mik Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 I have been awake since 5 am today. I had a bad dream. My mom passed away October 31st and I am having a difficult time. I was her care giver as well. I dreamed she was calling my name over and over again. I ran to her bedroom and I couldn't find her. In my dream I threw the covers off the bed looking for her. Suddenly my Dad who passed away three years before said to me "you will think you hear her calling you but it's not" I couldn't see my Dad's face but who else would be in her bed with Her? I woke up crying with a terrible sense of loss and ache in my heart. I don't want to go back to sleep for fear of revisiting that dream. Anyone else have bizarre dreams like This? Is there something wrong with me? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyT Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 There is nothing wrong with you, my dear. This is your unconscious mind working while you sleep, as your conscious brain works during the day, to come to terms with this loss.

kayc Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 I'm sorry, I know it's hard. I wish I had a solution but alas some things are just tough to endure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
