Starting point is 00:00:00 let's go hi guys and welcome back to another episode of sex lies and dm sides with me it's safra barker and me anastasia kingsnorth so we are back for another week and back for another opportunity to deep dive into all things sex and relationships so i think we're just going to jump straight on into this episode today because whilst it's fresh in our minds, we're going to talk about dreams. Okay, I'm somebody that doesn't really dream. However, saying that apparently you do dream every single night. Yeah, and do you want to know a fact about dreams as well, right? Apparently, they're only three seconds long, but it feels...
Starting point is 00:00:38 No. Yeah, honestly. No way. I had Google fact check me. That's not true. That is not true that is not you only dream for the last three seconds before you wake up but it feels like you've been dreaming the entire night and i think to myself how is that true but then the story would be so short you can't think all of those thoughts in
Starting point is 00:00:55 three seconds exactly but i promise you apparently a dream is three seconds long and it happens in the last three seconds before you wake up that's a fact that is a fact and hang on i'm gonna quickly google it as well i think somebody's played a prank on you that can't be true because sometimes i'm escaping like a prison and then something crazy else happens and there's no way that's in three seconds no it's not true yes no okay everyone's now clicked off the podcast do you know how many times i've told people this about tiktok which shouldn't believe anything from clearly some dreams can start from three seconds but then some dreams can also be up to two hours which would make yeah there's no way like i've jumped from one building to another and I've, I don't know, had a fight with someone
Starting point is 00:01:46 that I've fallen in love with someone in the space of three seconds. I know I've done so much in my dreams some nights. And I generally thought to myself, how have I done that in three seconds? Like that is crazy. Well, nevermind. Just ignore my stupid fact thing. Cause I was so proud of that one. I've told so many people that fact as well.
Starting point is 00:02:01 Oh my God. That is, and people believe you. That was the craziest part. Yeah, cause that's the craziest part wow that's crazy blah blah so i've just been out here spreading false information so maybe you don't believe any of the facts that i say but i had a really weird dream the other night this was about two weeks ago now and it was all like again like you said one of my biggest fears and i've always thought about this happening but i had like sleep um paralysis or like no I would actually a lucid dream so I kind of this is so weird but that night when I went to bed I could feel that something weird was going to
Starting point is 00:02:36 happen in my dream like I just felt a bit odd in myself as I was falling off to sleep and I kept like you know when you jolt and wake up and as you're about to go to sleep that kept happening to me and I was like what is going on and then I finally fell asleep and I remember and it's really weird because normally you forget all your dreams but I can remember exactly what happened because I was that freaked out um I remember obviously I was asleep but I was awake and my eyes were open and first of all I heard a knock at the door because I could hear people speaking outside my door but I don't know whether this was in my dream or whether this was actually true so then I remember I got up I walked to the door and but I think I walked I don't know I looked out the peephole and there was this man staring at me through the peephole and he could see like he
Starting point is 00:03:23 could see me and then I ducked down but he was following me with his eyes so he could see what i was doing and he was the freakiest looking man i've ever seen and i remember like dropping to the floor the door being like what is going like who is that got back into bed and normally i would shut my bedroom door and my bedroom door was for some reason open this is so stupid so do you think you got up well i don't know i really i really don't know because they say because this sounds like a terrible nightmare but they say sleep paralysis is like where you are awake but you can't physically move but this you know this was the next thing so this is why i think i might have
