Sleeping habits (1 Viewer)

[Quetzalcoatl]

Yeah. That's the idea. To an extent.

For an example, I had a dream the other night that was really fun and I woke up about 3am and was able to jump back in it. Woke up again around 5am and got back into it again.

Nice. I always waned to try it, just was kinda skeptical if it would work or not.

I usually just concentrate on the person or event really hard, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I think it helps that I'm really good at falling asleep.

I do that too when I feel something is going to shit.

He was a complete depressive, but I wonder if it affects a certain type of person or is just random.

I've regularly had sleep paralysis for like the last 3 years or so, and I don't have any mental issues. I think it's random, but a pain in the ass. On those nights it does happen, it usually happens multiple times too. I think my record is 7 times in one night.

The last three years you say? I think I can pinpoint it, surely a stressful period in your life

I had sleep paralysis when I was in DC, it was fucking horrible. I didn't get the terrors, but feeling awake and asleep for hours on end and not being able to stop it was a nightmare. I don't what caused it and ended it but it might be to do with being awake for 48 hours straight and going through 3 times zones during that time. I hope I never get it again.

It's weird that way, when it started I wasn't really stressed out at all tbh. Stress could've only been a factor in the last year or so.

But it's all whatever now. I'm used to waking up to demons sitting on my chest and screaming loudly in my ears.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Oh, I think that happened to me once but I thought I was lucid dreaming.

This is an interesting article that explains the route cause of a lot of modern sleep issues (artificial light) http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-16964783

Isn't lucid dreaming when you know that you are dreaming, and can control it?

I'm not a morning person. I need at least 30 minutes to start functioning so I kinda feel like crap when I wake up.

On the other hand, when I have lectures and when I spend 7 hours there and when I go to the gym or do any activity that tires me, I'm totally messed up in the evening. So I guess it depends of my activities during the day and if I tire my ass. But morning is a hell, yea.

and i thought i was the only one

i am tired the most when i wake up actually, for the past i dont know 4 or 5 years i rarely am tired before going to bed. if there is anything annoying about me its the need for the tv or a movie playing for me to fall asleep, i've gotten my self used to this horrible habit its getting hard to sleep any other way.

I must say, my sleeping cycle these days is just insane. I usually wake up at around 11:30am-12pm to get ready to work. I return home at 12am, and usually end up working again till about 5-7am, then sleep for about 5-6 hours and the continue the cycle. When I decide to work from home, the pattern can vary. I wake up at around 3pm and work maybe till 9am the next day.

Oh, and when I say work, I'm procrastinating half the time. Like right now. :groan:

 

[JuveJay]

Fuck sleep paralysis for a laugh, glad I don't get that. Demons wake up with me sat on their chest.

Yup. I really need to try that some time.

Yep.

It's a bitch alright. I usually feel the presence of demons and shit too. Like physically feel heavy pressure on my chest and really loud screaming in my ears, among other things.

Yep, its a learned behaviour too. A guy I knew at uni used to do it but when he did we wouldn't see him for a few days.

Apparently Marco Motta is something of a grandmaster of this skill.
