Discussion I had a horrible rash for months. I dreamt about the cause before I knew what it was.
So I had been suffering from an AWFUL rash from August til October. It was unbearably itchy and covered mostly my entire body. I was absolutely miserable. People told me hives so that’s what I thought it was. But antihistamines didn’t help.
In September I had this dream. I was in bed and was waking up in a room I didn’t recognize, on a high level floor. I looked down and noticed something covering the sheets- opaque larvae/worm looking things. You could see through them. Inside them was something blueish/purple. In the dream I KNEW it was my own blood. I started panicking, smashing all of the larvae to kill them.
I had no idea what this dream meant until the other day, when I discovered a tick embedded into my foot. I got it out and started researching tick rashes. I came across some articles about lone star tick larvae (common where I live) rashes- and suddenly it clicked for me- THAT was what I had been suffering from all this time. The photos looked identical to my rash.
After that, the itchiness and rash began to go away.
I find it absolutely fascinating that my subconscious brain was able to know what my body was going through- before I consciously could figure it out.
Has anybody had a similar dream experience???

Short Dream A dream about Jesus
I had this dream on October 11, around 5AM in the morning, so I thought I share with you all about this.
An hour ago, I opened up checking messages after I had just dealt with my grandmother from her early morning to use the bathroom. Doom-scrolling, I began to felt sleepy again and so on, I fell sleep.
In my heart while I was asleep, I felt unworthy, sinful, and like I was unworthy of being saved by Lord. The dream shifts into ransacking a temple, similar to the raid of Troy, but we were told to worship an idol at the left side. But I had not realise that there was no imagery at the altar which represents the Lord at the right. One person declared openly he will not worship the idol but the Lord himself above, his name was Samuel in that dream (God has heard). Similar to the events of Daniel and the Furnace, the other soldiers heard, and drew us out of the temple to be burned alive. I told myself, even if the Lord does not save me, I would have still worshiped God and showed that we did not bow down to his idols. We sat in front of the soldiers, and I heard Samuel beside me looked behind him on a wall, saying, “I shall destroy the son of man”. I asked myself, “Destroy? Isn’t the son of man, Jesus? Why would you destroy the son of man?”
As I looked behind me, I was surprised there was a crucifix. Then the crucifix manifested itself into two versions of Jesus. The crucified version, and the resurrected version. Both sat down beside me. I had doubts at first, because I did not take imagery lightly and yet, in that dream, as if it told me that I shouldn’t take it too seriously and so I did. The resurrected version of Jesus briefly looked at me then forward, holding my right hand. The crucified version of Jesus, rested his head on my back that I could feel the weight of his head and held my left hand, and I could not see his face. The textures of each hands were vastly different, the crucified version had a firm and rough yet grounding grasp on my left, while the resurrected version held a gentle grasp of my right.
Overwhelmed with emotion, I broke down to tears. As if the Lord himself was telling me, He has heard my heart and that He always cares deeply about me. I could not believe it myself, because to be sitting at two versions of Jesus, both crucified and resurrected version feels like an honor. A deep sense of trust from the Lord. Then I slowly woke up, eyes full of tears as if my heart was weary and broken to a profound degree of peace and warmth

Long Dream Have you ever had a dream that felt more real than reality?
Last night, I was thinking about how strange dreams can be. Sometimes we experience places we've never visited, meet people we haven't seen in years, or feel emotions that stay with us even after we wake up.
What's really fascinating is how a dream can feel completely real while it's happening, but become blurry just minutes after waking up.
I'm curious about other people's experiences.