Starting point is 00:04:02 got up and then and then i properly fell into it after this i remember i laid in bed i couldn't move and i saw this i'm so stupid but i can still picture it in my head it was like a doll like a big doll running through my hallway into my living room and doing like laps and like she had like plaits in her hair like two plaits in her hair and like no sorry it's actually giving me shivers all over my body i don't like i remember laying there thinking oh my god what is going on like someone's in my flat but like it was a doll and then i couldn't move for it probably wasn't long but it felt like it was going on for hours but they say that it actually only goes on for like 15 minutes or like 20 minutes only went on for three seconds didn't it it happened for three seconds but it felt like three hours and i remember when i snapped out of it when i fully woke up i was in like drenching hot sweats like i was drenched through and i couldn't
Starting point is 00:04:55 see if i had to put netflix on the tv and i literally sat up and i put a film on i think about half four in the morning and i just didn't sleep because i was absolutely terrified like terrified that's so weird he says oh no i would actually be terrified to ever go to sleep again yeah and it says this is the reason why you like have sleep paralysis so sleep paralysis happens when you cannot move your muscles as you awaken up or falling asleep this is because you're in sleep mode but your brain is active it's not clear why sleep paralysis can happen but it has been linked with insomnia and really weirdly for the last like month it's actually all right now but i was really suffering with insomnia and i just would not be able to go to sleep or like i'd keep waking up this is another weird thing i kept waking up at witching hour
Starting point is 00:05:39 what's witching between three and four in the middle of the night is apparently like witching hour and like if you're very like spiritual and all that stuff like that it's just a bit of a witching time and i kept waking up for um easily a month straight between three and half three but i'd start waking up at the exact same minute so i kept waking up at 3 23 and then 3 33 and i knew since i woke up when i know what time it's gonna be and i clicked my phone and it was every single time okay that is really weird i don't know what was going on freaking really freaky i think i would like move apartment and be like my apartment's haunted i'm moving i know because i started to think i generally had that thought i was like is it haunted at where like if but then it was happening to me in a hotel as well i remember i
Starting point is 00:06:22 was this was in december and callum was in the bed with me maybe you're just haunted maybe i've got something attached to me maybe i've got some weird poltergeist yeah that is that is scary i don't even know how you deal with that do you know they say that dreams are created about like the things that you talk about in the day so it all has relevance so i don't know say you were like like that day maybe like somebody mentioned the word doll oh and then it was even if they were like oh hi doll and it might have been in my subconscious and it triggers it and it's in your subconscious and now i'm scared i'm gonna dream of demons and dolls and everyone that's listening if you dream of demons or dolls tonight then that is true you're maybe yeah when you shut your eyes out, you're going to think, oh my God, I really hope I don't dream of a doll.
Starting point is 00:07:06 No, I know. Yeah, apparently that is how your dreams are created. And that I actually think is a fact, unlike your three second fact. That is a worse fact than I've ever said. Let's go. I'm going back to university for $0 delivery fee, up to 5% off orders and 5% Uber cash back on rides.

Starting point is 00:08:15 that you've had in your life that you remember? Or like ones that have stood out to you? Yes, I don't really dream very often. Well, they say you dream every single night, but you just don't remember them, which makes sense because I have the worst memory. Not not really but there was one reoccurring dream I had when I was younger for about I would say two weeks I had the same dream for about two weeks and I obviously remember it because it freaked me out and it's really weird because it was about my mum's best friend who was the loveliest woman who was
Starting point is 00:08:46 basically like my god mom and I dreamt that she was a witch and she was so scary and every night before I go to bed I'd be like please don't have the dream again I don't want the dream again to the point where like sometimes I couldn't even look at her because it scared me so much even though she was the nicest woman ever would it be the exact same dream and story? Or would it just be like the story would carry on every night when you'd go to sleep? No, it would be the exact same dream all the way from the beginning. What? For like two weeks straight? For like two weeks straight.
