Dear Sid,

I am so very sorry you went through such trauma as a little girl. ((((((((((LG Sid)))))))))))))

And I'm sorry you're having these awful dreams.

I am not sure if you have a therapist. I'm pretty sure you do. If so, I hope you feel comfortable bringing these things up with T.

At one point I had a book beside my bed. When I'd wake up I'd write a few words about my dream & then beside it, write the emotions. It ended up being interesting, because over the period of, say, a few days, I found the same emotions coming up. VERY different dreams, but the same emotions. I would circle the ones that appeared more than once. I think somehow it helped me to see that certain emotions were somehow being processed in my dreams.

I think it also helped to get the dreams 'out of my head' onto the paper. I think I'll start doing that again.

I think that a very interesting thing about your dreams is that when you hurt people, you feel badly about it right IN your dream! Not just when you wake up.

I send you my love, Kath
