Brain Crashes.

[Onforty]

Yes it sounds weird, and it is weird. But i am sometimes having brain crashes. My experience is: Sometimes when i have vivid or lucid dreams, i am having HARD pain bursts inside of my head. Its like your brain lights on fire and electrical shocks TOGETHER! Symptoms of brain crash: Blackness, then suddenly CRAPLOADS of dark toned colours Pain in form of: Electrical shocks and burns Effects: Headache Dream-messup False awakenings (Especialy when you want to get out of the pain) Adrenaline rushes (When awake) Occurs when: In-dream stress Fear Excessive desires to end a dream Handling waking in a explicit way. Just like WIndows 98 fatal errors But now i ask you ladies and gentlemens: Have you experienced this before?

I think you are having a super Lucid - when you become aware that you literally control everything in the dream; not just what happens in the dream, but literally everything, including colours, textures, smells, senarios, and pretty much everything else.

Hmmm, interesting... I havn't experienced EXACTLY what you described but I have too gotten the headaches, fatigue, blurriness, FAs blackouts while in a lucid dream... Its happened in 3 lucids I had, I get complete control and my awareness is very high then the headache kicks in along with the FAs, blackouts etc... I can usually re enter the dream and continue to be lucid but sometimes the pain in my head is very intense! When I awake I will still have the headache.....does this sound like the same? I thought I experienced the headaches because IRL I had a headache, but maybe its vice versa.. Any more thoughts on this? It seems that Onforty's experience is a lot more intense but I'm curious if anyone else has had similar experiences... [Sorry I didn't help but hopefully someone has some insight]

You get excited and begins typing something then CRASH?