Starting point is 00:09:17 And do you know what's so weird? Obviously, I knew that we was doing this podcast yesterday, but it wasn't even me that brought it up. When we went out for my brother's birthday yesterday, he said he said guys you won't believe the dream I had last night and I was like how weird and we were talking about dreams for a good half an hour and it wasn't even me that I brought it up but actually somebody who has reoccurring dreams is my brother so my brother remembers his dreams every single night but his dreams are crazy they're always horrific but in a way i kind of like it when he dreams of bad things because they've never happened so i'm taking it as a good thing and my brother dreams that every night one of us family members die like i've
Starting point is 00:09:59 in his dream multiple times so has my mom so has my dad like all of us have oh my god it's really crazy because i also heard and i know this is true because from my experience yeah apparently you never die in your dreams so if you die in your dream you've died in real life so like you'll always like if you fell off a cliff you wake up before you hit the floor yeah but i've never thought about other people dying that can happen because i've never had somebody else die in my dream thing is obviously death is inevitable like we're all going to die one day but they say that like if you dream it then it's not going to happen in the sense of say like if you if you have this like magic obviously if i dreamt i married justin bieber that's obviously not going to happen but they said like if you dream it it's never going to become a thing
Starting point is 00:10:48 so even if like maybe obviously we're all going to die one day but like if you dream that this person's going to die in a certain way they're probably not going to die in that way do you know what I mean yeah but are you saying just with death or are you saying in general because sometimes I'm dreaming that you know I win an Oscar and I would quite likely to think that's true I did mean in general however well babe I've also had some lovely dreams about myself before that I thought I would love that to be reality I haven't really dreamt about that but yeah well there you go you're actually going to win an Oscar then I hope so babe have you ever had like a wet dream before like a sex dream yeah yes I know I would have I have had one but like not one that I can
Starting point is 00:11:42 particularly like remember yeah have you yeah I think the same like I know that I've had one but like not one that i can particularly remember yeah have you yeah i think the same like i know that i've had one before but again not like i can really remember i've also had dreams as well where like i enjoyed them so much that i woke up and i was like oh i'm gonna go back to bed please think the same thing please think the same thing please think and i've gone back to bed and it has continued yeah i love that it's so that is actually like you know when you get to the end you're like fuck I woke up I want to know the ending a really good story you're like no I need to know what happens like I need yeah well Byron can like weirdly control his dreams a little bit so he can like he because he laughs in his sleep and I always think like he's having a really good dream because he always laughs like a cackle laugh
Starting point is 00:12:24 as well like it's not just a little right like he's fully a really good dream because he always laughs like a cackle laugh as well. Like it's not just a little giggle. Like he's fully laughing. And I was like, what did you do about last night? He was like, oh, I was making like people do funny things in my dream. And he can like control what he's dreaming about. It's so weird. But I really wish that I could do it because I obviously don't have any control over my dreams. I didn't realize anybody could.
Starting point is 00:12:42 But if he, you know, if he thinks about a certain thing or thinks that what he wants to happen he can fall back into that dream i don't understand that how can you control yeah i know because of your subconscious thoughts i guess so and he's just worked out a trick now to be able to do it but like that's why he because he loves going to sleep he's like yeah because i can control what i know i'm going to dream about and he's always laughing in his sleep and I'm like you're having such a good time that you are literally having wow that's crazy it's crazy as well to think that we actually do dream every night every night I've had we've got a meaning of this as well I had a dream last week about being abducted by aliens which is quite a fun dream I quite enjoyed it I can still picture
Starting point is 00:13:24 it well I also thought it was real when I woke up because I remember because it was based in my apartment and it started with me looking out the window and I went to everyone I went oh guys the moon's really big tonight and the moon was massive like it was huge outside the window and then I remember the moon started to like disintegrate and it just turned into like all these aliens and they like killed everybody outside but came and abducted me and I was like this is so cool i was like i was loving it because i love aliens i was like this is amazing but it says here that being abducted shows how you may be allowing your real nature to be kidnapped by fear or the pressure of others and the threat of
Starting point is 00:13:59 being abducted by aliens and ufos is a common dream theme arising from peer pressure or doing things that go against your sense of self so I don't know if I feel like pressured in some sort of my life or I feel like I need to like be so you just googled that and that came up yeah or like be a certain way or I don't know but that's apparently the meaning of being abducted and apparently it's a fairly common dream to have which I never would have thought because I didn't look into that dream thinking like oh that's a common dream I just thought I've been abducted yeah that's crazy I don't think anything like that's ever happened to I feel like I'm gonna have some crazy dream tonight or I'm gonna wake up and be like no nothing again genuinely now we've had this conversation
Starting point is 00:14:39 and you're gonna look into every single dream differently yeah let's have a look at more like classic dreams then rather like specific weird ones that i've been having the first one is your teeth falling out i have dreamt about this before have you i haven't but jesus christ i think that would actually actually have i no i have when i went to the dentist not long ago i dreamt again like my memory is so bad i can't really fully remember but i remember my teeth have fallen out yeah and i've had that dream before as well and it says they may represent a fear of saying the wrong things to others your teeth are a symbol of
