Dreams

For me, I often remember dreams, but I also know that I let far more slip away. Interestingly, a lot of stuff that happens during my dreams does seem to affect me for several minutes after waking up - such as this morning, when I had sore areas on my legs and chest from where my dream had been a bit 'violent'. Admittedly, the dream was reasonably nonsensical, but it makes me wonder how much of a dream my body believes before it realises it's not true.
What do you reckon?

I have never given any credance to any of mine, no matter how realistic.
Interestin [non]fact my wife rather scientifically explained to me only last month that when you imagine that you are falling in a dream, or that you trip and it produces an effect of muslce twitching to wake you up, this is your bodies natural means of firing your system up and jump starting your heart.

I also still on and off try and train myself to lucid dream. Unfortunately, I still haven't fully mastered it, when I figure out I'm in a dream and start to try and control it, I can feel myself waking up. Sometimes these are false awakenings, but either way I usually can't control them for long before I wake up or forget it's a dream.
I usually don't think twice about my dreams, apart from maybe them giving me a chuckle, but there is always the occasional dream that brings up forgotten memories, which can have it's effects in the real world.

Almost all the time, no matter how seemingly impossible the situation in the dream, for me, it feels less of a dream and more of a memory, and I can recall almost all of it as if it had just happened to me.
And also, I dont know if this has any relevance to my dreams, or if anyone else experiances this, but I find that if I'm thinking about something in particular before I fall asleep, if I do have a dream, it normally involves something I was thinking about.

That's the only dream I ever have, is that I'm on top of a building or cliff and I begin to fall then I find myself bolting upright in my bed awake. I dunno if it's because I have a fear of heights or what you said. Either way I don't even that dream often, maybe once a week. It's just annoying now. Another one that annoys me is when you wake up with the most unbearable cramp in your leg.

I get these dreams quite often as well, this may sound weird but when I expierance these falling dreams, im often, in control, I'd say, in that im still half conscious, but i cant wake up until I'm spiralling, and near the "stop" and then I wake up.

Also, not sure if this has happened to any of you guys, but rarely I'll dream about something that will happen in my life (like if I have an appointment or something), and then when I go to that event, it goes almost identically along the lines of the dream, so much so that I get a feeling of Deja Vu. Weird.

You only remember a dream if you wake up in the process of the dream, using Warbzy as an example the only dreams he remembers
are the ones he is falling because he wakes up in the middle of them, this is why we normally remember the "Scary" dreams as they scare us awake.

Dreams are just filing things from the day, they also are a vent for things in your mind.

The 'falling' sensation I've never actually experienced in dreams, but occasionally when I'm lying on my side waiting to go to sleep I do receive a sudden shock of adrenaline exactly like that, probably because I occasionally lie in an unstable position. It's quite unnerving.

because i had a dream where i was walking through the CBD not far from where i lived killing people with a scoped .22 bolt action rifle and i felt like i was actually there i could feel the recoil of the rifle and i could taste the burnt gun powder and i felt that i was rubbing up against a car when i took aim and shot a women holding a baby and i could that my leg was burning when i got shot by TRG and long story short it felt completely real until i woke up 5 in the morning.
And i heard it possible you can orgasm in your sleep if you have a really hot dream if you know what i mean XD
