sometimes i feel like im speaking gibberish by Chisech

This 14th I started playing Kingdom of Loathing. For some reason I never bothered checking it even though I've been interested it it since like... 2008 or earlier. Early this April I also started an amino account, at least through this one email. I remember making one two years ago, but don't really remember the login info.

I've been going through my conworlds' document files the past few days, and I keep finding myself saying stuff like "midenano faifa giligja radius". I also organised some info on stuff I created from September to now because I was losing track. It's been a year and half since I started working on this part of the canon, "Bareinú", including Zetawshi. On Feb 2016 I was more or less cluelessly renovating my personas, due to the decision of addressing aspects of myself around mid-late 2015, combined with some hallucinations and lucid dreams.

Most interestingly, since this Jan I have been consciously developing Theratera more. I was first introduced to this entity in a dream from April 6 2016. Around that time, I started dreaming with what appeared to be high levels of dissociation, sometimes a bit too literal. Theratera behaves somewhat like and seems to claim to be the same force behind Gogre. Unlike Gogre, she tends to be more conservative and less drastic in her decisions, less confrontational (at least emotionally) and is often unable to fully dissociate her own mind from my own. Although I often do not see or feel myself within her when I face her in my dreams, my consciousness still merges with hers from time to time, at which point I will see everything through her.

    I often look back to games Pre Ps4/ Xbox One that I had heard of and wanted to play but never did. I tried out Dark Void last year, it was meh but I thought the concept was so cool

    Some dreams (more like nightmares) I've had inspired some characters I've drawn. Keep building!

    Making characters relatable to you makes them more believable to audiences! Having a lucid dream with one of your characters sound like the perfect opportunity to let your mind see where it goes with the character!

      Thank you! Most of my dreams have been lucid the past seven or so years. At this point most of my characters come straight from dreams, with cumulative tweaks done over the years. I have to say that dreaming of these characters tend to feel exhilarating.

      I can't quite tell when a dream is a nightmare or not anymore, with a few exceptions, because I can often change the subject with sheer force of will (most often involving time travel and telekinesis). Most nightmares nowadays tend to be limited to situations where someone in a dream magically summons giant mirrors displaying my own regretful memories.

        Geez that's intense. I'd recommend doing a sleep study! There's a lot of factors that involve lucid dreams, what you eat and drink, so much exercise you get and other things!

          I see! I have found that, for myself, writing down and brooding over a dream after waking up tends to cause my lucid dreams to happen more often. In fact, the increase of lucid dreaming frequency matches the time when I began recording my dreams.

          But then again, I have bipolar disorder and OCD (mostly memory hoarding) and both of them seem to play a role on it, as my mood swings got stronger around the same time. The intense emotions during my bipolar crises tend to "burn" memories into my brain, both from real life and dreams, while my OCD reinforces these memories causing them to last longer and "echo" in dreams.

            I'm sorry to hear, that sounds painful. You've seemed to have found a passion you love. It's so cool that it turns out to be your dreams!