Starting point is 00:15:14 pride and strength and the dream may represent feelings of vulnerability in your life no i'm sorry mine was definitely just because i went to the dentist so not like it definitely was not that you've got a fear of saying the wrong thing to others no i don't think so i've dreamt i've had that dream a couple of times that i can remember but i wouldn't necessarily say it was for that reason um maybe in my subconscious it thought that it needed to come out in a dream that's so weird it's and how does somebody even figure that out i know like a dream i guess the people who i guess there's going to be like specialized like dream people who specialize in that which is crazy what a job because i'm sure that yeah what a job but also i still just don't i mean i get there's a lot of things i don't
Starting point is 00:16:00 understand but like i really really don't understand how they would figure that out i know because like how because surely it's going to mean something different for every single person yeah rather than like a generalized meaning yeah a hundred percent i don't the next one is flying have you ever flew in your dream yeah i've definitely flown in my dream i've done this load so many in fact i probably fly in my dream more than anything else yeah i've definitely flown in my dream i've done this load so many in fact i probably fly in my dream more than anything else yeah i think it's so fun i'm always flying i'm jumping from one building to another like i've dreamt about i'm like a superwoman in my dream yeah i've dreamt about flying downstairs before down the banner like holding the banisters and
Starting point is 00:16:39 being able to fly downstairs but i remember really yeah but i remember thinking that like it was very i thought it was real when i was younger but it said that unlike most other common themes dreaming that you can fly is usually considered to be a positive experience however if you dream that you cannot stay in control of your flight then this may relate to fears about control in the real world oh wow which i guess i don't think that's ever happened to me i guess that does make sense though because it's like if you're losing control of your flying you're losing control of certain things in your life or you're lacking control which makes a lot of sense yeah to me that makes a lot more sense than like the teeth one the teeth one just i find crazy yeah the teeth i don't really understand but this one I definitely can see
Starting point is 00:17:25 how that could subconsciously relate to that yeah but then when I was a kid dreaming about me flying down the stairs I don't think I had lack of control but maybe I did no no I rather enjoyed all the times I've been flying me too I love those dreams I actually haven't had one for a really really really long time where i was flying but i think they're so fun isn't it funny as well like i don't know if you find this but in like how dreams make sense and then you wake up and it doesn't make any sense like you'll be like oh that was such a cool dream and then you're training to someone like well i was in a school but then actually the school turned into and then it turned into like a supermarket and it's like but it made sense in the dream that that happened but like when you're
Starting point is 00:18:11 explaining it to someone you're like how did the how do I go from the school to the super like how was that so normal that the school turned into a supermarket yeah have you ever dreamt where like say if I was dreaming of you but you don't't look like you, but I know it's you? See, I've never had that, but I've had so many people tell me that. Yeah, so, like, that happens to me a lot. I'll be dreaming about my friends or, like, you, for example. It's happened to you before in my dream. And I know it's you.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Like, I know you're saffron, but you don't look like you. I've explained dreams to people before and I'm like, you were in it, but, like, it wasn't you, but it was you. Like, I knew it was you. That's so weird. I don't think I've ever had that. Yeah, it's so bizarre. I need you to in it but like it wasn't you but it was you like i knew it i knew it was you i don't think i've ever had that yeah it's so bizarre i need you to have some like mad dreams same but the thing is i forget it by the time i go to tell someone as well well then you when you wake up first thing in the morning you need to write in you know write it down just write notes and be like oh my god no next time i dream i'm gonna do that but i genuinely can't remember the last time i dreamt that was you must get a peaceful night's sleep though
Starting point is 00:19:04 because a lot of the time i don't have nice dreams a lot of i'm dreaming of dolls walking around my hallway yeah to be fair i'm quite i i love my sleep i wake up and it's like time hasn't even happened yeah that's the dream babe that's bliss okay the next one then is falling have you ever dreamt that you've fallen in your dream yeah I definitely have but like I said I've never touched the floor yes I've yeah because you would die when you wake up before you die but I'm sure I've dreamt that I'm falling but apparently this means dreaming of falling is very common it is a symbol of fear in real life perhaps of failing at work or in your love life falling often expresses a need to let yourself go more and enjoy life more i mean
Starting point is 00:19:46 again it makes sense but i just don't understand how they're figuring this out also i don't like the idea of this one so i don't want to believe it because you're like i dream all the time about falling what yeah no i get that again i can understand where they probably got that explanation from because i guess if you're for like falling or failing or whatever i can understand the explanation behind that way more than the teeth one the teeth one but that is a really common dream but yeah i don't understand the the meaning behind that but the falling one i can get behind a little bit more yeah no it does it does make sense i haven't dreamt about falling for a very long time though i'm not gonna lie like i would i feel like i'd remember that dream
Starting point is 00:20:23 yeah it's not a very nice dream to have no not at all and i feel like i always remember my horrible dreams rather than my nice dreams yeah just yeah definitely stick in my head like fear i'm like oh i don't want to dream about that again that was horrible yeah 100 100 let's go 100%. 100%.

