If you have a nightmare that you want to talk about or ask for help with, here's the place to post it. I'll do my best to offer any advice and/or assistance that I can.
-
ok then can truma cause nightmares
cause I tried all of the things you guys told me and the nightmares only let up a little
and I am still having like 10+ nightmares a night
-
Trauma? Yes. Trauma can cause nightmares.
-
If a trauma is causing you to have intense or multiple nightmares, it could be a sign of PTSD - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. That particular thing requires treatment by a competent professional - not a Forum full of eager friends and helpers.
-
Moloch is quite right, terror.. I suggest you seek professional help ASAP.
And best of luck with it. I've had a few nightmares recently and I don't envy anyone that has them that much.

OK... Woke up from a nightmare this AM. It wasn't scary so much as it just plain freaked me out. I was at church and the pastor called me up front because he wanted to talk to me. He put his arm around me in a friendly manner, but them he took his hand lower and put it on my leg. My bare thigh, to be exact. And he had ahold of my shoulders in such a way that I was trapped there; I couldn't move his arm or hand. I asked him several time to move his hand because it was making me uncomfortable. He just acted like he didn't hear me. Finally I said "get your farking hand off my leg." And he looked at me like I was satan and just laughed at me. Finally, somehow, I was able to get away from him and I went back to my seat. I was completely disgusted.. that kind where you're not grossed out, but you feel dirty.. violated. He followed me to my seat and kept trying to get closer to me.. trying to touch me. I finally flipped out and got up and ran out of the church. Again.. he followed me. I couldn't see my car anywhere at first, and then he was behind me and I saw my car behind him. He kept coming toward me, trying to get closer.. I had my keys out and the only thing I knew to do was try to use them as a weapon. Any time he'd get even remotely close to me, I'd slash at him with my keys. At this point in the dream, I knew I was in trouble. I was sobbing because I knew no one was going to come help me; that I was on my own and I was screwed because I couldn't defend myself. I woke up just after realizing that.. and I was scared.
Any thoughts on this would be very helpful. Thanks.

A horny, maniacal priest????

PM sent.

Thank you, dear. You'd be surprised how much that really did help me. :-*

ok I had one
I was at my house, and the dog started barking. So I walked outside to see what was wrong and somehow my dog got out, but she wasnt barking anymore ....in fact her whole head was gone. I started to scream but couldn't and I ran to get back inside but the door was locked. After that I got this chair and tried to break a window but it turned into a camera. I then ran to my car, I got in it and closed the door, the radio started playing and I couldnt breath. Then the TV turned on and it showed my parents,mate,daughter, and dog dieing. Then it said it was my fault ( the radio) and it started laughing then I was falling, and falling, and then I hit some spikes but I wouldnt die even though there was tremendos pain then a girl came up and asked me if I hurt myself. I said yeah but not on purpose. She said "do it again I didnt feel it" and she started to laugh and then shot Nina(I have no idea where she came from or the gun) and then I woke up crying
Help?
-
Sounds to me like you are drowning in your fears and lay blame on yourself for everything. Time to stop being so self destructive.
-
Thanks.
Really I will try.
-
Uhm. Nightmares. Uuh. I haven't had a nightmare that i actually got scared off =\
It always ends up in me overcoming whatever is so "scary" in the dream and i actually have fun.
Can anyone explain that?
-
So i have constant nightmares, but sometimes there are the ones that stand way out and scare the s**t out of me, the kind that freak me out even when im surrounded by people in broad daylight. So I had one where for some reason I was in a different family. I had a mom who was pregnant and a father and i had been adopted. I had a two yr old brother and an eight yr old sister. My father had died of a sickness and we were living on our own. One night i heard crying in my brothers room and went to see what was wrong. when i got there the door was locked and he was screaming and i heard someone in there. i started yelling and trying to open then door when i swung open. It was dark and all i could see was a dark liquid spreading toward the door. I walk in and see and large lump on the floor in the moonlight. My baby brother has fang marks on his neck and is dead. I started to cry when i saw a shadow infront of me and ran. i grabbed my sister and mother and pulled them out the door. there was a group chasing us. we ran into a grave yard when i realized my sister wasn't behind us. i told my mom to keep running and went to find her. i found her tied to a grave with a knife in her chest and fang marks again. I screamed and screamed and then a man came out from behind the grave towards me. I heard my mom screaming and ran after her. Someone was attacking her so it hit them with something. i dont know what. any way then the police where there and chased off what ever was attacking us. then my mom went into labor and had twins and she died in labor. a few months later me and my new twin brothers were staying at my grandparents house. it was night and i was in my room. i went to get some water but my door was locked. the guy from the graveyard was there. I know I knew him i just cant remember who it was. then i woke up.
-
Anyone care to try and explain that?
-
Goodness, Mini... I don't know what to say. How long has it been since you had that? Or is it a reoccuring dream?
I don't know what to say about it right now, but I'll give it some thought and get back to you.
-
Well i first had it a few months ago, but then i had it again last night. And thank you for helping.
-
Wow, Mini. I'm going to think about this for a little bit, but I'm going to throw out some questions here and there that may or may not be relevant:
How vivid is the dream? Does it feel like a recent memory or like a distant memory?
How did you feel when these people died? Was it just fear, or did you feel deeply connected to these people and when they had passed you had lost something?
Fang marks. Vampire?
In most cases, vampires are known to "leech" the life forces of the living. What this could mean is that something in your life has been "sucking" certain aspects of yourself out and leaving you with very little to nothing. The siblings and mother that died could be symbolic of certain qualities you have that have been taken away by this outside force. The death of the mother, however, brought life to two new siblings, or two new aspects of your life. This "vampire" (outside force) seems to be targeting you and your "family" (your own qualities and aspects) again and you are fearful for what that may lead to.
That is just an idea. Think about the personalities of the family members in your dream and see how they apply to yourself.
Any questions? :-)
-
I was going to try to tackle this one, but dae beat me to it :lol: Good job. :wink:
-
Thank you, Dae. I really don't know what to say on this one. :|
-
I'm just helping where I can :-)

