take a look at http://www.nightmareproject.com
i don't know why, but the nightmares there really scare me. i almost want to cry suddenly. in general, i think nightmares are very strange and scary, because all kind of disturbing, weird stuff happens. the nonsensical obscure things are what scare me.
mm you can also post nightmares you have had here.
I don't know how that could scare you?! I pissed my self laughing at some of the comments. It's like some smartass just went along giving fake explanations of the dreams. I read "I sounds like you are confused with your sexuality" in the comments a few times of dreams that where completly unrelated to that sort of thing.
Interesting site though...
:JULI@N, I know what you mean. I have these weird nightmares where I wake up crying. It only happeneds when I'm sick though, with a bad cold or the flu. Usually it's about a big machine in which I climb through, really stuffed up stuff and it makes no sense. It happens to my brother as well, he had one the other day when he was sick. He's 19 and he woke up crying, and said that his dream was about scissors cutting paper. ?! Another one he had a dream of all these fairies getting squashed. It makes no sense. We always wake up crying and are completly disorientated, sweat covering our face and all. But I havn't had one for a few years now. But some people just don't get it, like Buster here, and will never understand.
Well, no I guess I dont understand how you can wake up from a dream crying? I'm not dissing you or anything but it's not like its real? Dont you wake up and think 'shit, its okay it was just a dream'?
I have nightmares. I had a dream where some guy in a hockey mask chopped me up into small chunks and stored my remains in a black plastic garbage back and dumped me in an alley way right outside a police station. I like nightmares though, I'm sure it sounds kinda weird but I like wakeing up after a nightmare and all like whoa man that would make an awesome movie!
I rarely have nightmares. When I think about it, I cannot remember the last time I had one. Maybe I dont wake up thus dont remember it.
Dreams and nightmares are one of the great mysteries. When you enter the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleeping stage, you begin to dream. The dreams are created in your sub-consciousness, they often contain elements of your recent memories. While dreaming, your memory is going through everything youve remembered that day. Scientists believe dreams "charge up the memory" so you feel fresh and clear in your head when you wake up (if you get enough sleep that is ).
Nightmares are closely linked to dreams. They are scary dreams. Why they appear noone knows. Both dreams and nightmares have their own "reality". Everything that happens in a dream is real to the reality of the dream. Normally you dont remember a dream, but if you wake up in a dream or shortly after, your short term memory will contain a part of the dream thus you remember it. When you wake up remembering a dream, the dream no longer makes sence. What was clear during sleep is now nonsence as the dreams reality often differ somewhat from the real world reality.
If you feel you often have nightmares and that they affect your sleep eg. you get tired, then visit your doctor. He/she may not know what to do ... but should be able to appoint you to someone who knows.
I once had a nightmare where... NO! Please stop it's too painful...
Show me the power child,
I'd like to say,
That I'm down on my knees today,
Gives me the butterflies,
Gives me away,
'Til I'm up on my feet again,
I'm feeling outshined.
When people wake up crying or screaming from a nightmare, usually the crying or screaming starts when they are still asleep, and they then wake up -- not when they reflect on what the dream was like. Whilst you're dreaming, it can on occasion be almost impossible to tell what's real and what's not. For example, many is the time I've woken up in the morning, got changed, gone to college, handed in my homework, got home exhausted, only to realise that I'm still in my bed waiting to get changed and go to college.
Wacky dreams can be convincing too, since you only notice just how wacky they are once you're awake. I had a horrific but so obviously unreal dream the other night, but that nearly had me in tears. First true nightmare I've had in years.
i get scared because it reminds me of the time when i was a child. when i was little i was very afraid of the dark and had nightmares almost always.
but its weird, its only while im reading them. i also think now geez, why should i get scared of reading them
and yesterday i was reading them until late. suddenly the lights went out. it was freaky

Once i had a nightmaere, circy was the evil psychopathic killer hunting me all night...

i have plenty of dreams, hardly any nightmares though. i dream more when i've had less sleep, if that makes sense, and i usually end up wishing my dreams were reality. mmmmm sex.
I don't know why, but in my nightmares I always 'wake up' because I had a nightmare. You see? A nightmare inside a nightmare. It's really horrible, since the first nightmare doesn't really scare me because I know I'm asleep, but when I 'wake up' I really do get scared, even though the second nightmare is just a variation on the first.
You still with me? Never mind. Good thing I rarely have them, though
Whenever I have bad dreams, they make me uncomfortable but I'm completely released from them after I wake up. I almost never have Nightmares and I've only had one nightmare twice with 4 years apart. I have plenty of Deja-Vu-ish stuff. The Nightmares I get though are retarded, weird in ways ppl have done in few movies.
