Reoccurring dreams of being drugged and raped. PLEASE help(kind of disturbing beware)

[Sickly Lucid]

I'ma guessing you were sexually assaulted at some point in time, but like you said, you were drugged, so you probably don't remember it in actuality and it's your subconscious telling you that you were raped.

I've also had these dreams, but I was never drugged. I was alive and awake through the entire thing. Two men...

When I fall asleep, I do always feel overwhelmingly exhausted and 'drunk-feeling'. And throughout the days I'm typically always fatigued so your point could be extremely true... thank you for this observation, it seems extremely likely. I'm surprised it hasn't crossed my mind.
Is it normal for dreams to reflect a person's PHYSICAL being? Because I know they pertain to their emotional/mental being the majority of the time, but I've never heard of it being physical. It's a very interesting proposition. I don't know much about dreams at all, which is one reason I'm in a sort of panic.
Thank you very much once again! Many blessings(:

Hi LadyC,
Thanks for your reply.
Many things may and do happen during an 8 hour sleep. It is our dreams that keep us asleep, and wake us in the morning. The subconscious mind closely follws the sleepers physical condition and creates the dream according to the need that arises. Dreaming is a very sophisticated control system. It makes us change sleeping position several times a night, entertains with dream stoies, diverts our attention from small irritations and pains, and most importantly wakes us in the morning.
Only a very small proportion of dreaming relates to the psychological side. However the subconscious uses our past experiences, fears and hopes in creating the dreams.
