Thread: Who is ''he''?

My experience about lucid dreams and the one about a specific person appearing in my dreams who belongs there.

(English is not my first language, sorry if there is something wrong written, if so let me know)

Many years ago I was interested in the idea of having lucid dreams, maybe when I was 11 or less, I don't remember well. I started researching about them to the point that I tried to have a dream like that.

It was easier than I thought.
I don't remember very well where I got to know it but I remember that ''to have a lucid dream you had to look at your hands'' I don't know if it's the right way to have them but it helped me.

I remember that moment very well. Me trying to look at my hands in the dream, it was as if my body didn't want to. As if someone was holding my head so I wouldn't look... but I still did it.

That was my first lucid dream. I became aware of my ''self'' in the dream. It's like when you became aware of your surroundings when you were a little kid.

Over time I began to have more lucid dreams, but I don't know if you can call them that, I knew I was in a dream but I couldn't do anything...until a few years ago.

I have recurrent nightmares (I know it can be a disorder when it bothers you to some extent).

And having lucid dreams with nightmares, is something that causes me anguish to this day.

A few weeks ago I dreamt about that person again. A someone. I don't know him in reality, but I know him in another dream.


The first time I dreamed about him, it wasn't instantly.

It started as a normal dream, I was in a bar at night I could see multiple things inside the bar, it was like a small fair inside the bar.

I remember wanting to leave the bar but for some strange reason I remember forgetting my phone charger, and the moment I'm thinking that as I set foot out of the bar, that's when I realize.

This is a dream.

Why would I be at this time of night in a bar and forget my charger (I'm not a fan of bars sorry).

i remember the moment when i look at my hands and then around me. this time i'm glad, it's a dream. and it's a lucid dream. because it was at a time when i didn't remember my dreams.

I remember walking up to the bar, sitting on one of the benches, turning to the side and seeing a big guy drinking something and I suddenly said ''this is a dream'' with a smile...he stopped smiling and the bartender stopped cleaning a glass he had in his hand and I turned to the guy to the right of me. This is a dream right?'' the guy looked angry but I felt happy.

Suddenly another man with a big smile came towards us and told him to calm down.

The big guy got up and left, but instead the other man sat down in his place.

I said again contentedly ''this is a dream'' he kept smiling, but he diverted the subject and offered me a drink.
I still remember it well, him with his big smile looking at me and passing me a glass with something blue in it.

I don't really know what happened, it was as if I wasn't thinking, I just took it.

And right then and there I woke up.

That son of a bitch tricked me to get me to wake up (or well that's what I think).

I spent about a week thinking about what happened. it was the first time i talked about it being a dream within the dream. i thought it would end there, but i found it again in my dream a few weeks ago.

I know it's the something, it gives me a feeling.

The last time I saw him was a few weeks ago.

Maybe I've thought about it a lot, about him, since that day, in my dreams I feel someone. I don't care it's a weird feeling.

This time it was a nightmare, you know, the ones where my body wants to wake up but when I have a lucid dream I avoid it.

is it one of those dreams where you fall from a very high place and then you wake up abruptly?

well, i have lived so many lucid dreams that apparently my brain got used to it? i don't know. but if i learned something from that dream, it was not to say that i am in a dream. but i get to think about it when i realize it. so i just enjoy the moment and the sensation.

...

I can't change things, fly or be a millionaire when I have ''lucid dreams'' but I can make what happened different, try it again.

Something like going back to the past. (lol)

i have recurring nightmares. they generate anguish, fear, sadness. i try to change it, to go back but my brain is still determined to continue with the nightmare even if i change it.

The last time I dreamt was just about him there.

I remember the dream well, but I won't go into detail.
The only thing I know is that I was trying to keep the dream going (but in a good way).

I was in a building that was falling and with it, I was falling into the void. my body wanted me to wake up, I know, it's something normal, but I refused, I went back and changed my position so I wouldn't fall... it worked.

the dream continued but the things that made me anxious continued to happen. things that i knew would kill me (in the dream obviously). i didn't want to, if i did one action wrong, i would go back and do something else but that would lead me to something else.

but i moved forward in the dream until i saw it.
people in my dreams rarely have faces, except if they are someone I know. the ones that don't? why they would have them is not relevant to the dream.

But there he was, I looked at him, I was afraid of the dream situation I was in, looking at him filled me with questions.

I rewinded the events, but this time he was there in my arms saying ''in another life''.

What the fuck? haha

Believe it or not I woke up, but I thought about the dream and what happened.

I felt it, like something, like someone.

I haven't dreamed since.

i don't like dreaming. nightmares are the only thing i dream about.. i rarely dream anything that isn't anguish. and that doesn't require me to get up 3 times in the night.

but I hope to have a dream soon...
