Anxiety

Darkness
Waking up

Dream

I don’t remember much but all I know is I was able to wake myself up from it. I remember i was in a uncomfortable situation where I was aware that I didn’t like what was happening, I was either scared for what was gonna happen or I just didn’t wanna be where i was in that moment. When I feel like that in a dream, I’ll close my eyes in the dream & then forcefully Open them, it’ll take me a few tries when closing & opening but while doing that all in a spam of like 3 seconds, I’m connecting to my physical body to open my eyes, & then eventually my eyes will open. I won’t remember the dream tho right away, i’ll remember it later in the day .

dream-of-white-suited-figure
Darkness

Dream

Let me just say that I thought I was awake the whole time I was dreaming about this. I heard banging or knocking I'm not sure then I got up with my baby because she kept coughing ( she was coughing in real life too) I walked out of my room and saw a person in an all white suite and a white horse head walking down my stairs I ran into my moms room and I couldn't see her face because her room was dark and I told her what I saw and she said I really need to get this place cleansed because something isn't right with these dreams I've been having and I agreed so I started looking outside her window to see where the figure went but all I saw were neighbors walking around with their faces blurred I was straining to see clearly but I couldn't so I went back to my room with my coughing baby then I woke up. I was confused because I didn't realise I was sleeping.

Darkness
Hotel

Water

Dream

This week I have been having vivid dreams. Still exploring in every one of them. I visited my old childhood apartment with my mom, significant other and our cats; But I noticed that there were other random people around us. We were allowed to look inside the apartment as it was empty. In a separate dream, I was with random people again and we were in boats. I was with a guy in one boat and his mom and friends were in another. As they sped by the man I was with got worried and we rushed to them. Their boat capsized and his mother flipped out of the boat. We jumped off our boat and crawled our way to the top of the side of the river. As we made it up, a policeman said there’s a woman who was impaled by metal. It was his mother. In a separate dream, I was in a hotel. It had old oak wood accents and an old telephone. I used the phone to call services because our sheets were dirty with makeup stains and dirt. I looked out the window and saw a breezeway with a friend of mine walking around trying to find us. Then in another dream, I always end up at my old job or school. It’s always dark outside and I feel like I’m just going through the motions.

Darkness
Motorcycle
Police

Dream

I needed to go to my job, so I got into my dad's car. The atmosphere was dark, because I get up at 5am for my job. Anyways, I drive the car, knowing fully well that I'm not supposed to drive it because I'm 17, and while I'm driving I do some things that I'm not supposed to do while driving, like not using my blinkers accidentally. When I get to my job, I realize it's Friday so I don't have work that day. I think to myself "there's no way there's gonna be policemen, my house isn't even that far away" so I drive and I see blue and red lights flickering Infront of me, the police car was at the side of the road. For some reason my vehicle changes to a motorcycle and I illegally go on the sidewalk, but the policeman doesn't notice. Then the vehicle changes back to the car, and I think I'm gonna be fine, but there's another police car with blue and red lights. Dream ends there

Abandoned home

Searching
Darkness
Family
Childhood home

Dream

My mom was giving me a punishment for something and that punishment was going through trash to find the thing I accidentally binned. So I keep going through trash until I find a package that I accidentally binned (not what I was looking for). It was a package from temu, do i go upstairs with it and open it. There i saw a lot of red boxes with Chinese letters on them. They weren't all read but they had images on them. There was one box that said "outdoor lamp" and I thought to myself that I must've orded an outdoor lamp accidentally. But then I keep looking and I see a box that looks like it had a screen protector for my old phone on it but when I open it, it had the exact same model of my old phone in it! I was surprised! I thought to myself that I must've spent way too much on this. I start up the phone and I see that I'm in a Minecraft world made by temu (the company that shipped me the phone) to test out how good the phone is, it wasemt bad I must say, but I wanted to leave Minecraft and see the rest of the phone. When I finally did leave Minecraft, my objectives changed. I was gonna finish my punishment, and then open the rest of the packages. So I go to the bin area where it was dark and all the trash bags were located and I keep looking through them. I find that in one of them, there's stuff I can sell so I call out to my mom and she's very happy about this. She tells me to keep looking through the for that item I accidentally threw away so I do, now that I've found it I don't care, I keep looking for valuables. It's as if each bag I go through has more and more electronics or manuals that I can sell. Suddenly I get teleported to my bedroom I had as a child and I'm opening the trash bags there. There's less and less trash but more and more things I can sell. The more loot I find the more my mom helps me, she would bring the trash bags in and made sure we weren't caught rummaging through our neighbours trash. I kept thinking to myself "wow, if I was my neighbours I would sell this stuff, they must be rich to not sell this". When I get to the last bag, there no trash in it, just things I can sell. The atmosphere looks very dark yellow because of the lightbulb thats emitting that colour. My mom looked happy and I told myself were gonna be rich. While I was searching through thoughs bags I felt a bit stressed not to get caught.

