Thread: Nightmares enjoyable?

Am I the only one here who enjoys nightmares. I can't tell if I'm an adrenaline junkie or darkminded because I always think about death and I day dream about murdering people around me and when I have sleep paralysis and i hear/feel demons I savor the hell out of it but I also like going to "haunted places" alone (other people distract you from the silence) once did a ouiji board trying to summon a demon in a grave yard (dont try nothing will happen its all bs) and 80 percent of my dreams are me being murdered or me murdering. When People say their nightmare scared them I just imagine them being huge pussies and in waking life I constantly imagine there being killers around my general area all that said : I'm normal? Anyone else feel this way? For real nobody finds nightmares enjoyable? I have a dark imagination or am I just an adrenaline junkie? When I tell me friends how I feel about shit they just say well... Don't murder me..lol I get feelings sometimes where I just wanna cause Pain maybe Iv acted on this maybe I haven't now answer my question because fuck a pyschologist

I don't really day dream about murdering people. Though I enjoy my nightmares. Sure, they scare the bejeezus out of me while they are happening, but the moment I wake up, I get this rush and feeling of awesomeness and I wanna do it again!

I am not a doctor of any kinds but you clearly have an attachment to physical and possible emotional violence , which no isn't really healthy but its not something that makes you a bad person either. You can say fuck a psychologist if these feelings remain in your dream world and no where else, but if u clearly have wakened fantasies of hurting people or yourself, then you do need to get someone professionally to talk to, sky diving , mountain climbing, speed racing, etc ect these are adrenaline junkie commonalities but the desire of enjoying being in pain or causing pain far exceeds the desire to reach adrenalin rush. I am a person of faith, I would most certainly suggest talking to a person of faith, and it docent necessarily have to be of christian based but it does certainty need to be a faith that is based on love , if u are not the spiritual or faith based type of person, then ur only logical option is a scientific and medical approach which would be seeking the help of mental professional. I will tell you the most upsetting part of your post wasn't your enjoyment of your dreams and nightmares but rather your last statement "feelings sometimes where I just wanna cause Pain maybe Iv acted on this maybe I haven't " This is leading outside your dream reality and becoming a waking issue, as someone who has experienced loss of friends from death from natural and unnatural causes, I can assure there is no positive adrenaline from murder, I also wouldn't dismiss the idea that perhaps you have dealt with these nightmares for such a length of time you have possibly forced yourself to emotionally accept and look forward to these dreams as a way to release your feelings of anger and frustration that accumulates in your waking life.

Personally, I don't enjoy murdering a bunch of stuff, but if I have to, I will. I do enjoy nightmares, and seeing weird stuff. It's cool if you come across something scary, to take it to a different environment. Sometimes the creature will transform, or freak out. There was one point where I was in a graveyard and encountered a ghost/skeleton type thing. I grabbed its hand, spun around, and we were in downtown NYC. Everyone turned and stared at it. Thousands of people were in awe. The ghost skeleton got sucked into a crack in the sidewalk, then came back out as a normal business man.

He thanked me.

It was really cool.

Anyways, I don't think you're a bad person or are fucked up in the head. It's human nature to like violence, and sex. Just don't let it intrude on your normal lifestyle.

I experience Isolated Sleep Paralysis where I see a demon as well, and did have one enjoyable experience, but most of the time the experience was horrifying and not something I would want to repeat. Most people who experience ISP, feel terror, but a small number of people feel ecstasy, so it is not so strange that you experience this.

Constant thoughts of murdering people does worry me, though...

A nightmare isn't a nightmare if it isn't scary to you right?

Dreams containing scary themes doesn't necessary mean it's a nightmare if you're not yearning to get out of it. I would say your nightmares to other people are enjoyable dreams to you.
