i've been having dreams lately.
not sweet dreams. or the more it couldnt be wet dreams. LOLS.
ok. serious.
im talking about strange dreams.
yea. strange ones.
in the dream, i'm like very awake.
and i noe i'm dreaming(when i'm sleeping).
although i know im dreaming,
but i can still feel the "fear" in the dream.
iyah. hard to explain la. lols.
yah. anyway, although i feel awake,
but when i wake up, i can't recall the whole dream.
but i can recall the part that i wouldnt like to see the most! dots.

many times. i had recurring dreams.
although they are the same dreams and i know im dreaming,
i still can't help feeling lost, feeling panicky, etc.
then i would just wake up suddenly in the middle of the night. sometimes, early morning.
when i realise it's the same dream, i go back to sleep again. lols.

spoke to susan regarding this matter.
and she told me that a dream may reflect upon a problem you are having.
then she further explained that if you're dreaming that you are hiding and running at the same time, then maybe in real life(means when you're conscious), you're running away from a problem.

below is something that i find it interesting and would like to share with all of you..

*if you dream that you're being chased...
The ever-popular chase dream can be extremely frightening. What it usually symbolizes is that you're running away from your problems. What that problem is depends on who is chasing you. It may be a problem at work, or it may be something about yourself that you know is destructive. For example, you may be drinking too much, and your dream may be telling you that your drinking is becoming a real problem.

*if you dream of Running, but going nowhere...
This theme can also be part of the chasing dream. You're trying to run, but either your legs won't move or you simply aren't going anywhere -- as if you were on a treadmill. According to some, this dream means you have too much on your plate. You're trying to do too many things at once and can't catch up or ever get ahead.

*if you dream that Your teeth fall out...
Many people have dreams that they lose all of their teeth. In this dream, they may feel something strange in their mouth and then spit teeth into their hand, eventually losing all of their teeth. According to some, our teeth are related to our sense of power and our ability to communicate. Losing our teeth not only makes us embarrassed by our appearance, which hinders our communications, but it also lessens our power because we may not speak our minds. It's also associated with feelings about our appearance.

lols. i dreamt several times that i lose my teeth.. LOLS. does that means i having problems of communicating with people around me? lols. to some bah.. hahahs.

* if you experience Recurring Dreams and Nightmares...
Many people have the same or a similar dream many times, over either a short period of time or their lifetime. Recurring dreams usually mean there is something in your life you've not acknowledged that is causing stress of some sort. The dream repeats because you have not corrected the problem. Another theory is that people who experience recurring dreams have some sort of trauma in their past they are trying to deal with. In this case, the dreams tend to lessen with time.
Nightmares are dreams that are so distressing they usually wake us up, at least partially. Nightmares can occur at any age but are seen in children with the most frequency. Nightmares usually cause strong feelings of fear, sadness or anxiety. Their causes are varied. Some medications cause nightmares (or cause them if you discontinue the medication abruptly). Traumatic events also cause nightmares.
Treatment for recurring nightmares usually starts with interpreting what is going on in the dream and comparing that with what is happening in the person's life. Then, the person undergoes counseling to address the problems that are presumably causing the nightmare. Some sleep centers offer nightmare therapy and counseling. Another method of treating nightmares is through lucid dreaming. Through lucid dreaming, the dreamer can confront his or her attacker and, in some cases, end the nightmares.
