      I would often go back to sleeping because I wanted to go back to the dream that I was having.
      It sometimes works.
      One time when it worked, I said to the friend in my dream, ‘ I’m back. ‘

    “We dream to solve problems” - This is one of the best explanations as to why we dream and I’ve experienced it quite a few times. I work in Technology sector. During peak working days I would come back home from work with some unsolved issues in my mind. I tend to think so much of it that I even dream about the problem in a weird and unrelated way. As a result of this I often wake up and find vague ideas hitting me randomly in the morning. I somehow remember them and returning back to the office, I apply those ideas to the unsolved problems and it actually works. Well this could totally be a coincidence but so many coincidences indicate towards a fair possibility of this theory being correct!

    When I was 8 I noticed that my dreams were very different from those of my parents or other kids around me, so I started keeping a dream journal. 20 years later and I'm really thankful I did, because it's given me a lot of creative ideas and I've even learned how to re-visit my old dreams, though it doesn't feel the same. From taking a submarine through the planet, staring in a Disney musical that doesn't exist, or breaking out of a maximum security prison on an alien planet I've had a lot of adventures.

      @anixpix 8 лет назад +26

      I had lucid dreams numerous times. What i noticed is that i usually get those dreams after i woke up and went back to sleep(not immediately). Still with eyes closed, it keeps the dream sleep/dream state dominant. During this phase, try to think random thoughts. At the same time, allow your 'wake' state to slowly emerge. Then try to empty thoughts and go back to sleep. This isn't a method, im just stating my personal observations. The interesting thing is although i am aware i was dreaming, but i certainly wasn't myself. My thoughts were 'oh i am dreaming, this must be a dream, i can do whatever i want..', but my knowledge of my past/real world didn't occur to me, as if either it has lost its priority or my awareness severed the link to those memories. But still i could differentiate them. And in my dream, it seemed as thought i could remember similar environment/situations i have experienced in them better than i would have tried to recall in my wake state. It was as though my awareness is tied to a different set of memory. I am currently learning chemistry, and my dream is to solve things like these. To me, dreams is a big clue to the mystery of life.

    A couple of times after someone close passed away, I was blessed to have dreams in both cases inwhich I was able to see and talk to them again - and tell them how much everyone missed them. In my last one, the person even told me they had to leave now - so we got to say goodbye... it was wonderful to see them again, and know that I was being able to see them in the dream. :)

      In my experience, people I dream about are either mismatched versions of people I already knew (with different characteristics and similar ones) or someone I have seen but never talked to. Though, the idea of deja vu (imagining you did something in a dream already with this person then when you actually know them the same thing occurs) is super interesting to me!

    2. Why we dream
    - Dream to fulfill our wishes
    - Dream to remember
    - Dream to forget : reverse learning
    - keep our brains working : continual activation theory, random screen saver
    - Dream to rehearse : Primitive instinct rehearsal theory
    - Dream to heal : lack of dreaming may be contributing factor for mental disease
    - Dream to solve problems

      The falling feeling when you are trying to get sleep or just into sleep or sleeping is because your body detects motion. What it means is that your body was completely still and suddenly some body part moved maybe because of your sleeping position or due to your surrounding like somebody made movement in your mattress and your still body detected it which made you wake up immediately because its an emergency alert system of our brain so that we shouldn't get killed while sleeping.

    I learned some stuff from dreaming, that I never knew in my life. In my theory our brains observed anything that we see, hear and feel. Our brain just don’t process every information when we are wake. Because In that moment our brain is under our control. When we sleep we can’t control (I meant think or do what ever we want). But when we are sleep our brain get rest. And that moment our brain starts making images, sound and feeling. From what our brain learned from our environment. Simply in my Theory, Our brain has also had will of its own. The will we keep in our control when we are awake. If you follow my theory, You will realize our brain is a living creature that’s inside us. And we are able to control it. We are not exactly our brain. Our brain is different from us. The mutual relationship between our body and brain keeps us as a one living being. I know it sounds crazy. But that’s my theory.

      +Köteles Kornél how is it not dreaming? That's absurd. You are just as conscious in a lucid dream as you are now, but it's just not in this phsysical reality. My lucid dreams start as normal dreams until I realize it is a dream. The full control is mine, and I can manifest anything I wish. My brain isn't just "making up bullshit" I am consciously choosing what I'd like to perceive and experience in this 'dream world'.

