Author Topic: has anyone else experienced this before?  (Read 1856 times)


Yeah if you wake up in the middle of the night and you don't move or react and you just try to go back to sleep immediately afterward it's likely you'll kinda "pick up where you left off". I've heard of people exploiting this as a method to induce lucid dreams

Yes, it's like you open your eyes for a short time but you're still sleeping basicly.

There were very few times that I woke up in the middle of a dream and I sleep again to continue where it stopped.
macintosh plus started playing as soon as I read half of the first line

yeah sure idk lol
I mean for a brief moment before I awaken, I get to lucid dream for a short bit
I never remember them anyways

I once experienced an entire day within a false awakening
I woke up, went to school, went back home, did stuff, went to sleep, and then I woke up to realize that I overslept as forget

yea its some pretty crazy stuff

I have this thing where (because I'm very afraid of insects and spiders) I wake up and think I see a bee or a spider when it's not actually there. I'm not dreaming either, it genuinely looks like it's there and moving. It looks so real that if something is on my bed it almost looks like my bed has contours just to mimic the creature's weight.

Basically it's just a very very very vivid hallucination. It's only after I realize I'm hallucinating that it disappears (that or I loose track of where it was in the first place).

Like just last night, I wake up and I see this MASSIVE spider on my wall. To give perspective, I have a wall clock that is about a foot long and a foot wide. And the spider was just that big. It scared the living everything out of me. I even called my sister so that she could open the door so I could run like mad out of my room. Though after my vision cleared up I realized it wasn't there (though it did take a good 3 minutes before I actually walked towards my door).

Oh and there was this one time where I was dreaming about a zombie apocalypse and I couldn't wake up until I defeated this level I was on (as it was in a game). And I had to do it without dying as I was down to basically my last heart. Thankfully I did end up beating the level and I woke up, but by the time I did it was 11 AM.

literally happened to me about an hour ago.
i woke up, was still dreaming though, so i didnt really wake up, and i woke up in a crazy forgeted up version of my house
this happened like 3 times and when i finally did wake up i wasnt sure if i was really awake its scary

dreams are for forgetin nerds

This whole dreaming think you're talking about happens to me when I get barely any sleep throughout the night, I get to sleep at say 5am, wake up at 5:10 and go back to sleep and dream, and it continues.

I kind of do. It happens a lot more in mornings of the weekday. When the dream is going somewhere at it's climax, I get waken up by my parents. Afterward, I just fall asleep again and continue the climax or, may be a different dream.
