Murder- Emotional reflection or expression?

[Jimmehboi]

Hey everyone, since the start of this very wonderful month, I have committed a scary grand total of 3 murders in my dreams. I've only slept TWICE this month!!! I've thought about it being very disturbing situation as I have NEVER recalled myself killing any human. Then you might suggest, the people you killed must be people you have aqquired a loathing for. Two of them are these two lads who I probably hate more than anyone else I know, let's call them- Steve and John, but the other one, (who's face I beat in until he died ) was a nice guy who I have nothing against! We'll call him Tom, he has absolutely no connection with the other two I dislike, most likely he will hate them too. The first one, was me and my friend Danny walking through this abandoned hospital we sometimes explore (it's a huge 3.4 acres) as we were leaving, strangely Tom was standing at the doorway with Steve. Me and Danny got mad that they had broke into OUR place , and we killed them both with our hands The one I hate, is a complete d***head (Steve)... His best mate is the other one I hate (John), to almost everyone, they are both considered to have no place in society as they are scum. A while ago, both of them tried to get my current girlfriend drunk enough to take advantage of, along with some of her friends. The third one occured last night, when the other one (John) grabbed me from behind for some reason, and I tried to punch him in the face behind me, but my punches were as weak as hell... This is when I realised and turned lucid, I used someone's technique I heard about here a while ago, of imagining your fists leaving your body and instantly connecting with the target's face. After I punched him until he was dazed I ripped open his legs and pulled off his skin until he bled to death... In all of my dreams... I have never done something like this before. When I think about the anger I had with the guy I think is great (Tom), it makes me wonder how I hated him enough to kill him then, yet I don't mind him in real life, I havn't even spoken to him in a long time. Is there something about Tom that I subconciously feel aggressive towards? Now I am beginning to think, is murdering someone in a dream:- Totally dependant on how you feel about them? (an emotional reflection) An manifestation of anger/jealously/hate/etc through taking it out on an innocent person? (expression) Both of the above points can be equally considered? (both) A highly intricate map of unconcious emotions and recently experienced concious situations or something else? (other) Does anybody else want to share their experiences with murder? (Dream-orientated please, I suggest you go to a confession box if you have recently committed a concious murder ) Thanks, Jim.

LMAO! they are both complete scum... you wouldnt touch either of them with a 10ft pole, they both took up smoking a while ago to boost their rep, they got nowhere, the hard guys just use them to get cigs and they think they're popular LOL You're idea is great, but neither of them "pick" on me I'm not a little b****, when they ever say anything to me I either ignore them or just threaten them, I can't be bothered starting anything with them, I really don't wanna waste time being involved with them. They smell... literally. Although, if they ever try anything like that now that she's with me. i seriously wont waste time tying them up, I think id just do what my dream told me to.

Haha, your dreams are cool. I envy you.

well...this one time i wasn't dreaming and...just joking!that was kinda creepy...but yeah lots of people have dreams about murdering people they don't like and some times people they like or have just met so they don't even know if they hate them or not...our dreams are pretty much random unless it was lucid then...i can't help you.

I bet it felt good, aye? And that's it, if you hadn't done it (in the dream) you would never get the anger out, well you didn't get it all out ofcourse, but some. If you hadn't done it, you would never stop building up even more anger, which would mean that in the end, you would either go crazy or act it out in real life. It's like hitting a bag, playing a violent video game when angry, stuff like that. When I'm angry, I need to do something relaxing, and if I'm very angry, I need to do something relaxing which is either yelling and snapping at people, or hitting something. Which brings up why I think big pillows should be spread around big crowdy places. Somewhy, big crowds makes me annoyed, irratated, fustrated and angry, very fast. I've several times simply stopped up and hit a wall. Usually that follows up a "Woah," feeling. As in "Woah, I'm happy I did that" It's something you need to do, try comparing it to a kid that was tought(sp?) to NEVER cry, complain or maybe even talk. Actually, make that comparing it to a kind that was tought(sp?) to never cry.

i have only killed one person in an LD that wasn't trying to hurt me first. i had a non-lucid where this killer was trying to hurt me and for some reason i had to stab a golden retriever to let me leave me alone. so i did it and felt horrible. it was kind of like I Am Legend. then i had a lucid dream after that and i remembered him. so i tried to summon him and it didn't work. then i grabbed the collar of the next person i saw and he just died at my touch. he later physically turned into the bad guy. then all the DCs and i defiled his body by somehow pouring something in a bowl. i am not sure how that made any sense but it made me feel better. whenever i want to fight in a dream and no one is around all i can find are my friends and i can't bring myself to just start killing them. im not trying to sound morally good if it seems that way. i voted expression in the poll. i needed to express my hate for that guy who made me kill a dog.

This may sound sick, but I think people just have the innate desire to kill. Obviously it's extremely inconsiderate to that person! But why do we watch movies where dozens of people are being murdered, or play video games that involve sniping some virtual guys' head off? Killing (but not real killing, obviously) is a form of expression.
