Jan Patrice Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 hi I googled this title and your forum can up... the reason I googled is because this has happened to Me! hard to believe I know but it's true and I have been trying to get my head around it since... has anyone else been through the same?
DrP Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Yea, give us some more details. Here is the conversation we had about it. It was generally thought that the most likey explanation was that the injury caused the dream.... there has never been a substantiated case of it being the other way around. SOme people will claim the injury came from the dream because they cannot fathom how an injury can occur whilst asleep... but it is well shown that people can injure themselves whilst sleeping. So, what happened?
Jan Patrice Posted January 26, 2018 Author Posted January 26, 2018 I dreamt I was in a dark forest with my mother and son and even though it was scary .. I knew where I was ... I put my mother and son into a house to hide as we were being chased by black winged creatures ... not birds .. people with wings .. I ran through the forest but tripped and knocked my chest on the left side .and the pain was unbearable..as I turned over there was a winged rainbow person above me .. it was a woman and I felt I knew her.. then I woke up but was still groggy and trying to recap what was going on as I was still in so much pain ... I thought I was having a heart attack and my partner woke up ... I was clutching my chest and trying to come to terms with my dream... my partner was really worried .. after about 15 mins the pain eased but my chest was stinging ... I got up and went to the bathroom and I went to the mirror because of the stinging I pulled up my bra and there on the left side ... under my breast was a deep graze ... exactly where I had fallen .. I showed my partner and we were both looking for other reasons how this could have happened ... but there was no other way ... I know it sounds weird but it's true and I know I got the injury from that fall .. has anyone else experienced this?
Strange Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 With noises and other things that disturb sleep, your brain tries to incorporate them into your dream. So you might have a dream about a car alarm and then wake up and realise it is your alarm clock going off. Because the brain invents the concept of "now" it is even able to put you in a situation with cars before the car alarm goes off. So, one possibility is that for some reason your bra rubbed or caused a scratch (pressure from the way you were sleeping? some grit trapped under it? who knows). Maybe, in your sleep you rubbed it an made it worse. Anyway, at some point your brain incorporated the pain into your dream and then you woke up.
StringJunky Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 I agree with Strange, your brain made a dream out of the incident that was occurring at that point in time. I had a dream of trying to swim up to the surface from a depth as fast as I could and when I woke up I was busting for a pee.
Jan Patrice Posted January 28, 2018 Author Posted January 28, 2018 I have visited all of these theory's and I know that these can of things can happen but the thing is there was no other way ... to put it bluntly my bra is a very secure bra... and my pjs are also snug ... honestly this was not just a little scatch ... and was in a unreachable place .. this was a deep graze... i know it's unbelievable but I feel like it happened
