Time dilation in a dream to my understanding is extremely hard to accomplish to make it feel like a week or so. I am not even 100% if its real but maybe someone can fill me in on that since i know little about dream time dialation. :)
Imagine this situation, someone has a dream where they felt they lived in for 2 mins but the dream only took 1 min in real life. For this to be possible the brain would have to be simulating an entire dream scene twice as fast as it would normaly, I doubt that the brain even has the ability to process this information so I'm guessing that if someone manages to dilate a dream the quality and senses would be reduced.Quote:

Personally I find this the more believable option, look at how our brains naturally create dreams for example, the subconscious (creative, random side) throughs memories at us in our dreams, the slight logical part of our brain tries to link all these random images together.
