The last dream I had that I remember I was walking back from school, crossed over the road and ended up talking to Davina McCall. We walked up to the co op up the road and bought some biscuits, some beer and some wine and then left.

I constantly dream of spiders and wasps which at least once a month rolls into sleep paralysis of spiders dropping from the ceiling onto my face and it scares the fucking life out of me each time. I've been told it's due to stress and lack of direction.

That sounds terrifying, i used to suffer from sleep paralysis quite alot but never with visual hallucinations, just loud ringing in my ears and an intense feeling of fear. Best thing to do is try your best to regulate your breathing and calm down so it can be over as soon as possible. It does make sense that it's stress as it is a big factor in the likelyhood of experiencing it, also if you have an irregular sleep pattern it can also make it more likely to happen.

Oh my days, I had the exact same thing every single night for years as a child. Fucking scary stuff. It has calmed down now but I still get the odd one.
I never knew why it started, all I remember was the first time I was sleeping round my nans house in the living room and I woke up in the night and the whole room was covered in sand. I could touch it, play with it, everything. I woke my mum and asked her why it was there and she said I was the only one who could see it.
That was the only good one, from there on it got more and more scary and I would see like hundreds of slugs on the wall and Tarantula spiders on my bed and hear weird sounds. It was inescapable, I tried not going to sleep but that never worked.
What a messed up child I was.

I've pretty much had this exact dream happening for the last little while
The light on my ceiling turns into a massive tarantula then it drops down to my face, and then another one comes up from the foot of my bed and crawls up towards my chest.

Thats it, some nights I only get 4hours sleep max, then some times I sleep for 12hours.

Had that one as well where I was walking over a street full of them in my socks

.
Another one I had that stays with me was where: I was waiting at a bus stop, I put my head out to check for bus and the bus took my head clean off, then I was above watching bystanders pickup my decapitated body up off the roadside.

Lucid dreams are cool but often as a conseuence ruin a few days of life after them
"The components of the brain that carry information to Long-term memory turn off while sleeping. For the same reason, dreams quickly fade out after you wake up. Although you may have quite a few dreams in a night, they aren’t being memorialized into Long-term memory. Normally only the fragments of a dream left in Short-term memory have a possibility to be converted after you wake up."

lucid dreaming is the key to immortality.
and the secret to immortality is not living forever but carrying your memories with you through incarnations.

It's so weird afterwards aswell though because it sounds like something i'd be really distressed about once i wake up but i just seem to be confused alot of the time as to whether it was real or not, alot of the time forgetting about it pretty quickly. I only remember one time when i fell asleep and it happened while a couple of mates were around, one said he noticed my breathing going abit crazy lol, as that was the only thing i had control of at the time i was trying to get someone to wake me up, the tnuc never did

aha. I find the ones i have can be terrifying enough though, i dread to think what hallucinations are like.
Tonight considered though, i have a pretty reasonable idea of what may haunt me when i sleep. It's related to feeling fantastic. hey hey heyyy.

I heard its best not to wake someone up when they are in that state because it can fuck with their mind or something and make it worse.
Oh no, don't remind me of that video! It doesn't sound like a fun dream.

I think everyone dreams, but we are programmed to forget them. Even if you think you don't dream, try keeping a pen and paper by the bed, you will probably surprise yourself.
Usually I don't remember my dreams at all but, every few months I will get a stretch where I remember them clearly, it usually lasts about 1.5 to 2 weeks. I would like to think this is the product of some slow acting mystical oscillation, but realistically I think it happens when I am fighting off an infection or my allergies flare up.
Usually, the more lucid the dream is the less I realize I am actually dreaming, so for the very lucid dreams I am in control but I completely believe whatever nonsensical narrative is taking place.
Last week I was dreaming alot (I think my body was trying to fight the cold I currently have), but the only one I still remember is the most horrible one. This image is still bothering me so if you don't want do deal with it stop reading here.
.. ok then
The dream took place in a medical environment, a hospital or something. There where four quadruplets about 6 or 7 years old, for some reason they where all Asian (still puzzled over this), three of them where perfectly heathy, but source of everyone's concern was that there was something wrong with the fourth one, which clearly was an aborted fetus (clear in hindsight, not at the time, because I believed the narrative). The image I am still dealing with is the image of a doctor/surgeon poking and clipping at the fetus with some tweezers trying to "fix" it, and in the process doing more harm than good.

Last night I had a dream that I was at a party and Geeneus was DJing...I was asking him if I should stay in London after FWD and go to DMZ aswell...He said "definately man"...and that was it.
Isn't it a bit creepy I'm no longer dreaming about women and instead, my brain has used this space to try and make decisions that I don't during the day?
Strange thing to dream about, and I wasn't even drunk.

I say this as I think I once had a vivid dream I pulled a girl in my local club just before going home and to this day don't know if it happened or not. She kind of avoided me from then on, and I don't know if it's because it ACTUALLY happened, or, maybe I'd tried it on, and my dream filled in how I wanted it to go...who knows...
