random!@#% Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I have just been informed that while I'm sleeping and there is a slight disturbance my eyes will suddenly become wide open. I do not remember this at all and I am pretty sure I never was actually wide awake at this time. How is this possible? Is this common? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incendia Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I don't know about the wide open eyes...[seems odd to me...] but those eye movement <disturbances> are natural. It's called Rapid Eye Movement <REM> and is the stage of sleep where you dream. [You don't dream through the entire process of sleep like some believe.] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
random!@#% Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 I heard somewhere that you actually dream in short repeated intervals. So you dream for a little then stop, and then start dreaming again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
