I had a dream the other night that my house was being demolished by giant waves that kept crashing around it weakening it , and I could feel the floor weakening under my feet. I was yelling to my dad and sister to run faster, but they wouldn't listen. I never found my cat either. I'm surprised I didn't wake my roomate up, I must have been yelling outloud.
That was the not so crazy, crazy dream. I had one a few days before that, which I think was caused mostly by my anxiety, stress and sadness from my grabdmother passing away not too long before then. I was so screwed up and out of character for my subconscious to even come up with something like that, it scared me!
Then there are the usual re-occuring dreams that I have, like being pregnant or actually being in labor, or my teeth falling out, or being jolted awake after dreaming that I'm suddenly falling.
Why don't I have normal people dreams, or are these normal?
I think that maybe I need to find some constructive ways to deal with my stress. My subconsious needs a break from processing all of these crazy ideas that are obviously coming out in my dreams.
So this is what I've been thinking, everything that you dream about, every bit of information, every detail, they all had to work their way into your mind and deep into your subconscious somehow. Then when you dream all of these thoughts and emotions get randomly thrown together in a fucked up representation of your inner thoughts and memmories. So no matter how screwed up my dreams are, everything that I dream of is alreayd something I've already thought of or absorbed through my surroundings, and my subconscious is just chewing it all up and spitting out incomplete parts mixed with other incomplete parts of those thoughts and memories in the form of a scarry or screwed dream while I sleep. So should I feel like a crazy person knowing that everything I dream, no matter how screwed up or freaky, was something that I did think up whehter I realized it or not. I feel like I can't control my thoughts, that no matter how normal I feel, my dreams are bringing to to surface things I didn't even know I thought about!
This post in itself sounds like that post of a crazy person. I'm going to get back to work now, for my own good!
