I know it’s kinda an odd question.. but I’ve noticed that in some of my dreams.. things are opposite..
Like a building that I’m familiar with in everyday life, is opposite on my dreams,, a road or a particular landmark is on the opposite side.
Just curious is all,,, any one else notice that in their dreams?
And by the way,,, I do dream in color.

Don't think so. I've noticed that in dreams, things like distance and physics are very flexible. It's kinda like being in a movie where there's no plot, anything can happen.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

Are adult beverages involved?

Not backwards, but more like serial dreams that repeat over days, weeks,...years. Sometimes very long gaps in them. They begin like a summary lacking most details. Then as time passes and the dream repeats, all the details slowly get filled. My mother & grandmother (both very religous) went on rampages screaming at me to not have these. Always was yelling at me that I was messing with something I don't understand and shouldn't be involved in. Unfortunately, most of those dreams all came true and they were usually pretty horrific. Over the coarse of about 6 months I was having dreams about a car wreck and the drivers were killed. night after night, it only slowly filled in details. Final one was seeing my buddies GTO bent up like an A-frame and ended with me seeing him in his coffin. Just over a week later, drunk driver crossed the center and killed him. Tried for days to contact him to tell him to stay home....never got the chance. That one really screwed with me pretty bad and took a long time to get through. Others not as bad. Over a week of dreaming about a tree falling. Had my daughter up for an elk hunt and I about pooped myself when I saw the tree from my dreams. Immediately moved our truck/camper away to a different spot. Next morning, the tree was laying exactly where I started to set up camp. Good chance we would have been killed.
Back as a kid I talked to my pastor about it happening. He looked like he was the pastor in The Exorcist after I told him about a few of the dreams. After his terrified look at lack of talking, I mostly keep it to myself. Even my wife is very uneasy about me talking about them.

They were frequent as a teenager and through my 30's. Gradually over time, they became far and few in between. But still to this day, if I have dreams that repeat, I get on edge trying to figure out what is going to happen.

I can never remember having a dream, or anything similar to one, in my whole life so far 72 years old and still waiting

Always feel left out LOL when conversations start in the family about them or with friends talking about them !

But nothing ever shows up or has come to me about anything or of anything, I go to sleep then I wake up thats it.

I've been through plenty of things I would figure might cause some sort of kick back, good and bad, some really bad
nothing !!
Any clues, how to's, nope don't do drugs, no drinking, nothing abusing my system, just a big want to have one LOL

Ever squeeze a blackhead and it comes out all squiggly? I get those but I keep pulling and pulling and it comes outta my face like dental floss.

They say that everyone dreams every time they sleep. We just don't remember most of them. And some people don't remember any. About 95 percent of our thinking in general is subconscious and we aren't even aware it's happening.

I’ve been dreaming about setting a line this year. With today’s prices, I guess you might call that backwards.

Never remember a dream unless wakened in the middle of it.
When I was working and had a particularly hard day I would dream of logging and wake up in the middle of a dream with cramps.

I know that occasionally I dream about situations and places I can't talk about. Sometimes Christine will say I was dreaming last night, twisting and tossing in bed, mumbling out load ... and I have to ask if I said anything. She always says nope just mumbling. We learned long ago not to try and wake me.

Keep a pad and pen on the nightstand and and when you wake write down the dream or dreams as they say we have up to 3 in a night. Do it right away if you remember anything as many times we don't and will forget. You can try to fecifer them if you know something about them.
