Catherine RussellYesterday 2 friends divulged that they only ever dream in pictures. No dialogue. This astonished me. But maybe it’s more common than I know. Do people speak in your dreams?
Sue Vickers-Thompson@CatherineRussell2 Loads of dialogue in mine but pictures as well. Last night I was dealing with trying to get a major culture change in Royal Mail, which I had been involved with in real life, but this time I was largely on my own. Hopeless task so I woke up rather annoyed! While I'm in them, my dreams are very detailed but I usually lose that on waking - not always - but the feelings evoked tend to stay with me - anyone else get that?
Tracy T Wilson@CatherineRussell2 @suevickersthompson Yes! I dream in a lot of detail—landscapes, modes of transportation, bright colors, pages and pages of dialogue. And although I’m aware of the richness of detail when I wake, it fades almost immediately, and I’m left with impressions, feelings, and settings.
@tracytwilson @suevickersthompson Can you read in your dreams?
@CatherineRussell2 @suevickersthompson I don’t know. Maybe? Curious now—I’ll try to find out. Sometimes I can direct them. Can you? And can you consciously change what you’re dreaming?
@tracytwilson @CatherineRussell2 I think so - certainly there were documents in last night's one. Also think I can direct it a bit to get out of sadness and sorrow etc but not totally. I find dreams fascinating - what your imagination can create!
