So since I started taking my meds many years ago my dreams became more vivid and I can remember them better and in more detail. Usually this is great but I watched Terrifier 3 last night and had one the most messed up scenes of a dream stuck in my head. Wtf brain?! Seriously, it involved a child and now I’m messed up because of my own fucking brain, not even a real thing.

Any of you had a similar experience?

    I was maybe 10? Or so at the time, and I had a dream where I was having fun playing with animals. I didn’t realize there was also a venomous snake there, too… it bit my leg and it hurt really bad. Then everything went black. I knew I was dead, and could still feel the pain and hear/feel things around but horrifyingly distorted. My family was crying but all I could feel was pain. I floated around until I woke up.

    Maybe 12? I had a dream where I was decapitated. When the sword went through my neck, I could taste the blade’s metallic taste (or maybe it was my own blood? Wait no, the taste went away once the blade was through.) my vision stayed clear for a few seconds as I rolled away from my body… then everything went red, then black.

    Bonus: this isn’t a dream, I think, but occasionally when I’m falling asleep, I get exploding head syndrome. But there’s ANOTHER thing that happens that’s similar, where my body sinks down into the bed, into dark black weightlessness. Every time this happens, a VERY LOUD wind sound starts blowing and my body gets thrown around like I’m in the middle of a tornado, but the tornado is just spinning randomly. Just whipped violently back and forth, then I wake up panting and sweating. Kinda tough to go back to sleep when it happens.
