Hi all. New here. Wish I could use an avatar but oh well.
I joined to make this thread because I’ve read about this theme before and have experienced it myself in the past, most recently today. This isn’t about shared dreaming for the record.
A theory I’ve heard is that you can connect to other realities when you dream so you can experience “real people” so to speak. I’m not too sure about the alternate reality hypothesis but I do know I have woken up seriously miserable because for whatever reason I strongly miss certain dream characters. Does anybody know what I’m talking about? Thoughts?
How my dreamlife goes effects my waking life,I Watched a good DC friend of mine die right before my eyes after she was stabbed in the back,Ive been shot in the back and woken up in alot of pain.
Ive nearly drowned on several occasions and woken up choaking and gasping for air.
It’s not pleasant in the slightest.
there are definitely people i encounter that i feel i have an incredible bond with, sometimes these can even be repeated characters that will show up in other dreams as well. sometimes i will know them as “friends” of those characters and so forth. but i have woken up and wanted to go back desperately to be with them again, and it is a sad thing to be separated after feeling that close knowing that it will most likely never happen again.
