We Deal In Dreams, discuss the corners of your mind! Options

Spinning off from a chat in another thread, this is a space to discuss dreams. Feel free to doccument dreams you've had, ask questions about interpretations, reveal some of your deepest darkest fears (yeh right), or just share some crazy-ass nocturnal adventures with everyone.

i dont know how to merge threads but +Ed+ had an interesting dream about ......ed.....which i thought was revealing. perhaps he'd like to repost it here?

im in too much of a rush to doccument an actual dream now, but a few years ago i decided to interrupt my obvious life-long commitement to smoking with a brief retreat into health and started wearing the patches. Holy crap, for a week i was waking up soaking in sweat and screaming. The nightmares were horribly vivid and terrifying. not like normal nightmares, but truly hellish. I discovered later after reading the information leaflet inside the packet of niccotine patches that "Night Terrors" were a common side-effect of this medication. They weren't kidding. never knew medication could actually create dreams like that. I had simmilar experiences with effexor but that was more hearing actuall voices while i was awake.

anyone ever had a lucid dream? These are dreams when you realise at some point that you are dreaming and can dictate every detail and outcome of the dream. It is a controversial phenomenon but has been well doccumented and can apparently be practised and controlled to a degree. I've only ever experienced lucid dreaming once. Basically i was in a large carpark and knew instantly i was in a dream, and that i could do whatever i wanted and it wouldnt matter. So naturally i decided to fly. And because it is a dream everything feels real so i was really flying, but with the benefit of having no fear of falling or dying as you do in a normal dream. I know i was laughing the whole time because i was very aware of the fact that i was in control and i allowed myself to wake up when i felt the time was right.

I had a massive weekend just prior to this experience which involved weed and it didnt go down too well. A physician considered administering anti-psychotic medication to bring me out of the psychotic episode i was suffering, but it didnt come to that for whatever reason. Anyway i had very strange dreams for a few days after that. But this was so much more than a strange dream, because i was in total control and knew exactly what was happening. Indescribable really.
