No matter what I dream, it never is a nightmare. I had dreams with a platypus trying to bite my ear off, then I kept it as a pet to one where the color scheme is black, white, and neon green and I shoved a giant acid-tipped Q-tip through my leg so my dead family wouldn't kill me. Don't ask.
My favorite part of life is dreaming. The only problem is that I can't fall asleep. I'd lay in bed for hours. Not tired. At 6:30 in the morning. Of course I get off around five.
Any tips to fall asleep earlier so I can dream more without waking up at 3 in the afternoon and get yelled at by my mom?

Ask your mum to yell at you at 6AM, better still, ask her to pour a bucket of water on you when you go to sleep in the morning! If you sleep all day you dont need any sleep at night.
Seriously there were some case studies with children who would not go to sleep at night and the medics found that they sleept in the daytime. The remedy was to stop them going to sleep during the day! After a week of careful monitoring and waking them up every time they went to sleep in daytime, they slept OK at night.

My son has trouble alot like that. What he does is stays up all day, then all night, then all the next day. He goes outside and does some physical activity, then when night falls, he gets a warm bath and goes to bed, after telling me what time to wake him the next morning. I wake him up ( not always easy after that amount of time awake) then he is on a pretty good schedule for a while.
Hope that helped.
