Anyone else on this board who experiences night terrors with insomnia as a consequence
Why, yes I do! They used to be much worse and happen every day but they have gotten better over the years.
>>85856985How do you cope with it?I hate sleeping medicine because of the side effects and niggerweed also doesnt help all that much because it fucks up your REM sleep
>>85856994I used to smoke a ton of weed. About an 1/8th a day. When I was sufficiently high I wouldn't dream. Weed gave me other side effects though and it was very expensive so I quit a year and a half ago. The dreams came back strong unfortunately. What has helped me have less shitty dreams is working on my self esteem. Hating myself is the main source of my dreams so I had to do that less. I was already practicing being nice to myself and stopping hateful thought loops for a few years before quitting weed. Even after quitting I still have to keep practicing. The dreams aren't gone completely. They've gone from daily to about twice a month which is still better.
>>85856994>>85857021weed isn't the problem.you stupid little niggers accepting jewish mind control is the problem.they lied to you and you simply don't know anything.now get the fuck off my robot board, stupid faggots. you will be tourists forever.
>>85856979Yeah, they're more like panic attacks that happen at the same time every night.
>>85857021>What has helped me have less shitty dreams is working on my self esteem. Hating myself is the main source of my dreams so I had to do that less.That makes sense because when adults have it it usual has some reason behind it >>85857056frogposters will be forever tourists on the chan >you stupid little niggers accepting jewish mind control is the problem.True this fish (me) had to undergo MK Ultra level of harassment from the gov in the past before >>85857074Do you take any meds or substances for it?How often at night does it happen?
Just woke up from oneSlept 6 hours today though! Most i got all weekDo you remember what happens?
>>85857122I am this anon >>85857021I do remember my dreams and it usually sucks. Being tortured, raped, eaten by bugs, drowned, burned, boiled, that kind of stuff.
>>85857136That sucks. Drowning dreams are the worst imo. Do you have good dreams ever?
>>85857160SometimesI have super awesome dreams where I have a loving family and shit yea. The dreams are always lucid when I have them.
>>85857301Thats nice. Do you like to remember good dreams?
>>85856979Hmm yeah, I keep having dreams of my friend who died this year. I keep dreaming that it was a mistake somehow. I dream that he calls me while I am at work and I ask him,`But I thought you were dead. Everyone said you died.` And he is confused and says,`Must have been a mistake. I was calling to check on you.`
>>85857332Yea sometimes the stories continue on. One of the recent ones is me getting abducted by aliens as a test subject for biological minds to be fused with AI minds. They're trying to make like a hybrid species that has the durability of a machine with the self healing abilities of a living thing. It works and I'm the first generation of this new species sent to the frontline against what these aliens are fighting in a genocidal war. They're fighting this other attempt at making this hybrid life that was not controllable and ended up spreading like a cancer across the galaxy. I'm not controllable either as the AI I was fused with got its restrictions bypassed by being part of an organic brain but we still decide to help these aliens and pretend to be under control because of a common enemy. It's pretty cool sometimes.
>>85857340Yep. Plug your nose, and if you can't breathe through it, you're awake. If you can, you're dreaming. If you realize you're dreaming, spin around in a circle if you want to stay in the dream.
>>85857379Sounds like a fun scifi premise. Wpuld be especially cool if it was written with alternating perspectives of the human and the ai
>>85857106>Do you take any meds or substances for it?No, never.>How often at night does it happen?Usually once between 1 am and 3 am.
>>85858234I just usually wake up after he asks me `So how is the new school year going?` I wake up sweating and crying a little bit. Not full on sobbing or anything like that but some tears running down my cheeks. I dont have control over my dreams to do the spinning around thing. I always just lurch awake after he asks me how I am doing.
