I couldn't wake up from my dream, i could see my eyes open but FEEL them being closed

I dreamed about being in the city i used to live in as a child. I was excited to go to my favorite store that doesn't exist in real life. For some reason it's a reoccurring store in my dreams. Always the same layout and placement. I love getting these dreams because it's rare but whenever it happens it makes me realize I'm dreaming so i can have a lucid dream. I think it started working after the 6th time of the dream reocurring or so.

I was first suspicious at the fact I couldn't type in the name of the place in google maps. It kept navigating me to countries that don't exist or places with similar names in different continents. I thought that maybe I'm just too excited to go and can't use my phone properly. After I finally arrived i realized that I'm dreaming. It hit me that it's the same store again and that it only exists in my dream. After an hour or two with messing around in my dream i realized i have to get up for work. I was really anxious that I'm oversleeping since it felt like forever. I tried waking up but not luck. Here's how it went:

I ran home and sat down next to a mirror. I could see myself with my eyes open, but FEEL that my eyelids were in fact closed in real life. I tried grabbing my eyelids and forcefully opening them but it was really painful. I could feel my eyes in real life open slowly but they were closing themselves with extreme force fighting against my fingers. At some point i got one of my eyes to open slightly, my bedroom shining through the dream screening but I didn't have enough force to keep them open. In the mirror it looked like i had eyes drawn on top of my eyelids all of sudden, new eyes coming from underneath as they open.

I found that really spooky, especially since i saw the reality shine through within my dream. I don't think i was actually opening my eyes as i was dreaming but the fact i could visualize it so well was awesome. I never had that experience before so i really wanted to share.

In case you're wondering how i woke up i imagined i had a really abusive partner and as he was about to beat me up i actually woke up immediately. I know it's fucked up but it's the only awful thing i could come up with at the moment under all that stress. Giving myself a bunch of stress in emergency situations like this always works.

Päckchen automatisch auf meinen Namen addressiert... Ich habe nie einen Kaufvertrag mit der Verkäuferin abgeschlossen

Hallo ihr lieben, mir ist was super seltsames passiert.

Ich habe heute mehrere Päckchen bekommen. Habe ein Päckchen aus Österreich gekauft. Inhalt: eine Mütze und Gürtel. Verkäuferin hat die Sachen richtig verpackt, Päckchen war vollständig, Sachen genauso wie beschrieben.

Ich habe zunächst weitere Päckchen aufgemacht. Plötzlich nehme ich aus einem Vinted Päckchen ein Kinderbuch raus.

Ich gehe meine Bestellungen durch: alles was ich bestellt habe ist angekommen. Es gab ein Päckchen extra. Ich bin alle User im Chat durchgegangen. Ich habe nie ein Kidnerbuch bestellt. Plötzlich fällt mir auf, dass es sich um ein weiteres Päckchen von der gleichen Nutzerin handelt, die ich am Anfang erwähnt habe. Es ist super seltsam, weil:

  1. Ich habe das richtige Päckchen, was ich gekauft habe, bekommen

  2. Ich habe trotz einmaligen Kaufs ein zweites Päckchen von der gleichen Person mit zusätzlichen Ware bekommen

  3. Die Marke ist über System mit meinem Namen generiert worden, obwohl ich es nicht gekauft habe. Verstehe nicht wie mein Name auf die Marke gekommen ist!!

Was mache ich in der Situation? Wie ist es überhaupt möglich, dass meine Adresse auf ein fremdes Päckchen generiert wird? Hat jemand schon sowas erlebt??

Gibt es noch Rabatte und Sonderaktionen?

Hab glaube ca. 2024 öfter gekauft auf Vinted das war kurz nachdem die Franzosen und Italiener mit der DE Seite verbunden wurden. Weiß noch als die ersten Tage nach dem Update lag der Versand über System so bei 1-2€. Gibt es solche Aktionen noch oder eher nicht mehr? Weiß man was davon?

Paket zu spät verschickt

Hallo ihr lieben :)

Hatte leider nicht so gute Kommunikation mit einer Verkäuferin. Verkäuferin hat den Artikel am letzten Tag verschickt, kurz vor meinem Urlaub und ich hatte keine mögliche die Bestellung zu storieren. Ich bin jetzt leider nicht mehr da und kann das Päckchen nicht abholen. (Keiner von uns ist böse)

Gibt es eine Möglichkeit die Aufbewahrung der Sendung zu verlängern? (Hermes) Ich habe mit der Verkäuferin abgesprochen, dass ich das Päckchen sonst jetzt nicht abhole und den Artikel nach meinem Urlaub nochmal kaufe, die Aufbewahrungsfrist zu verlängern wäre aber natürlich schöner.

My first Tattoo reveal :)

It took about 5 hours. I was expecting it to be a horrible experience, but it didn't hurt that bad at all. The worst part was the shading since the outlines were so close to eachother so my whole skin was irritated already. I've been wanting it for 3 years now but never had the time or money to get it. I'm im love! Done by Darya at Vean Tattoo in Bremen, Germany.

Dreaming about being so tired i pass out and fall asleep within my dream

Sometimes I will dream about my everyday life then get so tired in my dream that I feel like a walking zombie trying not to pass out from exhaustion.