I Keep Dreaming About My Mom Who Passed Away 💔
My mom passed away in 2025, and even now, I still struggle to fully process what happened.
Her death was so sudden. Just two days before she passed away, she was sitting with me, talking to me, and we were having tea together. Everything felt normal. I had no idea that in just two days, she would be gone forever.
When she was in the hospital, I was there with her during her final moments. She was losing consciousness, and I kept talking to her. Watching my mom in that condition was the worst moment of my life. A few hours later, she was gone.
I was in complete shock. I couldn't cry, speak, or even understand what had just happened. I felt numb, as if my mind couldn't accept the reality of losing her.
While walking out of the hospital, I suddenly heard my mom's voice calling my name. It was exactly how she used to call me, with the same tone and the same familiar sound. I immediately turned around, but nobody was there. Maybe it was my mind playing back her voice because I was in so much shock, but that moment has stayed with me.
For the next two days, I couldn't sleep properly. I cried and sobbed so much. Then, on the third day, I finally fell asleep, and I had a dream about my mom.
This dream was unlike any other dream I had ever experienced.
In the dream, my mom came home as if nothing had happened. She sat on the couch and asked me to give her something to eat because she was hungry and thirsty.
But the strange thing was that I KNEW she was gone. Even though she was sitting right in front of me, I was fully aware that my mom had passed away.
I told her, "Mom, you're no more. You've passed away. We've already completed your funeral."
She looked shocked and started crying. She asked me how it had happened, and I explained everything to her. I even told her that we had buried her body, so she didn't have a body anymore and couldn't eat or drink anything.
We kept talking, and our conversation felt so real and logical. It wasn't like my usual dreams, where things happen randomly and I don't question anything. In this dream, I was completely aware of reality, and somehow, I was having a conversation with my mom about her own death.
She cried, and I cried too. She asked me to take care of myself, my siblings, and my dad.
Even though I knew she wasn't supposed to be there, I was able to talk to her one more time.
After that, I started dreaming about my mom very frequently. Most of those dreams were different from the first one. In them, I didn't know she had passed away. She was simply there, living her life, talking to me, and being my mom again.
And honestly, I loved those dreams.
They became something I looked forward to. I knew they weren't real in the way my waking life was real, but they gave me a chance to see her face, hear her voice, and spend time with her again. For a little while, I could experience what it felt like to have my mom around.
Sometimes, I would wake up and feel sad because I knew I couldn't see her anymore. But I was also grateful that I had gotten to see her in my dreams.
Lately, though, I've been dreaming about her less and less.
And I don't know why, but it hurts.
I miss her so much. I wish I could keep seeing her in my dreams. I wish I could talk to her, sit with her, listen to her voice, and tell her all the things I still want to tell her.
I know dreams are dreams, and I don't know what they mean. Maybe my mind was trying to process the shock and grief. Maybe it was just my heart trying to find a way to be with her again.
But those dreams felt so precious to me, especially in the beginning, when I couldn't accept that she was really gone.
I don't know if I'm looking for an explanation or just hoping to hear from people who understand this feeling.
I just miss my mom. And sometimes, dreaming about her is the closest thing I have to seeing her again. ❤️

Why do some people have extremely vivid dreams while others barely dream at all?
I’ve always wondered why some people seem to have incredibly vivid, detailed dreams, sometimes with realistic conversations, places, people and emotions, while other people say they rarely dream or only experience vague fragments.
Mine seem so intense i confuse it with real life.

Discussion Succubus or Night Hag (Sleep Paralysis) NSFW
Just like title says so as you can see in above picture there it is the succubus also offspring of Lilith Her name is Lilim btw i have been interested in lot of mythologies especially about serpents and dragons i have been always fascinated to learn about this mythological creatures and i guess lot of you guys are interested too so I'll share my experience regarding sleep paralysis....
In this particular experience it was kinda spicy i can say so as usual i was sleeping and suddenly i woke up since my throat was dry so i woke up to drink some water after drinking water i couldn't sleep. I stayed awake for a while until it was 2:45 am yet again this time i always seem to dragged into that world again but this time it was my house. I was sleeping while i covered myself in blanket it was winter btw so yeah to get warmth i covered myself with it so after trying to sleep again this time i definitely knew or maybe i should say i sensed it that im going to enter deep sleep as i entered it suddenly my chest felt heavy as if someone was sitting on my chest. So while i was still struggling to wake myself up than i suddenly heard an laugh an seductive one at that i could sense her and i even saw her shadow, she had long tongue just like Lilim but i couldn't see the face but yeah i saw its shadow after sometime she was looking right on my face she was laughing and suddenly i felt something watery and guess what she was drooling over my face at first i thought it might be something but i saw it she was drooling and laughing after that she started to touch my private part and was laughing seductive more loudly she even whispered something but i couldn't hear it and thats it, after sometime i got free and could move my body again but one thing is for sure. She was touching my private part intensely with her hands idk if it was night hag who did it or succubus but definitely this experience was unique AF thats it for this one (Oh btw she even had claws and even little wings on her back) what do y'all think about it? And have you experienced something like this?

Dream Art Literally Just Woke Up From a Nightmare, Genuinely Why is the Architecture So Weird
I've had these kinds of nightmares since I was little: Trying to find my house but I can't find it no matter what.
Picture this: in the middle of the night, midnight, in a sub-urbs like place, has a little bit of Californian-inspired architecture (I don't live remotely close to CA). You're for whatever reason an adult female short dressed in her pyjamas and walking on a neighbourhood road barefoot. You're trying to find your house but you can't. Your GPS on your phone keeps bringing you to the wrong address and you stop here. You can't read the numbers but it's not your house. This place doesn't even resemble where you actually live at all, you're just trying to find a house that says "25" written on it. The building in front of you is weird, it has black checkers on it, is it bricks or what? Not sure but it's really weird and close to the actual house you presume. It's connected somehow by a small sliver at the top but in between that is a black fence and some grass from the small hill it stands on. In the shadow emerges a large brown haired man in a dark blue T-Shirt that looks like it just barely fits him so on first glance it's fine. He's approaching you and you get a weird vibe from him and move on towards the left to do another swoop of the neighbourhood, in the dark, in the loop.
The dream ends.
I genuinely just woke up from this dream and drew this immediately. Dream happened 30 mins ago and immediately started drawing. I love how I typically draw really cutesy animal stuff but you can tell it's a dream in which I saw stuff since it's as realistic as I can get it.
Also does anyone elses' dreams look like it's Ai generated? 😭 I just find it so funny because my brain is generating these horrible looking places and it's so inconsistent lmao.
~ Please do not steal/copy/trace/feed my art to Ai, thanks! ~ 🩵

My end of world dreams I’ve had in the last year or so
I didnt know who to tell about these dreams. They feel so real and they seem significant .I’ve had recurring dreams that include mass chaos and bloodshed and societal collapse,aliens,massive flooding,zombies,asteroids,giants, mass power outages that last a unknown amount of time, a physical darkness that causes you to gnash your teeth ,rogue animals,dinosaurs coming back,red sun that burns you so bad,witches,werewolves and every horror creature you can think of. The most recent one was the dinosaur one which reminds me of the movie called “End of Oak Street”. That’s pretty much exactly what happened. For all of these dreams the scenarios happened spontaneously. Can someone tell me if they’ve had similar dreams and what they mean .

Nightmare Dreamt I witnessed a horse being sacrificed
I have vivid dreams regularly, but this one had me being forced to wake.
There were men in robes painting a horse with text (I couldn’t read it) across the horses side.
I remember vividly the horse was terrified. If it was a movie, there would have been a close up of the eye in fear. I can’t recall if I actually dreamt this imagery or remembered it like this after I woke, but I remember feeling the horse’s fear so vicariously.
The men in robes sacrificed the horse and continued to paint white and then text over the body as it was still standing.
Short but incredibly vivid.
I’m usually pretty good about interpretation but this one has me all day asking wtf.

Question Do you feel pain in your dreams similarly to real life? And if not, is the feeling substitited by a different one?
Just like the title says, I've always been curious how it is for other people. For me it is replaced by a sensation like I'm falling or being tickled which is also unpleasant but at least not really painful.

Recurring Dream Recurring dream about not being able to find something to wear.
TLDR: Have had two dreams now where I can’t find something to wear for a specific event, what do you think it means?
So a few days ago I had this dream that I was supposed to meet my boyfriend’s whole family and he told me to wear something nice but also casual. When I went to go to my closet the outfit I had thought of had disappeared and whenever I thought of something else to wear it would just disappear. Then suddenly everything started to vanish from my wardrobe quicker and quicker. I resorted to borrowing a friend’s clothes in the dream but when I picked something out it either disappeared or they said I wasn’t allowed to borrow that specific thing. While all of this was happening my boyfriend was texting me, 1 hour, 45 min, etc basically counting down the time until dinner. I ended up wearing a pink tutu and orange sweater I had borrowed from my boyfriend to the dinner and was at the head of the table while his whole family looked at me wearing this ridiculous outfit. That was the end of the first dream.
The second dream was different but had very similar themes, so I’m not sure if it counts as recurring. But in the second dream I just had last night, I was going back to my old job and was trying to find something to wear for my first day back. This time I was looking for something to buy at a store though. I looked at the time and I had about 45 minutes until I had to be at the job so I had some time all I needed was a black t-shirt or long sleeve shirt. I couldn’t find one anywhere, in the store I could only find black tank tops and whenever I saw one from afar and walked over it had disappeared. Then I left the store went to my home where I knew I had black shirts but again they were all gone. Then I resorted to going to a house where I was apparently cat sitting at in the dream and tried to see if the woman who lived there had anything but she only had black tank tops. I looked at my clock again and I was now a half hour late to my first day. I finally give up and wear the black tank top even though that kind of shirt isn’t allowed at work but I had nothing else black. So I went to work but at work this time everyone was so busy they didn’t even notice I wasn’t wearing the right uniform or that I was late.

