What function do dreams hold in the mind?
Of course no one really knows... but what do u think?
I've heard from an evolutionary standpoint (I think it was on like, V sauce or some TED convention) dreams play a part in preparing us for the following days tragedies, being that dreams often have a negative connotation. That seems far fetched/stoopid to me though. Maybe dreams are our subconscious interpretation of the transcendent (lol, na) Or maybe just our brain going over what happened during the day. I dunno, what do you know?! Fuck you...

What if dreams are actually not dreams at all? What if life is the real dream and we wake up only to tire ourselves for sleep?

A scientific explanation that I've heard, suggests that dreams are our everyday thought.. weather consciensly, or subconsciously thought about -being played out as a movie while we sleep. Often times all jumbled up and pieced together from this thought to that thought compiled into one big cluster fuck.
Its basically liiving out your thoughts in a random unorganized film.

I think it's apart of the dmt release. If we didn't dream, we'd go mad imo

if your mind enters alpha mode, or deeper brainwave levels, you do not experience time. that is why clocks will show up weird as fuck in dreams... one of the main triggers (or tips/tricks) for lucid dreaming.... your mind cannot co-create the environment you experience in the dream world while "managing time" -- because time is not a dimension we influence in any reality... so look at a clock while dreaming -- you'll see it either stopped, going backwards -- or showing up with weird symbols and shit... something that "triggers" that you are dreaming. some will wake up immediately until they are used to 'riding the wave' --- but eventually, you will find what we will all find, at some 'point in time' :)

Entertainment while sleeping
also the average number of dreams can be from 50-100 per night, but we only remember 1 or 2

really vivid dreams terrify me. when i can come back with a whole dream in its entirety it really fucks me up for that whole day
like 4 years after i was out of school, i had a dream with the people i sat at lunch with. i never thought of them. it just happened. we were on a giant ass trampoline freestyle battling in a huge field with like a woodstock audience and i was wackkkkkk. but other dude was worse so i was like YOOOOO. but then the scene shifted and it was just this one chick i wanted to fuck and we were under a bridge and she was naked and i could smell all her scents and feel the sun on my skin and the wind on my balls. it basically really happened in my mind. its a memory now. burned in there as much as anything most of my dreams are terrifying tho. i started a dream thread at PR where if i had a crazy dream i would immediately post as much as i could remember to document it since i've had weed now for months and months my nights are uneventful, and work kills me because my alarm goes off when im the most dead and probably about to teleport to another time |

I've never heard of that @Masaii. I'll have to look it up if it has anything to do with what I said because honestly I've been thinking this for awhile.

dream documentation can help you, literally, on your own -- get smarter and be better. whatever you want. it helps you literally "know thyself".... know your subconscious -- you can effing develop faster reflexes. I've dreamed about playing guitar and made up a tune i didnt even know how to write or strum just because i wanted to learn how to play.... now, i have really fucking big fingers and need to figure some dexterity shit out, but point is -- dreams are powerful and dynamic and many levels man --- really cool you kept a thread about it. Do you have a link still?

I had a dream the other night that was a dream within a dream, but the dream within the dream was a lucid dream. So i realised I was dreaming, then woke up from that dream into another dream where I was like, fuck that was a crazy dream, and then I woke up from that dream and thought, am I still dreaming?
Crazy shit

we just forget how to remember. that moment where you see a "pop can" the next morning and remember 1 dream, and that one dream brings you back to a whole other dream/experience... i will never trust external stats when it comes to dreams -- and im a statistician lol

I would go to sleep and memorize the room around me, and see like a sock on the floor, and then create a "second point in time" like: "tomorrow i am going to the dentist" --- and "anything b/w me seeing that sock on the floor and the dentist is a dream" ---- I started literally waking up and reproducing the same imagery around me, then would have a dream within a dream ---- YOU ALWAYS REMEMBER "WAKING UP" BUT NOT GOING TO SLEEP -- right?? it's really funny when you have a dream within a dream.... real deep shit though dont wanna make a tl;dr post but ya, i still aint been to the dentist. dream on
