[@TheMadAsshatter], you are perfectly welcome to store recountings of your dreams here as a sort of dream journal. Mind you they will be able to be read by anyone, so do not share anything you do not feel comfortable with. If you are fairly open about it, I just ask that you maintain it at a mature or reasonably inoffensive manner.

Most people, from what I have gathered, experience similar issues with performing actions in dreams or feeling a sense of success or advancement. A lot talk about the "infinite hallway where you run forever" as an example, but fending off something is another distinct one too. I personally believe the complexity of an action, even if well defined in reality, is made more vulnerable in a dream - as with having to use both hands to pull a trigger; as though the more moving parts or changes it causes in reality are just amplified and multiplied in the oddness of a dream. I've heard you can [i]learn[/i] to perform them better by trying with repetition in dreams or even just on a daydreaming level of thinking on them, but I myself have not had an issue with carrying out an intended action so it is a bit foreign to me there.
