Recurring dreams
 

Have you had any strange Recurring dreams before? Do you belive they meant anything?
I've been having this recurring dream latly. I keep having a dream where I have a daughter I've been having it for a couple of moths. In most of my dreams she is still a baby around 1-2 year old I think i had one one of her being a teen. I never dream about the her birth or her mother she is always just my child. The dreams feel really real and when I wake up its actually sad because I miss her :(.


......Don't laugh :suspect:

That sounds a powerful experience. I can imagine it being quite disconcerting when you wake from it.

I used to have one where me and my family where on holiday in an old cottage and yobbos kept chucking beer bottles at the windows and stuff

If you believe in Dreams this has something to do with the inner you, the child in you. Im assuming you dont have a daughter so maybe you miss certain aspects of been a child that you can no longer do or feel like you cant.
Maybe you have taken on more responsibility or that you have had to act more mature & you miss certain things of when you were younger & had no worries.

It is really weird because I bond so well with her :/

I do have a recurring dream. One of those that happens as you are waking. Not every night, but often.

It's quite a simple dream. I wake, I do not recognise my surroundings, I am somehow enclosed. The setting isn't always exactly the same, and it's difficult to describe. But it is usually an empty space, with smooth curved walls, or it is a tentlike place. Flowing cloth with no gaps, no way out. All of this is known but I cannot actually see more than slight impressions. A sense of mounting claustrophobia and panic. There is something. A presence of some kind. Or the fear of a future presence, imminent, dark and threatening. Not sure...it shifts from dream to dream.

I know if I can get the light, I'm ok. At some level I must know I'm waking and if I can get the light switch near my bed I'll be awake and will be able to see...see what, of course is not known.

Usually, this is only a momentary thing. Sometimes it goes on a little too long for comfort and I am at near panic by the time I get the light switch and am reconnected with my actual location.

Verrrry occasionally, it goes on long enough to become dread. This happened a few weeks ago. I was trying to find the switch, it wasn't there. My hand didn't come up against the reasurringly cold and hard surface of my bedroom wall or the rough-hewn and solid wood of my bedside table. There was just air. Just..space. It was real. An impression (never more than that) of smooth curving walls. A cold sense of shock as the dream didn't end. A much deeper panic. And, somehow a sense of having returned to somewhere. And again the fear of a nearby or future presence.

And then I did get to the light. Bit vague about the details and chronology, or how that chronology felt to me...but it seemed to take a longer time than usual to get my bearings again. I stumbled off to the loo, then got back in bed and fell back to sleep for an hour or so.

When I was getting up later that morning, though i hadn't had the dream again, and had slept well in the interim, I still felt unsettled, a bit jumpy. At which point I noticed that instead of it all just going on in my head until the moment I reach for the switch, this time I had actually got out of bed because the radio ipod dock on the other side of the (admittedly quite small) room had been knocked to the floor, its wires trailing behind it.

My only recurring dream is all my teeth falling out, and I hate it!

Maybe this, I am starting college soon :shrug:

I've had this dream before, once I pushed them all out with my tongue and another time someone wanted to steal my teeth.

Oh, I used to get the loose teeth dreams. hated them.

Apparently it's an insecurity thing... Mainly about your appearance?

I have a recurring dream and its awful. I will be out shopping or outside somewhere and someone tells me there is a lion on the loose, I can see the lion but the whole dream is spent hiding from the lion, it never does see me to get me. It doesn't sound much but its a terrible nightmare and I am petrified. I have that dream a lot.

Lions are my all time favourite animals in the world.

Ive had that dream a few times.. Once my mum and I had exactly the same lion dream :shocked:
