Like Deja Vu All Over Again
I know pretty much everybody has reoccurring dreams but is anybody else as curious about reoccurring dreams as I am? I know a lot of it is the subconscious coming out or some fears are are manifesting themselves in dreams, but why do they have to happen so randomly? What is it that sets them off? What can be done to prevent them (or make them keep happening if they are good) or lessen them? For me there are several I have had either currently or when I was younger:
- When I was a teen and in my early to mid twenties I used to have a reoccurring dream that I’m trying to give myself a blow job and when I finally make it I got so excited that I ran out of the room to tell everybody “hey, look what I can do!” you know, as if it was some sort of amazing trick, which in a way, I guess it was. And while I know you might think I’m kidding, I’m serious as fuck that this is a dream that I used to have all the time. I haven’t had it though since I came out to people, I think it had something to do with my homosexuality and being in the closet.
- I used to have this reoccurring dream that I was pregnant and I go to the doctor and ask him “how the fuck did this happen and more importantly, how do I get this baby out of me?” And then he tells me but I can’t hear what he says but I react by saying something “oh shit, no fucking way are you taking it that way!”
- Nowadays a dream I have quite often is pretty timely given the tornadoes that hit Oklahoma today (and the storm that is brewing here as I write this) is that a tornado is about to hit where I’m at. It is so vivid and realistic that I can see the funnel cloud and everything. The dream stops just before it hits the building I’m in. But, I have these dreams probably because tornadoes are one of my biggest fears.
- Although I have flown more often the past few year, I still have a fear of flying. This probably explains the dreams I have every now and then in which I witness a plan crash. I think I just need to fly more and get more used to it so that I can overcome the fear.
So what reoccurring dreams do you have?
