why are my dreams...

[sharptech]

why are my dreams so overwelming... i often find myself spending half the day thinking about the dream i had the night b4... my dreams are always soo...whats the word... challenging. i always have to overcome somthing, sometimes ill be on a ledge in the middle of nowhere, and the only way to survive is by walking across this thin ladder to get to the other side. and even there, there is no escape route. or ill be in the jungle with old friends that i haven spoken with in a long time and then ill get eatin by a shark in the jungle or some crazy **** like that...i cant remember the last time i had a peacful dream...not even a "good dream" if u know what i mean, lol

Hi,
It is the price you pay for an adventutous life.
Perhaps you're overactive in the daytime and need these crazy dreams to wake you in the morning. However I must say that you have many more peaceful and uninteresting dreams but don't remember them!

Your dreams I would say are a reflection of your fears, anxiety's, feeling of not being able to escape or get out of the emotional space that you are in. If this is due to circumstances please find someone that you feel comfortable with to talk to about your feelings as what happens is they bottle up and like a fizzy bottle of coke it eventually has to explode ~ cant keep it pushed down indefiniteley. If however it is more chemical there are other options you can discuss with a doctor. Maybe you might need a bit of both? Take care of yourself as at the end of the day, you are the only one that can make that move. Others can just advise you and walk with you but you need to take that step.
It is good that you are questioning your dreams as this is a very good way to get to know yourself and what you are trying to tell yourself.
In your dream you are trying to overcome it so I would say that is the first positive thing.
Your challenges in your dream are consuming you, so translate those challenges into whats happening for you.
In life work out what 'escape routes' 'places of safety' or 'options' you can put into play.
Take care and carry on questioning.