Church
Darkness
Driving

Dream

I was sad and worried about something and I was driving and praying for solution. Then I thought about going to a church. I was in a neighborhood that I didn’t know, and I looked up the available churches close to me. I continued the GPS direction to find the church but at across section I was kind of lost and I got off my car to ask somebody for direction and in a few moments I realize it was a bad neighborhood and there were a lot of bad people with woods and knives trying to get in my car and steal my car so I ran toward my car and was able to get in my car and get out of that area safely and little further down the road I found the church. The church was beautiful and very fancy and I was wondering how could such a church be in such a neighborhood? So I went inside and I was amazed with the black and green marbles and golden cross designs. I realize there was, a black foggy misty and scary appearance is moving around some people in the church and for some reason I realize there were bad energies in that church specially hovering around a little girl which I tried to warn her. I got out of the church. Outside of the church the little girl was there, but now she had no limbs, and the dark forces were trying to trick her to get her in. I warned her and told her not to go back in that church and if she wants healing and salvation, just ask Jesus for help & pray. She was listening to me very carefully, but confused, and it seemed she couldn’t see the dark forces and they were taking her apart to get her back in. She wasn’t sure whether she should listen to me or go back in the church. The dark forces were trying to get to me as well, so I got out of the church and escaped that bad energy area , thanking Jesus for saving me and guiding me.

Dream

I was home getting to head to work, it looked like it could’ve winter outside as I was dressed warm and so was the client I’m assigned to. She came over to my address, which in my mind I was confused to how she knew my exact address and wondered if the agency gave her my address as in the past they’ve provided my old phone number to a patient but I wasn’t sure if they’d do the same thing with addresses. So, I left my home with the patient and my area looked different, the patient had this big bag and asked me to carry it in my bag she put it in my bag but surprisingly it wasn’t that heavy and she was assuring that it wasn’t and that it’s better I hold it in my bag instead. I was in this a apartment, I walked into the bedroom and it felt like it Jacob’s (the guy I was seeing recently) room as it seemed familiar. There was an apartment unit next to the room I was in and I thought it’d be a nice idea if I could be roommates with them one day, so I took out a piece of paper and while writing I’ve encountered something. It’s like I was watching something unfold without actually being, and it was an unserious situation going on as if they were playing a game plus a newly celebrity was involved and the game seemed a bit lustful. I was then at the park playing on the playground with the other girls, we were celebrating someone’s birthday. I decided to a store and used Google Maps to walk me there, I found myself in this building that I was supposed to walk through but I winded up getting lost inside the building but before I got lost I seen this little girl and her father together. But when I became lost, I seen the same girl close by calling out for him she looked scared and confused but when I realized she was by herself that’s when I wanted make sure she was okay. She said she seen her dad and pointed in the corner where I only seen a glimpse of him, and I found it eerie that he just stood there and looked like a completely black figure so I told the girl that it’s not him and tried to evade. We were running every door that could be closed shut but it wasn’t closing as the dad still managed to catch it before closing, until we got into another secluded room and I grew the courage to close it tightly with her help. He began banging on the door, and he started talking to the girl in a calm way but obviously angry but he started saying sexual stuff—stuff I wish he could’ve been saying to me in that moment as it was turning me on but unfortunately that was for his daughter who looked no older than 6.

Dream

I was In a house that had huge windows that I could see outside. In the room where the windows were there were many empty seats all lined up. There were hallways and I went to a room that I felt was a bathroom and I told the people in there to get out. I didn’t recognize all of them but I think one was my dad. There was this huge feeling that somthing was about to happen and we needed to be ready. I went back to the room with the seats and out the window the sky was so dark. I could see lights in the distance that made me nervous but I didn’t know what they were. There were a few people outside with hoods. And there were a lot of cars. I stared at the cars and two of them drove away one was a small gray four door and one was a blue truck. There was a fence out there that separated the lot and the building from a field of tall green plants. I went into a diffrent room like a storage room and I felt so scared and I was praying and I kept remembering Allah in the dream. Then I woke up. I still am not sure what was going to happen

上演一部舞台劇,一部有點年代的家庭倫理劇,我是飾演一位在婚姻出軌被老婆發現,然後老婆殺掉兒子,向我報仇的角色。 其實我並沒有背好舞台劇的故事脈落,但是突然間就要來一個預演。我在後台等待的時候,只是打開自己的筆記,看着自己的對白,而我的筆記裏並沒有其他人的對白,所以其實我並不會知道何時到達我的出場和如何跟對方在演繹上對接。 我在台面聽到他們吵吵鬧鬧,劇情危急,所女人我亦是憑直覺走到預備的空間等待自己的進場。台面非常空曠,充滿煙霧,暗綠暗藍色的燈,還有聲音在麥克風裏變得非常之散開。 在預演之前,老師看得出來我有點悶悶不樂,他叫我趴在地下,幫我推開膊頭和心胸的緊繃,我脫了上衣趴在地下,只餘下一件束胸上衣,他說,有些事情只能透過時間去推動,再多的苦惱也無補於事,只是庸人自擾。
