I know I have a lot of weird dreams and I'm probably not the only one. Not looking for naughty/smutty dreams bt the more interesting ones. Here's mine from last night (well, 20 hours ago): I'm in theatre and we're operating on a patient. She's a muslim who wears a headscarf. There's a portion of her brain missing. I don't know whether we just removed a cancer, removed part of a brain, whether it was caused by an accident or just congenital. Her skull was intact. As part of a new technique, we fill the cavity with a liquid which represents liquified nerves (but looks strangely like heinz tinned spaghetti). The idea is that this will regenerate the missing area of the brain. Unbeknownst to anyone, an eyeball is in the mixture and enters the brain. As the nerve matter is assimilated into the brain, the eyeball also is attached. Thus the patient now has an inward looking eye that is able to see the rest of the brain (feck knows how it can see anything given it's dark in there!). During recovery, the patient reports being able to see inside her own head and can see vivid colours. Strangely, I know what she's talking about despite not experiencing it first hand. |

Here's some I made earlier: http://forum.yourwired.net/index.php?showtopic=1402 I've had some very vivid ones recently due to disturbed sleep (stress) and I know some of them seemed strange or amusing when I woke up, but typically they’ve faded to grey now... |

One from the other night. I was on holiday and staying at a hostel type place that seems to crop up quite regularly in my dreams. Anyway, I was in the pool with a load of other people and we decided to play a game. The game was that someone poured a powdery stuff onto the pool and it spread out across the surface then we all had to go under water and the person ignited the powder. If you surfaced you burned to death so you had to hold your breath. This is where it gets weird though because for years and years I have been able to breathe under water in my dreams. So I was swimming at the bottom of the pool facing upward just breathing slowly. Can't really remember anything after that. --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?5apkrc |

Last night's was a combination of the events of the day and was triggered by pizza and nachos (cheese before bed gives me strange vivid dreams and this is worse with baked cheese). So my sister and I are going to meet my mother in Malaysia. We land fine but we can't find her and have to travel. We make it to a place that has cabins made from logs. There are wild animals loose. Whilst trying to track her, there's an attack by terrorists who run past the crowds of people whilst releasing little seeds which my sister and I accidentally inhale. I instantly realise what I've inhaled and warn my sister - it's poison. I feel myself choking to death, unable to breathe. At that point I wake up in real life and my head is forward with my chin tucked in and I'm struggling to breathe. |

Yeah, that threw me as well. I dreamt the other day that my brother brought Kylie home, by the time I managed to get dressed and enter the room she was gone, then she was in the garden, but by the time I got there, she was in the car and they were driving away... Another night I dreamt I sneezed and what came out looked like a snotty onion bargee. |

I had a lovely dream not that long ago where I came downstairs and my Dad, who has passed away, was sitting on the sofa. It was such a lovely surprise. My Mum used to tell me when she'd dreamt of her late husband. Now I've lost my Mum and Dad I know why she enjoyed them so much. It's great to see them again. |

I can usually remember them until I go to tell someone then they seem to vanish from my brain. |

Last night I dreamt my dog killed my cat. That isn't strange - they hate each other. Always have. That's why we still have a stair gate - to separate the buggers. The strange bit of the dream was that it happened in our old house, which we sold four years ago. |

You're not supposed to remember dreams. Memories are, according to theory, encoded into the connections between the synapses in your brain by repeated electrical pulses along them. When you're dreaming, your brain is firing pretty much at random. If it wasn't the same phase of sleep in which the body is effectively paralysed, everyone who dreamed would look like they were having a fit. This randomness doesn't allow for the repeated pulses along the same branches that encode memories onto your brain in an orderly way. So if you do remember any part of a dream, it's just down to the random chance of a particular brain cell being 'switched on' enough times to get encoded properly in the random brainstorm that is your dream. It's not very romantic I know, and a lot of it is theory we haven't proved yet, but that's the truth of it as far as we know. |

I very rarely remember dreams - maybe one every 18 months or so. |

There are times when I remember 10-15 small separate dreams.  TBH the more memorable/vivid ones tend to be a reflection of what happened that day.eg:
This is all either stuff that happened in Noah or my own viewpoints on the film. |

I dream in complex epics, in surround-sound and technicolour, I nearly always remember them and have some familiar dreams that recur every week or two. |
