Sorry i think this post may be really long, but theres some dreams& nightmares id really like people's opinions on. Im aware most people will get bored and not read to the end but i dont want to flood the board with lots of topics.

I put the trigger incase there's anything triggers in them.
I keep having nightmares, most nights, not always conventional nightmares, sometimes they are just situations that would be nightmares to me. I remember flashes of them but not everything most of the time but then sometimes I'll have *really* vivid dreams where I remember every detail down to the clothes people are wearing years later.
But even when I have non nightmares they're really confusing.

Most of my nightmares at the moment are like post apocalyptical.

• •Like last night there was something about a racetrack but it was a sci-fi style one where things loop in the air and the people were in like bubble cars and we as team mates had to like squeeze through these tunnels to get to the driver to assist them. Then suddenly there was just war everywhere and everyone was being killed and there were bodies everywhere and I was with some people I knew when I was growing up. We ran through this like shield thing that was blue but see through but the other side was hazy.
  When we got to the other side it was actually underground, and there were lava streams and everything was an off-browny reddish shade.
  I was put in this house and tried to remember I was at number 8 because everyone I knew was in another house at number 12. There were people living at number 8 though. We kept going outside every day and wandering around trying to find people we knew like it was post apocalyptical, but areas of this place kept disappearing. Then when I got home I realised my house number had changed and these people said 'oh yeah it does that, it goes up when something happens in the house'. Then there was this noise as we went in and I found this weird old man in just his pants in the kitchen :/
  Then we were sent to this strange house where we had to pick up things we needed in different rooms but we could only pick up certain things but we didnt know which the right ones were. Then there was this room with lots of food and an old lady cooking and I was trying to remember what food we needed then I got to the lady and had to make a pot pie, but she put onions in it and I noticed it at the time but didn't seem bothered just interested (im allergic to onions) then there was lots of cupcakes and deserts and I picked up a couple but then we were sent over to these shelves and told to pick something and I picked up a couple of green pens for my parents as kind of souvenirs. Then we were sent to a place with old style desks we had in primary where you lift the lid, and there was a baby/child inside each one. Once we opened the lid we had to adopt the child. Suddenly there was an explosion and I was back at 'my' house with all the people I was at the house with and all the babies/children and this little child came up to me with the pens and said she'd saved them for me. But then we were in this attic space reading all these documents trying to prove something to save the world and I found these letters from 1623 someone had sent that had really important information in but people said they were fakes.
  Then I woke up.
  
  • A few nights ago there were ones about going back to where I was at uni and sitting on the beach and waiting for my ex, then seeing these lads at a rock pool and talking to them and we were all talking about our first sexual experiences then someone came and told me I had to go to this club which was inside a gates complex you had to go in through climbing over a spiral staircase gate but inside it was like a holiday camp with little chalets and weird lit up ponds and I suddenly saw an old friend I've lost touch with moving into one of them so I went to help him. But then he said we should go back to the beach and we drove around all these places I'd never been before but I was acting like I knew them.
  
  •I have a lot of dreams about going into schools and all of the staff totally blanking me and the parents shouting abuse at me.
  
  •Then a couple of weeks ago I was trying to remember my PIN number at an ATM but I couldn't remember it then a friend walked me through a really rough area of a city I don't know, then took me to a bus stop and this bloke told me it was where someone had been murdered the week before and my friend said I know that's why I brought you here, then this bloke over the street started shouting at someone and waving a gun around and so I grabbed my friend and ducked behind the busstop and we ran across this field and went into a house but there were just dead bodies everywhere and blood all over the place :/ then we were trying to get out of the house but we couldn't find a way out.
  
  •In another I was at a concert which I'd been to before, well I was watching it on tv and then suddenly was there. It was in an auditorium and rather quiet which is weird because the band plays arenas. I've been there before in dreams for the band's concerts too which is really weird. I think I've dreamt of that concert before too although it wasn't one they have really done. :/ anyway as they left one member stopped near where I was so I went over & was talking to him & listening to him & trying to think of none 'stalker fan' questions. Then I asked what he most wanted to do at a solo concert he couldn't do in the band& he said get out in the crowd, not on those bollocks things bands always use but actually walk in the crowd. There were some other things that I can't remember, then I had some paper in my pocket and he was signing some things so I asked for an autograph but he started writing down really weird things, he filled the page with random sections of notes and things. Kind of like notes on conversations that had been had and wrote the name Charlotte down too (i dont know any charlottes) Then we sat a while longer and it was only me& him and these people who he was waiting for& we were sat on the backs of the chairs& he got out a packet of fags& I was like ok I know this is really cheeky but I'm really gasping could I nick one? Or I have like 60p? And he looked at me&said that depends if you have I.d. So I went through my bag& found it& he couldnt find my dob on my driving license so i was trying to point it out& he was like look dont you just like have a credit card or something? but i pointed at my dob & he looked at it then looked at me and went hmm…and I said yeah people say I look younger than I am & he said no I was thinking you looked older… then this lass he was waiting for was like 'its time to go' so he went & the whole place suddenly went pitch black. When I got out I went to the toilets & he was in the corridor and the woman he was with was heading into the men's loos & he was too. I went in the ladies but it was a bar :/ then outside there were tickets for a different band free in these capsules like the ones you get in those machines that you twist the knob for. And everyone was pissed at me for making them stay late at the show. But it was a weird mix of people from school & uni& since then etc… we were in a massive multistory carpark arguing over whose car to use and then someone said if we didn't use theirs we weren't going anywhere so we all crammed in their car. Then suddenly there was a canoe in the car& An old toxic friend was there & saying the band member only wrote down what she told him to say. And then we turned on the radio and it was a really weird mix of songs and they kept updating on these traffic jams but we were where they were meant to be but there weren't any. Then suddenly it was an aunt of mine driving the car and we were going to try and find lavender fields. There was other stuff as well but that's the basics…
  
  •At a concert and going over a bridge outside and there were loads of pushchairs going the other way and the ticket office was under a bridge which I've seen in another dream where I was camping out for tickets overnight. We walked around looking for the band and these bouncers told us to go in a side door which was really weird then suddenly I was on my own and it was like a town hall with weird curtains up and then I was stood up on one side but someone told me to go and sit in a seat on one side near the front so I did and this support act was behind me but they were doing like circus tricks and the like and kept saying they'd get the band to come out and I was like no no it's ok really I don't want you to get in trouble.
  
