I don't understand why people dream. When they're asleep, I mean. It all seems rather pointless. There's the spiritual aspect (for people who are foolish enough to believe in that sort of thing), I suppose- that dreams give you "answers" to problems or questions. That's entirely ridiculous, of course. After all, I don't have any problems or questions- none that are major, anyway- and yet I still have the most irritating dreams about the most idiotic things.
Granted, it was only once. This time. But if possible, I'd like to prevent it from happening again. It was... unsettling.

... Hm. Dream prevention. I'll have to look into that.

You can avoid dreaming.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

...

Oh?

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

And how do you believe one can do that?

[suplexing.livejournal.com]

Some people say it's how your subconscious vents.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

My "subconscious" doesn't need to vent.

[suplexing.livejournal.com]

You never know. Maybe your body's telling you something that you're negecting.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No. I neglect nothing.

[suplexing.livejournal.com]

You'd be surprised.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You don't know what you're talking about.

Blah Blah bah, he talks too much, I know XD

It's a medical thing, not just my opinion. Understanding why you have bad dreams is one step in discovering how to avoid having them. When you sleep your brain goes through different stages. The stage in which you experience dreaming is called the REM stage. REM stands for Rapid Eye Movement because your eyes will move back and forth very quickly. During the night your brain will go through REM stage about every hour and a half. Each time you reach REM you will stay in this stage a little bit longer.

the most common things that can cause bad dreams are: Stress, Family problems, Abuse, Death of a loved one or friend, Illnesses, Scary movies and books, Medicationsad some foods.

If you are experiencing bad dreams, then here are a few suggestions that can help you avoid having Them. you can start by taking a look at your stress levels. If you see that you are under a lot of stress due to pressure at work, family problems or so forth then look for ways to reduce this stress.

If you have lost a loved one try talking about your feelings to someone. If you do not have a friend or loved one that you feel comfortable discussing your feelings with then make arrangements to see a professional. It can really make a difference in how you feel emotionally and it can help you get rid of the bad dreams.

Get a good routine going where you go to bed around the same time at night and get up around the same time. If you have poor sleeping habits it interferes with your sleep patterns and this can cause bad dreams.

She's not impressed. :|

None of those "causes" apply to me. Besides, I never said that I was having bad dreams- just irritating ones.

he didn't wanted to impress her, just give her a lot of information because he's like that XD

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Just let you know.

I still have the most irritating dreams about the most idiotic things.

Elaborate, please.

Pfft, I know, I'd be surprised if Hakuba ever tried to genuinely impress Azula. XD

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

That's none of your business.

[suplexing.livejournal.com]

Maybe not about your specific problems, but having gone through several national crisises, I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You don't in my case. And irritating dreams are just that- irritating. I would hardly consider them a problem.

[suplexing.livejournal.com]

The way you're talking about them, they seem like a problem. Recurring nightmares could be a sign of something bothering you.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

They're not nightmares. And nothing is bothering me.

[suplexing.livejournal.com]

Denying it isn't going to help. Even if they aren't nightmares, if they're recurring, something's up.

he didn't need to impress her, he had Akako ^_~

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

I thought that you wanted to get rid of them.

So you're saying that if he didn't have Akako, he'd want to impress Azula? ;D

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I do. And I don't know why you're using the plural- I only really had this particular dream once.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I also only had that specific dream once. And trust me, nothing's "up".

[suplexing.livejournal.com]

If you say so.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Of course I do.

Oh my, you discovered him!!! D:

[clockmaster.livejournal.com]

Well, excuse me . I don't know that much about your life, I just wanted to help.