So by an animal, you might be hiding from your own anger passions and other feelings and by a member of the opposite sex this suggests that you're afraid of love or haunted by a past
Starting point is 00:22:17 relationship i'm surprised i've not been um chased by the opposite sex then because love does scare me a little bit that'll be a very common dream for me to have yeah i don't think i have i've definitely been chased by a bear by a bear yeah i've definitely been chased by a bear okay so you might be hiding from your own anger passions and other feelings how i don't understand like i'm actually gonna genuinely do research as to how people will put two and two together what passions are you hiding from babe no passion i don't know i do i don't even know myself that wow i'm trying i don't think i've ever dreamt about being chased or maybe i have by i don't i don't think i've dreamt by being chased by an animal before this is just crazy because i just didn't really i knew it was like dreams of base of subconscious thoughts but I never really realized there was actually a meaning behind it
Starting point is 00:23:09 like my family members dying every night in my brother's dreams what does that mean but then also at the same time it does make sense because my younger brother genuinely is so terrified that any of us will die before him which hopefully it happens like that because he's younger than all of us so hopefully it does happen like that but his biggest fear in life like genuinely he thinks about it every day is which is so sweet is us dying before him like he's so scared of it that explains why he would would be dreaming about that then because that's his biggest fear. Yeah, but then is that, does that make sense? Like is that what they would say that is if a family member dies?
Starting point is 00:23:53 Because I know we've got a list of things, but we haven't got somebody dying. Let me Google it really quick. This dream may symbolise, oh, unresolved issues with that person or the wish for more closeness and understanding between you. Sometimes these dreams suggest fears of abandonment or rejection from this person they would also express a desire to protect them from harm the last one is probably the most realistic one i hope so oh god we should never mention this one now just check in on jed
Starting point is 00:24:20 i will i think i'll check in on him did you don. I think I'll check in on him. Jed, you don't feel abandoned, do you? No, just check in. Just check in. No, but they express a desire to protect them from harm. That's lovely. And I guess... Yeah. I mean, that's what I mean.
Starting point is 00:24:33 Like, it's all very generalised. He is obviously dreaming about that because it is his biggest fear. Mm. And I... Like, bless him, though, for dreaming about that every night. I think I'd feel a bit drained. No, he does. He genuinely feels drained. Yeah. Does he not does he not genuinely does he not have any other dreams
Starting point is 00:24:48 no he never has a good dream that is awful i genuinely would wake up every day and think oh my god again yeah here we go again here we go again i'd go to see here we go again who's gonna die tonight no i know it actually would be horrible. Actually, bless him, I feel very sorry for him. And I hope, obviously, I hope it doesn't mean any of those things that Google have said. Yeah, so do I. I am going to have a little check-in on him after.
