Well, I dreamed last night that I was posting to you and you got angry with me. You let me know by posting back----don't worry--you were civil(no PBC from the dream police). I was just wondering--am I spending too much time on babble or is there something you want to tell me? :)

Well, you aren't picking up anything subliminal from me. :) I have no underlying anger with you.

I have been known to let people know when I'm angry, civilly of course. :) Maybe your dream self just had that on its mind for some reason. Or maybe you've seen some angry posts directed at my therapist lately.

 

Weird dreams mean anything??

sorry to jump in here. but i'm going to follow the topic of weird dreams.
i had a terrible dream last night that i had head lice. i've never had it before but in my dreams my head itched so bad and people kept telling me not to scratch and finally when i did i brought my hands down and looked at them and i had all these wierd bugs under my fingernails squirming around it was HORRIBLE, and its like that started it and i couldn't stop and every time i scratched it's like i created more, they were starting to burrow into my scalp so i'd scrape harder and even more would come out, i was running around like crazy trying to get them out of my head...

any meaning or just weird?

I watched this thing on Oprah that explained dreams. So now I'm an expert, (ha, ha!).

From what they said, it all depends on what each detail means to you. For instance, this one woman kept having dreams about chewing bubble gum. She would blow a bubble and it would end up all over her face. The more she tried to get it off her face, the more she would get insnared in it. The (whoever the expert was) asked her how this made her feel. She says she feels entangled, trapped. He ask if she feels trapped by anything in her life. And she did. They quickly figured out why she was dreaming this.

Basically he said, you can't rely on interpretations that are the same for everybody. It depends on what the visual means to you. Like, B2chica may feel overwhelmed by something she can't handle (being overtaken by lice and bugs which totally freaked her out). Or Bobby dreaming Dinah was mad at him. Is there someone in his life he's worried is upset with him? Or maybe he's afraid of unintentionally angering someone (inadequacy)?

I had a recurring dream for a long, long time that my Mom made me go back to finish high school (in reality, I dropped out and got my GED.) I get there and I'm out of place, I can't find my locker, I can't find my class, I end up being late and being too embarrassed to walk in. So I just hide out somewhere. My mom is insanely controlling and almost drove me to a nervous breakdown before I got away from her. So I think it was partly that. But when I think of how I felt in the dream: confused, alone, not fitting in, loss of control, I realize that it pertained to MANY aspects of my life.

I've also had these annoyingly repetitive dreams, like when I worked at a grocery store and dreamed of scanning things over and over and over. That's all it was, endlessly scanning items. I think this was partly from the monotony of my job, and partly about being unhappy with my life and that I was not going anywhere. My T said these were anxiety dreams.

Well, I hope this makes sense. I've never been able to describe this to make any sense to anyone.

These Dreams - Heart

Spare a little candle
Save some light for me
Figures up ahead
Moving in the trees
White skin in linen
Perfume on my wrist
And the full moon that hangs over
These dreams in the mist

Darkness on the edge
Shadows where I stand
I search for the time
On a watch with no hands
I want to see you clearly
Come closer than this
But all I remember
Are the dreams in the mist

CHORUS:
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

Is it cloak 'n' dagger
Could it be spring or fall
I walk without a cut
Through a stained glass wall
Weaker in my eyesight
The candle in my grip
And words that have no form
Are falling from my lips

CHORUS

There's something out there
I can't resist
I need to hide away from the pain
There's something out there
I can't resist

The sweetest song is silence
That I've ever heard
Funny how your feet
In dreams never touch the earth
In a wood full of princes
Freedom is a kiss
But the prince hides his face
From dreams in the mist

CHORUS

CHORUS
