Literally always the same... "I’m so intrigued. I’ve just had a deeper think. I had the same recurrent dream from 9-15. It was about clouds, the ceiling in my bedroom opening up and the clouds literally coming down and suffocating me. They were filled with the stuff pillows are filled with, and I’d only get out of being suffocated because I’d randomly have a roller coaster that I’d escape on. Super odd dream and more strange that I can still vividly remember every bit of it. From 15-22 years old I had a different recurrent dream about a spider that would grow to become a tarantula. This was terrifying as I’d wake up convinced the tarantula was attached to my ankle and sucking the blood out of me. I’d be too frightened to take my duvet off in fear of a frantic being attached to my ankle. Haha! I started having recurrent dreams again in the last decade it’s super weird and prevents me from going back to sleep. In these dreams I always am unable to speak, scream, or otherwise talk because I’m sleeping but awake yet paralysed. These are nightmares more than anything else. | |||

I started having recurrent dreams again in the last decade it’s super weird and prevents me from going back to sleep. In these dreams I always am unable to speak, scream, or otherwise talk because I’m sleeping but awake yet paralysed. These are nightmares more than anything else.
I've only ever had CLP of recurring dreams sadly can't remember them now until they come around again .but did thread yesterday about what you see when you close your eyes. I can see things like a movies playing when I'm awake if I close my eyes yesterday morning now .I saw a brown rubber elephant going down the road sliding on its ass.
You mean before you fall asleep or anytime of day when you close your eyes?
I just closed mine to see. I only see darkness.
Anytime
That’s interesting. Does it immediately disappear from your mind the moment you open your eyes?
No its just like I've just watched a short movie but with my eyes closed I asked on my thread if anyone what other people saw when they closed their eyes I also see colours shapes and alsorts of things .another person said they saw things too but also scary shit .if I have bad dream I can say I don't like it in my mind and change the channel.
I can do something similar in a dream. It’s like the real me looks in at the dream me and says “you know this is not real? It’s only a dream”. "I always know its a dream if don't like I change it or wake up. | |||

"What's the longest you've stayed awake ? I've done 5 days not intentionally but after the third day all your senses are heightened you go from tired to very aware and the 4th day I remember seeing black shadows moving past me then the 5th day you start seeing strange things and that's when I took a sleeping tablet and went to sleep 72 hours for me. I was finishing a PhD thesis. I literally fell down walking to deliver the finished product, and after that slept for two days. I often go 35+ hours every few weeks nowadays. I feel as if everything around us moving at a snail’s pace, and I become hyper-fixated with everything surrounding me. " Know what you mean I often do 48-60 hours awake on a regular basis for work and balancing life .. but that 5 day pushed my limits really intrigued me though how it activated parts of my brain | |||

I go through moments of this where I stay awake for more than 24 hours. I did sleep, for five minutes. I cannot sleep anymore. I tossed and turned for hours after those five minutes. I gave up. | |||

"03:20 I was awoken by a Sex & The City dream. It featured (in no particular order) The ghost of Mr Big Carrie Bradshaw Miranda Hobbs Aiden Various exotic holiday locations in a “flashback” stylie Some bloke whose face I couldn’t make out but who was pertinent to the dream A suicide jumper (anonymous lady) Various police (dealing with the suicide) Architecture slowly spinning around like the inner workings of a clock ..
That's so cool... I've literally had one recurrent dream since 12, and it involves pumpkins... No idea why? Really fuckin weird
I had the same recurrent dream from age 9 to 15. So weird! I’ve never met another person who has years of a recurrent dream. Is it always the same or just always involving pumpkins?
Literally always the same...
I’m so intrigued.
I’ve just had a deeper think. I had the same recurrent dream from 9-15. It was about clouds, the ceiling in my bedroom opening up and the clouds literally coming down and suffocating me. They were filled with the stuff pillows are filled with, and I’d only get out of being suffocated because I’d randomly have a roller coaster that I’d escape on. Super odd dream and more strange that I can still vividly remember every bit of it.
From 15-22 years old I had a different recurrent dream about a spider that would grow to become a tarantula. This was terrifying as I’d wake up convinced the tarantula was attached to my ankle and sucking the blood out of me. I’d be too frightened to take my duvet off in fear of a frantic being attached to my ankle. Haha!
I started having recurrent dreams again in the last decade it’s super weird and prevents me from going back to sleep. In these dreams I always am unable to speak, scream, or otherwise talk because I’m sleeping but awake yet paralysed. These are nightmares more than anything else.
