Hi, new to the forum!
I'd like to introduce myself with a big "HI" and give you a little info about myself and the dreams I have.
Ever since I was in my teens I've always had dreams about my family and friends and once or twice myself. I guess they would be precognitive in that they would tell me of something that could happen. I've dreamed of a cousin who passed away, and he did...I've dreamed about my animals dying, and they soon would..I even had a dream about a missing child and I saw how he died and "watched' it as it happened at the hands of a kidnapper...it was agonizing later on when I heard it on the news that they had found his body..and it made me feel absolutely sick, grief stricken and depressed.
As you can see, they are not always good dreams...in fact I was plagued with night terrors as a child to the point I had to sleep with my parents until I was about 9 or 10 and they finally had it and kicked me out into my own room, which is completely understandable. But through the years I have always told myself to just forget about it...if I have a bad dream, "it was only a dream", right?
I've finally realized that as I age, I'm able to recognize what is "serious" and what is just a bad dream.
I have an older brother....and about 2 months ago I woke up crying because I had a dream he passed away and I was trying to reach him on his phone and his wife walked up to me and said he was "gone, he died."...I woke up out of my dream crying and called my sister and asked her where he was, how was he doing and told her to please call him and tell him to go to the doctor immediately, or he wouldn't be around for long.(I didn't because I was afraid he would think I'm a nut!) She did and HE did and thankfully so....he was on the verge of a serious stroke...he was 90% clogged in an artery that goes through his neck (carotid??) and had the surgery to fix it about a few days later. I saw him and said "I'm glad you listened"...he said, "I'm glad I did too"...So I just have a "knowing" of what could happen....when I wake up crying and the urgency of contacting that person...the vividness of a dream. I just sort of know.
Well, hope my introduction wasn't too long....but I'm glad to be here with like-minds....it's hard to talk to people about it and because I don't want anybody thinking I'm a "kook"!! I'm just as normal as the next, just have dreams that aren't always good to experience. Thanks for reading...and if I can help anybody or exchange information through experience I think I can have a better understanding of them.