kay well i fell over in the dream and it was vivid enough that i felt splinters in my hand and feet when i hit the ground. the only thing that was nt was the man's face. it feels like its happened before like a memory, but its never happened in my life. i felt angry then scared cause i was mad they were killed and scared of what was coming for me. i felt like i lost something dear to me. and lets see i had a friend who was like a sister to me that died. but it was compelety unexpected and weird. she just flat out shut down and died. then i have my cousin nicky who i keep having nightmares about and hes like 3 and i keep worrying something might happen to him and idk why. then i know twins who im kinda close with. do you think that maybe the are reprsented in my dream?
-
And thank you. I have no idea whats going on and im glad to know someone wants to help.
-
It is possible that they are represented in your dream. You are the best one at interpreting your dreams, so go with what your gut tells you.
It may be a warning, or it could just be your own fears manifesting in your dreams. Fear can be a very powerful thing, so nightmares tend to be vivid. Many, however, push them to the back of their minds and forget about them because they are scary.
I hope you find the answer, and if I get any more ideas about it I will share with you. :-)

Hi Mini M
what is the bit that bothers you about this dream?
I mean from here it sounds pretty horrid but I'm not you.
So what specifically is it that causes you to be upset now you are awake?
ob
-
It feels familiar. Like it wasn't just something that popped like i was having a flash back. And how i felt about the family, like they were my family.
-
Does anyone think it's possible that he's having 'memories' of a past life?
-
Ha i'm a she.
if it helps everything was oldish looking. i didn't really notice it till now.
-
Er... sorry about that, mini. lol. But I still think it's a possibility.
-
I just woke up after having a dream. I thought I would post it here and see what everyone has to say about it. Also, it's normal for my dreams to be random, odd, and make little to no sense.
I don't remember much about how the dream started, but I do recall getting into this huge fight with my sister. We were standing outside of a big, white building that looked like an old church. The next thing I remember is being at school. Something was happening in the school parking lot, and that's when my dad showed up to tell me that my mom had been killed by a vampire. The vampire was exactly like the stereotypical Hollywood horror movie vampire. Everyone knew what had happened and would stare when I passed them in the hall. I left school to drive to a building. My dad and sister were already there. I was met by a guy with long black hair and dark clothing. He took me to, what I could only describe as, a freestanding freezer with a secret door in the top. Somehow, we entered through the secret door and ended up walking up several flights of stairs until we reached an iron door. He told me if I wanted to kill the vampire, I could find him in that room. Then the guy, who I found out was also a vampire, attacked me. After a short scuffle, I was able to kill him. I went back to school and started asking classmates (none of which I recognized) if they would assist me in killing the vampire. Everyone that I asked said that they wouldn't. Finally, I found a guy that agreed to help. I recognized him as being one of my favorite professional wrestlers (I have no idea how he had become a student at my school). We drove back to the building in and 18 wheeler truck. One thing of interest, both the truck and the trailer it was pulling had a weird wedge shaped top. When we got there, we parked the truck in a shed that had wedge shaped entrance. It was obviously built specifically for the truck. We started searching for weapons. I can't tell you what happened next, because it was at that point that I woke up.
Any thoughts?
-
Hi Chaos, this might not be the response that you thought you'd get but I have a question for you.
Imagine that you became lucid in the dream, what would you have done then?
-
I would have changed the entire dream. Instead of me driving an 18 wheeler to a building so I could fight an evil vampire, I would have been driving a black Viper to all the places that I'll probably never get to see in real life.
-
I never remember my dreams. Ever. recently Ive started having faint memories of them. All I remember is porcelin dolls, some of hem with their eyes burned out, thats it. That and a feeling of absolute terror. If you think you can help please private msg me.