​

Today for example i had a dream where i was taking a train back home at night time and i was so tired that my eyes kept rolling back at a train station and i had to fight my body to keep them open. I kept tripping, my arms hanging and my head spinning. I remember passing out on a train station and actually falling asleep in my dream then waking up about 5 minutes later and not feeling as tired anymore. It felt like actual sleep too.

​

Anyone else keep having recurring dreams where you pass out and HAVE to take a nap? Where you have to fight against you passing out from exhaustion? Anyone know why this happens?

What backpack will match my style?

I'm alternative (a little mix of everything but mainly black) and need a new practical backpack. I have a black kanken one with rainbow arms as of now which i had since 7th grade. I love it and it fits my aesthetic very well but it's way too small and impractical so I'm thinking to switching to a proper backpack. I would take it everywhere with me which leads me to a problem that popular brands will probably clash with my style. Alternative folks what brand would you recommend me for a good quality, stylish, big backpack? I know Adidas is a very common brand within the subculture but I don't know if it would look "off"

Advice needed: Will i survive my tattoo appointment?

I just booked in my first serious tattoo appointment. I have 3 tattoos 2 of which are self inflicted stick and pokes on my knee and my ankle and the third was made by my family friend with a tattoo gun also on my ankle. All tattoos felt close to nothing.

​

Yesterday i finally broke the ice and booked an appointment for a first big serious tattoo under my breasts (on my ribcage) made by a professional artist. I didn't really think much of it when i booked it but now it clicked that this might actually hurt. Do you think it's a bad idea for the first tattoo? Anyone got a similar or the same placement and can describe the pain? Could one even consider it enjoyable maybe?

​

For reference i have pretty good pain tolerance. I work in a veterinary field and am pretty much immune to bites or deep cat scratches. I also have 8 facial piercings all of which i took very well. Somehow I'm still worried that the tattoo will hurt a lot. Do tattoo artists use numbing creams in emergency situations? Can i reschedule the appointment if i feel like it's too much? Is it disrespectful to come in and not let the artist finish their work in case I can't do it in one sitting?

Toning yellow roots with hairdye?

I have really dark hair. Bleaching it repedately doesn‘t lift the hair any more than level 10. I remember trying to dye my hair lavender and it turned out grey. I simply suck at bleaching.

Would it be possible to tone my hair with lavender hair dye to achieve grey and put darker blue on top of it so the color doesn‘t come out grey/green? Or will the first hair dye cause the blue one not to stick?

I had denim blue and moody violet by directions in mind.

Wollte eigentlich online bestellen, habe aber gehört, dass die sich beim gehen komisch und schwer anfühlen. Würde die gerne doch in einem Laden anprobieren und ggf. auch kaufen. Werden die irgendwo in Bremen oder der Nähe in einem Laden verkauft?

My dad started showing unusual neurological symptoms that terrify us. He's currently on a waiting list to see a neurologist so it will take a few months before a specialized doctor can actually help us out. I want to prepare for what he could potentially have and if I should worry about the months wait in case it's something very serious that could need immediate attention.

My dad is nearly 49 years old, I'd probably guess 180cm and 110kg (overweight), non smoker, drinks every saturday. Takes multiple blood pressure medication due to losing his spleen in a car crash years ago. When he was a baby he had meningitis at birth which nearly killed him as a newborn. It resulted in him being partially deaf but no other neurological disorders were seen throughout the years. Neurological problems don't run in our family, just diabetes.

My mom told me that they went to a doctor (now on a waiting list to see a neurologist) because he's been acting very strange at times for the past two weeks. Within these two weeks he had 3 incidents which terrified her and people around him. All of them happened at work in the middle of his break. I'd say 5-6 days apart.

First incident was during a team meeting with other coworkers. My dad was joking around with his friend and my mom. All of sudden he zoned out and ignored his surroundings completely. Almost like a system restart my mom described. People kept hitting his shoulder trying to wake him up and apologizing, thinking he's offended from one of the jokes ignoring others on purpose. After a while of standing doing nothing he went back to his desk and pretended to do work stuff. After about 10 minutes he blinked repeatedly and seemed to "wake up". My mom asked about what he was on about but he couldn't recall anything. He was just as confused as she was and thought she made the story up.

Second time was also around his friends during a break at work. He was joking around with his friend. All of sudden he pulled out a piece of paper and a pen and asked her for a word. She laughed saying "haha any word? Like what?". He said "give me any word!" To which she replied "okay why not butter". She looked at him but he switched to the blank stare again all of sudden. After that he just kept screaming aggressively at her to "give her any word". After a while he calmed down and put the paper and pen back into his pocket. When my mom asked yet again what the joke was supposed to be about, he seemed confused and didn't understand what she meant. He doesn't recall taking out the pen and paper either.

Third time my mom can't recall as well. I was just told she had to grab his hand like a toddler and drag him into the car because she was in a rush and he froze, staring into nothingness and wouldn't go home with her.

I tried researching a bit but the answers terrified me and i feel like none of the symptoms matched quite well. Epilepsy, mini strokes and brain tumors sound terrifying honestly, considering my dad isn't even that old yet and they all seem pretty much disabling or deadly. We just wanna know what we should watch out for before getting proper help. We're especially scared for our dad because my mom worries it'll happen during a car drive and kill him. My dad doesn't believe he is sick and thinks we're overreacting as he doesn't recall doing any of this.
