You just have to realize that you can, and should make use of your dreams, both when you sleep, and you're awake.
You shouldn't feel lonely or isolated, because you always have direct access to all the other personalities, anywhere in space, time, and other planes. You just have to learn to do it.
That's why you are here, to practice creating reality while awake, dreaming, daydreaming.
Learn to get in contact with your subconscious, and through it to access further knowledge and guidance.
Are you learning anything from your night dreams? They are gems of symbolic knowledge and guidance. Those symbols are different from one person to another, even from one dream to another, and your inner source of knowledge and guidance will help you make sense of your dreams.

Does the idea that 'this place' is a Dream upset you?
Miss Hepburn,
For me? Not at all!
Where would we be without giving ourselves, or being inspired by someone loving us enough to give, The Gift of Dreams...
...especially since we chose to avail ourselves of the opportunities to experience our own answers to your 11 questions (and to meet our fellow SF dreamers here), as well as to find answers to our own questions?

That was very nice.
**realizefun - Did you see that from guthrio - 'The Gift of Dreams'.
A little shift in perspective and suddenly from a horror we
can see it as a 'gift'. (Ha or playground!)

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Do any of the ideas: "Dreams are real", "What one experiences in a 'dream' is really experienced", "There are no other experiences than what one experiences in one's 'dreams' as being 'true'" upset or bother you? Me (subjectively) thinks the lady 'protests' 'too much' in the foregoing regards.

fear of dream
There will be fear if one is enjoying. But if one's dream is horror show full of pain,one may be happy knowing it is dream (Buddha's sarvam Dukham sarvam kshanikam theory).
The fear comes with the transientness associated with the word dream. people fear discontinuity which is invariably associated with dreams.
By thinking it an opportunity make real I mean making it great making a deep impact on society. I do not mean one can remove inherent physical barriers.

Yeah of course I can see that... but the consequences that this would be a dream has isn’t very nice to me. Maybe something has to yet manifest... something that makes me less bothered...
For me it isn’t about whether the dream is nice or not. Of course, a nice dream is better. Or: I 100% prefer a nice dream. However, it seems kinda horror even though it could be a nice dream... nobody is real anymore when you get to 100% control. My control had grown in this lifetime, maybe not for the external world but rather for the internal one. And I’m slowly adapting. This inner source is growing and expanding. What does that mean? Can I even comprehend? It’s so big... I don’t mean my control, rather the thing I’m experiencing. It’s everywhere! And I just can’t help but feel horrified by it... it has something scary. I guess something to be solved.
Maybe I’ll find my way into acceptance. Idk. For now I just want to get “out of here” and wake up “outside the dream”. But honestly I think that might be even more scary. I don’t know what kind of crazy experiment this all is...
Maybe something else will make me feel a bit safer. But simply a shift of thoughts won’t do. This thing feels like extremely uncanny for me.

This is reality not a dream but you can be blinded by your own delusions to where you lose tuch with really and are stuck in your own delusions

An interesting theory to think about… The life you are experiencing right now may in fact just be flashbacks during the last 10 minutes of brain activity that continues after death. It may seem like a whole lifetime, but that's because time works differently in dreams.

The brain only functions at a level capable of producing a coherent conscious experience for about 20 or 30 seconds after its oxygen supply is cut off. That's why NDEs are of such interest and especially establishing when they occur. It's why cardiac arrest patients are of particular interest.
