Thread: Talking out loud

There's a lot of anecdotal evidence for this. Consider the movies where you see someone waking up in a cold-sweat repeating some emotionally-charged statement even as they regain consciousness.

I don't believe that there is a necessarily a sharply-defined cutoff between dreaming and waking. How often have any of us been "waken" by somebody asking us something, and later we don't recall the conversation?

I woke up last night after a F.A. where i talked with disembodied voices. i had a conversation, but the last word was kinda stuck, so i only said half of it, and i could swear i said it out loud irl. I'm pretty sure the talking woke me up.

Thinking I'm really talking happens to me fairly often when I'm lucid. I think it usually wakes me up if I'm not lucid.

I get that "words getting stuck" feeling a lot too; then I imagine it's because I'm actually trying to say them, but sleep paralysis is preventing it, and I can feel that.

All in all, somewhat annoying, I agree.

I've gotten that feeling a few times, that I'd just been talking in half sleep. Good thing no on is around to hear me.

I get hung up on a certain word and end up waking up from forcing it out. I rarely happens when I am already lucid, but rather I become lucid when it begins to happen. I realize that this is something that happens in dreams, and I slowly become aware of my body until I finally say whatever I had to say and fully wake up.
This happens a lot when I am on the phone in dreams.

I know this is a pretty old post, but I find my self waking up laughing sometimes. In my dreams however I have what I have named Dream Gum that does not allow me to talk at times. I have come to believe I get this dream gum when I am about to talk in my sleep.

I've had one of those silly "waking up while asking an important question" lucid dreams before, but that's the extent. I've never had any trouble speaking or shouting (though sometimes in lucid dreams I cannot believe how loud I am shouting!).

Does the gum taste good? XD

Apparently, I was answering a phone in my dream when I woke up. I reached over to grab an imaginary phone and proceeded to place it to my ear and say "Hello?". Then I noticed there was nothing in my hand, and I was in bed.

in my dream i heard my phone vibrating next to me so i picked it up. the sound from the reciever was a little gargled but it was my GF telling me to get up and stop being lazy, right then i woke up and i was holding the phone and lying in bed talking to her.
