No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities.

IJWTS - So in the last two months or so I've had times at night where I would be asleep but see something so realistic that I would turn on my light and look for whatever it is and as I wake up I realize it must have just been a dream because otherwise I wouldnt be able to see it because it was dark.

Last night it happened again, usually i just see a bug, or something, wake up, look for it and go back to bed but last night it was different. I dreamed(?) I looked behind my bed and saw a snake. I then proceeded to call out to my mom who was still awake and tell her (very calmly) that there was a snake under my bed. As she questioned me more I began to wake up and realize what I had said.

For me it was embarassing and slightly scary. Im a bit freaked out to go to sleep because I dont want it to happen again, and Im just wondering what causes it. They're not like "dreams".

Sounds like hallucinations, actually. Did you start a new med or up a dosage on an existing one? Talk to your doctor!!!

Actually no, Im currently only taking ibprofen which I've been taking off and on for the past 3 months or so. The two (including the one last night) most recent ones happened weeks apart. It does though feel like hallucinations because it's not like I go from being asleep to awake, i already feel awake, and then it's like my brain catches up and I realize whatever I've "dreamed" isnt really there.

I would still advise that you speak with your doctor, Jennie. That's scary.
Yeah it is. I'd hate for it to get worse. But I hate dwelling on it, because I've heard that if you think the worst, it may happen lol Which thats probably just a myth but I'd hate for it to happen :p

IJWTS-I hate when someone says they want to talk to me about something then leave to go talk on the phone. I'm old and it's nearing my bedtime! :p
IJWTS - I have something to talk to you about.

Sounds like the sleepwalking I used to do as a kid. I used to rearrange my furniture. These days I wake up looking for something I think I've seen in my room or dreamt about. Usually bugs. Blech!
Thats how it started, I'd wake up just the next day looking for something, then it started accuring at night. Last night was the worst though.

IJWTS- Jennie,

I have had those happen to me before. I had one with a snake...but I saw & felt it IN my bed with me! and I have had a few more over the course of 2 years... they are usually caused by stress and stuff [ I think]. :)

:hug: so I love you, relax, and sleep well. :hug:



ETA: if that means that we are mentally unstable...at least we are a good match....Maybe those nutty CFers were right waaaay back in the match thread! ;) :p

Crazy, I used to have crazy lucid dreams about demons, snakes, spirits, just about anything really... it used to happen when I was becoming closer and closer to God; I get the odd dream still, but nothing like then.

The most recent was the other night, I was dreaming about people and the possibility of them trying to hurt my family. I try to take my dreams as casual as possible, unless it's fairly obvious that there's a message inside of it. Try cataloging your dreams and see what you come up with.

IJWTS idk if I've said it here but I've lost like 15 pounds in the past few weeks since getting out of school.

I still look overweight and unattractive, so it's nice but it's not amazing.

How have you lost the weight?

My new job is very busy....hustling everywhere, lifting heavy stuff and going up and down stairs, stocking and whatnot. That and I get sandwiches there for $2, so I have a sandwich that I made, a whatever dinner and a small breakfast, and I lost weight and am much stronger imo.
