So the title says it all really. Sometimes I have dreams/nightmares that I’ve had many times before.
For years I’ve been having a few reoccurring dreams that feel so real, everytime.
I’m in a swimming pool, the only one there and then all of a sudden the pool cover has trapped me underwater and I’m struggling and panicking without air and I can’t help but swallow it. The water hurts but it’s not all that bad.(Obviously I know it would probably be worse in reality). Then I always end up waking up shivering and shaking without anything more happening in the dream.
Well anyway, I wondered if anyone else also had some rather strange dreams that you just keep dreaming over and over?

I’ve had some dreams about the past that I sometimes have a difficult time shaking. Other dreams are overly complex and seem to be right out of a suspense novel. Sometimes, while in a dream, I realize that I’m dreaming. Oddly, it doesn’t necessarily end the dream.
Ahh so you have dreams or rather nightmares about things that have really happened to you? That makes sense.
It’s a bit different that you realise you’re dreaming though, that’s never happened to me, but then again, I don’t really normally remember my dreams, except for the recurring ones.
It’s amazing how your subconscious picked up on the fact it wasn’t real though!
It’s very ‘interesting’ to be caught in the middle of a thought process that you know isn’t real… but that also doesn’t end once you know it’s a dream. I’ll finally wake up and say, “That dream… again!” Odd.
You say “interesting”, i say it sounds a little bit surreal and scary!!! I only hope you’re not scared by it though 🙂
i did! i had the same dream over and over! i dreamed a eat a giant marshmallow! and in the morning my pillow was gone! this happened over and over! and i gained 30 pounds!! OK i’m joking 🙂 i’ve heard of that! there are people that claim they can tell you why! i’m just a novice but i’ll give it a try, your dream tells me you feel trapped!!! that will be $50 please! 🙂 no more jokes!!! do you feel trapped? in order to fix that you have to feel unstrapped! so what do you do? think about what is bothering you, and deal with it! not everything can be fixed but you can deal with somethings better if you understand them.
one of my bad examples:
i’m 16! i’m not an adult legally! i’m not in control of my life!!
OK so you are not! but you will be in 2 years! then you can take control! so you know you are going to change things and you will be in control in 2 years, so now you feel you have something to look forward too! you will be in control and have 2 years to get ready 🙂 so now your making plans to succeed thus you accept what’s bothering you and you have a feeling of being in control .
only you know what’s bothering you, identify it accept it and work on it. and pretty soon your swimming towards shore.
Rocketman, i was hoping you’d have something to say 🙂
I love your jokes and examples! And that marshmallow sure sounds like it would have been a good one.
You say it’s $50 but whatever happened to mate rates or get the first one free? Haha 🙂
Hmm I never thought of it like that. Honestly? I’m sure i might have mentioned before that I’m not really aware of reasons or what’s going on too much. Searching within doesn’t help because there’s nothing to search for or maybe I just can’t find it. So who knows? Definitely not me after all. One day when I know, I’ll let you in on it!
Also one extra. I’m a good swimmer, why on earth would i be drowning in the first place hahaha
OK forget the $50! I’LL JUST KEEP DRINKING THIS BATH TUB VODKA! 🙂 life isn’t fair!!!
hmm is that you choosing vodka over money? Haha
