So those times I lay there thinking about random things could actually be N-REM dreams? I might have to do a reality check next time I do that. |

Just read this from a musty old dream book. Though it worth sharing: |

That's no news, but that information did not reach many people yet. They simply woke people in a sleeping lab that were in various sleep stages and asked if and what they dreamed. The result was that people infrequently dreamed during all stages of sleep or at least that dream recall was more or less clear for varying sleep stages. REM stage had the most positives though. |

Does the book explain further on brain function/activity during the sleep stages? Like is there any inherent thought patterns etc. I find only certain 'frequency' of thoughts get through but question is does it come from stage 2 right before REM or when REM happens. |

If I work at waking after all of my dreams (which I am often too lazy to bother with) I end up waking briefly after EVERY dream, even my non-REM dreams. Makes for a very up-and-down night! |

i was sick with a bad cough and sore throat just two days ago. It was keeping me up all night and to the point where i can never lose consciousness. I think I know what this post is saying because I spent an 8 hour period just thinking, but at the same time, i knew i was not fully awake as well. ITs a very ambiguous state. |

Hm, so this is why I "woke up" this morning trapped in my own random thoughts for about 30 minutes. It took that long before I realized I was awake. |

Cool. So when this sort of thing hapens, it's probably nREM dreaming. I'll have to look into this some more. |

JET73L's dream journal
This reminds me of something I read a while back that said many people who claim to have insomnia really do not. They just dream that they are lying in bed awake with restless thoughts. When observed, they are really sleeping for most of the night. |
|
This is really interesting, I think this may have happened to me a couple of days ago. I was laying in bed, I think I was awake, but later I had this really crazy sequence of about 7 false awakenings hitting me one after the other. They were all really short, but maybe the actual dream was the part about the insomnia.... Wierd... |

I often catch the surreal conversations. It's very hard to remember it when you try to analyze one while aware. If you try to analyze while in that state, everything makes sense (even though it is nonsense) and everything feels perfectly true. If I become aware, I can either wake up, or pretend I didn't notice (and then I can slip back in and "watch" myself ramble). |
