> Hi. Today I had a scary dream. I dreamt my mood disorder got me in trouble with the law and we were dealing with a cop and my father was there and so was my mother. (In real life my mother doesn't know about my mood disorder - I keep it a closely guarded secret.) Anyway, my criminal problems seem to have had something to do with a kitchen timer in the shape of a penguin - you set it by turning the penguin's head! Arent' dreams weird? :) And the cop couldn't figure out how to set it. Silly though it was, the feeling of menace was real, the feeling I'd done something terribly wrong and didn't know how or what. Great way to start the day. Thanks for listening.

> EmmeWow, that's an interesting dream. My thoughts are that the reason the copy couldn't set the penguin timer is because it represents that some authority figure in your life can't figure out you, but is really trying to, and this might scare you.
Dreams can mean so many different things, but they must be healthy in the sense that they probably help get some garbage (fears, etc.) out of our self-conscious.
