| Text of work or job-related dream reports from participants in the Demographic Survey 2012. Exact question: Have you ever dreamed about your job or a situation at work? |
I had a dream that the campaign I was working on was behind in the polls, and I only had a day to push my candidate ahead. As much as I tried, everything just went too slow, and I became extremely stressed that my body wouldn't coordinate quickly enough, and I woke up right before we lost. I think that it has a lot to do with distress from a new job coupled with the paralysis from sleeping. I notice that, if I'm attacked in a dream, I can never fight back, or my kicks and punches are slow and futile, that it has to do with part of my brain knowing that my body is actually in bed and temporarily paralyzed. But I don't know, it's all hypothesis anyway. |

| Text of visitation dream reports from participants in the Demographic Survey 2012 and other sources. Exact question used in the Demographic Survey 2012: Have you ever dreamed about someone who is dead appearing as if they were still alive? |
I don't really understand. If you mean that a dead guy still looks at and talks to me, then I have had a dream that involved that, however I don't remember the context. I think he was part of my subconscious talking me through a situation because there was no one else to do so. If you mean otherwise, I had a dream that my brother's twin was still alive, and thinking about two of my brother is terrifying. |

| Text of lucid or self-awareness dream reports from participants in the Demographic Survey 2012 and other sources. Exact question used in the Demographic Survey 2012: Have you ever dreamed that you were aware of being within a dream? |
I had a dream that I was an FBI agent. We raided this warehouse where a mob/drug kingpin/insert bad guy here was having a meeting. When we went in, we took fire. My partner was hit in the shoulder, and something about the nature of his spin made me realize that I was in a dream. I immediately had "mind powers," where I was able to disarm and subdue the mobsters/gangsters/whatever. I raised them all into the air in much the same fashion that Magneto does in the X-Men movies. But in the end, I just played along, flash forwarded to some medal ceremony and then woke up. I never even considered what the dream meant when actually controlling the dream was a more incredible occurrence. |
