now i'm perfectly used to dreams of horrible things where i wake up shaking or, better yet, not remembering my dreams at all and being very thankful for it. apparently a mischevious demon followed my friends home from a fighting event and decided it liked me.
it makes people say and do odd things in their sleep..
*trigger walks into the room where i am asleep*
*i follow his movement with my head, eyes shut*
*he lays down on the bed*
me - are you going to stop or keep going?
trigger - what?
no response
trigger - what?
no response
trigger - what are you talking about?
me - mostly about pajamas
i don't remember any of this, i believe i was alseep the whole time. i do not usually talk in my sleep. sometimes i wimper or mutter, but i do not talk.
background - in my dreams, if i remember them, i am often attacked by things. monsters, burglars, take your pick, but never anyone i know. i keep knocking them down and they keep getting back up. this dream, in its many forms, has haunted me for years.
yesterday i took a nap after my final because i was tired and didn't sleep much the night before. i dreamed that beat three people unconcious, one with my bare fists, one by grabbing his hair and smashing his face into the floor, then grabbing his face and shaking him but instead of just grabbing, my fingers went through one side of his cheek and out the other so i had a firm grip in his face, and the last one, who had no grab-able hair, by picking him up and hitting him against a set of bleachers until he stopped struggling.
then a kid i know from fighting came after me. i ran into the next room, and when he came through the door i picked him up and beat him to death against the floor. then another person i recognized from fighting, one who has been getting on my nerves recently, came in and i picked him up and beat him against the floor too. at one point i had hooked my legs through a bar on the ceiling and was throwing him at the floor, then catching him when he bounced. i beat him to death too, but the creepy part is that when i was done, i grabbed him by the back of the head and scraped his face against the rough surface of a decorative column until i was only holding the skin on the back of his head, everything else was scraped away.
that's when i woke up, feeling strangely satisfied.
the legend about this demon goes that eventually, if we don't get rid of it, it will make someone kill in their sleep, the only time it can take over.
freakin' creepy, i'm thinking about taking up insomnia.

I wouldn't worry about it. It's just your mind's way of releasing built up tension.
Lately, my hubby has been yelling "Fuck!" every damned time he rolls over...all night! I may kill HIM, but not while I'm asleep. ;)
mom - thanks, i hope so. i hold no faith so the demon idea doesn't bother me, but the new abilities in my sleep are worrying. i have never sleepwalked, but i am a very vioent sleeper, i kick and punch if i'm fighting. this could be a bad combination
Not that I am any expert, and I am not trying to be all deep and insightful here, but dreams as horrifically vicious as that would seem to me to indicate a huge problem and a danger. Have you ever gotten counseling for what it is that is bothering you? I believe you mentioned it once and if I remember it right then I know just how you feel, but dreams like that ... well, that's a big deal. Something sounds ready to explode and sooner or later ...
Speaking of kicking and punching in your sleep, I once dreamed I was in a big fight and I threw a front kick so hard that I sent the bedspread straight up into the ceiling fan.
That sounds more like a night terror than a nightmare. Jaysus, how scary!
Some people bring their work home, you bring your fighting home. Maybe you should stop fighting for a while and see if that helps.
My dream that I remember from last night is I couldn't understand what anyone was saying, I could hear them, but not well enough to understand. I kept saying "what?"
Wow, now that is a fascinating dream. Maybe it means you did well on your final. You were victorious.
Hope ya had a great Moms Day !
thought abt you and your tat earlier today...wondering how you are...
xxoo
releasing tension sounds right,
I wonder if the attack thing is being unsure of how to face challenges...I used to think dreams didn't mean anything --but then you get a few that come true and you think--how could my brain do that?
Some day? :-)
freakin' hell! i can't leave for a week without the undesirables skulking in!
i'll say it again because no one seems to listen:
if you're not in my good graces, if you're not a friend or don't come by way of a friend, probably if you're not linked, get fucked.
sideways.
steve - i prefer to put it down to the demon if it means less effort on my part.
i'll bet that either broke the fan or scared the hell out of the neighbors.
steph - know, but since it was just the once, i don't mind so much. it was rather satisfying...
toby - it really isn't like fighting the sport, but it is a thought. and i hate those dreams where you can't function, creepy!
fish - i like the answer much better.
wally - why thank you honey. you too, you mother you.
so, plumbing? that explains the mooning picture, plumber's crack from hell.
d - thanks honey, i appreciate the thoughts
bryant - welcome friend. i hold no faith, including meaning in dreams, so i just think of it as my hard drive rebooting.
toby - getting there, i'm gonna be so creepy inked up when i'm old ^_^
