Well, I have been cruising along pretty well for several months now, without any major nightmares to speak of. However this has changed for me
recently and I am beginning to notice the start of a disturbing pattern again. Due to a condition I have with my health, it is not easy to jump out of
bed at night, which only adds to my fear when I wake up, or think I am awake. I don't want to gross anyone out with the details, but never-the-less
when I go to bed at night, 99 out of 100 times I stay in bed until it is time to get up in the morning. Anyway, this is not condusive to me shaking
off the fear when I wake up in the middle of the night.
I have been having little tiny nightmares, which I can't really recall. But as I said, this is a pattern that I have undergone before.
A few nights ago I was sleeping, and I woke up but was still in my dream. There was a figure shadowy figure standing next to my bed with his hand
outstretched. At least I sensed it was a male. And I had the feeling that I was supposed to hand him something. But then I started to come to my
senses of where I was and that there was some kind of super natural being in my bedroom. Needless to say my fear went from 0 to 10 in about half a
second. I withdrew me hand, before I could hand him whatever it was, and after a few seconds it was gone. I was scared and relieved, but was able to
force myself to go back to sleep almost immedietely.
A couple of things that I noticed in this incident,. I was handing him something square, like a hard cover book or a box. Also, I seemed to be in some
kind of trance while doing this, until I became aware. There was something passing strange that I noticed about the being. He was shadowy, but not
dark. His body and face were made of small points of light of various color and intensity. Like one of those tiled mosaics you see in the old Roman
homes. Thousands of small lights, dim, but enough that I could make out his figure and some features on his face and body. But it really scared me. I
felt like he had very ill intentions towards me.
Of course as I said I put myself right back to sleep. It was unnerving, but I have alot of experiences with nightmares, so I am grateful for that
atleast. Then last night.
I was dreaming about something to do with aliens. I don't remember exactly what except that they were in my home and it was scaring me. So I woke up,
at least I think I did. Now my closet doors are made of mirrors, which allows me to look into their reflection and see the living room. And last night
when I woke up I could see the aliens in my living room! I was terrified. It was around 4 am, and I kept trying to tell myself it wasn't real. I kept
rubbing my eyes and squinting, shaking my head trying to see what was in the living room. I don't have any nightlights or anything, so the light that
comes in is just from the street lights. This lasted a few minutes and finally I closed my eyes and forced myself to believe I was hallucinating or
something and went back to sleep.
I sure hope this doesn't mean that I am going through a period of more nightmares. They are fun to write about in the daytimne, but at night they are
not fun. I guess if it happens again I will turn the light on and snap a picture.
