Ahh, Kos...
>>695067167So what was he doing all this time in the nightmare, just exploring empty corridors and spiraling stairs and animating skeletons for fun?
>>695066842you're playing "waste most of your life for zero benefits" sleeptranny
>>695067405He wanted to make a call, but the cell reception in Yahar'gul is terrible.

>>695066842>what are we playing?Weird games of the dream world, games that doesn't make sense then you wake up.
>>695066842>the dream has become his realityWatch out what you wish for.
>>695066842What does he eat?
>it's a "get in bed at 3pm with the lights on and stare at the ceiling until you fall asleep because you don't feel like doing anything else" day
>dreamt I had a trap gf>decide to go out>he fucking shows up as a normal guy>everyone calls me a faggot>wake upWhat did my brain mean by this

>spring/summer>hate sleep can't stand it, stay up all night>fall/winter>love sleep can't get enough of it, go to bed sometimes 2 hours earlythe way she goes.
>>695066842how does he shit and piss and cum?
>>695066842Sleeping on your side can cause wrinkles.
>>695072396his room smells for a reason bro
>>695072556how the fuck am i supposed to control my body when i'm sleeping i can fall asleep face up but shit when i wake up it's anyone's guess.
>>695073347Work out pass out
>>695067798Try reading a book in a dream and tell me how it goes.
>>695068625Oh noooo I sure hope to not become a disembodied face floating in the bushes with students screaming in the distance from the school 20 feet away oh noooo
>>695074018Impossible to remember nonsensical phrases, notice the first words of the paragraph you just read changed, try very hard to re-read it and then just wake up without remembering a single word
>tfw just finished a game (RE4R)>got nothing else to play>browsing steam and can't find anything I want to play that I haven't played already>90% of games are just shovelware slop tooguess I will just sleep. At least in my dreams I can feel happy. Speaking of dreams, I'm wondering if anyone else ever has dreams where they are wandering through a parking lot looking for your car but you can't ever find your car and you keep looking everywhere, you find a car that looks like yours pull on the handle but it won't open and then eventually wake up? Had another one like that last night.
i have not been sleeping well and it's the worst
>>695066842I usually fall asleep by imagining myself playing through Crash Bandicoot. I remember the layout of the game enough to actually play it in my mind.
Alright gamers, do you sleep on your belly or your back? And what is the last game you played?
I hope my fellow sleepers shower before bed every night to keep your sheets nice and cleanI only wash my sheets every month because they stay pretty damn clean doing this every night. Also, anyone else lose the ability to side sleep as they got older? I used to sleep on my side every night when I was a teenager / in my 20s but now in my 30s I can only sleep on my back, it's just not comfortable anymore.
>>695074753I stopped doing it because my arm gets numb as hell.
>>695074731Back. I had a cousin who was a bellyfag, I've never understood how anyone can sleep like that. It has to absolutely kill your neck.
I know you made the thread to check if I did astral projection and noticed my friend dying and calling me out.
>>695067498>sleep>no benefits
>>695074731Belly. Last game i played was EDF6.
I have a lot of quasi-lucid dreams where I know I'm dreaming but don't take advantage of it. last dream I was like, this better not be aliens or else I'm going to wake up and have to get a drink of milk, and she as fuck my brain betrayed me and it was aliens in my dream. I just woke up because I was fed up
>>695075065how do you sleep like that, do you turn your head to the side, and if so how the fuck does that not completely destroy your neck?
Whats better, chamomille or Lavender tea for winding down before sleep
>>695075304Yeah i turn my head left or right depending on how my body is positioned. My neck doesnt hurt because i have a good pillow.
>it's another "not tired enough to sleep until just a few hours before my alarm goes off" episode
>>695075676God i hate that so much.
>>695066842>what are we playing?the vivid, on-going fantasies I concoct in my head as I wait to fall asleep. Wageslaving leaves me with no time to play vidya during the week unfortunately.
>>695075676as dogshit as my life is right now I donut miss those days
>>695066842In my dreams I have horrifying nightmares about my town being destroyed by tornados
>>695075676happened all the time while i was working full-timenow my problem is getting out of bed
SLEEPER? GTFO THREAD FINALLY?
>>695074731I sleep on my stomach but I try to angle onto my side because belly flopping is not actually comfortable and I also crane my neck too muchJust installed Let It Die>>695074753It's better to shower after you get out of bed unless you're downright filthy because your bed is a hot tub of sweat already
>>695075940>Tornado approaching>Just keeps filmingDid he died?
>>695075940I've dreamt about tornedoes too a little while back. I got swept up in one and was flying alongside the debris. Really sent some butterflies into my stomach if you know what i mean.
>>695074867I dont understand how people can sleep on their backs. I've tried it before and it just doesnt work for me.
>>695074867I used to be a bellyfag before I got fat (sleeping on my belly now makes me wake up suddenly in the middle of the night feeling like I can't breathe, which is mildly concerning). I can confirm that it totally fucked my neck. You have to twist your head at a 90 degree angle with your body all night
>>695077069Oddly I can't breathe when laying on my back
if any of you guys have weird wrists or hands try sleeping with cheap wrist braces. I think I must flail around in my sleep or clench them because they used to hurt during the day but this makes them much better
