I frequently have a dream that all my teeth get very loose then fall out. I am left holding them in my hand. There is no pain or no blood, just a handful of teeth.

I also frequently have a dream that I am somewhere in public and am nude and the rest of the dream is spent trying to "cover up" my naughty bits and get to a place where my clothes are.

And as to the OP, I still have a dream similar to that from time to time.

I have sleep apnea and have been using a CPAP machine for about 10 months. My dreams have become very vivid since I started using the machine and I tend to remember them more.

I wish someone would invent a device that captures your dreams so that you could project them onto a screen....that would make for some great viewing

We all know that wasn't a dream.

I used to have that same dream every once in a while! It sucked. I always wondered when I woke up if if was grinding my teeth in the dream because it felt like I was like pressing down on them or something as I dreamed and then I'd feel a mouth full of loose teeth/broken teeth in the dream. I haven't had that dream in many years though.

realizing one of my classes didn't qualify and I'm 3 credits short


This is the dream I always have and it comes in 2 variations.

The first variation is that I need 3 more college credits to graduate. It's actually rooted in reality as I took a year off from college when I had 1 more class left to graduate (got a great job opportunity and I was struggling in the class; I went back and finished a year later). That dream itself isn't very vivid, but it always takes me about 5 minutes once I wake up to figure out if it was a dream or if I really still need one more class.

The second variation is weirder and much more vivid. I dream that I'm missing one high school credit, and my high school and college diplomas are invalid until I go back and take one class in high school. This dream freaks me out a bit because I'm really nostalgic about my high school days, and it feels weird to go back almost 20 years later without my friends.

Same

I'm 37 and have exact same dream about once a month. Finally decide to attend class and it's the day of final.

Freak out, wake up relieved that I'm 37 and no longer have to take classes.

At least once a year.

Haven't been a student for over 15 years.

I get the one where I realized during finals week that I had registered for a class and didn't attend all semester, due to not realizing I was registered to begin with.

Also the one where I have to go back to high school to retake a course because someone realized after the fact that the ones I took originally didn't count towards credits needed to get into college.

I haven't had either in a while, but I'm sure I will now after reading this thread.

I've been out of college 16 years now and I actually had a dream a week or two ago about missing a final exam and not being able to graduate.

I don't ever remember having the classic missing class or any of the variations involving missing or forgetting the final exam.

Full disclosure, I only remember a small part of my dreams and then only once or twice a month at maximum.

And usually then it's nonsensical things about work.

I used to have a dream that i never graduated from college by not passing the last final. Only to wake up and question if i got my degree. Since i left my last stressful job the dream has not reappeared. I think this dream seems to pop up for most people that may have a deadline, feel they are under performing on their job or under a lot of stress at work. Looking back i probably should have had my framed degree next to the bed when i woke to relieve any doubt when i woke up . Oh and i graduated 13 years ago from college.

After missing a real final, those dreams have no effect on me

Out of college for 25 years and I get it about once every 3 months. It's late November and suddenly I realize that I had gone to a class in August that I've forgotten for months. I can't even recall the building or the days and time it takes place.

Both of these.

I'm often dressed with a shirt but no pants or underwear. Some times if I blink hard in the dream I can obscure my junk.

I graduated from college 20 years ago and I still have these recurring dreams.

I also have the dreams about my teeth falling out/breaking off.

Also have dreams that I can jump off the ground and float/fly.

I stopped those but recently I dreamt I was moving back to my hometown. I thought "why did I give up on life?"

get something similar every so often. In mine, I am enrolled in classes that I never went to. Then at the end I can't graduate

I graduated college in 2007. I had the "oh shot I forgot my exam" dream around finals time all the time for at least the first 5 years. Every once in a while I'll have them and it always seems so real that I have to remind myself I've been out of college for a decade when I wake up.
