This can often occur when certain feelings are either intentionally or unintentionally repressed, and/or when you are undergoing life events and circumstances that you are trying to avoid thinking about. The lack of recognition over a period of time becomes a sort of "feedback loop", and the building intensity is progressively ignored until it becomes so intense that it manifests in such vivid dreams. It may not even be a "negative" experience you are trying to avoid. For example, very vivid dreams of forgetfulness or confusion or even anxiety can appear if a person is extremely focused on generating lucid dreams. The mind responds by continuously amplifying the experience in the face of continuous ignorance of the dream state. Eventually it will work itself out and the predominance of signs will overcome the tendency of the mind to ignore them. But as you say, it may become very vivid and almost "anti-lucid" before a substantial breakthrough occurs. It is a bit similar to the saying "it is darkest before the light" - which is not always the case but certainly does happen.

Although, very vivid dreams are also possible if you are going through something troubling in your life, but are not present enough with the experience to accept its effects on your mind. For example, if a loved one dies or leaves you and you are trying to ignore the depression or sadness, it may manifest in a very vivid dream of those feelings. This tends to happen because the dream state is where the mind can be alone with itself and has no distraction from the outer physical world. So, these very vivid dreams are the mind basically saying to itself "hey! listen up! this is important to me." The reason it has to talk to itself is because we have both a consciousness and an unconsciousness. Sometimes the mind will shrink its consciousness and try to make things unconscious when they are painful or uncomfortable. It will try to avoid them in this way. But this can cause problems in the long run, so the deeper and wiser part of the mind has to get involved and tries to resolve it by bringing these things back into consciousness.

I think you have a mentally problem . I mean you take tension a lot and think very much this is the reason of your dreams. Just cool your mind and watch a good movie before going to the bed and think about good people and relaxed yourself . i hope your problem will solve.

For me, every part of my body is a metaphor with some psychological meaning. Occasionally teeth fall out, in correspondence with something rotting in my character as it pertains to....the part of my mind that does with thought like teeth do with food. I don't have a better word for this off hand.

Personally I think alcohol is poison, but obviously I'm in a fairly small minority with that. I hate the way it feels in other people, and I hate hint of what I see around their eyes, like its slowly, over a long period of time, increasing its control. They think they'll be free of it at death, but I don't think it works that way. I guess a lot of people have to drink, for a while its an unavoidable part of who they are, but it still makes me happy when people are able to make a choice to put it behind them.
