Nightmares..........

Blimey

That`s one thing I`ve never had, seeing myself in a dream, I`m always me - if that makes sense.............

only time in 50+ years, still makes me squirm a bit.

Yes I bet it does, hopefully be the one and only time

I would probably only be slighlty spooked next time as I'd realise it's the "looking at myself dream", which would be less bad than the "can't move, can't shout out" dream even though I now know what that is.

Ive had this and mine is a Japanese / Chinese string clown puppet at the end of my bed . I cant move or speak but i think i am awake .
I saw something on TV about it and its quite common , the dreams seem to have seven scenarios ranging from the clown , old woman , wolf etc . Now i know i'm not mental i just wake myself up as i know its a dream . Not had it for many years mind you but alot in my 30's .

I put it down to a over imaginative imagination though the physical side dont make sense

For quite a few reasons, I had a very stressful last year at university a long time ago which culminated in a bit of a crisis before my final exams in early June. Every year since, in late May, I have an exam horror nightmare. Quite a few of my contemporaries say that they have one too. The massive sense of relief when waking and realising that all that crap was just a bad dream is absolutely wonderful.

After I retire (whenever that will be), I'm looking forward to dreaming that I still need to get up for work, only to wake up to discover that this is no-longer the csse and to be able to go back to sleep again happy.

Been going through a spate of these lately, don`t know why, this happen to anybody else??

Had a really bad night in the middle of this week, don`t even know what I was dreaming about, but woke up totally cold, and terrified, I had to go downstairs and make myself a drink, and when I looked at myself in the mirror, I was WHITE! I had to comfort myself too "you`re at home and safe, nobody can hurt you" Eventually I settled enough to go back to bed, but why?? I`ve mentioned here that I`d love to change my job as I hate the people I work with, they are nasty but not enough to keep me awake at night, and otherwise life is good.

I`m starting to get afraid to go to sleep now!

I go through phases of bad nightmares. Have done for donkeys years. Kinda got used to it now.
