Do people with normal hearing “hear things” in their dreams?
andy c asked:
I was born with limited hearing, so I can hear fine if I wear hearing aids, but I can barely hear anything when I am not wearing them. I don’t wear my hearing aids when I’m sleeping, and I don’t recall being able to hear anything in dreams. I can still dream of talking and stuff like I’ll dream up a conversation with someone and stuff, but I dont actually feel like I’m hearing what the other person is saying; I just know what they’re saying because its kind of me thats making them say whatever they are saying (sorry if that was confusing). Basically, I am not completely deaf and I can still hear (albeit softly), and I wear hearing aids which makes my hearing almost as good as most peoples, but when I’m in bed I take off my hearing aids so I basically dont hear anything since no one else is in the room with me. I was just wondering if people with normal hearing can actually feel the sound in their ears when they dream.

question at end
If you mean the external sounds that may occur in the room were the person is sleeping then the answer is possibly yes, but they might not know it unless they wake up to the sound.
If you mean the sounds in ones dreams then my answer would be no since the dream is occuring in our heads or subconsciousness and because the dimension that the the body of the person that is dreaming the dream is in, there is not any sound actually occuring. Of course there are those dreams that you wake up at the same exact moment that a sound(maybe loud) is occuring in the dream.
However the dimension that the dream is occuring in, I do not have an answer for but I would like to think so but I do not believe in the need to.
I would be interested to know if you personally have ever had a dream occur were you woke up from the sound or at the exact time that the sound occured in your dream, being that you have an impairment, perhaps then we may have the answer!
