Bad dreams?

Lately Ive been having very vivid and stressful dreams.. Its always somebody chasing me, sometimes its the police, last time(last night) it went like this:

I woke up in this lab room in this tube, my two roomates were with me. I busted out of the glass after the girl coordinator left the room, then got my buddies out also. I snapped a guys neck that was watching us, he somehow didn't notice us.. I took his gun and we all ran out of tha back door. It was some big warehouse that stored charity items? Anyways we are swimming across this river to get into the woods to escape and both my friends get violently shot down in the water.. I had to swim through their blood getting it all in my mouth.. But I got away.. I then was running through this neighborhood that I lived in when I was a kid, I was trying to find my old house to explain to them that I lived there previously and I needed to hide somewhere from ravaging murderers. I guess since they were the only people I knew in the neighborhood that seemed logical..
Anyways, I couldnt find it and just walked into this guys garage back door. He was sitting on a couch in there and asked what I was doing. I hesitated and told him it was a long story. But he insisted I sat down and explained so I did. He told me to call 911. So I call them and its the girls voice that wants to kill me. I told her I wasnt falling for it and felt extremely permeable. Next, the murderers surrounded the house and the man told me that it wasn't cool anymore and I needed to leave.
At this point I woke up, and fell back asleep. I was aware I was dreaming for just enough time to pull up a menu, like a video game, skyrim in specific. But the menu let me 'fast travel' to somewhere else. This place was in the same neighborhood but at least I was out of there. Somehow I met back up with one of my dead roomates and beat ass. The menaces hauled up in hummers shooting at us and jumping out of their cars. But we shot every last one of them, me getting shot a few times myself.. Thats all I really remember.. But the blood.. There was blood and killing and stressfulness in every single moment.

I slept until 2 in the afternoon without even realizing..

Its reoccurring too... That scenario. Not the dream, but the scenario. It goes like this.
1) I escape from something
2) Im on the run from people trying to kill me
3) Friends violently die, as I watch them.
4) I get too a random house and there is a man sitting where I bust in.
5) They let me stay until it gets too intense for them
6) I kill all of them and get hurt in the process.

This happens once or twice a week and has been happening for months.
Obviously Im stressed about something.. But what? I don't feel stressed really..

It is to the point where I get such a bad sleep that when I have to get up for work in the morning I knock myself out with weed to force myself to not remember my dreams so I'll get a good sleep..

What could this be? Im sure a lot of you have more knowledge on dreams than I do..

Studies have shown that people report that most of the dreams we have are pretty damn stressfull and reoccurring. The most widely agreed upon idea is that having high stress situations while you dream make you more prepared for the real situation.

The other idea I've heard, and it makes sense to me, is that your mind is replaying stressful situations in different combinations. It's supposedly a getting-over-it mechanism. Bad stresses need more time in dreams. cn

Hey OP. If you grow, you probably get paranoid and stressed once in a while. I've had dreams where I wake up and the cops are in my living room; they have some of my plants in their hands and are going through the grow room. We talk about prison, and I'm sort of resigned to it, but I try to talk myself out of the situation. Other times I see them coming up the walkway very stealth like. I sneak out the back door in my underwear and try to get to a friend's place feeling very under dressed on the train ride over. Most of the time I'm comfortable with accepting the risk, but I guess I can thank my subconscious for working it out...

Well my question to the first guy is, how much master baiting is too much?


  • Humorious... but inapropriate for the seriousness of this mans worries... minus rep.​




Damn Strife, thanks for the nobility haha

Anyways I watched that video and it does make sense.. I feel like the fear that humans have of anything is linked to death. Your scared of the dark because something may come out and kill you, scared of spiders because ultimately its not the pain of the bite, its the aftermath, what that bite could do to you. Ultimately being death. You don't run from a spider because it hurts to be bitten, or because they might force you to call 911 and stack up on hospital bills. The only reason why anyone is scared of anything seems like it would be because those fears are connected down a subconscious thought processes to death. Keeping a human living and fulfilling its role.

If one is experiencing anxiety during waking life, it would make sense that the brain would try and condition the person to not be anxious only by projecting the anxiety in its extracted state. Then your brain would make a scenario, sort of similar to real life, to play out the situation..

But why always the same thing? Why would I need to know how to run away from murderers and cops all the time? I am quite paranoid of cops, avoid them at all costs.. And murderers.. But I'm not scared of death.. If that dream were real life, after awhile I'd do the same try and kill them all, however, if I were to die in my final battle, my last attempt, Id be content.. So why is death the anxiety in my dreams? Its not my main thinking process.. Pretty much all of my anxiety in waking life is during social situations.. New people, I just can't be loose with my tongue. Everything comes out wrong always because I over contemplate it. Always have.. It gets better as time goes on, but going with what I said earlier, how can a social fear possibly be linked to death? I don't want to talk to people because I feel like it will kill me? Theres no scenario that can represent that.

Most peoples nightmares are probably similar to mine. Running away to avoid death. But what if every nightmare just makes a person stronger because no matter what your fear is of anything, the ultimate fear is death. And once one overcomes the fear of death itself, this is when the person will have no fears..

I don't know I rambling haha

This all goes intertwines though. My social anxiety is linked to death in some way. It has to be. If I had no social anxiety, I'd be a much more worthwhile person. Unfortunately for me I have to be comfortable with a person in order to demonstrate my ideas in the right way. Otherwise I spend my time trying to figure out what they would like me to say. Which in reality doesn't matter. But Ive found in the business world especially it is easier to fake everyone out. Do as they want you to do. Then once at top change it. If the top ever comes.

That being said if my anxiousness disappeared suddenly, I feel like I'd be relieved of nightmares. Thus not being scared of death anymore, and I'd be free :p

Does this all make any sense?

I ALWAYS chug 20 oz of orange juice before I go to bed. Not only do I have the craziest dreams, but they are in color. Alot to be said for natural acids !!!!!!!!

Please elaborate haha

Before bed I take gingko biloba(improves brain circulation), melatonin 4-6mg (Improves natural REM sleep cycle, and helps me get to sleep)..
Days that I am truly stressed though I smoke loads of weed before bed in order to open my eyes to the next day.

What do natural acids do in sleep and which ones do what?

I have no idea, all I know is that chugging 20 oz of orange juice before bed makes for a crazy dreamy night for me. I really have no idea why ( the natural ACIDs comment was tongue-in-cheek ) but it sure is alot of fun. And in vivid color, which never happens without the orange juice. Maybe it's just my weird thing, I really don't have any scientific explanation.
