Weird dream I think it's triggering?

01 December 2012

Posted by kjw9311

All I remember of my dream- I was talking to a guy (who didn't look the least bit like my ***ist) and he was close to me. He kept telling me I had to give him something, and when I said turned to walk away, he grabbed my hand. Then he got even closer, whispered a threat, and pulled a gun on me. The gun was silver, i'm not sure what brand. Anyways, I fought him, and then I remember looking in his eyes (brown, like my ***ist), and then the gun went off, I felt pain in my stomach, by my left hip. Then the dream went black. I woke up, tried rolling over, and realized my hip hurt so bad I couldn't move. I was hot too, not sweating, but still. It's all very confusing to me, and scary. I've never had a nightmare like this before. I don't know what to think about it.

Hey I ha a dream the other night too. Woke up, almost like I was fighting off the abuser who I started kicking in my dream. I do not know why these occur; could be a way of showing that it is on your mind. I do not vent too much so dreams are in a way a "wake up call," letting myself know that it is bothering me.

Hope this helps and you do not get these dreams again.
