Strange Facts About Dreams

Amazing things that happen to people while dreaming.

Description:
Sleep is something that we do and need on a regular basis in order for our bodies to function. For most of us that sleep, we tend to experience some sort of dreaming, where our minds take off and we experience another world of existence. Sometimes we have good dreams, and sometimes we have nightmares that can terrify us to the core and force us to sleep with the lights on for the rest of the night. But our dreams are so much more than a nightly occurrence. But instead, they offer glimpses into our very own psyches and tell us so much about our psychology and how we deal with stress, anxiety, and overall feelings of our life.
Studies have shown that we experience 4-6 dreams per night, which we quickly forget within the first ten minutes that we wake up. In the time that we dream, it can total out to be about 6 years of our life that we spend dreaming. While sleeping is typically perceived as a time of rest, scientists have discovered that the brain is busier than ever in our sleep while it is recharging. In fact, the brain can actually learn more efficiently and uses sleep and dreaming to process the new information it has received during the day. In dreaming, the brain can also sort through problems and dilemmas and come up with solutions.
Needless to say, the brain is more active while it is recharging. This stage is known as rapid eye movement, and the body will also release a chemical that paralyzes you so that you don’t act out your dreams. If you wake up suddenly while the chemical is still present, sleep paralysis can result. If the brain hasn’t completely woken up yet, people can hallucinate and see their dreams before them. The result is the person is paralyzed, unable to speak, and could possibly be experiencing some pretty terrifying images that they don’t understand.
Those who are blind can also dream, but in a different way. For those who have been blind since birth, they have no concept of visual stimulation, and therefore, can’t process visual imagery in their sleep. Instead, the blind experience dreams with their other senses in a heightened form, such as sound, taste, smell, and touch.
While dreaming, we also act out our fears and personal insecurities. If you’re in a serious relationship, you’ve probably experienced a dream or two where your significant other is having an affair. Sometimes, these dreams are so real that the dreamer is still angry upon awakening. As long as the line between reality and personal worries is clear, then hopefully the drama stays in dream land.
Sometimes our dreams can lead to more physical results, such as nocturnal emissions, or better known as wet dreams. Not just males experience this kind of pleasure and euphoria in their dreams, but females as well. This phenomenon is common in adolescence, but adults can have these sort of dreams too.
These are but a few of the strange things about dreams. Check out the video and find out what other extraordinary things your brain is trying to tell you!

we all hate that moment when the dream is way better than reality and you wake up

[qwertytwerqy]

That moment when your dream is about to reach its best part until someone wakes you up.

[CapitalTeeth]

[tvrs]

[BluJuiice]

Sleep paralysis is a real bitch. I used to get it all the time but only when I slept on my left side, unable to see the bedroom door. I always thought someone was in the room when I woke up. I actually had enough strength one time to raise my arm and give the "intruder" the middle finger LOL.

[Neko]

I have a dream before but I was crying in it I woke up and I was crying XD

[Rebecca-objz]

Woah, I remember a lot of my dreams. I can remember one from 4 years ago!

[juli]

I do lucid dreaming and sometimes future dreaming

[rosedinh]

I have " Future Dreams " everyday! But, most of the time I forget them, but when I do something COMPLETLY RANDOM, my body, somehow, remembers.

[markblaze]

I always dreamed of monsters as a kid...maybe a sign telling me that the world is and was a dangerous place-also I dream about the future a lot...even weirder...about 60% of these future dreams come true-only a couple times have I had sleep paralysis, , and it scares the shit out of me...woke up unable to talk like wtf then I turned to see a dark figure in the distance...he slowly move toward me and I felt my heart racing...I began to feel tears rush down my face as it came closer and closer, then it touched my nose...I blinked and when my eyes opened again I saw a bright light to where the dark figure was gone...what was in front of me was an angle like creature with wings...smiling, she said you are safe...and boom just like that I pushed up and screamed, I wiped the tears out of my eyes and found my self in my room...cold...dark...but nice room. True story IGN 11/10 this would make a good book now that I re-read it.

It sucks when you're just about to fall asleep, and then you fall in a dream and you jerk in your bed.

[susieharder]

I sometimes jump when I am in the middle of sleeping

[dufez]

I wish I could record my dreams to watch them later

[FSDeathgoal]

I actually get Sleep paralysis and can't scream for shit. Really Scary.

[XtrAMassivE]

My weirdest dream was when I was dreaming that i was dreaming in a dream. I woke up  at least two times, the last time I woke up in my bed and first I thought that I have finally really woken up, but I realized that I didn't. I then looked towards my computer and saw some weird dark thing sitting behind it and then going towards me. I became paralyzed and couldn't do anything but then I remembered that I need to think of love to wake up from it. I did just as that thing went over my face. It was some really weird and creepy stuff. It was like lucid inception paralysis dreaming.
