I have sleeping issues. There are very few nights in which I don't have trouble getting to sleep. One thing that always helps me, however, is getting as comfortable as possible, close my eyes, and imagine myself in a blissful situation. I always have this weird fantasy of the Mane Six all curled up in my bed around me - asleep. Then I imagine myself waking up and seeing all their smiling faces. So my question is this: Do any of you enjoy day dreaming or fantasying about spending intimate quality time with any of the characters from MLP? Or perhaps I'm just strange... :I
For starters, nice gif in your sig. Also, I don't think it's strange at all. The only thing I do really is when I'm using my super soft pony blanket, I imagine that's what they would feel like.
Yes....Fluttershyy.. *sigh* i wish some big eyed, beautiful, shy, graceful, pink curly gorgeous haired girl would just show up at my school one day Also Puddin Pops. :3
My dreams have always revolved around what I had read, watched, or played. MLP has been no different from this, and the only time I consider my own dreams *weird* is when they involve people of the real world (due to strong emotional ties I assume). Lately my personal favorite is one of Luna and me staring at the stars, one of the more few calm ones lately though most of the others are never remembered.
Same here. I often imagine going to bed and cuddling with Aj. It makes me feel happy. Now I just need to get a plushie.
Well i do daydream.... but to be honest not about mlp.... more about i dont know... people i know real
I get lost in my thoughts and daydream quite often, but honestly I don't think I've ever really daydreamed about MLP, or even dreamed about it.
My older brother says he has sleeping issues, being restless and unable to fall asleep easily, citing that his mind wanders too much and he's too stressed out. While I'd like to believe him, he can fall asleep quite fast most nights and wake up on a whim. Now, my current dwelling has me surrounded by agonizing levels of white noise (hence why I'm typically ignoring the world and listening to music). My mind wanders, a lot, and I usually don't stop thinking, even up to the very moment in which I slip away. The amusing thing to me is that I can wake up and usually pick my thoughts up right where I left off. Because of the white noise in my house, I usually sleep with a pillow over my ears (covering head, but not mouth/nose of course), and sometimes ear plugs (though I clean my ears before using them). Ear plugs are... a bit annoying, but they make deep sleep come easier with the surrounding chaos. Short of medicating myself, it's the best way for me relaxing and getting comfortable. The option isn't reliably available to me, but I recommend some nice, relaxing music you enjoy for trying to fall asleep to. My imagination is grand at the whim of music, so my dreams are typically influenced by what I hear (with instrumental music influencing my imagination greatly). Unfortunately, my headphones are supra-aural and grow uncomfortable to sleep with, as well as limiting me exclusively to sleeping on my back, which I hate. (Stomach, side, or bust.) Lastly, when sleeping on my side, I sleep with a pillow between my legs and two pillows to elevate my head comfortably (Sometimes just one folded in half). I used to sleep with 5 pillows in my own bed in North Carolina. I'm such a pampered princess. :x PS: Exercising may help you go to sleep. Do like 10-20 sit ups, push ups, curl ups, some stretches, etc. before committing to sleeping. It'll help get you in shape, too, if you need it.
I have yet to have a dream about mlp. But what you said sounds very peaceful. The dreams I have are vivid but are normally sci fi related.... No I don't think it's weird to imagine charcters you like around you. I would only caution. Dont get so chaught up in the day dream that you miss the world around you. I have done that more then I like to admit.
Most people think happy thoughts in order to fall asleep. When I was little, I would think of cookies and chocolate.
Amen my good brother, amen. This is what I always do every night when I go to sleep, and I can certify this method's effectiveness. While I don't have sleeping problems, I do need to wake up pretty early in the morning, which means going to sleep before a certain hour, and thinking relaxing thoughts is the most efficient way to ensure this happens. Naw man, that's not strange at all, or at least not in a bad way (I should probably mention that I'm a guy who takes a certain amount of pride in being outside the norm). I too like to fantasize about cuddling with ponies (as long as they look sufficiently G4), or otherwise being intimate with them (in a non-sexual and more often than not non-romantic manner (I often find myself falling in love female characters' personalities without taking appearance into account at all, but that's a story for another time)), and I don't think i need to tell you how therapeutic that is. Yeah, many people find it hard to understand how a straight male with no mental ilnesses can like cute stuff, but I say that these people have no idea what's good for them. tl;dr: I like to do what you do, I don't think it's strange at all, and if it is it's certainly nothing to be ashamed of. Disregard anyone who says otherwise.
