I once had a dream where I woke up, went downstairs, had breakfast and just as I was about to take my first bite I woke up. Then I went downstairs, repeated the same actions and woke up again. I did this 5 times until I woke up for real, and I really questioned if I was dreaming this time again or if I had actually woke up. It was one of the most confusing dreams I've had

For some reason sleeping with complete cleanliness and praying a little stopped it from occurring.

I want to share this story of mine. Ive experienced multiple false awakenings in a single morning. The most must have been roughly 5-7 times, but not in a row. I “woke” up a couple of times, with random events going on each time. Suddenly, I had actually woken up but I think I had sleep paralysis. My body and eyes were so heavy it was impossible to move around more than a few inches. I had fallen back to sleep shortly afterwards and cycled through another false awakening once or twice before I woke up. I ran to the bathroom and splashed water in my face because I didn’t want to go back to sleep😂

[@PlasmonixRBX]

Has anybody experienced dreaming about dreaming? Because i have before and that resulted in Sleep Paralysis because it tricked my mind so much, for example my mind thought that i was actually awake but then i found myself unable to move and then that turned into a lucid nightmare. Then i woke up and it was 3:00 AM and found myself on the floor, so many things were racing in my mind that i wasn't able to fall asleep.

[@lululovesbirdies]

Nightmares are cool, honestly. Often in a nightmare I get chased and I can’t scream, sometimes breathing becomes hard in the dream. But during the chase, realization happens and I stop running, the thing that’s chasing me catches me. How I wake up: I first have to calm myself down, because of the chase. I close my eyes to not see anything disturbing, and I breathe in slowly. After a while I open my eyes and I woke up.

my personal experience with false dreams: every single time, it's some absurd situation, like fighting an octopus monster with a magic sword, and then i realise "wait, this is a dream, this shit is so fucking stupid." and then i snap my fingers and kill whatever monster is attacking me, and lucid dream for a little bit before waking up. also, about nightmares. most of the time, if i have a nightmare, there's a clock. and i don't know if that has something to do with my psyche, but i can just stare at the clock, imagine it rotating really fast, and keep chanting "wake up, wake up, wake up" in a hypnotic way and it almost always fades me slowly into conciousness.

[@aisforapple2494]

I have experienced what I call "circular dreaming". I often fall asleep with the TV on and in the late '80s, they used to have "headline news" every 15 minutes and it caused me to have the same short dream over and over, which would eventually wake me up. Once, I went to sleep with a CD on repeat and I had a dream that began in a creepy old house, opening a door and seeing a classic horror movie character (Dracula, Mummy, Frankenstein, etc.) behind every new door I opened. I would run upstairs (stupid, I know) and go through yet another door, then the dream would change, and when it "ended", I would be back at the beginning discovering the various monsters again, go upstairs and through the same door, the dream would be totally different from the initial one, and when it "ended", I'd be back discovering the monsters again. I went through this about 6 times before I woke up and realized that the CD on repeat was the culprit.

[@antontribelgorn3641]

about Lucid dreams, I often have them but the second the realization occurs, it feels like the dream world starts falling apart (especially if I try to use my power over it), and I wake up in seconds. Like, reality is breaking completely, falling apart at the seams, with tears opening around me with the real world looking through them, best way to describe it would be "destabilizing rapidly". The only way to prevent everything from being destroyed is to forget the fact that you are in a dream ASAP, and if done the dream will go on for a couple more (in-dream) minutes.

[@user-oq7xc5qp3y]

In normal dreams you aren't in control, and so forgeting something on purpose is possible. But why can you do that in lucid dreams? Or, to be more precise, is it you, who forgets?

[@user-yr9mi2pn9y]

There are different ways to stabilize the dream. Do some research and experiment with different methods until you find the ones that work best for you. Mine was to simply close my eyes for a few seconds and reopen them. Other people spin around themselves. Others shout "Make the dream clear now!". You should try a few and I'm sure one of them will work. Also, to avoid waking up, just avoid intense excitement and emotions as they are known to cause people to wake up. Simply keep calm and observe and sense your surroundings until you feel grounded.