  •Another arena one I was at an arena watching the band from really far back then I was told to go to a certain hotel to see them so I went but I ended up in the hotel and kept getting confused in the lift and these lifts were going for miles across the city then back to the hotel just to go up a few floors. Then I was sat in the bar having a drink with a little old lady and the boss asked me to follow him so I went outside and the coach for the band was there and he told me to get on so I did but I was supposed to do one of those city tour talks in the microphone but I didn't know the city and we kept going past a market.
  
  •Being in a train station waiting for futuristic trains that looked like rollercoasters but not knowing which one I needed
  
  •Going through lots of wards at hospitals looking for people I knew.
  
  •Being sent to a&e by my GP but then not knowing why I was there and having blood tests then going to a local pub.
  
  •Being lost in hotels especially in lifts.
  
  •Being at uni but being in a room that slept lots of people. I was seeing this guy and his ex girlfriend showed up and started trashing all of his stuff but then suddenly we were at a hotel and she was crying and I was trying to help her then we were going on a student night out because we just got our student cards and I was trying to find something to wear and so makeup but i couldnt do it so ut took me ages, then the dress was damaged so I had to change, then I was trying to change my makeup and someone came in and said they'd found a special plant in the soil under my bed and under all of our mattresses there was like flower beds, I tried to pot up this plant but could only find sand and these people came in and said it wouldn't survive and it was dying infront of my eyes but I couldn't save it, then these blokes started shouting outside so I looked out the window and they were on an old path I remember from uni so I went down to talk to them a d they said I had to go register so I went into this office building that was all flurescent lights and had to wait and I asked if there was any post but they wouldn't tell me.
  
  •I'm often at uni in dreams having forgotten an assignment and scared they're going to find out. And I'm often in this block of student flats I've never seen in real life but know inside out in my dream. Whenever I'm there I've lost my flat key but someone lets me in and there's massive metal spiral staircases that are rusty and the flats have a communal lounge at the end of a corridor on the right and most of the time I don't know my flat mates.
  
  • I'm often at 'my' house in the dream but often don't have house keys or have forgotten/lost them
  
  •I usually have really twisted epic dreams though where I can end up in 4 or 5 places in one dream with different agendas at each place but nothing ever gets done.
  
  •And I have a recurrent theme of not being able to pack enough in the time I have. Like either I'm coming home from uni or going on holiday or coming home from holiday and I'm trying to pack but there's too much stuff. The other recurrent I've already mentioned, that I forgot an assignment at uni. Sometimes I'm still there and realise its due in the next week but I havent started it sometimes its the next year and I remember I never submitted it but noone has said anything sometimes it's now when I realise and I'm scared someone is going to realise and expose me as a fraud.
  
  •I was once watching friends wade out into the sea at night and I had to stay on the beach and watch the bags.
  
  •I was protecting my sister and nephew from her husband who was trying to kill us all and his behind a sofa and he shot me.
  
  •I often get shot in dreams, it's like I know how it feels to get shot. I've died in dreams too, gone into this dark abyss which is usually calm but scary and I always wake myself up in shock at those.
  

Sorry I know that's a lot, it's like when I started typing I just couldn't stop all these images kept flooding back to me. Some of these dreams are months or years old.

I just, I dunno I just wondered if anyone had any idea what any of this means? I don't know if anyone will even read this far but I guess at least you will have had a laugh at my screwed up brain.

But yes if anyone can help me figure out what any of this means??

Ok, of those these are this week's:

•Like last night there was something about a racetrack but it was a sci-fi style one where things loop in the air and the people were in like bubble cars and we as team mates had to like squeeze through these tunnels to get to the driver to assist them.

To much going on inside you. To much noise. This is destracting you from your feelings. How did you Feel in these dreams? What are your Feelings? Dreams are all about feelings.

[avlady]

are you on any meds? These dreams could be side effects of meds, or you need some type of sleep meds maybe even valium. I have sleep apnea, and before i got my machine to sleep with i had those kind of dreams, still do but not as bad.

[Morgansangel]

Thunderbow I have every kind of emotion during dreams, my emotions are relevant to the things that are happening. If its scary I'm scared, if its anger inducing I'm angry etc :/

Avlady yeah I'm on a few meds, but these dreams have gone on since before I took meds in my teens. I've tried all sorts of sleep meds and techniques but none of them work and really find it hard to sleep. I've got delayed sleep phase at the moment but even so I'm often scared to sleep because of nightmares. The images stay in my head for weeks and just flash into my brain at random times and I have no control over it

[Thunder Bow]

Be sure to share what/how you felt during the dream that you are posting.

[Morgansangel]

I'm not sure I know how to because I just feel 'normal' unless something obviously scary happens when I'm scared etc and wouldn't that be obvious by the fact it's a scary thing happening? I mean if it was scary but I was laughing I'd say that, but most of the time my emotion is relevant to the situation or just 'normal'

[Thunder Bow]

Just express how you felt in the dream. All feelings are Normal.