Starting point is 00:25:14 Yeah, that is proof you do not believe everything that Google says. Okay. Being naked in public. Has this ever happened to you? I think I have dreamed about me being naked in public before. Okay, this means, metaphorically, Naked in public? Has this ever happened to you? I think I have dreamed about me being naked in public before. Okay. This means, metaphorically, clothes represent a concealment or protection. So dreaming that you are naked could indicate vulnerability.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Wow. So I could be feeling quite vulnerable if I dream of myself naked. See, I would have thought the opposite. If you were just like naked in public, I would have thought it meant you're like body proud and like confident. Super confident. Not vulnerable. Neither.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Feeling vulnerable. Well, now... Are these making sense? Are they hitting the spot? I don't know if I feel vulnerable. This is the thing, like when I've dreamt about things, I've never thought
Starting point is 00:25:59 about what it could mean. I have before dreamt, but I can't remember what now. Like I should have wrote them down. I have had specific dreams before where I have woke up and googled it because I thought all that is really weird and I have like searched the meanings behind it but none of them are ever really right or what I think they're right anyway maybe subconsciously I just don't want to admit it to myself maybe I felt very vulnerable in those days where I was dreaming of myself naked but like it just
Starting point is 00:26:25 none of it makes sense to me so I've never even googled it like I've always just thought oh it's a dream I don't know I've never I don't really think I've ever deeped it that much to be honest with you I haven't unless it's like a really fucking weird dream yeah I'd be interesting to see like people that are listening if you've ever had any of these dreams. And like if you've thought to yourself, well, I do feel a bit vulnerable at the moment.

Let's go okay the last one then taken a test have you ever dreamt that you're taking a test not that i remember i mean i i think i find that quite boring so it's not really something i'd probably try and remember either i probably have but like not that it's jump into memory but it says to dream of failing an exam being late for one or being unprepared shows that you feel unprepared for the challenges of waking life oh wow so you just again though makes kind of sense i think these are all very generic meanings do you know what i mean like i could yeah i could

Starting point is 00:29:20 and i'll probably have one because i only remember you probably have one i'll probably have gone to sleep paralysis 10 more times i've lucid what lucid dream have you ever lucid dreamed no i don't really know what that really means i need to just google it because i know that's another really common oh yeah so lucid dreaming is the experience of achieving conscious awareness of dreaming whilst asleep so i think that's what happened to me so it's really similar to sleep process yeah so i think that is what happened to me before i saw the weird doll i'm sorry but that is the weirdest thing i've ever heard it's horrible in there like it's at like i can picture her she like you know those lol dolls yeah very similar to that that's so weird that's what i was seeing and i know i saw it so weird like i know i saw it like it and this man whoever this man was in my
Starting point is 00:30:17 hallway who could somehow see me through the door i when you woke up was you scared i was terrified i was absolutely terrified when you like fully woke up in the morning you were still scared well I woke up at half four didn't go back to bed but like I thought about it for a long time I texted everyone I was like I've just had the worst dream of my entire life like I've never experienced anything like that before that's crazy I like I said I knew it was gonna happen like I knew as I kept jolting and waking myself up I was like something's gonna go weird tonight like I said I knew it was gonna happen like I knew as I kept jolting and waking myself up I was like something's gonna go weird tonight like I just get that weird and ever since to be honest I've slept with like background noise and normally I have to sleep in like silence
Starting point is 00:30:56 and pitch black but I've had the tv on like really low and the window open just so I can hear a bit of noise and i make sure the doors are shut wow i mean i always see my door shut what your bedroom door yeah sometimes i would sleep with it open because i live in a flat so i was like oh it's like joan i didn't really think about it but like now i'm always like no door shut and bathroom door shut yeah because i don't want to sometimes i lay in bed in the middle of the night and i'll look and i like think i can start to see something and i'll think myself oh my god that is so weird but living on your own could do mad things to your brain sometimes i live by myself so don't
