................had such a vivid dream you had a hard time not believing it was real for the first few minutes after you woke up?
I'm on this anti-depressant called amitriptyline, plus I've got a nasty sinus infection and laryngitis, so I've been sleeping a lot recently. Thank boogies my kids are with my ex for the weekend. Last night, I dreamt that my fiance had brought home a hooker and I kicked his ass all over the place. I woke up crying and got online with him and told him about it. He had to take almost 20 minutes to calm me down and convince me that nothing like that will ever happen! (We live over 830 miles apart so we spend most of our time online. He'll be here for over a week in just two weeks though!!! Yay!)
Then, this afternoon, when I fell asleep on my couch, I had the TV on, so my dreams were centered around whatever the hell was on TV. It was on the travel channel and that strange guy on that No Reservations show was on. All I remember is that he was (in my dream) going to the castle Dracula and trying to buy the thing. It was so strange!!!!
Anyway, has anyone else had any odd/totally wacked dreams that they'd like to share? Thought this would be a good distraction from the whole abortion crap.
Yep! I had a dream that I cheated on my husband (kissed some random guy) and I woke up crying, convinced I'd actually done it for like ten minutes. (I've never cheated and will never cheat.)
I used to have a recurring dream when I was younger that I was babysitting my siblings (I have five) and a tornado came. After getting everyone secured in the basement, ready to ride it out, I realized one of them was missing and always had to go try to find them as the weather got worse and worse. I always woke up in a cold sweat just before the tornado got to us.
I've dreamed about past crushes, finding them and telling them "I love you" even though I don't have feelings for them anymore. A part of me remembers those old feelings and replays them, I guess.
I have had vivid dreams a lot and I have never taken any medications. I think some people do and some don't. Dh is always dead tired and he never remembers dreams. He talks in his sleep some, and also can have conversations with me where I think he is awake and he won't remember.
Im on that same med, amitriptilyn (or how ever you spell it) my dr gave it to me to help me sleep but IT DOES NOTHING! Except freak me out and make the walls melt, but thats so not the point!
a few months ago i drempt that i was married to some man i had never met, that i dont even think ive ever even seen in my life! anyhow we owned some sort of appliance store, and he told me to go to the truck and get the baby out, so i went and when i got to the truck, it was HUGE like the size of a 3 story house HUGE so i kept lookin for a way to get into the truck, to get the baby, and he (the stranger husband) kept tellin me hurry its hot in there the baby is gonna die, so i was panicing, and finally i asked him "how in the hell do i get in there" and he said "push the button for the ladder" "what button?" "the one under the truck" so i walk under the truck, and look up and there was a big ass orange button on the bottom of this giant truck that said "BUTTON" lol so i pushed it in a panic and when i did about 30 teeny tiny sweaty babies just like magically appeared in my arms, then all of the sudden my stranger husband runs to me and says "get in we have to go they are comming, they are comming to kill us" so here i am trying to figure out how to get into this dino-truck, while holding a mess load of tiny babies that are now screaming, and my brother and real husband show up and were shooting at ME! then it all replayed again! i woke up freaked out, expecting to find a crap load of tiny babies in my sons bed lol and i was mad at my husband for trying to shoot me, he had to calm me down and convince me that it was just a dream!
i still cant figure out who the man in my dream was, and what really throws me is he was UGLY like ugly ugly idk how to explain it, not just like when you pass someone on the street and think eh hes not so good looking but like overly exaggereated UGLY! and i cant for the life of me figure out why the button said "BUTTON" on it the way it did... it was wierd!







lol! I used to ask my mother to let me do things when she was talking in her sleep! She'd never remember but I'd have a friend with me so she could attest that she did, in fact say it! Was always funny.
However, it was easy to get away with things like that since my mother was a drunk when I was younger. Kind of sad, but there you go. Can only learn from it and move on.

I've had dreams in which I thought my husband came home (he goes to work really early in the mornings) and I literally wasn't sure when I woke up if I dreamed it or if it really happened!
last year when my son was Deployed to Afghanistan.I used to dream that the Army was knocking on my door to tell me he was dead. I would wake up run downstairs and open the door.Then sit on the floor and cry. It was AWFUL. so real feeling.
Surround yourself with people that add to your life not subtract from it.
Awwwwwwwwwww!!! I'm sorry. That must have been hard.

I have had this happen to me before. In my house on my front door is this really pretty stained glass window but there are squares of clear glass in it so you can see through them if you stand close to them. Well one morning my husband had to gone to work really early (he used to have to leave at like 3 am) so I would sometimes fall back asleep on the couch (before I had my daughter LOL) and this one morning I started dreaming that there were some people standing out on my porch and trying to look in the window at me. I could hear them talking and discussing something. I don't know why they wouldn't have just knocked on the door insteading of standing there and trying to see me through the window. It creeped me out and I had the same dream on more than one occasion. I hadn't even taken anything. After I woke up I could not figure out if I had been dreaming or not for a while. To this day it still sort of gives me chills when I think about it and it has been several years since those dreams happened.
all the time
