Worst Nightmare Ever

[blas]

I've had nightmares ever since working night shift.

This time of year, when it gets darker earlier, I make sure to set my alarm for whenever it starts to get dark, and get up quick to turn on the lamp in the livingroom.

I don't know if I want to blame it all on the shift I work, it could also be my love-hate of scary movies. I always have dreams of zombies/vampires like the ones in 30 Days Of Night.

Not too long ago, I had a dream that a car pulled up to my parents' house, for some reason I was at my parents' house, and they needed help or something, and I was outside washing my car.....I went inside and they were those 30 Days Of Night people and they had slaughtered my entire family.

Yes, I woke up sweating from head to toe with my heart just racing. I woke up right around 5-6 pm. The next few hours, I did not sleep at all.

I get sleep paralysis if I take B Complex tablets (I'm fine if it's just folate or B12) which involve a different dream each night of being naked and tortured to death. Each dream repeats 5-6 times each night, with me only waking after I die in the dream, and waking feeling the residual pain from the dream. The last one contained being cut with glass dipped in acid, then having fire ants dropped onto me.

The dream that topped the two weeks of sleep paralysis?

My husband was driving along a country road in an area we'd never been in before. We were in a station wagon, I was sitting in the back with the girls, enjoying the lovely drive on a nice sunny day. I suddenly see smoke in the distance, everything quickly becomes hazy and we realise the bushfire is at the end of the street we're on. Rugz tries to turn the car around, we slide on the gravel and the car stalls. He starts swearing, I know we're going to die because he can't get the car started. I yell at him to stop swearing, tell the girls he loves them and try again. The fire is coming for us, the girls are crying, I tell my family that I love them and start praying that it will be over with quickly and that the girls won't feel any pain...
I woke up mid-prayer, my heart was pounding and I started crying with relief. I closed my eyes and was surrounded by flames once more. I snapped awake and stayed that way for the rest of the night.

I had recurring nightmares in my teens about nuclear war. the dream would start off fine then all of a sudder everything would kind of freeze and slow down and then the bomb would detonate. In my dream I would die from the blast if I didnt hold my breath, so I would hold my breathe in the dream until the blast ended. Turned out I actually stopped breathing for real. My mum checked on me one night and had to shake me awake to start me breathing again.

Eventually the nightmares stopped (thank god)

I have also had episodes where I think I've woken up but cant move. I can go thru 5 or 6 "wake ups" before I actually do.

I have had only one dream I remember, and I'm not sure it was a dream... it was just me wandering around the corner of a greenhouse that wasn't there in waking life; when I was like 5 or 6.
I don't dream unless I wake up, and fall back asleep thinking about something, and even then, it's just the stuff I was thinking about and I'm partially if not entirely in control of it until my brain completely shuts off.

My nightmares always used to involve real situations rather than monsters, weirdly enough. Even the ones where I was chased; I was always chased by skeletons rather than monsters.

I had a dream not long ago wherein I drowned a man by holding his head down in a crockpot of chili. It didn't bother me until the next day when I got to thinking about it, and realized that would be a truly horrible way to go.

I have a short list of people who would deserve it .
Ouch, it would be painful , especially if you inhaled.

Did he deserve it?

When I was young, I once dreamt that I was floating near the ceiling of my bedroom... Once I saw my body in bed sleeping, it's like I was sucked back into my body and I woke up with a jump.

Dreaming of an out of body experience.

Fascinating.

Yeah... it would be a criminal waste of good chilli.

Dreaming of an out of body experience.

I've done that twice, that I can recall.

And one of those times I was being pulled out. I hadn't been living at that place for very long, but I warded the room after that.

^-.-^

Did he deserve it?

If I remember the dream correctly, he'd tricked me into having sex with his younger brother, who turned out to be just a bit too young, and the reason I was killing him was because my entire life from that point on was ruined. As I recall, their father was also after me to try to kill me for fucking his underage son.

I guess you could call it a cerebral nightmare, or a decent plot for a novel.

[Mikkel]

my entire life from that point on was ruined.

Well then, he deserved it.

You certainly have nightmares many writers would kill for (hopefully not in chilli, though).

I can't remember the worst nightmare, but I do remember one where I was running up some stairs too quickly, and tripped and fell into my bed as I woke up.

My worst dream experiences are when I have amazing dreams and then I wake up and they're not real.

I almost never have the same nightmare twice, but they usually all involve tornadoes. Its always something about a great day, things couldn't be better, and then being out with my family and suddenly seeing a tornado (or several) off in the distance. I look around to warn my husband and tell him to grab the kids and get to safety, and they're gone. I'm all by myself, with a tornado on the way, and I never can find anyplace safe to hide. Every building has something else that will kill me horrifically.

One vivid nightmare recently, I actually looked up, saw the tornados, and said "Fudge, its another nightmare. Off to not find anyplace safe to hide, and to die being torn to bits!" Woke up right after I said that....and then found out for some reason I had punched my husband in my sleep. Not sure why....maybe I was ticked he ran off, lol.