>>695074731I have to be extremely tired to sleep on my back, otherwise if im alone stomach or have someone to warm my bed either side will do. But im also a pain to sleep with and to myself as I move all over the bed in my sleep
Dreams give me a sense of excitement and cerebrality that real life no longer does.
are (You) sleepmaxxing, anon?
>>695066842I wish I still had dreams. Ir that I remembered the dreams, whichever one it is, the end result is the same.
I listen to ASMR more than I do music now
>>695078916I feel like ASMR is as bad as porn sometimes but it feels good to listen to.
>>695074731I sleep on my sideDominions 6
>>695074753I only enter bed totally clean
>>695075676>not tired enough to sleep>get up>too tired to be awake>lay back down>not tired enough to sleep
>>695066842>go to bed>set phone's alarm for like 4-5 hours>when alarm rings take phone in hand and press volume button for snooze>snooze interval is 10 minutes>lie with phone in hand so you can instinctively press snooze again when alarm goes off again>every 10 minutes wake up for a brief moment and press snooze>immediately fall asleep again>even though you only sleep for 10 mins each time your dream feels like it's going on for hoursAny fellow dreammaxxers here?
>>695074731I am literally incapable of sleeping on my back. There's no discomfort or anything, just some final barrier right before sleep that I can't cross unless I'm on my belly.
>>695074753>I only wash my sheets every month because theyyou filthy fucking animal, you lose skin cells every fucking second that passes and still can sweat during the night while sleeping as your temperature changes, your sheets aren't clear and your room smells like shit
>>695079104>ASMR is as bad as porn
>>695083626Psychologically, he means
I just want to sleep.To close my eyes and never open them again.
>>695079940I'VE BECOME SO NUMB
>>695083910No it's not even close. They're just girlfriend simulators. I know it may feel like it sometimes, but listening to a woman's voice is not as psychologically damaging as watching hardcore pornography.
>>695074731sleeping on your belly will kill you
>>695066842I started a new game in Jade Empire after not playing it for like 20 years. I didn't even get past the intro cutscene before I got too sleepy and went to bed.
It's almost 10pm where I am. Just woke up and I'm gunna boot up San Andreas then close it and go back to sleep after 5 hours of doing nothing.
Exercise. Then you will have energy.
>getting calls for job interviews this week after being a neet for two monthsLooks like I won't be getting good sleep for a long time again bros..
>>695084650I don't even have the energy to put a shirt on and you expect me to exercise?
>>695084137>Listening to a woman isn't psychologically damagingLolLmao
>>695084137Wtf I just listen to the one's where they're tearing my flesh with a wooden spoon or tap objects not roleplay as my girlfriend or whatever
Oh god not the guy murdering my family while i watch and my gun is too heavy for my hand and in movingi n slow motion
>>695074824>I can only sleep on my back, it's just not comfortable anymoreFFFFUUUUCCCKKK can relatecan't sleep on my side, I wake up with my hand fucking DEAD numbmaybe I'll get a hugging pillow or something, sleeping on my back is weird after sleeping on the side so long
>>695066936fpbp
>>695078916share some good ones
how do I sleep? getting (you)'s is so addicting
>>695084137it's actually quite closer than you'd believe. pornography is more destructive, but compulsively listening to girlfriend surrogate media is not to be discounted in its ability to a) divorce someone thoroughly from the world to a harmful degree and b) utterly stunt their ability to both form and seek out new relationships, especially if exposure is early and consumption is massive. that kind of asmr is one of the worst things a person can do to themself second to porn and it is predatory in the same exact way that pornography is, which is namely, that it is predicated upon the exploitation of fantasies of an impossibly hospitable world.
>>695067498Don't trip napbros this post was sponsored by big caffeine
>>695084976It's all gf roleplay because that's a level of closeness and intimacy that you only get from a gf or wife.
>>695067498cue the picture of some jap who boasted saving a lot of time by sleeping only 6 hours a day and then died at 50 like a fucking retard due to cardiac arrest or some other grandpa tier ailment
>>695076083nah he was wearing da vinci wings he's fine
>>695066842Any lucid dreamers here?
it is almost morning and i couldnt hate myself to sleep tonight. I cant sleep if im not wasted drunk or high. Life is hell. Sobriety is hell. Addiction is hell. God I wish I could just fall asleep and never wake up again
tfw lucid dream but my manifestations suck>>695086573
>>695086602sounds like you need white noise or ASMR to take your mind off the demonsI like distant cars driving on the highway
>>695086602yesternight I got legos at some store, I left one rare bag on some table for a minute, it was gone moments later, I was angry, tries to go get another from the isle but I always ended up at the cashier, was like wtf, customer was rude, said something back. Shit ended soon after.
>>695074731i sleep in the fetal position
>>695085061I don't know what your personal favorite triggers/tingle sounds are but I'll throw out some of minehttps://youtu.be/viD601y05Q0?si=oj3AFno4w1lj5gVDhttps://youtu.be/_tVU9ENbjOE?si=mQlxvMVeVOAg909ihttps://youtu.be/R4_YT_MqOUA?si=RjGGW2e-qSBbVZjchttps://youtu.be/mupqiNNDEj8?si=howfIVz-fZh2wzbT
>>695086573No but I did have a wonderful dream last night that there were fires all around my house and I had to evacuate. Nice and pleasant, but then I woke up and the world was not on fire and I felt deeply sad.
For me it's listening to comfy ambient soundtracks in bedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcKTIsUtHZUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7H0XOsi_WkUhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnMnA5Z1WkQ

