Strange Dreams

[countrygirl]

Can someone help me with this?? I have a repeating dream, but each time it's a different place and scenario (sp?).

I dream that I am at a mall, or school, or restaurant or some other public place, and need to use the restroom. It takes me forever to find one and when I do, it turns into an ENORMOUS thing with dozens of toilets with no stalls and each toilet is, lets just say VERY soiled. I can never find a clean one, and when I try to leave the bathroom, I am lost and can't get back.

Does this make any sense?

That is strange, could it be that you really have to go to the bathroom (when you wake up do you have to go)?

I have a lot of strange dreams, too. I can't really remember them vividly after I wake up. They aren't nightmares, they are just really weird.

I actually do have to go potty when I wake up. I don't have a very strong bladder. Having kids will do that!!!

I usually remember dreams so vividly that sometimes I forget that certain things weren't real.

Many times dreams don't really mean anything ... and the times they do it may not have anything to do with the actual things in the dream (like the bathroom in this case) It could mean that you are afraid about something or feel trapped in an uncomfortable position? It could be any number of things.

Well, i used to have one reaccuring dream that I was driving on a mtn road, drove off the edge, and then landed on another road. This would happen over and over. THat was durring my custody case.

I also have one every few months where I am in some dark place, and being attacked. I then am shot several times, and am still alive. I never feel any pain, but lay there still so that they think I am dead.

Hmmm, I think I might have an underlying issue that I dont' know about.

Maybe, I am no dream expert.

The strangest, most vivid dream I ever had and it only happened once was shortly before I was going to move in with my former BF. In the dream I was on the upper level patio and the house gave way and collapsed. I fell to the ground (with that sinking, falling feeling in your stomach during which you usu. awake, but I didn't) I hit the ground right on my back, I actually felt the impact and it knocked the wind out of me. I immediately got up and began running through the woods, I felt as if I was being chased. I then woke up, it was so real, the thought of that dream still gives me the chills.

That BF and I broke up about a year and a half later, maybe that dream was a sign. I probably should have paid attention to it, but none the less, everything seems to have worked out anyway.
