Major Fubar 0 Posted June 23, 2002 I used to have a dream when I was a kid that I'd fallen off a cliff, and all my bones were broken and sticking out from my body...then a pack of dogs would try to gnaw on my bones...nice, huh? I have a lot mote nightmares than pleasant dreams, but mostly I don't remember them in the morning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
timmy 0 Posted June 23, 2002 i hate nightmares, some of mine are so bad, that they are litterally un-imaginable in a consious state. Then theres always the naked at school dreams, or the being banned for cussing out the mods, and posting a picture of a nude girl having sex with a dog dream. Those are rather funny. The best dreams are either flying dreams or sex dreams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warin 0 Posted June 23, 2002 When my wife left me... I didnt sleep for nearly three days, other than an hour or two when I would finally pass out from sheer exhaustion. I went to my doctor, and he gave me some sleeping pills so that i could get rest. I took them for a month. The weird part is that I didnt dream at all for that month. At least, I didnt remember any of those dreams. Two nights after I stopped taking them, I had the weirdest strangest dreams I have ever had. Totally technicolour and also very violent to some extent. Think handgun toting Warin in street to street combat ala 'Enemy at the Gates' Stalingrad. Truly strange Generally I am not too fond of nightmares though.

Aculaud 0 Posted June 23, 2002 I have yet to have an un disturbing dream in one sense or another, so when i say dream, what i really mean is nightmare. Sometimes there are the ones that are really surreal and frightening (think The Cell), and then there are the ones that are disturbing in the sense of terrible things happening in real life. I had one once where i watched i guy shoot someone in the head, point blank with an mp5 on full auto... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ale2999 0 Posted June 23, 2002 My nightmares changed from when I was a kid till now. I dont have many of those but now if it has to be a nightmare, its usually some1 chasing me, and it is asif it is ai that knows in every sec where I am at. But then I pray during the dream, and I either win or the nightmare becomes an happy dream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 0 Posted June 23, 2002 I've been able to control my dreams. Where in the dream I realize its only a dream and I say to myself. Its jst a dream. I can do what I want. Then the dream truley becomes great. I seem to fall a lot in my dreams. And of course not be hurt. But always scary none the less. And a lot of times the dream isnt from 1st person or even my point of view. Sometimes Im just watch events and Im not even there. And once, I died. I actually watched myself become impaled and I switched to another person. Nutty dreams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kegetys 2 Posted June 23, 2002 I havent had nightmares for many, many years... residuum: the the dream "controlling" is called Lucid dreaming and its rather easy to accomplish on purpose, a google search will give you alot of information on it I have "tried" lucid dreaming, its rather cool but, for me at least, it makes me still be tired in the morning.

USSoldier11B 0 Posted June 23, 2002 Uhhhh...I had nightmares about "plotting" enemy positions on acetate overlays on maps at JRTC because I was spend hours per day doing situational templates. 200+ to update every 24 hours was alot of work on three different overlays.

Placebo 29 Posted June 23, 2002 I've never had a nightmare in my life, not one that I recall anyways I've always found controlling dreams very easy, you just go to sleep repeating in your mind the thing/situation you want to dream about and most times it will happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WKK Gimbal 0 Posted June 23, 2002 When I do dream, I often have claustrophobic dreams. It's often about trying to avoid or escape something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cybrid 0 Posted June 23, 2002 Anyone here ever had a detailed death dream? I once had a dream that I was a platoon commander fighting a battle in what seemed to be a large american city against an enemy of some kind. So anyway a bullet punches right through my chest from out of on where, and im down on the ground. Before I died I had to tell a soldier where to call the artillery strike because He call for the wrong place. As I lost more and more blood I starded to feel tired and wanting to close my eyes. Eventuly I just drifted off to "sleep." And that was the end of that dream. Is that what death is really like? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grey Fox 0 Posted June 23, 2002 The worst nightmare I can remember was someting outta Vietnam. There is an ambush by a batalion size unit and for some reason I'm company leader for some U.S. unit. From there things go straight to hell with heavy mg fire, 60mm mortars, artilery coming from God knows where, and everyone dying around me. Anyway I call air support but can't since my position is "Danger Close". I keep yelling over the radio until they finally relize my company is gone. In about what felt like 15 min napalm goes everywhere but is useless for the fact it felt like it didn't kill anyting. About what felt like a half hour later everyone is dead and 7 NVA approach me. All I had left was a .45. I shot every single one of them in a gory death by killing them with a headshot or a heart shot. Then all their is, is a deafening errie silence. Then the dream ends.

