6 Replies

Past few nights had some nightmares that's were kind of weird and some very emotional and then one that I'm not sure if it was real or just a dream..

1st dream the other night was just to damn weird it was about dead people at their viewing and it was just there heads in a lunch plate for catering, like they had rice and meats and then their heads just placed in the plate for people to view them , lmao holy shit ...I was like wtf talkin about a freakin nightmare ...

Lastnite had a dream that I left my daughter in the car to run in to do something somewhere and then hours later someone reminded me so I was very emotional and panicky and hurt that I left her in the car , so i ran fast back to the car and gracefully she was ok , but sweating so much my heart was shattered in my dream, i woke up and wanted to hold her so tight and tell her i love her so much... i would never do such a thing but in my dream it did happen..

Last dream was also lastnite in the same dream, i was massaging myself , idk why i would be doing this but literally i could see my back side as i was standing looking down at myself , but it wasnt scary in my dream it was more like whoa,..I felt like why am I out of my body...I wonder if this was also a dream or did I realy leave my body, I wasnt laying on the spot or in the place I sleep in so I'm not sure if this is part of my nightmare ..

Anyone have similar dreams,

Some of them are very scary and yet just weird like the viewing of dead people in lunch plates lmao, 🤣🤣 sorry it was scary in my dreams but funny now because it sounds like a scary movie or something. But I'm glad you know what I'm talking about or going through

Woah ha! I love dreams and I believe we can learn from all of them even ones that seem bad are useful. I love trying to figure out the symbolism and meanings of things in the dream. I don’t remember my dreams these days. The last I recall were of bears chasing me all over the place and me protecting myself and my family fromit... I was scared but I get less scared as the dreams continue to come...I think the bear symbolizes my fight with the fear/anxiety.

Nightmares are based on your thoughts during the day, whether that is what you read or see on TV, or have seen in the past, or what is running around inside your head.

There is so much death and violence on the TV, fact or fiction it is little wonder we are becoming depressed. I used to download films as I cannot TV where I am and got about 15 or 20 good ones throughout the year, but these past few years it has been 1 or 2, the rest being mindless and continuous violence, often extreme and graphic.

So I now I search Youtube and look at some of the old films and TV programs, especially comedies, the same with music, the old stuff. The old stuff is much kinder IMO, it was about art, not $$$$s.

That is a start, then I look for positives during my day, I drive through Thai villages and look at people with nothing and they are smiling. I am sure the same is true when you get out of the smoke in the UK. Less is definately more, as Neil Diamond wrote "how much baby do we really need?"

You have to fill you mind with happiness and possitivity during the day....and leave politics alone, you will never win against these barstewards.

With part of you mind cleaned up begin cleaning up on your illness thoughts, find the positives there, both with yourself by being kind and others in your life.

Just my way of coping and I don't have nightmares, although when I was trying wean myself of sleeping tablets, I kept dreaming I was awake and couldn't sleep...Ha ha! My wife and the clock told me.

Good luck
