I was reflecting on it and realized I can't recall one single dream that happened in the first person perspective. I've been reading online a lot and it seems like most people tend to dream in first with the occasional third person. In my experience the only first person perspective I have will be for a very very very brief moment before switching right back to third. Even in that perspective it's more like a camera change than an actual first person perspective. So how do you guys dream?
I have had some dreams in third person, but overwhelmingly usually in first. I have had dreams where I am other people as well
Sometimes after playing a video game and go to sleep I'll dream in first person but I'm controlling myself by using a controller, but its not in my hands or anything can just "feel it". Its weird.
Geeze there has to be one other freak like me on the forum! I'd have bet on Lmeister but even he is more normal than I am in dream world!
You all ever been really sleep deprived and then you lay down fall asleep and wake up 20 minutes later feeling incredibly rested (I'm talking you feel like you have slept the whole night) and vividly remembering your dream? That's usually the only time I remember my dreams lol.
I'm usually first person, but have been third person too. Not sure why that sometimes happens. I have shifting Point of View in some dreams. Sometimes it's not even me. I'm my awareness but I realize I am someone else. Or I see myself like in a movie. Usually I'm me and in first person though.
Yeah I used to have pretty bad insomnia so I'd stay up for crazy amounts of time, but sometimes I'd barely sleep at all and wake up with lots of energy. It usually faded quickly though, but I'd remember any dreams I had those naps.
Pshhhh. I've read third person means you're using the more "creative" parts of your brain rather than literal. I've also read that third person dreams tend to happen most in non-REM sleep. Besides...you dont want to upset a potential serial killer do you Barry? KIDDING