For me it's:https://japaneseasmr.com/121253/
>>695066842I also like to sleep whenever I turn on my favorite YouTuber playing a game.
>>695087324nothing can beat this mother fuckersleep tight SleepBroshttps://youtu.be/s-caCSvoo58

>>695086962I always have dreams of finding old Bionicles at the storeThen I went to a used Lego shop and found a Kurahk complete in canister with instructions for $4. Felt like a dream but it was real.
>>695087324https://youtube.com/watch?v=gy1VVDhJnJsI have a long playlist but never use it because if I do I will sleep too long
nice cure for "insomnia" is having no power. in bed at 8pm.
>>695072556And sleeping on your back can cause sleep paralysis. Tummy sleepers win once again.
>>695087810i miss the rumbling of the water heater in my basement room. now that was comfy.
>>695087324This EP has been my go-to for most of the yearhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncDw9F-QPyM
this is a wonderful threadI cant wait to have a nice sleep >>695075348Chamomile used to give me strange dreams but I think I've built up a tolerance. Need to try Lavender
>>695074731I constantly toss and turn. It's quite annoying that I can't stay in a comfortable position for long periods of time.
>>695087349The dream wasn't about burning to death, and neither was my disappointment. I am not suicidal and I do not want to die.
>>695089239>I am not suicidal and I do not want to die.but you don't want to exist either? That is quite the predicament.
>>695069045Your brain is straight up telling you to leave the closet, I wish my subconscious was this clear
>>695074731On my back like this.
>>695089951kino
>>695089951I look like this and sleep like this
>>695087349No it isn't, the pain receptors burn quickly
>>695084993>finally get a good hit in after like 40 punchesahh..... now i can wake up feeling refreshed
>>695086573How???...?...??
>>695086602have u tried running like really far or really fast? i liked to get fucked up to, and if u workout really hard u get fucked up.

