I had that a few months ago
I was freaking out trying to move

There is a two percent of the population that require 2 hrs or less a night, and many of them can go weeks without any real negative effects. Quite frankly, you're wrong on this. The average person needs sleep; my statement was never that people don't need to sleep, but that there are people who go long periods without it to no negative effects at all. As a matter of fact, they tend to be more fit, stronger, and more resistant to pain then the average human.

Chyeeeaahh was saying that without dreams we go mad. There are people who go without dreaming who don't go mad. Therefore, his statement, well generally true in a sense, is not completely true.

That's the worst. Ever have one where ur trying to scream for help but it won't work or ur screamin really low

Yeah fuck, or the ones where you wake up screaming

or the ones where your grandma turns your dad lesbo to run train on her sister

you quoted yourself to agree with yourself?

also, you cannot read/ visualize symbols correctly in your dreams. If you ever lucid dream, try it. Shit looks like its written in Hylian
whats dat



i used to have mad vivid dreams where I was dying/ getting sucked through a wormhole of one universe, and waking up in another... legit woke up sometimes wondering if it was real or not, or id have false memories/ memories that i ciuldnt tell if they were from dreams or not.

dreams are active memory

Word@ waking up screaming

Lucid dreaming is wild.

Lmfao

oh you....

You just agreed with me and said I'm wrong.

Anjahl, that's not entirely accurate. IT was just a claim made by some peasant asian guy. Also, yeah, you need sleep. I can both go against you and with you on your claim where I used to not sleep at all, the most was about 2-3 years ago where I didn't sleep (at most was about 6-7 days) and then slept and it recurred for about 10 more times till I finally went mad and now I'm here.

jk, I mean the part about not sleeping is true but I'm not mad (some might disagree), but it really was bad, for me. I get about 6-7 hours now and I feel absolutely great, sometimes 5. And I can function on 3-4 fine, 2 hours is pushing it, but then again I am only 12 years old.

but seriously, yeah, you need sleep.

if you don't enter deep cycle sleep, your body doesn't repair your organs at a sufficient rate. that'd be like running a car for a week straight, but on a constant feed of gas. eventually you will die from it.

My only occasion of sleep paralysis was when I first moved into an apartment, and I had a wall seperator (see through) from the living room to the dining room. I was in the dining room since I hadnt set everything up and I saw this shadowy figure go around with what seemed like a scythe or a long sword clutched, and he was walking so fucking slow but menacingly and it was freaky as hell. Normally, this has happened to me before, I've had a few people break in my house before, and I'm not really frightened by anything. I tried to get up because I thought I was awake, but I couldn't and by then I thought they drugged me or something cause I was slurring my speech. And by the time he turned the corner that's when I woke up and turned into a ninja and started fucking up absolutely nothing.
@Zenland. I also hear that sleep paralysis is due to interrupted REM

( i was scared, apparently walking slow [zombie like, menacing, unscathed and unbodily is deemed 'scary'] also wearing clothes that cover your body with a weapon make it something like 3,000% scarier)

@Darth Yoda I'm sure it is because the way I understand it is you're paralyzed during rem anyway. If you're not paralyzed during rem you're in a small group of people.

I was guna write something, but I looked up at the TV right before now and saw that scene from xmen 3 where professor X blows up in midair while staring solemnly into wolverines eyes...

haha man, i am glad you pointed that out - because quoting myself to agree with myself is fucking awesome, and i look forward to doing it more often!

i THINK i was tryna respond to Zen's post re: 'what if the dreams arent dreams, but we wake up just to tire to sleep' -- OR to Geno's point about dreams recreating different parts of our day/etc in different orders

pretty much any post on that page woulda made sense to quote and talk about 'time' OTHER than mine haha... but fuck, i dont know...i was in the zone there and might have triggered a convo between me and myself.


word up --- have you had that moment RIGHT before too, where you actually acknowledge that you THINK you're reading because you just "understand" whatever it is your processing, but then finally see that it isn't normal language/order/letters/etc.? that's one of the more interesting moments in the 'ol dream scape from my perspective lol

lol, couldn't agree more!
