I just had the worst nightmare of my life...

[heatherrae]

All tonight I dreamed about every major mistake I've ever made in my life.

Every dumb argument with my ex-hubbie whom I love dearly that lead to our divorce.

The looks of pain on my mom's face when she was dying of cancer (in my dream voices told me should would have been better at the hospital instead of fulfilling her wishes to die at home).

Cases that I could have handled better.

Which law school I chose.

Boyfriends I shouldn't have wasted my time with.

Going to Florida with the idiot.

ETC.


It was terrible. Remember the scene in the exorcist where the demon was torturing the priest by pretending to be his dead mother and saying "Demi, why did you do this to me? Why did you let me die?" IT WAS THAT BAD.

And to make it worse, the second person to post is HT. Talk about making the nightmare linger ;-)

Hate when that happens, I feel discombobulated the whole day when I have nightmares all night.

Yeah...bleh.


HT does make a good point, though. Perhaps I shouldn't eat a whole onion before bed...lol.

I think I've had one that can top that one. It happened 14 years ago and I can remember it like yesterday. The demon came and paid me a visit. I stood up to him and he left me alone.

it did take all night, it seemed.

sounds like a coma

I used to have really terrible nightmares, night terrors, etc. when I was a kid, to the point that I would try to stay awake for days.

Finally, a friend of my father's ex-wife. (Stepmother number one. my dad has been married 4 times) took me into her house and did this little ritual thing and said "You will not have any more nightmares." I don't know if it was the ritual or just the strong power of suggestion, but I didn't have another nightmare until I was well into my twenties. Still, they are never as bad as when I was a kid. Weird, huh?

Oh yeah, I have no doubts that it is the pregnancy. This dream was what I guess I will label "the remorse dream." lol. The most powerful feelings of loss and remorse all welled up. ugh.

Lucid dreaming happens in real time, all other dreams don't last long

there was no demon in my dream, just a cataloguing of mistakes I've made.

Demon dreams suck.

 

[the_clockwork]

dreaming of demons symbolizes you being the odd man out, being picked on or tortured!

thats like a near death experience

It was like that. It was like my life being played out on a movie screen, but only mistakes and with a harsh critic telling me all I've done wrong in life.

keep looking forward. pretty soon you will have a little life in your hands and all that in the past wont matter. everything you do from now on will be for your child. its amazing how once you have a kid your priorities change and you don't care about what you have and get but more about what you can give to your child.

Yeah, I have already made that shift in my head a bit. I've noticed that I'm way more focused on growing roots somewhere, financial stuff, traditions. Whereas before, I was more focused on travel, adventure, and romance.

yup, but seriously right when they are born and they put the baby in your hands its like a switch gets turned on and all of a sudden it hits you, you will forever be called mommy no matter how old the baby gets, your mommy.

I actually love that idea of the permanancy of that. I probably, until now, have lived my life too transiently.
