Yikes!!! I so hate v***** dreams!! They are so realisitc, not to mention disturbingand I always wake up freaked out and nauseaus! Ugh! Why oh why can't this phobia at least let us rest in our sleep??[img]smileys/smilies_06.gif[/img]


I have noticed a pattern with my v**** dreams.


1)They always happen to Someone I know (a good friend or a family member, or even someone I haven't seen for years, but they just randomly appear in my dreams v*******!)


2) It is in a place I am very familiar with and comfortable in (Usually in my house, and I always have trouble going to the place where the person v* in my dream. I have to keep telling myself it didn't happen, and that it was only a dream.)


3) It isn't me that is v****** in my dream. It's usually someone else that is close to me, like I said before. (When I was younger, since I rarely had dreams of myself being sick, I used to think that if I dreamt Iwas sick,then I really would be sick when I woke up! It had happened once, I had dreamt myself being sick, and I was ill in the morning. And of course that one experience sets off fear for every other similar experience, So anytime I dream about myself being sick, you can imagine my terror!)


4) I can't escape from the person who is v****** or from the v*****. (No matter how fast I run, the person is either chasing me, or I am trapped.)


Anyone else have similar patterns in their v**** dreams? And they will come up at the weirdest times! I won't be even thinking about emet or v*****, and it makes an appearance in my dream![img]smileys/smilies_12.gif[/img]


The important thing to remember is that it was just a dream. As hard as it is to tell yourself thatafter an experience like that...I know...