Question Why do we sometimes dream about things we have absolutely no clue about, only to find out later that they're actually true?
Just like the maggot thing I posted about last time, I've had a few dreams that still make me wonder how my brain even came up with them.
I once had a nightmare about my mom sleeping with my uncle (my dad's brother). When I woke up, I was so disgusted and confused about why I'd even dream about something like that.
Years later, I actually caught my mom having an affair with our housekeeper. The thing is, I think I might have had that dream while the affair was already going on, even though I only found out about it years later. Our housekeeper had been living with us since I was a toddler, so I think the affair had been going on for a long time before I caught them. What's crazy is that I had absolutely no clue anything was happening when I had that dream.
I also once dreamt that one of my friends wasn't the biological daughter of the man she called her father. It was such a random thing to dream about, but later on, I found out that she and her father had different surnames, and she was using her biological father's surname.
It's honestly so weird to think about how I dreamt about these things without consciously knowing anything about them.
How does this even happen?

Long Dream I had a dream about my dad cheating on my mom , and it turned out to be real
So one night I had this dream that my dad was with some lady and he was cheating on my mom , and I woke up with a very very strong feeling of that being true . I told my bf and we just laughed it off , but u couldn't bury my feelings. So when we went to shower , I just checked his phone and bruh , there were video calls between him and one lady late night everyday , and for hours , but chat history was deleted .
I just linked his phone on my laptop and than all of it became clear , he was sending her love related memes and I miss u type of post , and also he asked her whether she liked the necklace he bought her ... And he used to delete those text within 5 mins .
My mom doesn't understand technology that much , so I showed her my laptop opening my dad's whatsapp that see ,mom because of wifi , my laptop got connected with dads WhatsApp by itself and i left it open there and went to grab some food , she saw some messages.
I don't know what happened after that but for a month the atmosphere of my house was tensed but later everything became normal .
I still hate my dad but I don't think I can push my mom to make any decisions for her life . So I'm just existing.

Short Dream Dream About Killing Someone (Found In Notes App Aug. 10, 2026)
I had a dream that I lived in a society where killing someone was a common punishment, I don’t remember the full story as to what happened but I was in a restaurant I bought food for this random guy and we were eating together, I stepped away and he ate my entire plate, and drank my drink. I got furious because he planned to dine and dash and ran to the hostess, a guy I recognized, me, him, and another girl who I recognized as one of my friends went up to the guy and started cutting his face, the horrid part was it was so vivid and realistic I was feeling me cutting this guys face, and stabbing him, at one point the first guy I had ran up slice deep into his face, causing the dudes face to basically rip open and you could see the muscles in his face.
At some point I fast forwarded to later and examined my clothes all bloodied up, the feel of the blood was sticky and realistic.

Long Dream Just a strange dream I once had .
October 5-6 Sun-Mon 2025
So I was fighting legendary pokemon like it was monster hunter and I think some monsters from monster hunter even joined the fight, I saw khezu and the whole battle was intense I was blocking, rolling, slashing and keep in mind I had a sword and shield so you know I was balling that battle and I think I fainted ONCE! I saw Groudon when I got up and I even equipped the ice element SnS, after that a whole ass building with a Pokemon center (the one you get the plushies) just came out if nowhere and I even met a guy who was sitting at a table with the Pokemon XYZ figures for a Pokemon dual like for the TCG games but I said that I lost my figures so I said bye to the man and he waited until someone else wanted to accept the dual.
The Pokemon center has a squirrel statue, it had yellow lights like you were at a Macy’s and it looked like you were in a calm liminal space but it had people this time, plushies left and right, even members from the Chinese Lion Dance Association were shopping.
Then when I walked out of the center there was a full on ANIME CONVENTION with cosplayers and stuff. The convention was outside in this round park with a tower you can go up with an elevator that has figures such as pacific rim jaegers, Godzilla merch, anime and other shirts, and the line was a bit long but not too long and after they payed their items they go back down to the convention, I think I saw a minus one Godzilla statue when the convention was happening. I also think the convention was inside like it’s in a mall which is why, same as the Poke Center, you had the Macy’s mall like center that are in these shades where it’s a small shopping area and a door you could exit, like a gas station mix with an inside plaza. After that it turned into a Megamind Prequel.!Megamind is in his teen years now, but this time, MetroMan and megamind are like pals but not friends, and somehow Megamind pulled out a Dr Seuss lookin horn machine for flowers, idk why but that was the plot for some reason.

