There's been a lot of uncertainty in the world economy since the big crash of 2008. These feelings of uncertainty have left many people with bad dreams and sleepless nights. You are probably not alone.

Don't take acid before you go to bed

mannn ): i had 1 hr of sleep and i had a dream where i woke up with a tarantula and it was in a ball like dead i put outside my room and it kinda crawled a bit but it was injured, and then i was told to kill it so i threw a shoe at it and it tryed to bite me but i was in a wake sleep and it felt as if my covers protected me from my bite

[airhead]

Lay off the "uhm uhm " max, stick to trees haha.
hah i had those nights before. Just smoke before you go to bed.

[ronmcdon]

it's probably stress/anxiety related.

if 'astral projection' experiences (or 'out-of-body' experiences) are involved,
then it's likely that has been going on for some time.
Out-of-body experiences are not to confused with hallucinations and delusions, totally different.

The important thing to look out for is if you feel you may fit the criteria for 'depersonalization disorder'.
Check out the Wiki link I provided.
I would consider seeking help if that might be the case, especially if it's impeding on your social or work life, or just causing you a lot of distress.

i do think its stress or anxiety related, and i kinda skimmed through the wiki. i have had a panic attack recently but idk it was just super random. The out of body stuff, well ill explain a bit further, when i tried sleeping, i kept getting wierd random feelings like i was being attacked and i when i tried sleeoping i was feeling a little paranoid. i started sweating like crazy, anyway i kept trying to sleep but i couldnt, and then around 3-4 i slept about 30mins but thats in total. Aha i kept waking up every 5 mins checking if i was still in bed (i felt like i was leaving my body wierd dreams, anyway at one point i was asleep for about 10mins and i was floating around in my dream and i heard someone knock on a door or something and someone said dont answer and wake up, so i woke up and didnt try sleeping till 7 am got an hr of sleep had a wierd dream idk man but all those thoughts kinda dissapeared

edit: i think what i was feeling would be more of a delusion

[Biggamehit]

Bro just drink some Tussin and you will be straight.

[CleanAndLegit]

every option if it keeps happening

[nismo 240sx]

the thing is i wasnt tired whatsoever and yeah i didnt see my self so thats why i figured it was a delusion hallucination but idk what would cause it and why i would be soo paranoid!

[Sumslapper]

drink some nyquil that will knock you out

[BustedS13]

personally, whenever i take nyquil or tylenol pm, my dreams are fucking horrifying.

[speeddream]

its probably due to all those chemicals you use to clean carpets foo. They are getting to you.

[CleanAndLegit]

^^^ ahahaha nah man i hardly use any chemicals that we could breath in lol

yea, i have had sleeping issues my whole life, i've tried a bunch of different sleeping pills and they all give me fucking trippy ass dreams. I already have weird dreams naturally though.

Running/working out before going to sleep helps me sleep more soundly with less dreams. Smoking the ganj helps too. Don't drink red wine before sleeping, the iron supposedly creates strange dreams.

On a different note, i have dreams about driving ALL THE TIME. Different cars and they are feel like they should, like a Ferrari 250 GTO that felt powerful and rev happy with a communicative suspension and a heavy, precise shifter. Automatic 1940 merc hot rod with tall gearing, which felt slow but a good highway cruiser. 4cyl WWII jeep. Of course S chassis too. ETC. Very realistic dreams.

[airhead]

That out of body experience is true had that happen to me 2 times I had my reasons why that happen, I cant discuss it here.
scary shii like sleep,dream, then realize your dreaming, then tell your self to wake up in your dream but you cant cuz ur body feels paralized for a couple a sec.
They say when this happends is when you have a demon on top of your chest haha.
Sleep paralysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Then again i always had sleeping problems.

[airhead]

Take vitamin B6 250mg or 5-HTP before bed and tell me what happens in the morning >.<

Max, your always trippin out lol i remember that time in your garage we had to give you a banana hahahah

[demonspeed]

In order to project yourself, you have to have family members that do it. Its very random to just 'learn' it and even more random for it to happen with no formal training. OP, when you 'project' and you hear things, do you know who is talking? Heres a tip...when you are dreaming or projecting, try to find something in your dream that will make you know youre dreaming...lack of gravity is a prime example. Once you realize youre dreaming, you make the rules. Yes, i take this shit seriously lol!

[airhead]

^inception?
Make sure you put it next to your bed so youll know.

ohh you can buy the whole kit so you know for sure your not dreaming

well i actually heard myself or some form of me telling me to wake up sounded like i think i sound, and i was floating so i knew i was dreaming, but the 2nd dream was what tripped me out even more i wwoke up in my dream and there was a tarantula in my bed curled into a ball looked dead i picked iot up and i put it outside i was told to kill it by my family members, then i tried and itzipped at me lightning fast and when it bit me i was inbetween being really awake and asleep cause the bite was felt but my covers protected me ,


jose nah man i wasnt doing nada doode just posted was gonna sleep and couldnt, and i was listening to kaskade too lol i was tripping out aha the lyrics made it worse

[lawrenceyang]

melatonin will solve all those problems

[az_240]

Melatonin can be hit or miss for some people, Nyquil is bad for the liver and as mentioned can make the dreams even worse... not to mention it tastes like shit.... Marijuana is great if you don't want to dream at all but it's still hard to get a good nights sleep and can cause a groggy feeling in the morning. I've had problems sleeping for years and have tried many different pills (both prescription and OTC) but I've recently discovered an all natural over the counter pill by Nature Made called "Sleep"

First night taking it didn't do a whole lot but took it again the next night and to my surprise I was OUT. Woke up feeling refreshed too.

Have been using it ever since without any complaints.

anxiety attacks can be very random, that is one of the attributes of an anxiety attack. I think the thing to look out for is whether or not it's chronic. If it's occurring often, then you ought to get medical help. (think of getting into one when driving, that could be dangerous). Anxiety attacks are also one of the more common symptoms that correlate with depersonalization disorder (if that is indeed what you have)

Otherwise, one of the best ways to deal with anxiety is just start to exercise more. Meditation can help if it works for you.

All else fails, I would suggest talking to your clinician about it. I think they may prescribe you SSRI's, which have a calming effect.

I don't think you're delusional at all (based on what I've read).
Being delusional is like coming up with some really waky ideas, and being entirely convinced they are true.
I.E. You are convinced that you are Jesus Christ.

What you may be getting at is 'hallucinations'
That is like your sensory organs are sensing things that aren't there, but you are convinced that it is.
I.E. You are convinced that you see, hear, smell, touch Jesus.

The very fact that you suspect there is something not quite right about your astral projections / out-of-body experiences goes to show you are neither delusional or hallucinating.
The term 'reality testing' is usually a way to test yourself whether you are in a dream or not.
Ppl who cannot pass this test are usually in trouble of something a whole lot worse (unless it's induced by some physiological, including drug effect).

But don't take my word for it, if you're suffering bad enough I was so go see a professional.
I would also HIGHLY discourage you from self-medicating, esp if the advice isn't given from ppl with any education/training in medicine.
