      Probably being a young Chinese woman being sexually harassed by a Korean grandpa. Who woke up after dreaming of being a black man reunited with his dog after a year in a combat zone. Who woke up after dreaming about….

    I started taking Valerian for sleep again and when I was double checking the side effects and interactions with my current meds I saw “extremely vivid dreams” and was like OK well since the clonidine I haven’t really had the terrifying nightmares anymore so it’ll probably keep that from happening and tbf what happened was I got eaten out by an illithid and I don’t actually consider that a bad dream so overall 9/10 they’re not perfect but they’re pretty great.

    Btw, anyone also having sometimes a not-really lucid dream they pick back up and continue all half year or so?

    Oh, and that one time where i got a tour (by a elf knight) throug a city surrounded by high ring walls, complex history and all. Then i woke up, got to potty. Then i continued in the same world, but outside the city.

    As a cis guy, I don’t think I’ve ever dreamt I was a woman. How common is this?

      I dream very often of being someone else. No limits on sex, sexuality or age. Not too long ago I dreamt I was a young, bisexual man with bear-like proportions, though the sexual relations were an afterthought in a highly weird story about survival.

      I am a middle aged woman, but shit it felt good in the morning to feel that strong.

      Well, I am cis, but I’ve been to a community or two that seem to be under impression that one dream = mtf (but not ftm for some reason), so I guess that must mean…

        Exactly, totally cis.

        Because I kiss other girls in those dreams.

        The most cis activity.

      I dream of being a variety of people all the time, sometimes more than one of them at once, maybe simultaneously as a bodiless observer. I’m often aware that I’m playing a role, but I can’t recall ever retaining the idea of my waking self. It’s like I accept who I am right now, but I sense the experience is transient.

      Hundred dreams, some as a woman, sone as a man, always straight according to my original sex. Means nothin except me being curious how’d I turn out if I were born woman. That, however, I’ll never know T-T ( Born & Raised not switched mid-drive)

    last night i dreamt i had a billionaire grandpa who could easily solve my problems. one problem that took over most of the dream was that flossing my teeth was gross and annoying, so he invested into the development of some weird kinda mouthwash that just burns away all the placque and bacteria and food residue inside your mouth but keeps your teeth and gums intact. there was also something like pokemon, but I don’t remember very well.

    You’re connected to someone by a time thread like in Your Name and you just ruined someone’s life.

    There’s an idea that all permutations of energy exist and there’s only one singular conscious mind inhabiting each life generally unaware there’s only one mind.

    Is OP a bot account? I don’t mind reposts or getting content from the old site, but it’s weird to post personal stuff like “I’m 20 and Mexican” without some sort of meta commentary on it.