>>695086573I frequently become lucid while I dream, but I usually just let things play out like normal. Trying too hard just wakes me up and anything I do intentionally try to conjure up isn't nearly as interesting as whatever scenario just caused me to realize I'm dreaming. It's almost annoying to become lucid
>>695078570Abuse the snooze button... or ideally set multiple alarms in slightly different intervals ranging between 8 to 20 minutes.Also keep a dream journal.>>695086573Yep.
>>695090393that's called indegestion fatass
>>695076083no he ran out into his batmobile and flew in the other direction
>>695066842>>695067498shut your BITCH ASSES up it's BEDTIME
>>695090713I'm 150lbs
>>695090608I feel ya. You have to ride that fine line of lucidity and tame those tingly feelings.I've only had one experience where I was concerned that I couldn't wake myself up after being lucid for what felt like 3 minutes (those 3 minutes feeling like an eternity).
>>695069045>What did my brain mean by thisCosmo is trying to give you some real nigga life advice so you don't spiral out of control>>695068901I do this too
>>695084993For me it was a velociraptor and a bear that were running around while I moonjumped onto the roof and porch and ran around trying to fine a weapon, eventually transforming into a gorilla and punching them to death only to find out that I had ignited the house in my gorilla rage inferno, upon which I wake upI firmly believe it was because I had played Jurassic Park on Genesis the day prior
>>695090352you just do it.
>>695090770obese niggas itt
>>695090034there are studies which plot suicide methods vs agony level, drowning is supposedly the most painful followed by self immolation.
>It's a dream about telling my feelings to the girl I have a crush on and she accepts them, and we hang out for a while as a coupleAnd every time I want to kill myself when I wake up, it's been 3 times already.
>>695090879>I've only had one experience where I was concerned that I couldn't wake myself upI've been there a few times. For me it was a nested dream sequence where I "wake up" and go about my routine and then something weird happens and I realize it's a dream and I "wake up" again and again with each loop getting more deranged. Actually terrifying the thought that I might not wake up for real.
>>695074018I've had dreams where I read some passages or poems that must have come from my subconscious because I dont read IRL.Unfortunately I forget them soon after waking. Not like I expect them to be good lol but it would be interesting to reflect on the bullshit my unfiltered mind comes up with.
>>695086573No but I once had sleep paralysis. It was terrible.
>>695086573all the timethey are coherent only while im asleepwhen im awake i cant relate them clearly enough so i just so i dont remember
>>695091087I had one where a mysterious girl and I kissed and danced in a dark ballroom, and she said we would meet again.It's been 10 years. It was one of only 2 successful lucid dreams I've stumbled on, the other being at a weird library supermarket where I ran some woman over with a cart
>it's a driving a boat in pitch black darkness then ending up on a pier completely naked with a detachable penis episode
>>695091431>the other being at a weird library supermarket where I ran some woman over with a cart
Did you know if you drink whole milk before bed you can play a free trial of purgatory
>>695091658Free trial? Freakin' sweet!
>>695091658I already bought the premium pass
>at summer cabin>suddenly eerie silence>like no sounds at all>bear runs at me from the woodsI just knew it every time the silence set in, had seen it so many times.Stopped having those dreams years ago.Last ones were like I woke up fast and laughed at the bear for not getting me.
>>695091658actually if you have lactose intolerance, that would be upgraded to a free trail of hell.
>>695075940Are you me? I used to have dreams like that myself as a kid. Sometimes I would even try to move my games and stuff into the basement of my childhood house so they don't get destroyed
>Keep dreaming about ghosts every so often>It's always the same ghost, just intuitively know despite never seeing anything besides a silhouette>It takes away my ability to yell and sometimes breath>Happens again earlier today>Wake up, roll over>Swear to punch the ghost the next time I see it with burning bundles of sage in my handFuck you ghost
>>695091202I've oft tried to become Lucid, but when your brain actually does shit like telling time on clocks or giving you reflections in mirrors, it is hard to become truly lucid.
>>695091638It was very satisfying. She was holding a water bottle and screamed "MY WAAATER" as it slowly rolled under a shelf
>>695066842I've never had sex in a dream but at least once per 2-3 months I have a dream where I take a piss and wake up covered in cum. It started when I was like 16 and had a dream about being in a bounce house and peeing onto a pile of writhing worms in the corner but the circumstances are different each time.Psychoanalyze me
bros how do i get a full 8 hours of sleep? I can only sleep 6-7 hours max before waking up and I take melatonin every night.
>>695089951This is me, at least it was until my other cat died of heart failure last month. RIP Socks. Her sister Shoes still sleeps inside my arm every night as she has every night for the last 17 years.
>>695086573i miss my lucid flying dreams
>>695088817>tfw no frog gf
>>695092009>Psychoanalyze meyou relate so many things to sex that you don't even bother with the actual act in your fantasies because it's all the same. idk that's my best shot
>>695086573It only happened to me once and I don't know how to do it again.
>>695066842The lucid dreams I've had of fucking my sister were the greatest experiences of my life. Actual pure bliss. I hope I can have another one soon.
>>695091658I drink like half a liter of milk minimum before bed daily
>>695092009how have you never had sex in a dream? Almost all my dreams revolve around sex to some degree, or at least most situations that aren't sexual will turn sexual in some way in them.
anyone still get wet dreams?
>>695092075I had a cat named Socks 18 years ago. He was my best friend and his mom brought him to our doorstep one morning when I was in 3rd grade.
>>695066842>get 20-30min sun most daysfixed your sleep problem retard
>>695092284I don't think I've ever had one. I've had sexual dreams but I never busted in my sleep
my daily life is just me waiting to get sleepy enough to go to bedi barely even play video games anymore, i just refresh the internet looking for something to distract me until i've been up for 16-17 hours, then i sleeep for 10 hours and repeat
>>695092309It's a good name for a cat, RIP to your socks too anon.

>>695092284I've pissed and shit myself in my sleep as a grown adult, but no I haven't had a wet dream since I was a teenager. There isn't a feeling more grim than waking up as a haggard old man and realizing you have to wash your sheets right away.
>>695092284I never masturbate so this happens once in a while. It's just retarded. I always become conscious enough to stop and wake up before I cum.

>>695091775I'm not sure what you mean. I've never had trouble reading in dreams, can't remember mirrors specifically, and the only times I've been lucid were unintentional.

>>695092863I'm not that fat I'm like 180lb. The shit was diarrhea and I was legitimately sick that time. The pissing situation I don't really have an excuse for, I was pissing in my dream and woke up to really pissing in the sheets.
>>695089951Nice cock.
>>695092986>The shit was diarrhea and I was legitimately sick that timeFair enough. The post made it seem like a regular event>The pissing situation I don't really have an excuse for, I was pissing in my dream and woke up to really pissing in the sheets.I have had small pisses like that but just enough to get my under were a little wet

>>695093158Nah I'm still dead asleep, not trapped awake in bed unable to move. It always stops me from calling someone else to come look at this fucking thing/help me. It actually touched me earlier, though, which was weird since my dreams are usually very hands-off experienced even at their whackiest. Now that fucker needs to get laid out.
This reminds me>sleeping>need to pee>walk up to toilet and pee >it's not coming out wtf>realize I walked to the toilet in my dream while my real body is too lazy to get up>dream repeats until I finally get up and pee in reality
>>695092749i hate sleeping on work nights cause the thought of waking up to WORK makes me suicidal. i savor every second of freedom.
>>695089564I was happy in the dream because it was the city burning down, because that would finally mean an end to (((electricity))) and day to day "life" and a start to actual living.

