When I was a kid, the only time I’ve wet the bed was because of dreams where I’m in a urinal or a toilet.

Last time I really needed to go and indeed there appeared a toilet and indeed I used it. I woke up half an hour later to find myself compeletly dry in my bed and still needing to go to the toilet. I couldn’t believe it either, but I swear I’m not making this up.

This is how it should work unless you have some sort of sleep condition or aren’t in deep sleep (which shouldn’t be the case if you’re dreaming). You’re paralyzed in your sleep, that includes the ability to urinate. The only time you should be concerned about urinating in your dreams is if you have a history of bed-wetting.

i have this like every single week, best part is that at some point while waking up i realize “oh fuck i hope i’m not pissing the bed”, then i wake up and go “oh thank christ, not even a drop”

How’d you know it was a half-hour later?

Bro has dream clock continuity with the real world, isn’t it a paid feature? $10 per month is pretty expensive for such a novelty feature, I ain’t paying for that.

Kinda requires you knowing you’re in a dream.

If anything at all even looks remotely suspicious, pinch your nose so you can’t breathe through it. If you can still breathe through it youre dreaming baby, and thats real air passing through your real nose you can feel back in reality!
The trick is to get into the habit of doing it for anything. Strange car you’ve never seen before? Pinch. You’ve been gaming for 3 hours when it felt like 15 minutes? Pinch. You see the same girl 3 times in one day? Thats a pinching.

Sleep apnea would like to say hi. Now you can’t breath in dreams either.

When I was a kid I did the opposite. I would be using the bathroom in real life and would fear that it’s a dream/hallucination and I’m actually pissing in the classroom.
qarbone@lemmy.world 3 months ago
That’s why I never piss and shit. Whobknows how many layers deep I am at any given moment??

I was about to a couple of years ago, jolted awake and went straight to the real bathroom. I’ve never gone from deep sleep to 100% clarity that quickly. If only we could harness that power…

I always use them but it never makes the feeling of having to pee go away lol. Then I wake up and really have to go. Never gone in my sleep thankfully lol.

That’s my inception totem. If my legs start feeling warm I know it’s not real.

I’m in my 40s and I still occasionally get a dream where I’m using the toilet, and that in the dream I’m making sure I’m really awake by looking around the room reading labels on things etc. People say you can’t read text in dreams, because it looks mangled and makes no sense. Well, if you believe it makes sense within the logic of the dream - that is, whatever switch in your brain that makes you go from “not sure” to “100% confident” gets flipped - then it matters not what lorem ipsum horseshit is printed in melting calligraphy on the shampoo bottle. My brain yearns for a piss-filled mattress and it will not be dissuaded by my feeble attempts at some sort of dreamworld scientific method.

Often dream about hunting for a toilet… then I wake and need to go straight to the loo.

Same thing applies if you have some… erotically pleasing experience. But in that case - just go for it, consequences are always worth it.

Or a urinal

Recently I got trashed camping and dreamt of pushing in a toilet then awoke trying to piss out of my hammock but the stream was sadly, and quite shockingly not

Don’t tell me what to do

I very often have some convoluted dream, where I end up taking a piss, except it just doesn’t stop, then after a while I wake up having to pee really badly

Saaameee!!
Also sometimes in the dream I pee in a weird place. Like, someone tells me where the bathroom is and it’s just some room without toilets or anything so I just pee in the corner of that room.diemartin@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
For me it’s a toilet in the middle of an otherwise empty bathroom (i.e. not even a sink to wash my hands)
I usually start peeing a neverending stream until I wake up (I don’t pee myself tho, just wake up with an urgent need to pee)

Fool me, can’t get fooled again!
Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
I use them in dreams often and I actually feel better. It’s pretty weird. I don’t piss myself at all, either.
So, it’s not a trap for everyone.
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Only happened to me once and woke up before emptying my entire bladder. Nowadays I can piss all I want in my dreams and not wet the bed.
pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 months ago
Made this mistake once. It was a urinal and things were getting warm

I use them in dreams all the time and they offer me no relief. Then I wake up and go to the “real” one… That’s right. I know what’s up, machine elves.

I just have an infinite pee stream but for some reason never recognize that it’s a dream. I just get angry that I’m peeing so much
Pudutr0n@feddit.cl 3 months ago
Evsn when I’ve recognized dreams for what they are, it hasn’t given me much power over them. Just helped me face fears.
