I mean i just have to kill myself and hope it’s really just a dream. I would like a quit menu
Computer! Arch.
I just don’t dream… anything. I remember having dreams as a kid, and I remember what it felt like waking up, knowing I’d had a dream, but forgetting it. But anymore, I just don’t have any dreams anymore.
Hmm do you perhaps watch some streams or listen to podcast before sleep ( or even during sleep technicaly speaking ) ,beacuse i also dont dream when i do this.
But i on the other hand also dream vwry vividly and intensly when i think about stuff before sleep ( whatewer it is , book idea , aliens, power fantasy about conquest of russia, imagining the layout of pipes around my house ).
You might have sleep apnoea. If you also happen to not really feel rested in the morning. I know people that haven’t had it diagnosed for decades and it turned their life around and they also finally dreamed again. As a “byproduct” of not bearly dying every night but resting.
IF there is a pathological reason. Can also just be you don’t stand up shortly after your last REM-sleep and go into deep or light again. Might wanna just check with some smartwatch or just an alarm mid-sleep to check if you then remember stuff.
Eat more bananas !
Idk, i remember reading that banana makes your dream more lucid.
Sugar makes me dream.
Huh…
I share a similar experience to the person you replied to, but recently I’ve been doing the “wake up knowing you had a dream but can’t remember it” thing again, and I’ve also been eating more bananas recently.
Coincidence?!
You probably have dreams but are not aware because you do not wake up during a dream anymore. Maybe your sleep habits changed. You can remember dreaming only if you wake up during REM sleep. I know it is not possible probably, but if you have someone watch you while you are sleeping and wake you up a few seconds after they see your eyes moving, you’d probably remember your dream.
One day, he’s going to try to log out, and the logout button will be missing.
Then the only way he’ll be able to wake up is by beating all 100 floors of his dream. But if he dies in the dream, he dies in real life.
It will definitely happen if someone tells him that :)

Colon Q exclamation point? 6 keystrokes to leave? Sheesh.
If you wrote your dream to disk beforehand,

If we’re not counting the shift key, ZZ to quit is only 2!
My nightmares largely stopped after being awake tired af and terrified of sleeping, when I said “damn you nightmares, you can’t scare me into sleep deprivation! I’m coming in there and I’m gonna fight back”, and then went right back to sleep. I don’t know what nightmare I had that drove me to get angry at my nightmares, I didn’t even have a plan to fight back. But that’s when it stopped, when I stopped being afraid of them.
Maybe nightmares are what happen when you fall asleep scared.
I just kinda open my eyes and that’s how I escape
for me that’s when the nightmare begins
Keep opening your eyes until you escape
You’ve heard of sleep paralysis?
Some of us get that dream effect (eyes open, dream reality overlaid over real reality) but without paralysis.
Opening your eyes? They’re already open and the dream is running
Getting out of bed? Touch hallucinations may become part of it
Usually turning on a light gets me out. That or time
That’s how my “I’m stuck in my own bed and can’t move or talk” nightmare usually begins.
I can’t really put it into words but I just randomly (?) have this thought of “certainly not” and have the feeling of “this has got to be a bad dream… Oh wait, it’s actually a bad dream, why am I still here at all”.
I just don’t always manage to.
Gotta type “gg” first or you’re BMing the Sandman.

That kind of sounds like a strategy to trigger lucid dreaming. I’ve heard that if you envision a specific thing while falling asleep, like for example the StarCraft menu screen, then it will appear somewhere in your dream. When it does, it’s supposed to sort of jostle you into consciousness but not wake you up.
It seems that what this person’s friend did with his free will in dream land is nope right out of there. He could have turned that nightmare into something awesome though!
Even if you are aware you are in a dream it can be difficult to control it, at least in my experience. More like I wake up on a roller coaster but I’m not sure if its a fun one or a scary one yet, but I can choose to stay and see how it goes.
The second I realise I’m dreaming I wake up.
I think it’s because the second I am some level of conscious the deep rooted anxiety starts again and jolts me up 🙂
At least you don’t go through a series of false awakenings when it happens. Those are generally not the most fun, since at best they ruin lucid dreams (it’s sort of a way for your mind to go back to sleep, and typically resets your awareness of being in a dream), and at worst it fucks with your sense of reality big time.
That’s why I don’t nap anymore… I lucid dream sometimes, but usually not with naps. Those are just hyper realistic emotion bombs with full physical sensation.
So one day I was having one of my awful nap dreams, and it was super negative, so I decided to wake up. So I did. And then I realized I was still sleeping, and tried again… Dozens and dozens of times, every trick I could think of. I could feel my actual body unable to move (thanks sleep paralysis!), and I kept cycling back to dreaming, starting the whole thing over again.
Nothing scary than real life.
You should try flying instead.
Try spinning around in place in the dream! Sometimes it can help keep me dreaming cause I focus on my dream body and not my asleep body
Lost and ragequit so many times that he related anguish to quitting out through the menu xD
