What dream or nightmare sticks with you still to this day?

[AnonymousHouseCat]

Thank you! This is interesting! Yeah, usually I'm just chillin' on the bus and I'm the only one on it, but there have also been a couple where I have to plan a class field trip, and on the way back, for some reason there are enough seats for everyone but me and I have to stay behind at the field trip location.

The most recent one was kind of silly: I dreamed that I had spent a long time training with a kung fu master on some remote mountain. Finally, he says, "I have taught you almost everything, so now we can move on to the last, most important lesson: I need you to get on that bus over there as fast as possible!" So I get on, and it drives away and the kung fu master just waves goodbye haha.

But yeah, I've definitely had a lot of important decisions to make over the past couple of years, and my tarot cards have also been telling me that I have to decide now whether I make my own decisions or let someone else make them for me.

I've had some prophetic dreams along the way. End of days kinda stuff. Some dreams are full-length movies. Some are just a scene or phrase with several words or images that are easy enough to figure out.

Jools Holland’s face on the body of a giant spider crab. I still can’t watch his new year show on TV.

I had a recurring nightmare where the ground was snakes, they were biting my socks, my dresser was full of snakes, went to bed, bed was full of snakes.
I'm not afraid of snakes though.

This was a dream I had when I was 5 or 6 years old. I'm kinda sure it is a dream. In it, me and my mom are running across a narrow corridor with high walls lined with plates with laughing skulls. ( The sounds they made were actually the sound frogs make, something I realized some time after I had the dream) I was wondering what was going on with my 5 year old self to dream of something like that

I had a dream back when I was 9 years old, I was running away (jump run, like ninjas in Naruto would) from the Medusa -like villain of a TV show airing that time. I remembered that when I was that age, I was kinda forced to practice my Maths in between the said TV show's commercial breaks. Made me think I had that dream because I was scared and running away from Math​

I don't have much recurring dreams or locations but one thing I noticed is that I tend to fly or at least ninja-leap in many of those dreams in my childhood.

ok, so I had this wicked awesome dream the other day (I know, not from a long time ago, sorry), and it made my day. I dreamed that I was this character that out I was some kind of magician that could control electricity, and that I had a grandfather who was an evil magician person with the same abilities, and wanted to come and turn me to the dark side, if you will, and I'd tried to hide from him, but he found me, and for some reason I was on this high school football field, and we wound up fighting and I won by punching him in the face repeatedly with electricity-fueled punches and it was epic. 10/10 would dream again.

I've also had this dream that there was this scary nightmare demon thing chasing me, and while running from it, I somehow stumbled on a portal to a place between a bunch of worlds. The place was protected by an enchanted iron fence that kept the demon away. It was like a place of healing where people could go to recuperate, and it was seen to by this anthropomorphic turtle (still turtle-sized though) that walked on two legs.

Those both got written down as potential story ideas to work off of.

I sometimes dream of school for some reason maybe its because I am still a student but theres one dream where I had went back to an old school I used to go and there was a school shooting im not sure why though

Oh I also keep a dream journal! Some dreams are pretty interesting!

I think my yearning to wander around outside but being unable to led to an influx of dreams about being in a huge mall of several floors and tunnels linking them. And finding a big food court to eat at. The mall is always very empty and looks sort of abandoned but the stores are all open. I think I dreamed of this at least once a month...

Okay. recently I had this dream where I'm at work. I look outside and there is huge group of people with plain white picket signs, protest I don't know. Everyone inside was trapped for the entire shift. When it came time to clock out, everyone decided to make a B-line for their cars. I made it about half-way when the people protesting became to swarm my car. I managed to get inside. They surrounded the car. They pounded on the windows and hood. I was panicking. That's when I woke up. My heart was pounding and I was breathing heavy.

I think what I can take back from this dream is that every action you take in life, there will always be an instant reaction. Depending on how big or small it may be, you need to try and wave your way though it the best way you can.

At least that's my take on what happened.

falling endlessly into the abyss

Just wanted to share this one because it made me laugh: I dreamed that the lower half of my body turned into the lower half of a chicken's body, and it had a will of its own. So it started walking/running around to random places, but I didn't care, so my human half just took a nap while my chicken half did whatever XD.

I also think its interesting how some of the dreams here seem to be reflecting all the crazy stuff that happened this and last year.

I vividly remember a dream I had in maybe tenth grade where I was working at a convenience store and a customer came in to tell me he had just removed both his kidneys in the bathroom and could I call the hospital for him. Not graphic at all, but I still think it's the most terrified I've ever been from a nightmare.

This thread reminded me to write down my recent dreams in my dream journal. xD

The first dream that comes to my mind is one of the weird kind rather than scary. One of my characters gave birth to a bunch of apples. But it was a guy character... xD

Or recently I had a dream about a cat. It was following me and started talking about giving up and how noithing matters. It's face became more ugly as it talked, with it's teeth sticking out of their mouth all crooked and sharp, then it jumped to my face and I woke up. Messed up my mood for that day. : /

I had a nightmare that was actually made up of a bunch of smaller nightmares. Basically, I would find myself in a scenario and I would have to escape or survive or whatever, and if I died or got whatever that scenario's bad ending was, it would either repeat or I'd get a new one.

The scenarios weren't so bad at first, they were surreal and a little upsetting, but not to bad. In each one I always had two companions with me, so I wasn't alone. But as I died/got bad endings and went to new scenarios they got progressively more scary and messed up. And my two friends appeared less and less until they were gone all together.

The worst one was when I woke up in what was clearly a zombie nightmare. I get zombie nightmares a lit, and I hate them. When I woke up in the zombie nightmare I basically just said "nope" and started violently bashing my head against a table trying to die so I could skip this scenario.

So... yeah. I might have issues.

Were... were the apples alive?

I had a dream a few years ago....

I was standing in a small room in a cottage like cabin home. The roof was slanted with the roof line and one wall was completely a huge window revealing a beautiful garden outside.
I was very pregnant and my husband, whose face i could not see, was standing with me. We were painting the room. It was going to be a nursery.

That was the whole dream. It was so happy. I hold on to that dream.

I was thinking of talking about a horrendous nightmare I had in 5th grade, but I won't. It's better if I share the wayyyy better one I had a few years ago.

I was suddenly the protagonist of the cartoon tv show Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go or SRMTHFG for short. Surely, I'm not the only fan of that show here! So I was the protagonist and I got to be him in a pretty amazing episode. I don't remember which one. But, I did it differently than how the MC did it in the series. It ended better than it did in the show. XD

The action scenes in that one dream were so awesome that my brain stopped producing more action scene packed dreams afterwards. I got to pilot a mecha, blew stuff up, did the staple sliding down with explosions in the background. It was amazing! I woke up with my blood filled with adrenaline.

I don't have that many dreams anymore. Very rarely do I have I had dreams these past two years. Maybe it's because my brain has just gotten worse at creating fantasy elements. : [

[Lahin]

That sounds adorable! I wanna have a dream like that someday too.

[Kann]

Nope. Just regular apples. xD
