You only remember the ones where the plot goes totally off the rails, dialogue makes no sense, and acting is just bizarre. Whoever is writing this trash is chronically incapable of producing anything even remotely good. It’s either forgettably mediocre or experimental chaos and pure madness.
Haha your dreams just suck
😃 Yeah, they sure do. Could be worse though. Haven’t had any nightmares in a long time.
My nightmares are weird. They are not jump-scare/dude with a knife following me fucked up but certain experiences that influence your world view for the worse or such a mindfuck. Combined with elements of trying to wake up from a dream, getting up from bed to get a glass of water, for the dream to continue. Like, in the dream you get out of bed, the mindfucked events still take place, you pince. Eake up in bed, still in dream. Sometimes multiple times in a row. Eventually I actually wake up in the real world and the experience fucks with me for 2 hours. I am really lucid in my dreams so the difference between dream and reality is really foggy when I just wake up. You learn to live with it.
I also suffered from sleep paralysis for very long but haven’t experienced in a long time.
Dreams feel surprisingly normal and real, and I think that has something to do with the way your mind works while dreaming. At least I seem to lose my control of emotions, which can result in violent outbursts, and other types of uncharacteristic behavior. Also, my critical thinking abilities are mostly gone while dreaming, so I’ll just go with the flow and fail to realize how wrong everything is.
I’ve also had a few crossover dreams like the one you mentioned, but those only happen if I’m in very light sleep. If my dreams involve a false wake up, it’s because I’m aware that I need to get up. Normally, that level of awareness is disabled or otherwise unavailable. Probably doing some sort of defragging, updating and maintenance in the background.
