Do dogs know if you've had a nightmare?
Last night I had an awful dream about a lot of blood, rape, and murder. When I woke up, my dog immediately started cuddling with me and licking my face. So I started thinking... Did he somehow know I had a nightmare? It sure seemed like he did.
What are some of your bad dreams/nightmares?
My worse nightmares : First: I was in a small movie theatre. The room and chairs were all in red. Suddenly, the walls started to cave in, leaving only the white screen in front of me untouched (nothing was displayed then). When I came closer to the screen, a huge devil face appeared, and started to walk out of it (something like 3d effect). When it opened mouth, I knew it is going to say something, and was so afraid that I started screaming loud enough to jam the monster. And so I was screaming for like a minute or two, seeing that the face is saying something (something sinister I am sure) before I finally woke up. Second: I was driving a car with my dad, when we spotted alienship in the field. We drove closer and saw military forces shooting at purple-glowing worms spreading out of the craft. I was scared and told quickly my dad to drive away asap, but when I saw two kids running towards us, and 2-3 monsters chasing them, despite my fear, I jumped out of it, grabbed a knife or sword and started to fight the monsters, letting the children to run away to safety. While slashing with that weapon, I was suddenly surrounded by hordes of those monsters, but I only grabbed another sword and dual-wieliding started to fight my way through. The blood was basically everywhere, and I was scared to death, but I knew what I have to do, I knew I can't give up cause I will be killed. The dream ended when I stopped at a monster that had the face of the devil (the same one from the dream above). I stood there and look It straight into eyes, and It looked into mine, having a nasty, sinister smile. Then I finally woke up. I had also one more dream with that face. SImply, the face just appear in front of me, inches away, and started to scream very loud and scary (something like the screamers found around the internet). I was paralyzed that I could only look at it and hear it. Finally, after few moments, I was able to wake up. ( The order of appearance was: first with theatre, second with the scream, third with alien craft and monsters). Hope it helped. best luck
Do you ever have bad dreams that aren’t nightmares?
I do. I have dreams where nothing particularly scary happens, but I wake up with a bad feeling or a sour taste in my mouth.I had such a dream a few days ago.I was in a pool with a group of friends. I was jokingly flirting with a friend of mine, who seemed to be flirting back in such a way that I assumed he was in on it. We splashed water at each other, he touched my arm, he came from underneath me and tried to scare me, all kinds of things.I stopped the flirting and he got upset, getting out of the pool and making as if he was going to leave.I sent a friend after him to ask, since I thought he was upset at me and didn’t to rub him the wrong way.He told her that he meant the flirting and he genuinely had feelings for me. He looked heartbroken as he walked away and I woke up with such a bitter feeling of guilt.It was just strange and made me feel bad.
Can oxycodone cause nightmares?
Yes, it can. The doctor prescribed Oxycodone for me after I had my gallbladder removed in July 2016. I thought it may be a good thing, but it was HORRIBLE. I had nightmares that my Mama who had passed away in September 2012 was always yelling at me. It made me feel like she was haunting my house (she had lived here while alive, too). When I stopped taking it cold turkey, the nightmares continued and then they started to get better, but I still had nightmares. One was where a friend’s husband hated me (and he doesn’t hate me).This drug is AWFUL. I would cry for no reason, not knowing why I was crying. I had to take a semester off from grad school because side effects from it and from withdrawal and stopping cold turkey were so bad. I could hardly stand to do anything. It was like living in a bubble. None of the world felt real and I felt like I was where people could see me and interact with me, but I wasn’t part of the world. It was strange and it is not a feeling I’d ever wish on anybody.I NEVER want to take this drug or related drugs again!
What is the worst nightmare you've ever had, and on waking up you thanked God it was just a bad dream?