[@xenny5358]

yes! oh my god! i thought it was just me! this has happened multiple times, the way the dream destabilizes is different every time, and i forget im dreaming almost immediately, im thrown into a different dream, or i instantly wake up. the first time i was walking through my neighborhood until my walking begins to slow and that's when i shout, "oh, im lucid! i did it!" immediately my surroundings fall apart, i would describe it as a watercolor painting on paper that someone splashed with water and crumbled up. i woke up very disturbed.

[@antontribelgorn3641]

@user-oq7xc5qp3y Yes, act as if you weren't in a dream (preferably by talking to characters in it), and the information wipes itself out of your mind. For me, trying to force the world to comply to your power just makes everything worse, and I don't even feel excited which may wake you up, I just think to myself "oh well, guess the dream ends now"

[@user-oq7xc5qp3y]

@@antontribelgorn3641 what I am trying to say: "is it you who makes that decision?". The other thing is: how do you remember that acting that way makes a dream to calm down? Like, in a dream, you don't have all of your memories. You have some, mostly those that are a part of the said dream. Even if they didn't happen. Hell, you probably don't remember your own name most of the time in dreams. But why does this exact memory shows up?

I had a very basic form of healing dream when I was like 6 or 7. So those days, I’d often get nosebleeds and I would cry my ass out every time, it really terrified me. Apparently my inner nose skin was thin or sensitive so it would be easily wounded. Every single time I’d nosebleed, I’d cry hysterically. One night I had a very simple dream. Me and my parents were walking in a mall, a mall I recognize but can’t remember at the moment. And randomly in my dream, I had a nosebleed, and I somehow did not care or share any reaction, it was just like “ohh, a nosebleed.” I closed my nose with my towel and kept walking. Shortly after, I woke up remembering everything and I just felt like I wasn’t scared of nosebleeds anymore, it would be true as a few days later, I had gotten another nosebleed yet I wasn’t a tad bit scared

I think that prophetic dreams are just pattern recognition done by the brain during sleep in a predictive form. The dreams become about your real life routine and vague enough that there is a very high chance that something in the future will remind you of one of the probably millions of dreams your brain makes every night. Kinda like a mix between survivorship bias and a thousand forgotten episodes of The Simpsons or South Park done about your life every night.

my version of false awakening is that I wake up after a really bad dream and what ends up happening is I go to find my parents/pets/family members/etc only to find them dead (in a gruesome way), and that is enough to “wake me up”. this often repeats for hours at a time until I finally can break from it, but by the time i break it i’m often scared to go and find out if my household is even still alive or not.

[@omnianima4540]

I was so fascinated by lucid dreaming since I heard about it, but it happened only once and it was so random. I had already dreamed a set of intense dream story lines where I was questioning the reality of things happening. I left this building where that was taking place, was in a city like Vegas, went down a a subway and saw 3 little cute baby cats. The moment I petted them I became aware of the dream, I went back to where I came from, but the building was different, I wanted to investigate the stuff. Ended up in a hotel where I played around with the decoration and wall colors and my own clothing. Then I went outside, some things were still dreamish, like the red carpet leading to the hotel door was wiggling with the ground. And I was only seeing the street where this hotel was, surrounded by a lot of skyscrapers, that city resembled more something like new york. I was in the middle of the street and was like "I wanna fly" since that was the one thing I was fascinated most about in lucid dreams. So I flew up, the moment I passed a threshhold of being above the skyscrapers, I saw that my brain did not "proceduraly generate" more than a big square ish city planning. I guess it was that realization of oh wait something is wrong, that made me fall all the way down through the ground into a colorful nothingness, the borders looked like shapes when you cut open a rubber band ball. I wanted to materialize something out of this nothingness, but I couldn't and woke up. Was intense.