ran 0 Posted June 23, 2002 in one of the few nightmares i remember , i'm alone in military dress and gear with three other guys i know , we're in the woods trying to escape something , i don't even know what , suddenly a flash , i don't feel anything , i just see the three others dying , then i'm all alone , nobody around me , alone , all alone i think that the nightmares are like the dreams in some way they put some order in the things you've seen durin the day , but they add some little things to the basic dreams , like your most important fears and some traumatic events of your life Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardliner 0 Posted June 23, 2002 Haven't had a dream for a while now (that I can remember) but when I do dream its not really a nightmere. My dreams have no.. emotion or anything like that attached to them. But they have never beed scary or anything like that. Maybe if my dreams made any sense at all. Most of the time when I sleep my mind is blank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I am in the field, I sleep very lightly so I don't have any dreams at all, just blackness. I like reading about other people's dreams, it can be interesting stuff, keep posting them guys. My favorite dreams are the ones where something really bad or very embarassing happens to you and you think it's real. Even in the dream, you think to yourself "it's just a dream", but the bad stuff still happens, then you wake up and feel relief in knowing that your parents really didn't catch you beating off . My nightmares can be really surreal too, I have only about two really demented ones that I can remember. One involved me walking around an old Victorian house in the countryside during the day, the lights were off inside, so all the light that got in was through these white and frilly curtained windows, there was a slight breeze blowing in. I am walking down this narrow and dimly lit hall with many closed doors on either side, with the window behind me. I hear this pounding sound coming from one of the rooms, so I open the door into this big room and there is another door on the floor across the room, with a window above it on the wall. The pounding sound is coming from the door on the floor. As I walk in, some one says to me; "don't go in there". I look to my left and there is this young girl sitting on a high ledge on the wall, just sitting there. The pounding on the door has stopped. Suddenly, a freind of mine comes in the room, he is wearing all black, and opens the door in the floor and goes down the steps. I hear some screaming, and some pounding. My freind runs out screaming and takes off down the hall, I shut the door on the floor, lock it, and take off as well, shutting the door to the room behind me. As I run down the hall, it gets longer and longer, and the pounding gets louder and louder behind me. I finally get to the window at the end of the hall, and prepare to jump out. Then the dream ends. Everything is black for a few minites, then I open my eyes, I have been lying there awake with my eyes closed for a few minutes but didn't even realize it from the fear. Weird eh? I have another one involving an abandoned hospital in the middle of nowhere, but I'll save that for another post. I think this one is long enough. It's interesting how we forget most dreams when we wake up, but can remember some for years after they happen. Most of my regular dreams involve me looking for someone. I have very few sex dreams. blehhh Tyler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cybrid 0 Posted June 23, 2002 I had one dream where I was at an Aerosmith consert with this one girl I know from school. It was outdoors and there were people as far as the eye could see. Distracted by somthing I turn around and when I look back, Steve Tyler pulled the girl up onto the stage and had her pinned down. He starts ripping off her cloths and begines the rape process. I climb onto the stage and kick Steve in the ribs. He rolls onto his back so I grab him around the throat and wined up to punch him In the nose. Just before I hit him the dream is over and I've had this exact same dream twice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Assault (CAN) 1 Posted June 23, 2002 Was Steven Tyler still singing as he was having sex with your girl? If so, what song was it? Aerosmith, lol, punch him harder next time just for me. I hate that band. Tyler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
