Honestly, what do you think is going to happen? |

A couple times I have woken up from dreams and felt like I was electrocuted. So I'm planning to stick a fork in a electrical socket, or get struck by lightning in a lucid dream to see if it produces any effects after waking up. Has anyone tried this before? Would anyone like to help me test it out? |

Well I had one dream where I was being shown a picture of the inside of my head, and there a was a switch. And there was some DC talking, and he ended up flipping this switch. In my dream I felt like I got zapped really good, and this wakes me up. When I woke up, I still felt the same way as in the dream, tons of pins and needles in my head and it feels like my skin is burning. I couldn't move my body for like 10 seconds after waking, but my head is like humming for a good 15 minutes. So I'm trying to recreate that, to find out what extent dreams can effect us. |

Ahh, yeah I guess that it would be classified as hypnagogia. I'm looking to find out if getting shocked in a dream would make it feel like you got shocked after you wake up. |

I believe dreams can trigger the release of endorphins or other brain chemicals... so I suspect the body responds sometimes in a very real way to what we dream. |