Short Dream I Got Shot & "Lived" Through Death + Extra Dream Of Destruction
Alright, so this dream I had about a year ago to date that I wanted to share because it’s a dream that really stuck with me. I typed it in my notes so I’ll put it here:
I was roaming in this convenience store feeling a bit down, just browsing. Then suddenly, I feel hands grab me from behind and onto my shoulders, slowly guiding me towards a different part of the store. As this was happening, I bumped into a lady that was acting funny but nice–can’t exactly remember what she said to me though. Then, I come to a stop in front of the staff member and I see a mirror. The person holding me points a gun to my head, using me as a hostage to interrogate the staff member for something. Then, I closed my eyes and started to very reluctantly come to terms that this is my end as my brain went into a turmoil of decisions that would likely end up with me being shot no matter what I attempted–a plan to somehow knock the gun from this man’s hand, to book it/break free some way, or to beg for release. If I remember correctly, I mumbled that I didn’t want to die. Then, bam–I hear the trigger and the sound of the boom from the force of the bullet before I fell limp. My vision was blurry and fuzzy, I couldn’t move or speak, nothing but lie there staring at my own paralyzed form. I started feeling fear of what’s next after death as my vision started fading and the last thing I saw was myself curled up–my arms like a shrimp and my legs like doggy-paddling position while it slowly yet quickly faded to black. I could feel my consciousness slipping, almost like I was about to be transferred over to another entity or thing, acknowledging real life events and people, then visualizing what resembled stars but was very faint. At the same time, about a few seconds before I slipped away, feeling my eyes rolling back into my head despite already seeing black–I was aware of the extent of a bullet to the head being near impossible to recover from, noting that I wasn’t being helped as I heard muffled screams. I felt helpless and disappointed before I accepted and gave into death. I then "woke up" once I finally felt my consciousness leave as if I had fell asleep. Everything was in my own set of eyes instead of third person, which is unusual for me.
Also wanted to note that I fell into a false reality loop about several times, attempting to recall this dream down but never got to it in any of those false awakenings.
Bonus Dream (had a month ago):
I was with my mother and sister, when suddenly it was brought to our attention at the window that an explosion started downtown, sparks everywhere and the sky darkened to an orange color. I was just shocked as it began to only get worse, and my mother staring in shock as well as it seemed to be spreading closer to us. It went from more explosions and fire to a strange outline on the buildings as if we were in a video game. I just had to accept my fate and said out loud "We’re about to die!" The world outside the window began to deteriorate like some game in a matrix system and all objects became black with a green outline until it reached me and I woke up again in another dream.
I’ve been having pretty recurring dreams (once every month or other month-ish) where I "live through" death for about a year now. If anyone found this one interesting I’d love to share more of them.

Discussion Strange dream of doomsday II NSFW
A little update on this dream of doomsday. I have found myself in a very strange chapter of my life. This is by far the lowest point of my life without going into too much detail. But I have found myself in temporary accommodation in the same town that I dreamed of in my doomsday dream.
I see the swans on the river day after day and can’t stop thinking about how it rained blood and the pure swans had dissolved once tainted. They had flowed down stream, but stayed with me in memory.
Life is uniform but manifold. I’m a huge dreamer. I love vivid dreams that make me question my reality and some dreams have gave me a whole different perspective on life, it’s why I write.
I had a dream here of my Papa during a dark day where he came in the room and had said to me “stop this \\\\\ your dad needs you.”I woke up in a cold sweat. It had all felt so real. Was he really there? The way I see it, in a way, he most definitely was. I was glad to see him. He seemed at peace. He could be cruel, but he said it clearly without anger in my dream. I feel compelled to visit his grave at some point and thank him.
