hmm............ this is quite weird O.o maybe you should stop drinking caffeine for now until someone gives u a SOLID answer |

I had a lot of weird dreams last night. I couldn't sleep until about 3 or 4AM, partially because I was loaded on caffeine, and caffeine gives me weird dreams. A lot of them didn't have a really deep meaning I think, except for one. It was more of an image than a dream, I would be having a normal dream when this would interrupt it. It stayed for about 10 seconds or so and then my dream would resume. I saw it several times, and it's bothered me all day, so much that I came here. |

And I refuse to return to thid topic because it scares me..... if you have any more questions, than msg me |

It must of been something you saw that day before you went to sleep for example: I watched TV there was a Horror movie & in that horror movie there was some stabbing another person with a knife then you Mother says "Change the channel I don't like horror's" so you did That night you began to sleep & as you sleep your Brain begins the process of picking what memorys are important & whats not & thats when the dream comes in then some how whatever it was caffine some how stuffed the whole memory process up & therefore thats how the dream was created |
|
Gr8tGod - Normally, I would agree with you. But this was different; I hadn't watched anything on TV that night, and while caffeine might have influenced the severity of my dreams, I don't think it changed the actual meaning... At least with this one. I feel like the meaning is somewhere in the back of my mind, but I can't quite reach it. |

More likely you just pulled up the most horrific imagery your overstimulated, nightmarish state of mind could dream up. So the question is, what horrifies you more: the idea of pregnancy itself, or the idea of something horrific happening to a pregnant woman (your mother)? |
|
I don't think the concern was pregnancy itself, and I don't think I was horrified by the thought of something happening to the woman or my mom. Infact, the figure in my dream seemed kinda... malicious. Harmful. I might even go so far as to say evil. |
|
try tomorrow, does this reoccur? (yes i have returned cauz it's BRIGHT DAY and im not horrified by what you said anymore) dreams are a way of telling you something via metaphors, this is clearly the metaphor....... |
|
I haven't had the dream again and it's been a few days.... *sighs* |
|
You can use menmonic induction, and "brainwash" yourself, with the thought of your dream and with the message "i want to have, again the dream of the headless pregnate woman." for example. Try it. |

I recommend you don't try it. While some nightmares may be disturbing, their significance and effects are only confined to that dream. For your own sake, DO NOT attempt to have it again. Re-occuring nightmares are horrible, life changing, and worst of all, hard to get rid of. |

Yes, you are.. It was disturbing, yes, but NEVER EVER try to make these dream reoccur. You see, I have had bad experiences with reoccurring dreams (shivers). (And I am a very daring guy, mind you. O_o) |

Well, thanks for listening to my advice. I hope you take it, too. |

Yeah, I know what you mean, I had similar imagery sometimes, coming randomly in a normal dream, just that I've never felt disturbed, witnessing violence like looking at something usual. Do you have the habit or passion in violent games, films, music, thoughts? These kind of things came out in my dreams especially after watching such films. Some time ago in one of my dreams I was walking on a street, turned my head to the other side of the road and saw a man screaming in pain having a mutilated foot holding for the hand a little kid only wearing underwear that was staring at the cut foot on the ground... I can't find a meaning to this kind of imagery too... but in your case seems logical to link a pregnant woman to... your mum. Maybe it's just an inconscious fear of having a sister or a brother |

I just want to thank everyone for the responses. A month to the date later, and still no conclusions... But it's given me the motivation I need for getting back in to dreams and keeping a dream jounral, so that's a good thing :] still, I can't forget that distinct feeling I had during the dream... It's still morbid and bothersom. |

Yes, it's impossible to reproduce a dream, either with paintings or sounds because in my opinion what really matters in every dream, it's not what you do, see, hear or experience, but how you feel when you're having those experiences. Many times what you see or percieve in dreams is nothing more than a mirror reflecting what you feel like, echoing through both conscious and unconscious dimensions. |
|
Agreed. It's impossible to really express a dream like you dreamt it. When I showed my sister the pictures of the pregnant woman she just thought I was morbid and creepy for drawing such a thing, and didn't seem to really understand. |
