What goes on when you are asleep?

Question

What goes on when you are asleep?

Answer 1

I would guess that what goes on while you are asleep is pretty much what goes on while you are awake, only quieter and you're probably dreaming too.

Answer 2

Elfs and Pixies come out and go through your things, sometimes they put your underwear on their heads and take photos - google it, I'm sure you'll find some!

Answer 3

Yes.

Last Christmas, we stayed on Norfolk Island (we have been many times before). Norfolk is an old convict island, and hauntings are always being reported.

Anyway, we stayed in a refurbished house. The house was over 100 years old, but done up really nicely.

I wont go into every deatail, because it will take to long.

On our first night, I was sleeping with my mum because we didnt want to mess up the other beds for the owners. My mum said the next morning that through the night the door slammed so loudly next to the bed, but she thought it was just the wind, because the window was open.

Anyway, the next night, I felt very odd. I'm usually a bit 'scared' in old houses and stuff because I know what can do on, but this night it was really odd I just felt so terrible. I was panicing and shut my eyes so tight so I could go to sleep fast.

On the third night, we had just come back from dinner, my mum was getting changed, and I had just been to the toilet which was down the hall (as you will soon learn was the most haunted). I was standing in the lounge, whatching the TV, when suddenly the whole hallway and bathroom started shaking, like it would when there was an earthquake. But it was just the hall and the bathroom. I asked my mum if she had felt in and she said no. This REALLY freaked me out.

On the forth night, I was in the toilet again, my mum had been with me but now was not because I was doing my business, lol. I just happened to look out the door from where my mum had been standing, and there was this white smoke there. I got terrified so I finished what I was doing and walked very quickly out, through the smoke to my mum again, but I didnt say anything. Also, after I had been on the computer that night, I caught a glimps of the lounge just before I was about to walk out, and I could have sworn there was a person running through the room.

The next day when we were on the beach I kept trying to bring up what had happened to my mum. And finally she said 'do you think the house is haunted'. I reluctantly said yes.

And she said 'you know what? I do to'. She said she had been seeing things too.

So we bought some sage and saged the house to clear it. She said we will give it one more night, if nothing better, we will leave. So that night it felt just as bad, the lights started flickering, 2 of them went out. The door slammed and you wont know what I mean, but it just had a terrible feeling, I was pertrified. I didnt even feel safe with my mum there.

Anyway, we got into bed we lay there for about 8 minutes, and finally my mum said, do you feel it? and I said yes,so she said thats it were going, something bads going to happen. She went into the kitchen and started ringing hotels, but none answerd as it was 9:30pm. I started crying because I could feel something was going to happen, as in BAD. So we got our overnight bad and left, all lights on and everything. As we walked out the front door we heard several glasses smash onto the kitchen floor.

Luckily we got a hotel 4 the night, most of the hotels on the island close @ 7:00pm. but we were lucky because this one had a bar open so we got a room.

The odd thing was the next morning all the lights had been turned off. And there were no glasses on the floor.

We told the manager of the house what had happened, and he admitted he had seen things too in it too.

You could not imagine the feeling of what it felt like. I dont even want to think about what could have happened if we had of stayed.

Answer 4

I don't know.  I'm asleep.

Answer 5

The world keeps turning.  Your body keeps working.  Your brain runs amok.

Answer 6

Many things go on when you sleep. First of all when your body is a sleep, and your spirit never sleeps. Sometimes spirits come to communicate with your spirit. You may not be aware of it, most people aren't. I am aware of it because at times my third eye opens to see them, and since I can see them I am aware of everything that comes on, and I either feel their thoughts, and communicate telepathy, or they speak out loud. Also when you think at times you had a dream, was it really a dream, or did you astral project or traveled. These things happen when we all sleep and things you don't comprehend unless you are aware of it.

Answer 7

Aliens come and abduct you.Spiders craw over your face.Mice nibble on your fingers and fleas from the cat jump in your hair.Thats just for starters.Burglers creep though your open window and rob you.Your partner creeps out to the kitchen for a midnight snack and the dog jumps on the bed and wakes you up.Your neigubour sneeks around your backyard to see what they can steal.

Answer 8

I'm an odd sleeper. I don't move at all from the time i fall asleep to when I wake up. I haven't had a single dream since I started meditating either. BUT I have deja vu like crazy. Usually it's only about five seconds but sometimes it's like 5 minutes and I know everything that's going to happen and I can't do anything to avoid it.

Answer 9

This is the time that your body rests and rejuvenates...but your subconscious mind is in charge.  

When you have been asleep for several hours, you enter the deepest phase of sleep, REM (rapid eye movement) and this is the phase of deep sleep that is most important to your health.  When you are sleeping lightly, or awakened often, and unable to achieve much REM sleep you feel less rested upon rising and your body didn't get the "time out" it needed.

A long period of this will result in chronic tiredness, yawning, sleepiness, general fatigue & malaise.  

In several "phases" (levels) of sleep you ARE dreaming and although you often times have no memory of your dream in the morning, most people actually dream many hours every night.  

If you are a religious person, I have been told that if you ask God in prayer each night to allow you to remember your dreams, that you will.  Not sure about this part, but the scientifically proven "levels" of sleep have been extensively studied with many sleep studies (brain waves indicating brain activity) and you can actually see the eyes move, albeit closed, during the REM phase.  Their movement is in relation to the dream you are experiencing at the moment.

I have a personal history of sleepwalking and sleep-talking when I was a child, and so did my daughter, which seems to run in families (genetic predisposition) which, once again, is the subconscious mind in control, in a dream state but your eyes are open and you're body is being piloted by your mind (which NEVER truly sleeps).  

They can hear you while in this state and it is a complete myth that you shouldn't wake them, but I have found that I could just softly tell my daughter to go back to bed and gently turn her around and she would crawl back in bed and have no memory of the episode in the morning.  

More than just a few days (in a row) of complete sleep deprivation can result in insanity.  Sleep deprivation was often used as a military interrogation tactic.
