ok, i know i have acted stupid on this forum before but this is a serious question. no this isnt a "are dreams windows to the future" thread.
Have you ever noticed that while having a dream you always seem to wake at the best part of the dream. is there a chemical that your body releases? or is it just bad luck or something. i would really like to know.

You probably tend to think you always wake up at the exciting part of a dream because that’s when you remember your dream. Remember you dream every time you sleep even if you don't remember it.
That is unless you remember all your dreams...I don't remember mine unless I think about them right after I wake up, which usually only happens if something exciting in my dream just happened, and then I can usually remember what just happened; not much before. I also remember reading that you dream at a much faster rate then thing would happen, although I don’t remember how fast, which would mean that people dream of many things, including exciting things, while they sleep.

Ok, heres what I think, but it might be confusing.
It seems like you wake up at the best part because that is when you are about to wake up. You start to hear things from the real world and things become more clear. For example, you are about to wake up, and on TV there is a Arnold Schwartzinater(sp) Movie on. You start to dream about the things in the movie, like the gun fights or whatever. But since you are hearing the things in the real world, you start to wake up. I have no idea if that made any sense to anyone besides me, but thats what I think. Hope I helped you.

He was talking about, if you hear something while you’re dreaming, you often incorporate what you hear into your dream as something in your dream making that sound. Like when Stewie's parents were having sex, Stewie dreamt that he was on a rocking chair rocking back and forth.

I think sometimes you wake up at the best part of a dream becasue it is something you haven't experienced yet. Like when ever you have a dream where you die you ususally wake up right before you die because you don't know what its going to be like or how its going to feel.

As i learned in health class, Dreams only last about 5 minutes...which is about 5 minutes before you wake up. Naturally, when you dream, you are about to wake up. Usually, you dream about 5 minutes before you wake up the natural way; alarm clock, ur body says to wake up, etc. I sometimes think that supernatural causes make you dream before you wake up under all circumstances...like...its as if your body knows you're about to wake up by someone waking u up, a friend waking u up, etc...so u have a dream right before. anyway. yeah. i learned that your dreams are only like 5 or less minutes long which is why you remember them so well. Ppl usually think they have an all-night dream. not true. the rest of the time, when ur not dreaming, your body is an in almost-dead state. your REM (rapid-eye-movement, which is the number of times ur eyes move side to side in ur sleep) increases rapidly as your sleep becomes deeper. So basically, you're almost dead for up to 7 or 8 hours. awkward, but true. My teacher once referred to sleeping as being stoned: you enjoy it so much that you dont want to wake up, just as if you enjoy being stoned so much u dont want to be un-stoned, or u want to do it again lol. anyway, yeah, thats my 2 cents.
I personally like those dreams where u randomly fall of a random object to your death or to the ground of some sort....and when u hit the ground, your body has a reflex reaction and your body physically shakes as if it came in contact with the ground. those are kewl. Also...sometimes dreams are only like "flashes" of events. like you only see like 4 seconds of a part of a multiple dream sequence. except some other parts u see like up to a minute of it. thats why sometimes when you try to explain a dream to someone, you never quite know what u were doing in that locatoin or why or how you got there.

yet, you still kinda wake up. you wake up from your "sleep cycle," even if that means not physically opening your eyes...which is sometimes why u see different dreams in one night, ur right.

I'd like to bring up the topic of "lucid dreaming".
I haven't been to these forums in a VERY long time so I don't know how familiar any of you are with this topic. Anyway, as a quick refresher, lucid dreaming is just a term for being fully aware that you're dreaming and being completely in control of the dream. I had one of those dreams once, and it sparked my interest in dreaming. I was able to control my environment, but was unable to control the people around me. It was fairly simply to control where I wanted to be, and who was around me, but the people around me never moved. Unfortunately, I woke up before I could do any more "testing", and I've yet to have another dream quite like that. I'd also like to add that I've died in my dream before. I was killed by zerg-like aliens at the mall, and instead of being in first person, the point of view went into third person and I watched my body lay there until I woke up. Bizarre indeed. |

Bump'd.
Most of my dreams are "lucid dreams". I know that I am dreaming, and I always try to fly or like spit fire because I realize it's a dream but it never works. And to the dreams that incoporate things that are going on in real life around you, I once had a dream that someone was stabbing me around my nose, but I woke up soon after and realized it was just my mom touching my face because she had came home from work late that night but I was already asleep. Whoa run on sentence. |

People who can lucid dream rock. I wish I could do it. I really don't remember my dreams anymore, but I never remember a dream of me dying or falling, which is weird according to my friends, as they say they have all had them.
Guido, you would be a sucky refugee ![]() |

Tps I couldn't agree more with you. I am completely jealous of people who can/do lucid dream. I know that personally I have had maybe one or two lucid dreams, but I'm pretty sure being aware that I was dreaming just made me wake up. How unsatisfying. Anyway, dreaming is good sh*t. I wish I did more of it but unfortunetly I am a very deep sleeper myself, and concurring with someone's post I read not too long ago, I think that when you recall dreams when you wake up, it is because you were not totally asleep, or in a lighter sleep. Also I guess I can use that to answer the question at hand. Perhaps most people wake up during the best part of the dream is because; 1 they are in a lighter sleep, and 2 getting subconciously excited (or aroused) from a good part of a dream, forces them to wake up. Who knows for sure. I'd like to find out more about it if anyone finds any websites of experiments involving dreams and what not, let me know. Just as a side note, I've also heard that some people actually can have up to 200 dreams an average night of sleep, because they are infact accelerated, but I'm not certain on this idea.

People have many sleep cycles as they sleep at night. During the first few, there are usually no dreams. As you sleep longer and longer, the dreams are "imprinted" into your short term memory. As your body begins to wake up, it recognizes the last dream you had and erases the others from your short term memory. You will usually only remember the last dream you have at night.
There are exeptions to this, however, for example; not too long ago I woke up remembering three dreams I had that night. There are also situations where you dream that you are having a dream. (The dream in a dream Idea) When this happens, the brain keeps a dream going after the sleep cycle has ended. The old dream is incorporated with the new dream, usually because you dream of yourself falling asleep. When this happens, your brain usually denies this double dream from being imprinted into your short term memory. As I stated above, there may be exeptions to this. There are other dreams that I don't feel like getting into, such as "sleep walking". "Sleep walking" occurs when your brain relates a dream to an everyday activity and the body responds as if it were the natural thing to do. For example, Back when I was Five years old, I went sleep walking. I walked down the stairs into the main living room where I asked my mom when dinner was going to be ready. It was 11:30'ish PM. When I was Five, I would always take a nap before going downstairs for dinner. Apparently, when I went to bed that night, I had a dream about going downstairs for dinner, which is when my body "realized" that it was time for me to go downstairs for the daily routine. There are many other variations of dreams, which I don't feel like going into. |