Ok, here's a strange one. I had a dream that I was in a room that was all red, and I was in a coven of vampires... In this dream I myself was one. The only other vampire of any significance in this coven was Jacob (i have no idea who this is)...Any way, the dream was that the coven had figured out a way to become stronger somehow, like some kind of drug or something, and the only way it could be given from one person to another was by biting. So I was standing there listening to the others in the coven talk about this, and all of a sudden Jacob came up and said that he had to bite me to make me a stronger vamp. I didn't want him too, so I tried to run from him, but he caught me and bit me, and I felt a firey sensation and then it went black for a while. My dream phased back in again and I was in a theatre (like play theatre) with my coven, and we were about to watch a show. Suddenly, the rest of my coven disappeared and it was just me and this other group of people a ways away in the theatre. Well, suddenly I realized that the other group was also a ccoven and we must have been enemies or something because one of their group smelled me and then started chasing me. We tore out of the theatre, and through this narrow tunnel, almost like it was a sewer or something. As I was running through the tunnel, the man chasing me shifted into a tiger, and was gaining speed fast. Suddenly I had a strange sensation, and realized that I had shifted into a wolf. I made it out of the tunnel just as the tiger slashed it's claws at me. I woke up yelling, like I was howling just as I dodged the tiger's claws. So... any ideas?
P.S. I am not a vamp in real life, I am a donor.

Have you watched any Vamp/Were movies lately or been discussing one or more??

