I use to experience that a lot when I was younger. Not so much anymore though. I hate the feeling though |
|
hate when that happens, cause it does in those moments you are supposed t be fast, but for some reason this "gravity effect" slows you down. The worst part is when suddenly it finishes and you crash XD |
|
I have dreams where I can't walk/run and whenever try to walk/run, I fall. I remember getting so frustrated because this was a reoccurring dream. Thank God they don't happen anymore. |
|
Ahh I have this all the time! It's a regular dreamsign for me. |

wading through water is a great way to describe mine, most of the time i resort to pulling myself along the ground with my arms because it seems quicker... but it never occurs to me that i'm dreaming |
|
I think I have been running slow in nightmares when I was young. As of recently, I cannot recall that happening. But I have had occasions in dreams where I have been struck by bad balance, constantly falling down on the ground as I walk/run and having a difficult time making other simple bodily movements. |
|
Yeah, the sensation of weighted limbs is fairly common in dreams. I think it has something to do with the weight on the physical body's limbs and the fact that the physical body is paralyzed. Those physical sensations can bleed over into the dream, just like sounds, temperature, etc... |
|
I don't even try to run in my dreams anymore, even though I should keep trying the things that seem impossible lest I should create some imaginery dream laws. But every single time I try to run it feels like I'm wading through water (though I do have some scarce memories of not being lucid and resorting to moving on all fours). I just have to fly, it's the only way. |
|
Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
I've had dreams where I'm running and everything goes slow. In moments of distress everything goes slow too. Also when I'm trying to defend myself in a fight. Tripppy. |
|
To be continued . . . . .
A good friend of mine told me years ago, long before i'd heard of lucid dreaming that this commonly happened to him. He told me that when this happened in a dream he would pull out a big pair of scissors and cut out a circle around his feet, allowing him to once again move freely. I guess looking back he was (kind of) actually lucid dreaming! |

Thats what i used to have when younger. I had one where a firework was going to go off in my garage, i tried to run but it was like running underwater. It went off and i woke up. |
|
This is one of my dreamsigns as well. Another variation is where I'm trying to run, but it's as if I'm on moon gravity -- every time I try to push forward off the ground, I float into the air and have to wait until I land to take another running step. It results in my forward progress being very slow. When I go lucid, I just push off the ground with both feet and take huge leaps forward to compensate. |
|
I hate when this happens. Every time it happens i'am usually running from something. It was weird though, last night i had a dream i was running and i lost control and i was going sideways and couldn't really move but then i recovered my control and kept going.That almost never happens. One time i couldn't run but i could swim in the air. |
|
This has only happened to me once that i can remember. I was in a snowy area with some friends and there was a nuclear bomb heading towards us. There was a barrier we were trying to get inside of. We ran toward it, but i was running really slowly and eventually i fell behind. When they got to the barrier door, they opened it, got inside, and closed the door behind them. When the door was shut i finally could run as fast as normal but the bomb hit and i woke up. |
|
It happened several times. I have no idea of why it happens however I found the way to get out of it. Trying to physically move your body often will end in failing to, expecially in dangerous situations (for instance if you're trying to run from a monster or trying to punch someone). In order to move my body I use telekinesis: I just visualize my body moving as I want. Wheter you believe or not in telekinesis you shouldn't have problems developing it during dreams. |
|
i've had that before, usually acompanied by blurry vision, and lack of senses. |
|
Yes! I did last night and it bugs the crap outta me. I think this may be due to sleep paralysis. |
|
DREAM ON
Yes this has happened a few times to me were it feels like you are wading through water, your reaction time is decreased, I would compare it having your legs weighted down making them hard to move. |
|
I had this alot when I was younger, normally when i needed to run. I heard it was something to do with your RL legs. |
