does anyone else have dreams where you explore new areas of familiar buildings? like my house has 2 more floors. my old school has a new wing, etc.
>>220916765Not exploration, just the locations make no sense as an aside to the dream events themselves
>>220916765I've had recurring dreams where I've explored this really idyllic neighborhood close to where I live. Sometimes when I wake up I get confused and wonder if it's an actual place I've been to.
>>220916212can't wait for the simpsons backrooms episode in 15 years
>>220916765Yes. Also ones where I'm exploring "my house" and only when I wake do I realize it definitely was not my house.
>>220916765Yes, although its not just buildings. The town I live in gets whole new streets, new businesses, etc. The weirdest thing is that the layout is generally fairly consistent from dream to dream.
can't wait
>>220916765Yeah, it will usually be a building I frequented from my childhood, either the house I grew up in, my aunt’s house, or a friend’s house. Sometimes my middle or high school. Like you said it’s a whole extra floor or wing.>>220917477I’ve also had this one a couple of times. One was very vivid, the house itself wasn’t anything special, just your average middle class kinda place. But my wife and I went into the basement and found a passage to a sub-basement and eventually a hallway with lots of little rooms full of boxes and antiques and stuff. The hallway twisted and turned and went down a stairway or two and eventually came to a cavern which itself was a complex of caves, finished rooms, some stairways and hallways. Like if I found this in my home IRL I’d be creeped out and try to move away asap but in the dream it was fun and me and my wife were hyped up.
>>220916765yeah and it's annoying. same with remembering someone you haven't even thought of in years.
>>220916765I get this a lot with dreams in my grandfather's old house but weirdly never my own house
>>220916765>thing you know but differentthat's pretty standard dream stuff. Most of my dreams are like that>the class I had in school but with different people>the school I went to but the building is different>the video game I play but different>the city I live in but now has a lake>the house I live in but now there's a secret room behind the wall of the living room where I find all my missing toys
>>220916765No. I have a dream city that I always seem to wind up in. A lot of locations incorporate familiar places I have lived or spent time in, but they're distinct to the point where I often have lucid dreams because I recognize places that I know only exist in my weird dream-city.

>>220918553>annoyingthisreally long-winded, exhausting dreams of people I know in semi-realistic and bizarre situations are getting very tiresomeI used to smoke weed morning til night. I don't smoke anymore. the only thing I miss was complete lack of dreams at night
>>220916765Last night I had an awful nightmare where I was a criminal, and had been caught, so I was sitting handcuffed in the police station, and having to snitch to save myself. I told the police all I knew about my gang, and I thought I was in the clear. The gang weren’t people I knew, but in the dream, I thought they were. Then they brought a new binder full of photos of men I have never seen in my life, and asked me what I knew about them. I tried to explain that I didn’t know them. The cops made it clear these guys were really bad, human trafficking and organ harvesting. Me and my gang had just been selling weed, and I was in over my head. I tried so hard to explain this, but the big muscular male cop with a buzzcut suddenly started screaming “We already know you’re a criminal, you just admitted it! So don’t pretend you don’t know all about all the shady shit that’s going down in this town! Lie to me again, and I’ll smash your fucking teeth down the back of your throat and you can choke to fucking death on them! No one’s going to care, hell, I’ll probably get a fucking medal!” He was up in my face and I wad getting covered with spit. Then the slender, attractive blonde female cop, who’d been being the good cop up until now said“It’s no use, we’ll have to torture him.”The male cop opened up a normal looking cupboard and it was absolutely stocked with medieval torture equipment.I looked down and I wasn’t just handcuffed, but I was suddenly chained to the chair. When I looked up the male cop was jabbing a red hot poker in my face. I could feel the heat. I don’t know how it got hot, there was no fire. He said“Open your mouth and stick out your tongue, I’m going to burn a hole right through it. Then, you won’t be able to answer any questions, and I’ll get to torture you to death. I’m going to make it last months.”
>>220918957I stated crying and begging that I really didn’t know these people and that I’d do anything. The two cops looked disgusted, and turned and walked away from me whispering with their backs turned to me. Then they faced me, and the female cop said “He won’t be any more use. Have your fun.” Thankfully I woke up just before he started burning me.
>>220918922I smoke weed and drink and I dream every night.
>>220916765I have tons of dreams where like I'm attending a party at a giant mansion I've never been to and I just walk around and check out all the rooms occasionally someone random from high school will be at one of the parties and I'll briefly chat with them
>>220916765I had a dream several months ago where I had some sort of nonsensical plan to scam an inheritance or something, and I had a dream last week where I was getting audited for it and had to go to prison for life.I said kino as soon as I woke up.
>>220918922If you want to have some real fun, wear a nicotine patch to bed. Look on the back of the box an there is a disclaimer, one of the side effects is "Vivid Dreams." And it advises you to take it off at night. I was moving across the country, starting a new job, quitting smoking, an my dad had come up to help me get settled in, so I was genuinely just under a shitload of stress. I was so exhausted I'd just kind of pass out in bed, not take the patch off, and end up having these stress nightmares that I was lucid in, and thought they were real until shit eventually got so fucked up and weird that I would recognize I was in a nightmare, and then wake up out of bed gasping covered in cold sweat, start my day, and it would get fucking weird and dark again until I realized I had a false awakening IN my dream. Some of these would honestly go like 4 or 5 false awakenings deep, some real inception shit, and even when I finally actually woke up for real I didn't know if I could trust that I wasn't STILL dreaming.After three nights in a row of that happening I finally looked at the box of patches, saw that warning, and immediately had this massive weight come off my shoulders because I was starting to worry I was actually going crazy.
>>220918985do you smoke right before bed? or an hour or two before
>>220919049holy shit, that sounds like hell anon. glad you escaped the nightmare. imagine going through that every single day and never knowing why, ever
>>220919139maybe an hour or so before
>>220916765Not that I can recall. My dreams are always pretty realistic and match real life. Well other than the fact that women enjoy my company in them, lol!
>>220916765Your house is your psyche/ personality and you are exploring new parts of it>>220918957sheesh
>>220916765Yes Holy fuck why is this? It’s basically the only type of dream i have anymore.
>>220918957This happens to black people everyday in america.
>>220916212A few backgrounds in the Tracy Ullman shorts could definitely give you the feeling they live in the Backrooms.
>>220916765All the time. Like I discover a hidden door that leads into an old unused part of my house. It's always really comfy though even though it's all dark and dusty.
>>220919931Why’s Maggie’s pacifier so big?
>>220916212im fucking shook
>>220919872I’m a white Australian, but in the dream we were all british. I don’t think I was me, exactly, because I was talking like a chav. I still had white hands and arms when I looked down though.
>>220916212tree house of horror 1000 will have a backrooms reference
>>220916765I've had dreams where I find doors to completely new rooms or areas of my house but they always fill me with dread.
>>220916765Yep. Recently I've been having dreams of my childhood basement having secret passages that lead to some ancient stone tunnels. Sometimes they have dead ends, sometimes they keep going and get darker until I start hearing noises and turn back. A common theme in these dreams is that these passageways connect to other houses in the neighborhood and/or magically connect to other parts of the world.
I like how I can sometimes realize I'm dreaming and try to summon a pretty girl for sexy time and it doesn't happen, but I can float around or teleport into a casino
>>220920023Homer cock training
>>220916765Yes, but I would better describe it as exploring the impression of a place or type of place I'm familiar with. I had a dream the other day where I was at school, not specifically any school I've ever been to, but a place that looks like what I remember a school looking like, both from personal experience and in photographs, movies, games, etc.