    • @ZettXXII
      @ZettXXII 9 лет назад +5

      +19blitzer I agree, to a certain point. The dreamer is conscious, not on a subconscious level and lucid dreaming can include bullshit, but it's not restricted to that. (@Köteles Kornél)
      Altough I'm also able to control everything in a LD, as long as I'm able to hold up my concentration, it's difficult to remember every detail from a dream to compare it to reality. (But it's impossible anyway, because a human brain cannot remember everything - it doesn't matter if it's happening in a dream or not.)
      So the point is - no one can tell if ppl. really are *as conscious* in a LD as they are outside of it.
      To the topic on hand: that is the real question.
      "Studies led by neuropsychologists Ursula Voss and Martin Dresler have shown that the *brain activity* during lucid dreaming bears the core features of REM sleep but is *distinct from both non-lucid dreaming and the awake state* (...)" [S: theguardian]
      I don't have the time to dig deeper, but I think we don't really know how different it really is - and how can you measure it, if the device for measurements it is the same as the research object: your brain.
      I guess lucid dreaming is a safe thing to do, because it's rare and even if you're likely to control a lot of your dreams, there are always enough you can't control.

    I like to think that our brain generates dreams to keep our consciousness entertained as it works, and occasionally slips little details from real life into those dreams. Like a tired parent who's three year old wants to play and as they're building Legos with their kid the parent unconsciously builds something resembling their work place, for example.

      There is a theory that we experience our dreams because the occipital lobe (visual part of our brains) needs to stay active to prevent other regions from taking over it (as the brain must utilise all available parts). So by generating its own visual activity during sleep, the occipital lobe prevents being taken over by other regions :)

    I started a dream journal a few months ago. I learned how to remember my dreams while waking up so I could write them down.
    Now it seems as if some part of me doesn't particularly like the fact I'm writing down my dreams, because now I dream that I wake up to write my dream down in my dream, so I can't remember it when I really wake up. (oops this sentence is confusing. Basically I think I just woke up although I'm still dreaming. Then I write my dream down while I'm still asleep. Because I tend to forget my dreams once I wrote them down, I forget them even if I just wrote them down while dreaming.)
    It's so confusing to wake up although you think you already were awake!

      Same here, I started writing dream logs quite a while ago, the number of logs is about 100 now. I'm usually aware that I'm dreaming, so whenever I'm about to "end" my dream I'll try to re-narrate the plot/story and remember some keywords so that I can write it out when I wake up. There are days when I "woke up" inside another dream and quickly write things down, until I realized that I was still dreaming. And then I would wake up a second time forgetting what I had to write. It's very annoying to wake up from a double dream.

Or even tell us what we are doing wrong in life. Like the dream of somebody/Figure is standing next to your bed, staring at you and not doing anything.

Yesterday I had a dream about 2 twins trying to kill me in an old Indian building in which we were the only humans. There were elves and dwarves doing some kind of work there. And rule breakers in that building where punished with half their faces being exposed to the surface of a pool with piranhas. It was the first bad dream I've had in a really long time. I woke up just before the twins started to tie me up. And I woke up crying. It would make a pretty good horror movie.

    Have you felt like running underwater when trying to run in a dream?
    Or being aware that you're in a dream, and are there just like, when is this gonna end?
    Or had a really bad dream, then wake up with a sign of relief that you're alive?
    Or had a dream that you forgot and think its part of your life until you realized it was a dream?
    I've had all these dreams before

    A common dream for me 20-30 years after finishing school was to be back at school, but worried half way through the semester that I had been forgetting to go to a certain class, usually something like an English class. My theory is that my memory has (of course) faded of a school schedule that long ago, but in the dream, my lack of recall caused me to worry. Similarly, dreaming that I was forgetting to go to a class which was needed to complete my degree and at the end of the final semester finding out I was one class short. Ack!

    Most of the time my dreams are very real
    Most of the time I saw things, actions and people in dreams
    Then the similar things happen in the next day
    And the people say u can't see watch and clock in a dream but I saw many times
    And people say we can't read in a dreams but I can read in my dreams

      Maybe you've got your dreams and reality the wrong way around, and in your dreams your just recalling stuff that previously happened

    Earlier this year I was really stressed about an exam (worried about failing etc) but the night before I dreamt I was taking it and looking at the exam paper,
    when I woke up, I spent a few hours before my exam thinking about how I would answer the questions from my dream.
    I got into the exam hall and opened the paper, which was the *exact same* paper I dreamt about,
    And I passed!