This also kinda reminds me of something that happened as i was falling asleep. This occured about two years ago, my radio was playing and i was drifting off to sleep, but all of a sudden everything became extremely loud, like it was bass boosted in a YT edit. I remember hearing my thoughts being screamed. It wasnt exploding head syndrome, because the sound was literally just the sounds going on in my room at the time, and definitely not random. I wish i remembered the song playing but i remember it was a sappy love song. I still havent pieced together why that happened, and it hasnt happened since.

[@mooon_val]

Something similar happened to me a couple of times continuosly throught a month or so last year It was a similar situation - I were drifting off to sleep, and, when I were almost falling asleep, I were surrounded by a black void, my toughts (including the song I had stuck in my head at the time) all being spoken all at the same time and loudly. I also felt a sense of dread and anxiety, I couldn't move, I tried speaking (but my voice came out too weak or not at all, I'm not sure if I actually spoke out of the 'dream'), but then some seconds or even a minute in-dream passes and I "wake up".

Dreams are my favorite source of weird, crazy, and impossible situations. I will give several examples on what can happen in my dreams: Giant snake, general chaos, a robot chasing me, your classmate trying to explode school (which I was partially responsible for since in that dream I DID experiment with explosives. For some reason.) by the way these four examples were at school. Giant gem that's actually a dungeon, including puzzles, kitchen, and risk of dying to a gun. Being able to dash IRL and escape... something through spiral that shouldn't be where it was. Giant dinosaur-like creature who is so blind hiding behind a small tree, which doesn't really hide me from it, is enough to escape it's sight. My home being like five times higher, and somehow few people being able to kick balls THAT high (for reference, I was on 64th floor in that dream). One time I dreamt I was playing a game and was locked in something that didn't exist there, while trying to play the regular game (I think it was a nightmare from how I describe it). A classic (to me) example of my dreams, Floor In Space. Or that one chicken that got murderous at sight of broken tablet. A lot of times in my dreams layouts of certain locations change completely yet I can still tell what location I know it's suppose to be. I consider my dreams weird, and I love it :)

I actually had a weird sleep paralysis moment from when I was younger. During this time, I could remember entire plots to movies, so two times, I remember staring at my wall and then seeing a screen pop up in front of me, where I would watch a SpongeBob episode or a movie, and interact with the people in it. It was weird, because I felt like I couldn't move or even blink or it will go away. I've never had sleep paralysis since then, however. I also kinda had creative dreams, but in the way where they inspire stories

[@aiiiia9971]

I get false awakening dreams fairly often? And it is VERY annoying. Perhaps even more irritating is that mine rarely make enough sense to really trick me into thinking they are real (so they become more like lucid dreams), so I begin to feel trapped in this surreal dream reality just trying to find some way to escape and get awake but not knowing what to do. Sometimes I "succeed", only to find out that I am STILL in a dream, rinse and repeat. These can be quite uncomfortable sometimes, thankfully they usually don't get too dark for me, they are just a bit eerie and unpleasant

It mangled me till 'death' 2nd time- woke up, saw the same gnome on my bed, again, mangled me till death, 3rd time felt more realistic, woke up, no gnome on my bed or anywhere, i got out of bed, put on my school uniform, had breakfast, brushed my teeth, yknow the normal stuff. walked to school with my mum, then my mum threw me into the road and i got hit by a car and then woke up. wowww thanks mum in the 3rd dreammm :))))

[@justanormalaccount1958]

Finally got my question answered, false awakening was the weirdest thing I felt. Starts off with me waking up, then doing my daily morning routine to go to school; then while I was going, (Which, I don't even believe was my school) cars in the area suddenly crashed towards each other then I managed to avoid the cars which were all destroyed. Then, while I was in school (My brain is still trying to process what my school looks like, so it looked familiar and unfamiliar at the same time.) If I remember correctly, there were kids calling my name then I suddenly woke up, I guess at this point I was lucid dreaming because I've told my dad about my dream while still being in a dream. I did the same thing, but instead of going to the school I just went over to the area until I just see some random things occur like a man floating and a person just phasing on a wall. It was really. weird, Then I woke up for real, couldn't even comprehend my dream at that point lol.

