Sounds great mate. Many a world changing discussion was done over a beer.

Even Jesus chilled with his peeps over a drink or two before dying, so there must be something to it!

i wonder what it means when you hear bells.

Geesh, that was solved in Its a Wonderful Life....Everytime a bell rings an angel gets his wings

I had a sleep disorder three years ago, where I was having night terrors. I had a sleep study done...they freaked cause I would be in REM sleep, where you are not supposed to sbe able to move etc and I would sit up and freak....LOL Least I was an intersting sleep study.

I love my dreams most come true in someway, such as I dreamed what each of my grandbabies were and Mak looks just like the lil girl I dreamed about. Bub didn't survive, he was miscarried. Most of my good writing ideas were from dreams

Night terrors are amazingly scary... Tyler, my stepson suffered from those for some time. I don't get scared easily, if at all... but watching him run around the house, clawing at the walls, screaming and shouting... it was outright harrowing just to watch, can't imagine what he must have been experiencing.

my son had those briefly when he was six. he had a really nasty teacher and when i found out she was terrorizing the kids (just the boys for some odd reason) i ripped into her good, then i told the principal, who reprimanded her. just to be safe i had my son switched to another class where she couldn't get her claws on him. once he was removed, the night terrors stopped. but they were awful - we couldn't wake him and he would just shiver and say "i want my mommy" and i'd hold him and say "mommy's here", my heart sick with fear and when i found out the cause of his terrors, ANGER. the only thing that would wake him up would be washing his face with a hot wet washcloth. then he would cry but not remember anything, and want someone in the room with him 'til he fell asleep. people who abuse children are the absolute worst . oh, her rationale? he had it "too soft" and abusing him would "toughen him up" and "help him get through life". what a pig.

Not to hijack, but have you ever controlled your dreams? By that I mean a dream is going a certain way, perhaps into nightmare area and you redirect it. I learned how to while I was in therapy. Empowering and way cool all at the same time.
Dreams are fascinating to me.

Well I used to do that, sort of. I would think about something I wanted to dream about while I was falling asleep and when i was all the way asleep the dream took on the scenerio I was imagining. I used to make myself have x-files dreams where I was an agent with Mulder and Scully and it was FUN!!!!

Sheila, do/did you sit up in your sleep alot or was it only during the night terrors?

I sleep sitting up at least half the night..Almost everytime someone here gets up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, if they see me, I am asleep sitting up. I constantly wake up and my legs are completely asleep and know I've been sitting there indian style when that happens. I have also been known to sleep curled up in a ball with my legs underneath, hugging my legs. That really sucks because when ya wake up both your arms and legs are asleep and if you get ouf of bed ya fall on the floor and can't get up or use your arms to get off the floor

I'd like to "TOUGHEN HER UP" and "HELP HER GET THROUGH LIFE" a little bit... What a sick freak to do that to the little kids!!!!!!

Teh other night, I was awakened by a baby wimpering. Only problem, there should most definitely not be any babies in my abode. I lay there trying to figure this out for a bit, and then moved my leg over only to feel my cat sleeping at the foot of my bed. I listened more carefully, and sure enough, the cat was having a bad dream, I suppose, because he was making the most pathetic little wimpering sounds.

I hate it when that happens My doggie does that alot and makes little whimpering sounds and her legs move around a bit like shes running in her dream. I always feel sooo bad for her & go wake her up and cuddle with her.

LOL I bet that was confusing till you figured out what it was

Anybody else do silly stuff like that when they're half awake?

yesh.
i will hear the doorbell, or the phone ring. i'll check the call history and no call came through, so i know it didn't happen. i wonder what it means when you hear bells. interesting... (ponders this)

LOL I've heard the phone ring in my sleep too. I even pick up the phone in my sleep and wake up going "Hello? Hello? Anybody there?"

Oh, I did also beat someone up in a dream (no I am not violent ever, but he very very VERY much deserved this) Well in my dream I was stomping the guy into the ground and I woke up laying sideways on the bed, still kicking and flailing, and had kicked the lamp off the table (totally killed it) and overturned the table and everything else on it. Besides the damage, it was pretty funny!!!!