Starting point is 00:31:33 be telling me that okay babe you're sleeping soundly every night anyway you're having no dreams you're waking up this is amazing i've just dreamt it's a new day it's a new day you've had a baby in your dream sometimes i do think to myself you know if you just wake up in a bad mood yeah sometimes i think to myself like even though i don't remember a dream i must have dreamt of something that put me in a bad mood because they say you dream every night so like why is it some days you wake up and you feel so motivated so ready to go and some days you wake up and you're like fuck this day i don't want to do it that is so true i've never thought about that before that is that could be very very true if you wake up in a really good mood you've had a lovely dream yeah i'm in a bad mood you dream a bit awful she woke up in a great mood today so i must have dreamt something sweet i was flying
Starting point is 00:32:21 you were do you ever when you're asleep well i don't know if you're going to know this actually, it will more be someone would tell you, but do you talk in your sleep or do you sleepwalk? Yeah, I talk in my sleep a lot. I've heard you talk in your sleep before. Yeah, which is weird. I've also seen you can sleep kind of with your eyes somewhat open. Yes, everyone says this. It's so weird. I sleep with my eyes half open yes everyone says this it's so weird and i don't i see my eyes
Starting point is 00:32:46 half open yeah which is so strange it is it's quite scary it's like i'm always looking out yeah no but not all the time to be fair actually but yeah the amount of times my friends had a conversation with me thinking i'm awake oh and i'm asleep like how freaky is that i've said stuff to you before thinking you're awake and you're asleep but they're not like fully open before everyone thinks i'm actually crazy it's not like i've got my eyes open they're literally like this yeah if you're watching you'll see but like still it's really strange obviously i didn't know that i did it until but i wonder if that means something like i'm always aware of people watching me. I don't know. Like, that's so strange.
Starting point is 00:33:26 But, yeah, it's weird because, like, okay, so when I used to get lash extensions, the lady used to say, like, she actually had to, like, tape my eyes down. She's like, I've never had to do this to anyone in my life, but you can't physically shut your eyes. So apparently when I shut my eyes, I'm not actually shutting my eyes. There's no maybe this is a weird thing that i have yeah there's no like um like dream meaning behind it really it's just saying that some people just have it with their eyelids apparently but when i was at
Starting point is 00:33:58 an event last night actually we were watching a film and um this girl fell asleep with her eyes open no okay that like i know i sound crazy but mine are like huh no yeah yeah yours aren't like fully like but no hers were but what a skill to have imagine if you wanted to like if you were in uni or you're at school and you wanted to have a nap yeah that is that would be unreal that's incredible i can have an hour nap and my eyes are open i look like i'm awake yeah that's crazy i love that i used to sleepwalk when i was younger i haven't done it for my brother was terrible at sleepwalking and you're not meant to wake a sleepwalker are you because it's really dangerous i would go downstairs and i'd eat the butter out the fridge that's so random so weird i wonder why we sleepwalk as well there's definitely a reason
Starting point is 00:34:45 behind oh there's definitely a reason let me google it my google search is gonna be so my brother used to make cocoa pops and he also used to get all of the toilet rolls in the house and what and pile them up really weird we had three different bathrooms and they'd go to all the bathrooms and he'd get the toilet rolls and pile them up he'd part that's so weird it's so weird the same thing every night that but that's what i do with the butter and my i remember i was really young i was like four or five and my dad would always come downstairs and i'd get myself up on the kitchen counter with a spoon i need to always lift me down and put me back into bed with the butter and i why would i eat? That's such a weird thing to go and eat. That's so weird.
Starting point is 00:35:25 It's so weird, isn't it? I kind of like would love to have slept one time though. You don't remember it though. No. I had no memory of ever, ever, ever doing it. I know, imagine if every night I was doing that and I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:35:39 That'd be freaking freaky. Imagine if you come downstairs and you tidied your house and you'd made a meal in your sleep. Yeah. And you'd be like, who the fuck was in my house? Because imagine like, yeah, if you live by yourself
Starting point is 00:35:49 and you didn't know, then yeah, you'd be like, who's been in my house? But then imagine if you had a camera in your house and you went like, you were- Oh no, actually I don't want to do that.
Starting point is 00:35:57 And you watched yourself. I'm okay with my no dreams in bed. I'm actually okay with my no dreams in bed. I'm happy how I am. Please, please subconscious, do not, do not start make me do that okay but to end this episode then when every time you do have a dream now write it in your notes because we're gonna revisit this in the next couple of months