When I get very painful stomach cramps, I experience semi-lucid hallucinations. When I had my last cramp, I tried to sleep it off, but it was so painful that I couldn't fall asleep, but I had a hallucination where space was distorted. I was in a daycare, which was larger than my bed, but the same size as it at the same time. I remember that I was in the daycare with a friend of mine and other people and we all had stomach cramps. The daycare was similar to the one in the Doom mod "My House". I think it was that because that day I watched a video about it. In another stomach cramp hallucination that I had, I was a country in the HOI4 mod TNO. I still remember it. It was Tajikistan and I was fighting a war with all the random no content countries in that region and they would always beat me up, making me feel the cramp. I would always hear a voice saying "If you win, the pain will stop.". This one was because I had played TNO that day.

I used to have recurring dreams. One of them is that i would be in an empty café (first time it was not empty, my dad, who died between the dreams because they happened a few years apart, was there) and i would go into a cupboard thing and there was a large, purple monster, sort of in the style of where the wild things are who would tickle me. The crazy thing is i had never watched that film. Anyway, the first time I had it, it terrified me and i woke in a cold sweat. However, the second time i watched it, i loved it and it was a pleasant dream. I also used to have the reoccurring dream that i could jump really high (like probably 20 feet) but every time i did, i could feel the wind and g force on my body and could feel the impact when i hit the ground but it didn't hurt. However i think one time i landed and twisted my ankle and it actually hurt. This dream occurred many times between my parent's deaths (a 3 year time period) and then stopped and i haven't had it since. Very weird.

I remember my most recent nightmare was, at the time of writing this, on the night of February 4th, 2024. I was on the balcony of an office building. Why an office building would have a balcony, I'm not sure. I'll bet it could cause several OSHA violations, but I digress. My body began levitating as I left the balcony to return to my cubicle. Now in my dreams, I can normally float, fly, and walk on walls ceilings, etc. But this was different. I was yanked back to the balcony by an invisible force. I tried to grab onto something, but I couldn't. Objects crashed through the glass windows. The sun was black with a yellow halo contrasting with the orange sky, once blue a moment ago. Buildings toppled, roads crumbled, trees, grass, and birds were dying, and tens of thousands of people floated toward this void, myself among them. And everything went dark.

Sleep paralysis is usually accomunate with a lack of sleep. Use to have it on the daily at school, when unfortunately I would fall asleep at my table after not having slept through the night, then wake up and not be able to move for a good few seconds. No, a weapon is not gonna help you, the panic you feel is just because you can't move and will go away immediately and no, you can't "try to move your toes" as the whole point of sleep paralysis is hour mind being awake but not being able to control your body because that is still asleep

[@joshuamw93]

@@yasininn76 I used to have it all the time as well and it really only occurred when I slept during the daytime (regardless of lack of sleep or not), especially when I worked at night and had to sleep during the day. Also I would say that I don't think your mind is fully awake during it, well for me I don't think it was. It's really hard to say because my surroundings looked dead on accurate but I would also experience hallucinations and occurrences that couldn't of happened irl. I also actually wouldn't mind experiencing it with someone else (preferable awake and active) In the same room as me just to know for sure if I'm actually awake or not. Another thing is at first I could wiggle my toes and doing so would wake me up but that shortly stopped happening the more I used that method to wake myself up. I've also noticed that the more sleep paralysis attacks I have the longer they become and the harder it is to wake myself up. It went from lasting only a couple of seconds to it feeling like more than an hour being in that state.