>>695077069If you're still here you probably have acid reflux or some form of gerd, fatty
>>695086573i don't lucid dream, but I have vivid dreams
Anyone get that flashbang effect during sleep paralysis? If I try too hard to move my limbs it feels like an explosion goes off in my brain with a terrible ringing sound
>>695086573Yeah, unironically. Paralysis too. I'm pretty sure my grandads ghost was staring me down one time because at the time I was angry at my gran.
>>695066842HONK SHOOOOOO
>>695075992Dead game.
>>695092284I'm addicted to masturbating so i've never had one
>>695094169I have this thing where sometimes if I enter a very light sleep I will partially open my eyes and hear my family yelling at the top of their lungs at me, all in fits of rage, but I do not move
>>695074731Sleeping on your back is for retards who want to have bugs fly in your mouth and/or nose while they are unconscious Sleeping on your stomach instead of your back was popularized by Black Death paranoia, which showed that you were more likely to get the bubonic plague and die if you sleep on your stomach instead of your back, so people who sleep on their backs are retards
>>695066842I swear this was a plot for a Lovecraft story, but it also included incredibly potent drugs and the guy OD's around the same time he finally makes it to the dream city.

>>695093298Have you tried seducing it? It seems to want the company of a live human.
>>695086573Only very rarely do I not wake up once I become lucid. Last sleep was great though. I was on the run with my ex girlfriend and we gradually fell in love again and befriended a bunch of different groups of people who eventually started running interference against the police, we became like beloved by the community. Then toward the end one of them gave me a flying suit and we glided away. It was nice.
Good night from nemleria
My lucid dreams usually involve ''my house'' which has taken several forms over the years, usually there's a little familiarity about "my house" but they're mostly distortions, larger, and sometimes blended with the office I used to work at or conjoined with neighbouring apartments from when I lived in an apartment. Last dream I remember having there was really graphic; "My house" was part of my old office building again, attached to the underground parking, bike lockups, and bathrooms, the latter of which was absolutely saturated in blood/gore, and everyone using the bathrooms, including myself, were pretending to not notice, which made me feel guilty like I was inadvertently complicit with whatever catastrophe the gore was symptom to; by not reporting it or cleaning it I was guilty of prolonging it.

>it's a dream about being back in school taking a test and I haven't studied for itFuck, I hate these.
>>695095630>it's the final test and I haven't attended a single classwhat the fuck brain? what's your fucking problem?
>>695095630>your report is nine years late
>>695095630I'm almost 40 years old and I still get those, but they're set in college. Then I run out of the class to escape but can't find my car in the parking lot.
>>695095630>he needed to study for testshow, public school is braindead easy
>>695095630for me its missing the bus and being stranded at school. graduated 20 years ago.
>>695095968nta but i was able to pass without studying at all, but algebra tests without studying (and literally sleeping through class) was crazy.why the fuck did the state make me wake up at 6 AM, and then go to algebra at 7:05 AM? that's so fucked up in retrospect.
>>695074018>the information directly enters your brain without the need for worldly wordsSeems pretty good to me.
>>695090608Riding the line of lucidity is a good skill to learn. Just earlier today I was having a lucid dream and nearly woke up, I saw both the ceiling of my room beyond my eyelids and the sky of the dream world before my eyelids. Managed to calm down. I did have someone in a dream teach me how to properly channel myself while lucid, so that probably helped. Besides, I feel being lucid helps me 'feel' a dream more. Sometimes I just like to chew the scenery while lucid. A week ago I even had a small chat with my subconscious, who wanted me to stop being lucid so he could get back in control of the dream.

>>695100371>intentionally stimulate your dopamine system while looking at fake and unrealistic depictions of women which is by definition habit forming>not psychologically harmfulThis is just like how alcoholics, when asked how much the average person drinks in a day, answer five or six drinks. While they drink 8+ per day. The true average is less than 1, and closer to zero than one. Most people don't drink every day or even every week.Similarly, psychologically healthy people tend not to view porn at all, and rarely masturbate, instead choosing to have sex with a romantic partner which satisfies their urges.

>>695090769don't act dumb
I wish sleeping was optional and I could just do it when I want to relaxDreams are mostly either scary as fuck or mind numbing
>>695067167>>695067628>>695067798>>695074018First of all, the "dreams" in Bloodborne aren't literal ones, but the dreamlands/dreamworlds as envisioned by Lovecraft - actual realities you enter whilst you dream.And, per dream logic, time flows differently there - for all Mikolash knows, maybe a month has passed. Or 10 years. Does it matter? The point is he doesn't realise his """real""" body is dead (hint: it's not his real body; everything happening in the game from the point you wake up is another dreamworld - The Hunt).
>>695092108I hate flying in dreams because I would end up falling in it.
>>695101320Are you kidding me? I feel like sleep is the best part of existence. That's the only point of time where I feel one with the cosmic eternity and it is basically a demo version of death.

