Thread: Attacked by unknown entity all RC failed ....

yesterday night i was dreaming and saw some one enter my room. he looked like my brother he had something in his hand. somehow i was thinking he wanted to check if i was asleep so i thought i would fake it. then i opened my eyes and looked to the right of me and like 1 meter away of me i saw some one. i thought wat is my bro doing on my bed? This time i knew it I WAS DREAMING i pinched both nose holes closed my mouth huh? i cant breathe k np. look to the mirror... it lookes normal my hands? normal text sstay the same... so i am not dreaming but i remembered that right of me my bro would proabaly be laughfing at me doign so much reality checks as i turned my head a saw a being behind me on the place were i first ecountered it. it had something shiny in his hand and was looking really angry at me. i thought wtf. then after 5 secs i whispered Brother? then he laughed realy hard and i jumped downstairs took a cigaret waked up my brother and ask him about it. he said he was sleeping all time. i thought i must still be dreaming so i wrote a note in my room and when i woke up the note was lying in my room wat is this???

i am not saying that i got attacked but how could i have hallucionations when i was awake am i sensitive for schizofrenia or wat.

thanks in regard

The attack was propably a dream. The RCs can fail sometimes. Then you woke up and ran downstairs. You wrote the note and fell asleep.

you may be right but after i noticed the being i stepped out of my bed and then ran down and got up and wrote the note. also the note states the same. it could be my memorys of this event arent mirroring wat really happend

Don't worry about strange beings in your dreams. Everything that you encounter in a dream is a product of your own mind. It's not like there are (telepathic?) monsters stalking you in your sleep. As you become more active in dreaming and head towards lucid dreams (at least in my case) you have more blurring between waking an dreaming. For example I was attempting a WBTB and though it didn't work, I had about an hour there were I was slipping back and forth between waking and dreams where the two seemed meshed together, and I couldn't have told you for certain whether I was lying in my bed reminding myself to RC and when I was just dreaming I was in my bed.

But bottom line there's nothing in your dreams that can hurt you, anymore than something in a book your read or movie you see can hurt you. You're watching a television episode in your head, just one that you can sometimes take control and direct.

there's a party in my head and your invited! (joke)

i've had the experience of not being able to tell between the waking world and the dream world at a certain point in my lucid dreams, especially my 4th and 5th one. but once you become more experienced with your lucid dreams, your dream characters will be on the same consciousness level as you. after that point, any weird thing from your dream character is probably coming from your own thoughts if the dream is within that level of lucidity. remember that your mind has the ability to go far deeper than you can comprehend at first.

i've scared myself a numerous times.

Also, don't do a mindless RC. You have to question reality too. Think how you got there or what you were doing. Kind of like the scene in Inception where the chick realizes she's dreaming because she cant remember where she came from. It applies to actual dreaming.

And regardless, RCs CAN and DO fail, not often, but they do, so you just had one of those hard FAs where RCing doesn't do much.

Sounds like Nightmare on Elm street.
