Hi all, I've noticed changes in my dreams lately.. I have more memory of sensations, smells, tastes, etc. Very real and powerful senses of them, sometimes persisting when I wake up. The pain though is most disturbing. Something will happen in my dream and when I wake up then I am still in pain, with nothing to explain why I am in pain except the dream itself. I've been stabbed in the eye, for instance, and been struck in my spine. The pain won't feel like other kinds of pain, either. Like for my eye.. it didn't feel the same as when I've slept weird and had the eye pressed against something. Completely different sort of pain. And it hurt so much I covered my other eye to make sure I could see OK. |

Yeah, you can feel pain in your sleep and at times it just, for some odd reason, a form of it carries over every so often [it's happened to me before and yeah, it's a bit scary, but it could be worse, you hypervenhilate the moment you woke up and still feel the pain... that'd be scary]. |
|
So yeah, I didn't know if it was really that common. Seems odd, I guess. Any idea why some dreams carry over pain and some don't? I had one soo bad I was near to tears in pain for a good 1/2 hour when I woke up, and then I've had many where I either feel pain in the dream but not when I wake up, or I am hurt in the dream but I don't feel anything. |

I have no idea why some pain carries over from dreams, and some doesn't, but I know that it happens. I think it might be psychological or something... I once dreamt I got bitten by a centipede and that really hurt when I woke up. I've also had real pain carry over into my dreams. |

The more experienced you become with dreaming the more powerful your senses in your dreams will become Touch, Sigh, Sounds, Heat, Cold, Wind, Pain, Etc. will all become more apparent and obvious then previous dreams you may have had. |

Well I don't know if I am becoming more experienced or what, I came to the forum out of curiousity with dreams but I don't really actively look for this kind of thing to happen, whatever it is.. vivid dreams, lucid dreams, OBEs. they just well.. happen. Anyway the pain.. I guess it takes a few minutes usually but I had an exceptionally upsetting dream and that one had me near tears for awhile. i think it took like 2hrs to go away. but that's because of where the pain was near a sensitive area that I have problems with, and the pain spread on me. Granted it was really bad to begin with too.. the most painful dream I've had really. |

Wow thats really weird to have pain from a dream carry over in your waking life not mention having it last for up to 2 hours. Hmmm I'm at a loss of words I have no explanation for that. |

lily....what was your dream about? Can you pm me if you don't want to tell me here, i may have had a similar dream....even if it doesn't sound possible to you. |

This is odd. When you wake up is it mental or actual physical pain? |
|
DREAM ON
well obviously your brain can produce "phantom" pain, so that's what it is. In my dream the pain didn't carry over to real life, but if it did... |

It's definitely pain I can really feel, like when I got stabbed I felt my eye aching. Often the pain from a dream will be slightly different because it feels kinda tingly. In that dream I had I realized the pain didn't quite feel normal, and I was confused by this. When I woke up the feeling was exactly the same, not quite the same as if something had really happened - but close. |

That happened recently to my friend. He said he could feel some pain but not as much as he would if the dream was real. I don't know why that happens sometimes, because you would think that feeling pain when it would actually be possible for your brain to prevent pain from non-existent events. :p |
