it isn't unusual to not remember your dreams, especially if you are taking medication. I use to dream every night, but if I take sleeping pills, I don't remember them as well. I try to remember to write them down early now, before the day gets in the way.

I have lots of falling dreams and many, many therapy dreams. I have to be careful to not mix up what I dreamed I told my therapist and what I actually told him.

Last night I dreamed that I blew into his office, totally ready to let my younger self unload. Just as I took a breath to let it all out, he stopped me and said, "I don't know how to tell you this, but I'm moving. So you might want to hold those thoughts for my replacement. He'll meet you next week and decide if he can work with you." And I was a perfect lady about wishing him luck and I was totally understanding about it all. Then I left and went home and called my mother (who doesn't know I'm in therapy) and told her I had changed my mind and I would cook Thanksgiving for everyone. I don't remember anymore about it except I could feel (still can) myself holding in all the incredibly hurt feeings and making it OK for him to leave me.
