Sleeping is for Pussies
Everyone has bad dreams from time to time. Do you ever get those kind of bad dreams that when you wake up you are still freaking the fuck out.... and you can't shake it off for an hour or more? In the last week and a half, I have had 4 such incidents. Nightmares from being in a prison without walls to losing my kids- (not losing as in taken away, losing like losing your keys or an earring.) Cobras and earthquakes in aquarium rooms... Just fucked up unrealistic stupid shit. Holy Hell! Save me- I'm stuck in a "B" Movie!
When I wake up from these horrid images... I am still shaken, and I stay shaken for quite sometime. My mind continues to race to figure out what the dream was, what it meant; and the emotion driven adrenaline keeps flowing for an hour, as I keep seeing the images from the dream in my head. I should talk to someone about dream interpretation, but until I do- we'll go ahead and stick with my first statement- that sleep is for pussies, and something I can do with less of if these kinds of freakouts insist on invading my brain.

Dear MsF,
Yes it is true dreams can sometimes be strange.
I think it is just a part of the subconcious mind
chattering to itself, and nothing to do with
"reality." However, lack of sufficent sleep
can be very problematic for anyone, especially
those with "mood" disorders. Certain meds used to
treat "mood" disorders, can create especially
vivid dreams. Regards, larry