>>695104989Bro, same. My dreams are so much better than real life...
Lately I've had more physical sensation dreams for some reason.Like, getting stabbed/bit in the neck by mechanical tentacle creatures or such.Or this one dream where I was getting sandwiched between the huge boobs and soft tummies of 2 thicc and motherly anthro snek ladies. We were all naked, standing together with me stuck helplessly between them, they were taller than me, top half of my head barely making out of their cleavage, my toes not touching the ground, then they pressed together and I was submerged in breasts, the sensation of pressure was so vivid I could feel the air getting pushed out of my lungs. Then they eased up, and then squeezed again.I could still feel the boobs pressed against my back for good 10 minutes or so after I woke up.
>>695066842NothingI destroy my body waging then sleep for twelve hours and do it all over againLife is great
>>695105898I wish I could remember the name of the story, it's one of many that didn't make the cut for the big book of Lovecraft stories I have. That just has the most prominent of his works. Though I gotta say, for a guy known for only ever hinting at what the indescribable horrors are, quite of few of his stories he really does describe the indescribable horror well enough that you can get idea of what it looks like.
I'm going to take a comfy nap now
>>695066842Been hooked on Mr. Driller lately, so of course my dreams are never-ending Mr. Driller gameplay. There's always a convenient solution, and there is no bottom.
>>695086573One of the few times i had a lucid dream was about finger from breaking bad shooting my dog while he was at my house, then i remembered that was all just a dream and started screaming asking him to shoot me

>>695086573I sometimes get chased by monsters ptimarily zombies in my sleep. I don't know why.
>>695091087I would always have that dream like in that Superman comic of my life 10 or 15 years in the future, where I would be teaching my kids how to brush their teeth or taking them to their first day at school.

>>695066842I had such a shit dream i just woke up from it and i have to vent.It started by me being on a train to "egypt" to see the pyramids, when i arrived the village wasn't really egypt-like, it had jungles all around and overall very tropical looking. The pyramid there was also renovated and completely blue, with the markings painted on top of this blue layer.After a while i checked the time and i had like 40 minutes until my train goes back so i started looking for a station but there wasn't any. I asked a local where it is but they told me there isn't any, and if i want to get back i need to write a letter to the police chief and he'll take me to the nearest city that has one. I thought that was too much of a chore so i pulled out my tablet and tried to google "how to get home form egypt" but auto correct kept rewriting the words so after like 20 minutes i gave up. I went back to the lady i talked to before but now it turns out a simple letter isn't enough. I need to talk to ang get to know the locals before they can sign my letter, in this latter i will also have to write that i'm a single father here to visit relatives with my baby, and to sell the lie she gave me an empty baby carriege. Also the chief will probably not accept my plea so i have to send it multiple times to him until the governor notices and he'll agree with it no problem.After hearing that bullshit i tried to ask chatgpt how to get back but the autocarrot issue was still there so i got so stresses out i woke up.Except i was still in a dream and the day was the day before the trip, so with this dream in mind i wanted to look up how to get home but my friends barged into my room and we started talking and having fun (i don't know these prople).Then i woke up for real this time because my dog vomited on the floor next to my bed.Good morning anons

>>695095630I occasionally have nightmares about math class
Just woke up from a dream where I and an NPC whom I had met minutes before fought a fucking sentient book as if it were the biggest threat to the fabric of reality. I remember there was another character watching, and she was so obviously emotionally attached to this book that as soon as I dealt the final blow, I walked away without looking and started silently weeping on the other side of this weird, frozen crater hoping no one would notice. Dreams are fucking weird. One minute you're explaining to some guy that you're not high while walking through a forest, the next you're co-op'ing with him against a bizarre FromSoft boss that lorefags would cream themselves over. I wish I could force myself to have dreams that feel like weird video games more often.There were also these guys leading up to the book who were essentially monks who had dedicated their entire lives to forming a small sun suspended above their fingertips. I don't know why we were fighting - I don't think either of us wanted to fight, it was more like we were forced to by circumstance because they were drawn to the book. The only reason they could even be defeated was that almost all of their energy was being dedicated to containing that small sun, and breaking their concentration even slightly while fighting caused it to expand and kill them instantly.

>>695115440I remember taking coffee or tea at regular intervals to mitigate the sleepiness. Melatonin was a godsend for me as I was extremely stressed at that point in life and couldn't sleep properly which in turn lead to acute gastric issues. Good sleep fixes a lot of things in life.

I read that lucid dreaming tip to look at the clock in ur dream, then look away and look back again - the hour will always be different and it literally unlocked lucid dreaming at will for me. Then I started doing this compulsively every night until I had to literally stop fucking thinking about it because otherwise every dream was now lucid and sometimes I just want to get a good night's fucking sleep. I feel kinda scared to try it again.

>>695118271I've been doing this for years too but with written language because i don't wear a watch.

I do enjoy interacting with my unconscious a lot and i think it's super beneficial to be aware of what's bothering me on a repressed level, but man sometimes i would fucking love to just get some good rest especially if i know i have to be extra focused the following day at work.

>>695118141>>695118859Waking up multiple times a night can is often caused by stress, but can also be a symptom of sleep apnea. Do you often feel like you need to pee when waking up?