I was at a dinner party with a bunch of people who I didn't know. This woman suddenly stands up and starts saying how nobody here really loves or cares about her, and the she begins to scream and cry. She grabs this axe, (I don't know where it came from, but it was there somehow) and just starts hitting/chopping people up. For some reason everyone was sitting still and letting her swing at them, but yet still screaming in horror as she cut off arms, fingers, or even into people's faces. I was crying and holding the girl next to me, as she was about 10 or 11, and just as scared as I was. Suddenly the women comes to us. I begged to God to let me live, to let me go home, see my family and boyfriend one last time. Then I use my body to cover the little girl, but for some reason it doesn't help. I can't look up but I hear a loud thump, and the little girl goes limp. I know, and I don't want to look at her. I'm too terrified, but I feel warm wetness drip down my arms and then suddenly feel a burning sensation on the back of my neck, followed by a rush of warmth down my back. Finally I look up. Her head is gone, cut clean off. I immediately drop her body and get up. Suddenly I feel cold and dizzy but am still able to walk myself out. I dial 911, but I can't speak, I just stare at my phone in shock. I hear sirens come from down the road. Then I dial my Boyfriend's number. He picks up and starts talking like it's any normal day, but I'm shaking, terrified, and cold. I tell him I love him, and that I don't think I'm coming home. The paramedics then pull up, and I end the call. I walk over to them, and they just roll their eyes at me. (They probably think that it was a false alarm). I turn around, lift my hair up, tilt my head down and show them the back of my neck. They start gagging, and then they grab me and strap me down onto the bed thing in the back of the truck. I slowly fade in and out while I listen to them talk. "Sliced clean through the spinal cord." "Not going to be able to walk." "Most likely going to die." Then it all went away and there was no pain anymore and I woke up.Honestly I'm still sobbing over it, and still terrified. I don't think I'll ever be able to forget this one.
I keep having awful Nightmares of my childhood home.?
I've only lived in two homes my whole life (I'm 18) and when I was 10 my parents got divorced and my dad and i moved into a smaller house. But ever since I was 14 I've been have horrible nightmares about my old house, so bad that I can't even think of that house without cringing. The weird thing is that i loved that house so much up until i started having those dreams. Nothing really bad happened there except a few family animals died there but that's normal. My parents never fought in front of me, so I'm not traumatized by the divorce at all. Some of the awful dreams had been a shooting while my friends were over and I was held hostage The moon exploding while I was standing outside. The moon crashing to earth while I was out that house Post apocalypse refugee in that house Having to jump out a two story window in order for me not to get stabbed by a robber countless dreams of being robbed, or attacked by robbers my father dying in an explosion resulting in our garage burning down the worst one my house was being haunted by demons and evil spirits and I went into my parents room and there was literally a portal to hell where their bed used to be. and last night was the longest/most life like and it was our house being haunted and ghosts throwing me and my friend around and throwing knifes and stuff at me. i just what to know what this may mean, associating my old house with awful thoughts. I've been going through the internet looking at meanings and stuff but not one that helps me specifically. So if anyone has any ideas let me know!
Should I tell my boyfriend that I had a terrible nightmare of him raping me although I was crying and begging him not to (I'm virgin and he has always been caring and good to me)?
I wouldn’t.You probably had this dream based on some fear or insecurity you have. The fact that you’re a virgin and us women are often told that guys only want one thing (which is a lie) probably motivated a subconscious fear of the whole situation. So it isn’t something he needs to do or fix.However, that doesn’t mean you have to ignore this fear completely. If you are genuinely concerned about the whole sex situation then you can have this discussion with him. If he is a good guy like you say then maybe hearing him tell you that he’s comfortable waiting and things like that will put your mind at ease.Either way, sharing this isn’t necessary and sharing the specifics — the rape — will probably just hurt him. No one wants to hear their partner talk about such awful things, dream or not.
I had the worst nightmare last night will it come true?
Never.Ninety nine percent of my nightmares have never come true.I am sure the same holds good for you and others as well.Most of us are not in sync with reality.We exaggerate.We fail to distinguish between minor and major things.And we end up wasting our time and energy on frivolous matters.Nightmares bother you because you leave important things unattended.It is this gap that haunts you.And the only way life can remind you about these is by creating nightmares.See what best you can do to resolve your problems.Remember, you are bigger than your problems.You can find a solution for each one of them.But you can take your time.There may be a sense of urgency but there is no hurry.Enjoy the process.Do your best and leave the rest to existence.The more relaxed your are, better will be your capability to meet and deal with life.And accept life in its totality.If it offers joy,it offers sorrow too.And if consists of sweet dreams,it harbors nightmares also.
