Yeah, that whole 'fall asleep to X thing and have an awesome dream about it!' theory never pans out for me. I fall asleep to some crazy anime, or reading a Transformers comic, or whatever else...and I dream I'm getting chased by bees. Great.
I haven't been sleeping very well lately, something on my subconscious is not letting me. I don't know what it is.
That hilarious. I have been able to do it, but it always comes out like my mind is trying to tell me "it's not that great, you shouldn't fantasize so much," so if I'm dreaming about, say a guy, he turns out to be a complete dick and I wake up kind of disillusioned and and pissed off.
I had the same problem. I haven't slept well in months. And then a few days ago I figured it all out and went through hell and back. Now I sleep like a baby
i love falling asleep to documentaries about space and the deep ocean. my dreams are always so calm and peaceful. or How It's Made. that really chills me out. anything other than that and i'm restless and stressed. no dialogue for me.
music is too stimulating. and i unconsciously start responding to dialogue. but there's something very soothing about knowing that if there is any life out there, they don't give a fart in a tornado about my piddling problems.