Especially shit that's done for a long duration, for example walking in the woods or biking for 4-6 hours.t. >>695119461

>>695122485A coworker had to leave because had a serious heart issue and he found out that way
>>695123492your coworker was sleeping in work?
>>695092284Only when i don't masturbate for like 2 or 3 weeks, which barely ever happens. I wake up around 3am every night with a raging boner and it's either jerk it down or lose an hour of sleep and i need my sleep.
>>695124248I rember when I could go over a week without fapping. Stress' a bitch.
>>695092284I had one a few months ago and I thought I pissed myself at first
>>695066936This tread is over.
>>695066842Ourselfs...
>>695078513Dreams give me a sense of dread and hopelessness since all my subconscious insecurities lay bare in front of me which I cannot escape, shower right into my face as to mock me. They are there to notify me of the absurdity of this world, that we are not only predictable animals but also ever working machines that in reality never rest. Having vivid dreams only worsen the situation, since after a day long existence you come to close your eyes for once only to live another life again, just to "wake up" in the next, never having peace.
>>695066842The eternal problem with sleeping is that when you wake up you have to go to work.
>>695086573I don't even try it, it just happens.The only thing keking me out of it is my body heat skyrocketing, making me sweat buckets in the real world and waking up from it.
>>695066842I don't normally branch out and play indie games but something drew me to this one, I think I even finished it too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=r_dii9zDgqo
Here's a protip from a lifelong insomniac:Keep a book that has short sections or chapters next to your bed. If you wake up in the night, read the short chapters until you fall asleep. DO NOT look at your phone or laptop or anything like that.I keep Dante's Divine Comedy on my bedside table and read a few Cantos if I wake up.
>>695107919>fiction doesn't translate to realityoh yeah? then explain this>>695069045you're a faggot
>>695126116Have you considered dealing with those insecurities when awake, to be freed of them while sleeping? Your subconscious is tormenting you for a reason anon.
>>695067498Don't argue with waketards.Brain fog doesn't respond well to rational debate.
>worked 60 hours in night shifts last 5 days because understaffed and boss is desperate>snow and ice in my very hilly area so now have to walk to work>still got two nights left on the clockI'm so fucking tired bro's
>>695095630>utterly mediocre in school, not good but not bad either>basically never studied for any test ever>never had school dreams, even while in school
>>695107583This happens to me a lot too, but i always get away by outlandish methods. Like flying away, or floating through a window. For some reason when i'm dreaming i can just fly and do weird shit even though sometimes it's not even a properly lucid dream. The only time i remember not getting away is where i dreamt i was being chased by a horde of zombies through a forest and i gave up trying to flee, so i sat down next to a tree, took the gun i had and shot myself in the head. I could feel my whole body becoming limp and unable to move, i woke up extremely disturbed.
>>695129096That's great advice actually thanks anon
>>695131054I've killed myself in nightmares before since I knew in it that I would just wakeup. I often think if i do it in real life whether I would wake up from the simulation.
>tfw I once had a dream where I shot up my old school>all I remember was that it ended with me running out of bullets after I locked myself in a closet and tried taking the easy way out
>>695074731I tried sleeping on my back once and I had to constantly be conscious of the position of my body because otherwise I would automatically turn over to lay on my bellyAfter a while preventing my body from moving was agonizing, I couldn't rest in that position at all
>>695110168just walk away lmao

>>695095630>it's a dream about being back in school taking a test and I haven't studied for it>remember I'm not in school anymore and I'm just there for the sake of it>walk out without a single fuck givenI have defeated my demons
>>695108632I have to punch
>>695120067I sort of do, but it's a bit fuzzy. No I never saw her again. Maybe it will be on my deathbed.
>>695067976do you have difficulty sleeping or what? 10 hours is pretty normal when not setting an alarmdoes lavender tea *enhance* the sleep part?
>>695101741>everything happening in the game from the point you wake up is another dreamworld - The HuntAnon you meet other hunters who woke up from the dream, the shit is very real.
>>695130253Cope. Everyone is insecure one way or another, you ain't dealing with shit. The only people that do are dumb fucks who can't recognize their own reflection and have no time to think. Insane chucks who buck broken and decided to dedicate their whole life to a single autistic theme, or gigaMystics that dedicated half of their life to understand at least some of the symbolism and functions of the unconscious to at least attempt to do something about it, not necessarily successfully.
>>695137360I hope you will meet her again sooner. Maybe even in real life
>>695112092It happens if it's not dark enough. Sometimes I will fall asleep lightly, crack open my eyes, and begin to see a face manifesting in the wall. The face will not speak, but it will look at me and ringing akin to tinnitus begins until I stop looking at it.
>>695074731If I sleep on my back I suffer insane night sweats. I wake up a few hours after falling asleep and it's as if someone poured a bucket of water on me and the bed. This never used to happen until a few months ago.
>>695113519It would assume so but it's stopped happening ever since I moved. When I go sleep at the old house it happens again, I suspect it's because it's much quieter there and the new place has city noises.
>>695137669>everyone is insecureagreed>you ain't dealing with shitI disagree, but I think we have some miscommunication. It's true you cannot completely remove them, many things also cannot be fixed in any real way. But you can diminish the effect these insecurities have on you, to the point where they don't cripple you or constantly invade your subconscious.
>>695100942just sleep it off bro
how are you still alive nigga
>>695114507The sunbros sounded ill prepared
>>695114934I kind of just get it when I'm in extreme quiet. It's more like I can see into the room but I hear them slowly get louder and louder.

