school in gym someone broke my lock on my locker and stole my purse and pant... YES THEY STOLE MY PANTS.... I remember not knowing what to do... I forgot my gym close and had to borrow these very short shorts from a friend. I remember calling my mom crying until she brought me jeans...
but my strangest dream was after doing a scary movie marathon I had a freddy kreger (or how ever you spell it) dream and in the dream he cut my leg... When i woke up i had a cut on my leg... still to this day i dont know how that cut got there...
I had a dream last night. It was nice. =)
Apparently I was now British, and Chelsea Davy gave me a bracelet, only this "bracelet" now meant I was betrothed to Prince Harry! Kate, and all the women in the royal family came to dinner and were getting to know me (to make sure I was royal-worthy) I accidentally put my elbows on the table and Kate said "ELBOWS OFF THE TABLE" (since it was an offense to the queen).
Then decided I was worthy, and crowned me.
ahhhh. I know I only dreamed it because I love the Duchess of Cambridge =)
Haha I love this!
When I was younger we lived in a house with a lot of attics. One happened to be a really short, square door that you had to kneel to get into. Anyway, I had a dream years ago that Michael Jackson (r.i.p. lol) lived in that attic. At the time he kinda creeped me out because of all of the surgery. So we tried to keep him locked in there so he couldn't get us. At one point I heard the door creek open and I saw his nose and face start to slowly creep out so we had to run over, slam the door, and lock it. It scared me when I first woke up but couldn't help but to laugh over how ridiculous it was.
I used to have crazy, usually violent, dreams all the time. I also had insomnia and both of these were worse when I was stressed. Since FI and I moved into together a year and a half ago, they have both pretty much stopped. But on the nights I have to sleep by myself, I still have them. I guess I feel safer when he is there.
1. I was babysitting for my uncle (who is actually my brother and single IRL) and his wife's baby. They left for the night. Well my uncle/brother came back and was trying to get to the baby to kill her. All I had to defend myself with was a pizza cutter. So I cut (sawed?) off his hand with the pizza cutter and a robot arm grew. This continued with various limbs and he was growing into a stronger robot killer. So I started trying to cut off the his head with the pizza cutter (roll, roll, roll) and that's when I woke up. (I told my brother about this dream and he told me I needed to see a therapist. I think it really freaked him out, lol.)
2. I was down at the lake that my family goes to IRL, but I was living in an old boat at the bottom of the lake with my family. Except that my family in the dream was a different race and had a million little kids. Because there were so many kids, no one else noticed that the little kids had started to disappear. I told my parents, but they didn't believe me. And finally it was just my mom and I left. We were standing on either side of a bar in the kitchen. I was in the kitchen, and she was on the other side in the living room, and there was a door to our left connecting the rooms. The killer came in and tried to grab my mom, so I grabbed her through the window of the bar and he tried to come through the door. I had to let go of my mom to keep him from coming through the door, so he grabbed my mom again. I let go to grab her, and he went back to the door. And so on. And finally I picked up a pair of scissors and stabbed him to death with them. I will spare you the gruesome details, but it took a while.
I also used to talk in my sleep. My friends once caught me flirting with a boy in my sleep. Ahaha, they teased me about that one for years.
In my favorite dream, I was sitting cross-legged on the floor of my new room, and I was slowly painting the wall yellow. It seemed like it lasted a really long time, but I never had to move from my spot. It was super relaxing.

Dreams are cool, if you can remember them. I have a few that I'll never forget. I enjoy hearing about the absurd scenarios the mind is able think up when you're snoozing at night, and I'd like to hear yours! First, I'll share a couple with you.
1) It was nearing Halloween, and two of my best guy friends and I went shopping for costumes. I was suiting up in the dressing room, and mid-change, my MOTHER comes from nowhere, says absolutely nothing as she steals my pants, and proceeds to flee the store. I was upset. So much so that I didn't even pay for the costume I was wearing. So not only did I look stupid as I ran after her, I was angry that she made me steal! I wanted my F-ing pants back. :) .........I had this dream when I was maybe 15 or 16. WEIRD.
2) The next dream had me driving around in my sister's little dodge jalopy with her. There was an accident, and while my sister was fine, I was injured badly enough to need my legs amputated. After said amputation, my family had an elaborate funeral for my legs, complete with a nice headstone and permanent flower fixture at our local grave yard. It was so strange. I woke up so thankful that day, that I went running immediately after I woke up. (Age 19)
3) Last night's dream: I dreamt I was at a grocery store whose shop keeper wasn't very attentive to the goings-on in his store. There was a leak in the freezer aisle, and a subsequent water puddle all over the floor. I didn't notice it until I slipped on the puddle, and landed right on my butt. I was in pain, and made certain to yell to the clerk I had fallen. I flagged down a witness, and made the person capture the evidence with a camera phone of the puddle on the floor, and me with the skid marks my shoes made. I thought how costly it was going to be to hire a lawyer, but how worth it it would be in th end. I'm not a litigious person in real life, but at least I have the presence of mind to protect my rights to liability in dream land. ;-)
4) I keep having vindication dreams about an ex-boyfriend that cheated on me in real life. He keeps crawling back in dream land, and I keep rejecting him while thanking him for being a jerk, because it ultimately lead me to meet my awesome FI. Then when he starts to cry, I hand him tissues and leave.
OK bees, spill it. What are your ridiculous dreams?