-
Ok...so this dream didn't happen to me but to my brother... I'll say it anyways.
There was some party in some freaky carnival. My brother walked past a "Thing" in a black coat saying to him ," Don't let the boy open the castle.". The boy was at a bowling minigame and won the castle. My brother tried to warn the boy but words wouldn't form. Suddenly he was in a classroom and the boy opened it. A huge beast with glowing red eyes and blood red skin pushed it's was out of the toy castle and killed little children around him. He hid under a desk and, of course, the beast found him. He woke up screaming and in terror of it for weeks. :-P
-
Well, besides being on here, no, I hadn't been watching any movies or anything of that sort. Probably just being on here is making me wierder by the day :laugh:
-
This is not as much of a nightmare as it is a weird dream that i would like some input on and help explaining
ok so there burned down building and roosting on top of it there was a really tall bird like a Phoenix i was across from the building looking at it its feathers where all ruffled and torn and it was screeching at me from across the street
-
every single night i have the same dream but diffrent effect and im always floating in the air...what i mean is in my dream im always falling 2 my death and when i wake up i fall back down on the bed....im not 2 sure what it means though :? :? :? :)zzz 0:)
-
I wouldn't call this dream a nightmare. It's not going to sound terrifying at all. Saying that though, the bad feeling I got throughout the dream was incredibly strong. I couldn't speak out of fear and woke up shaking and crying. I still feel marginally terrified whenever I think about it nearly a week later. (and that's quite a lot).
It began in a school I have never seen before. It was sort of like a kindergarten for older students if you can imagine that. A lot of art and basic music sing along classes. You know, more for entertainment than education. I was with a group of students (who I've never met before) and we were moving from lesson to lesson, talking, joking and generally having a good time. It's a beautiful sunny day, everything seems more colourful than normal. Every now and then a female creature appears. Her face is as if you've fused a woman's face and a deer's together. Kind of like this:
http://biomediale.ncca-kaliningrad.ru/img/dorin14.jpg (http://biomediale.ncca-kaliningrad.ru/img/dorin14.jpg)
Except the nose and eyes are larger. Her eyes are more like a deers as well (larger pupils).
She has short brown hair and is wearing a black dress with a high collar and it goes right too her feet. Very modest.
At first I see her out of the corner of my eye and don't think much of her. As the dream goes on she appears more often and at times I can see her following us and not just flashes of her form. I ask the other students about her. Apparently I'm new at the school and I'm wondering if maybe she is a local animal or resident. They don't know anything about her and don't seem to care that she's hanging around. But that feeling of foreboding is getting stronger and stronger. I find that the more I try and look at her the harder it is to speak. There is this power emanating from her and it's just burning away all my thoughts. That power terrifies me just as much as her form. Something's just not right about her. (it's hard to explain sorry)
In the last scene we are sitting in an art class and the teacher is talking about different printing techniques. The room is very open, windows all along one wall and I'm admiring the view. Joking about the woman and how she must be retarded for following us around all day and never speaking. She walks up to one of the windows and suddenly I am completely overwhelmed with fear. I just want to run. She lifts up one hand and it's just one huge finger and she beckons to come with her. I try to speak and in the end force myself to say no (out of pride eugh) and give her the jog on gesture with a rasberry thrown in for good measure.
Then she walks off and I feel myself forced to get up and follow. My heart is beating so fast and everyone else is ignoring me. I just don't seem to care that they exist anymore. I follow her out of the classroom into the too-colourful world. She looks back at me as she enters a blue cubby house. Inside it's massive, we talk and then I wake up.
When I sit up I get this terrible image of her face suddenly coming at me with a mouthful of sharks teeth (grinning and with white all around her eyes now) and I burst into tears. Now I keep imagining she's standing just behind me, or watching me in the darkest parts of rooms. I keep checking my windows because I'm certain she was just there, making that come here gesture with her hand sized finger.
It's completely irrational but I think if I could get some closure as to what the dream might mean I may stop imagining her in real life.
Nearly all my dreams since have been based around me in difference world cities trying to get away from her and holding meetings with groups of people I don't know trying to work out who she is. Obviously she's got my subconcious occupied.

Have you considered maybe that this being could be your spirit guide? Many guides do emanate a great amount of power, the ability to awaken spiritually is a powerful thing...
As spirit guides manifest in dreams or can only be seen by you in the waking world, they can take any form. They are in essence created from your own personal code, they are your symbol.
Firstly, to tackle that terrifying image of her coming at you with shark teeth. Many people experience 'after-thoughts' as they are waking up. Maybe she was happy to finally catch you but in your mind you were still experiencing the fear that a spiritual journey would consume you and in turn kill your current self. Death is quite a common symbol for change and revolution, not just the end. It doesn't have to be a bad thing. She was happy at devouring your current state, why can't you?
Are you at a point in your life where material security is the number one priority? If so, this could explain the fear you feel when you see this woman. You don't feel ready to commit to a spiritual path, you need to focus on other things, such as 'survival'. Fear is an emotional thing. The existence of irrational fears proves that they do not stem from reason. Generally a person fears something that has touched them personally and in a negative way. You experience this 'spiritual distraction' as negative because at this point in your life 'spiritual awakening' factors in as a waste of time I guess so your conscious state is trying to get away from her. Which would explain why you felt fear when she preoccupied your mind and even more strongly when you woke up.
Thinking is a conscious process on any level, the dream itself belongs to the subconscious. You accept a dream as reality because at that point in time there is no other world to compare it to. Unless you learn to dream lucidly. In a lucid dream you refuse to accept the image created by your subconscious and instead choose to consciously create the dream world around you. You can do this because of the conscious state of your mind. You still think in the same way (consciously) in dreams as when you are awake. But I digress.
That your dreams are generally centered around this spirit guide or finding her suggests that on some subconscious level you understand that following this spirit guide is important. However, you are still running away from her consciously. I say this because even in dreams you don't just run away from something for no reason, there is a thought process behind it.
It's true that she is occupying your subconscious. This is because subconsciously you have accepted her. Now you have to accept her guidance on a conscious level as well. That you are arranging meetings with people in the dream state, in order to find her is a massive step forward. Maybe when you next find yourself running from her try to turn and face her. Maybe after a while you'll be able to overcome that conscious part of you which refuses to acknowledge her and be able to ask her what her purpose is.
You can do this by learning how to lucid dream:

Not in order to recreate the dream but so you can have complete control over your own actions.
Good luck.
