Dreams
I asked this on my Facebook last week and was surprised by the few answers I got! I wanted to ask a bigger group of people, with hopefully more results! (Also Facebook doesn’t let you do polls on your personal timeline )
This all came up because I told my husband about a particularly memorable dream I had had, and he thought it was SUPER weird that I wasn’t “me” in my dream. I was in a different body. Collyn has never experienced that!
So I’m just wondering, do you always dream as yourself? Or are you other people/characters?
I’m a mix type, but I’m almost never myself.
Also, another fun thing that came up is dreaming in First vs Third person! I do both

Re: Dreams
I'm always myself and it's a mix of 1st or 3rd person. On the 3rd person dreams it's always a nightmare or something stupid, and I'm raging at myself going, "Why would you do that!?"

Re: Dreams
That’s super cool you noticed a pattern with the 1st/3rd person! I’ll have to pay attention and see if it’s similar for me!Fanta Arcadia wrote: ↑4 years ago I'm always myself and it's a mix of 1st or 3rd person.

Re: Dreams
I am always myself in my dreams but almost everyone else in my dreams is always strangers. In my dreams I know them very well but in real life I have never seen them before. Sometimes they will be speaking another language that in real life I don't know but in my dream I understand them and can also speak the same language. I always think this is weird.

Re: Dreams
I am always myself in 1st person, though sometimes I will see myself in a mirror in my dream. But I too have that thing where I act super dumb when I'm in nightmares. For example, I once had a nightmare that someone was floating outside my 2nd floor room (?!) with eyes blaring red and I started to shout at him and bang on the window telling him to go away, and then of course he decided to float through the window into the room and attack me.Fanta Arcadia wrote: ↑4 years ago I'm always myself and it's a mix of 1st or 3rd person.

I am fairly lucky though in that I have yet to experience the worst part of a nightmare, I always wake up right before the worst part. I thought it was the same for everyone but upon further googling it seems that's not the case and most people experience the bad parts too.
Also, I am lucky that I've never had this either but has anyone ever experienced sleep paralysis? My flat mate experienced it once and her description sounded pretty horrific, apparently it's quite common though.

Re: Dreams
I'm always myself, and also, I can almost always realize I'm in a dream, and if I don't like it, I can wake myself up or sometimes even 'shift' the dream to something different. I can't control what's going to happen next...as like where the dream will go next...but I can shift out of something I don't like, or I can wake up.
Also, those dreams I can't shift out of...are usually so realistic that I'm not aware that I'm dreaming and those dreams are often in color too. Otherwise, I don't remember colors in my dreams.

Re: Dreams
Weirdly enough I don't really dream. It's been a long time since I've dreamt(or at least that I remember). I do know that when I have dreamt in the past I was always myself, I never really thought of the fact you could dream as someone else
yeah

I can only remember once when I was dreaming that I didn't know I was dreaming, and it was weird because I was asleep and awake at the same time. It was really weird. I could see my boyfriend at the time talking to me and could hear it, but I couldn’t process it, and I could “see” my dream at the same time.
I also always dream in colour! I didn’t know dreaming in black and white was a thing! Brains! So cool!

Re: Dreams
I get this. I had full on withdrawal when I broke my knee and that was only a few months out of the saddle. I can’t imagine it being permanent. Have you considered carriage driving at all? Might be another way to keep up with the horsesBrian Chunn wrote: ↑4 years ago I always dream of riding horses...worked in racing for 42 years (until last year) had to stop riding about 6/7 years ago (crumbling vertebrae ..so painfull) and I seem to dream of the thing I loved the most....how sad am I?

Always myself and first person as well. It's hard for me to imagine any other"format", haha.
We were having this discussion a couple weeks ago at work and one of my co-workers said she had experienced sleep paralysis. It does sound terrifying.