>go to bed at 9>read book until 10>sleep until 6>meet up at work fresh af>all my boomer co-workers got lol no sleep thanks to kids or overwork
>>695066842When I was younger I used to be able to sleep for 12-16 hours, be wide awake for 3 or 4 days and then crash for another 16 hours and I felt great all the time.Now I'm exhausted from the time I wake up, can't sleep for more than ten minutes without then waking up and tossing and turning for hours.Honestly, I've been thinking about killing myself. Some days I'm so tired I can't think straight. I almost rear ended a car at a red light with my eyes wide open and just staring at it and I don't know why, for some reason I just didn't register that I needed to stop until the last second.I miss sleep.
>>695130609Learn to say no, bitch. Set those boundaries. People will respect you more for it.
>>695066842Literally depression.
>>695066842I love sleep. It's the only time of the day where I'm not haunted by my loud tinnitus and jumping at every sound because my hearing is fucked up. While I lay there in my bed, I conjure up whatever wonderful games and they play just like I want them to.
>>695137960I would love to but it would probably never happen. All my dreams now are strange things like waking up as an old man in a snow covered house in the woods, dragging meat-filled bags into the freezing bedroom and watching a pickup truck deliver more.Or when it does feature a friendly girl, she usually is more like a kid and we're fleeing shadowy factory workers who are pursuing us through a massive, dark warehouse filled with screaming, person-sized postal packages being tossed into pits that are then filled with cement.Romance dreams are so rare but I still remember her all these years later. I remember the dance, I remember the kiss, I remember feeling like I understood what non-familial love was. It's a feeling I've never felt again.
>>695137370>10 hrs sleep is pretty normalWtf i can barely get 6 hours of sleep even tho i go to bed at a time that should give me 9 hours of sleep
>>695138631Yes, but at the end of the day you are talking ideals.
>>695107468This causes my neck to be sore from looking down all nightI can straighten out manually while awake, I have plenty of room, but getting all crooked again when asleep is a pain
>>695074731>>695107468i have a really bad sleeping position.i sleep on my tummy, but with one arm folded and tucked beneath it and the other the same but behind my back and it effect my circulatin and my arm gets sore. but i can't get to sleep any other way. used to lay on my back and hold my nec in a choking postion too. sometimes i wish i could take off my arms at night just to fall asleep

>>695095630For me, it's the last semester of college with two weeks to go, and I realize there's a class I completely forgot I even had. Haven't shown up, haven't done any of the work, and now I have to do all of it or else I can't graduate.And I have it a lot.

>>695143827I think a male's first rejection is life-defining and the first time he gets sorted into the loser pile. Most men who suffer it end up believing their entire life trajectory would have been different if they never experienced it.
>>695143698Ah fuck I have this one too but it's even worse, I can't catch up, I only find out I totally forgot it near the end of the semester past the final withdraw date and it's permanently lowered my GPA because I missed all the exams for it. Then I go into a normal class final and absolutely bog it because I'm feeling such stress from the realization before.Then I cannot graduate, because it was a core course.Ultimate despair.Of course I graduated years ago, but man it's soul crushing.
>>695095630>>695119353After graduating, for at least a year and a half I had a recurring nightmare about having forgotten about a biochem course and not being able to find when the exam was or being out of time to study for it. Sometimes it was about somehow not having signed up for enough courses that year to fill all credits. This was probably caused by the trouble I had trying to do a thesis during covid lockdown 2020.At least nowadays my nightmares have switched to being stuck under a shrinking stairwell or walking down a city street when some guys near an alley tell me "hey hey dude come over here you have to come here come on we have to cut off your fingers" and then I look and there's a bandsaw behind them.
>>695144046I was never rejected by her though. She was just this girl that was the most beautiful girl that i had ever seen, eventually even was on friendly terms with her later in high school but even when i had a gf i still obsessed over her beauty. It was just a deep crush that never went anywhere. The girl that actually rejected me in high school is completely non existent in my dreams or waking thoughts.

>>695149267I never nap because of that, there is no point. Some people do it with ease but napping fucks my entire day up. I'd rather force myself to stay awake then go to bed at an accepted time and sleep for 14 hours straight.
I wish I could sleep. My pelvic bones destroy the meat around them when I lie on my side, my stomach gets crushed for some reason when I lie on my back or try to sleep sitting up. Send help.

>>695079123My nigger
>>695098228i think someone on here once said that touching dream objects helps maintain the dream state. i used to have the problem where i would wake up as soon as i became lucid, but i realized after maybe a year of it that i was only dreaming that i woke up. i could only tell in retrospect because my room layout was different when i actually woke up. but even realizing this, the dreams about waking up are still occasionally a problem because i would go from being confident about the dream state to unsure. it's a tricky thing, wagering that the world you're in is immaterial before trying to rape one of its inhabitants.

Games where sleeping is a pathway to fantastic powers ftw.
>>695162224It was unfortunately not the full set, there was no Fenrakk. I found Vezon alone sitting on the top of a thrift store's free toy bin and carried him home then washed him off. Since he was also missing his Spear of Fusion I gave him a spare Airblade I found in a parking lot.I didn't have much of the sets from that time, however Mahri Nui was my favorite arc and I had a bunch from that. Gadunka is the best, got him from a free toy giveaway as a kid somehow, literal dream set.
