Recurring Dreams

At least once a month I have dreams where I'm falling. Except, right as I hit the ground I wake up. It's hard as hell to go back to sleep after one of those...

I have those quite frequently, usually once a month, I feel like my whole body is squished and I can't breathe.

I also have dreams that I'm on a college campus, and I know I'm supposed to know where I am or where I'm going, but i'm lost, and I can't find anyone to ask for directions, and it's dark and raining and I can't yell for help, like it just comes out as a whisper. Yeah, try reading into that one, lol

School dreams where you're lost/unprepared are among the most common dreams (recurring or otherwise) that people have. It's because school is a universal experience.

When I was 8 or 9 I used to dream about being trapped in a car and going backwards down a hill by my house - it was awful - I've had it a couple times since I've been older. I think it has to do with not feeling like you have any control over your life.

I have the yelling thing in my dreams too! Anytime there's someone after me or I'm hurt in a dream I try to yell and can't. Since i started having that dream I've been paranoid that if something bad happened I wouldn't be able to scream. haha

I have a running away from something bad dream, then I fall off a cliff and fly, only to jump into the water and swim... It is a very weird dream when it happens and I can stop and restart it whenever I want for a different outcome...

There is no spoon

Many people have told me that they think my Haunted Mansion dream is frustration with not being able to reach a goal. Could be. One irritating feature of the dream is that sometimes I'm at a place that looks nothing like Disney, only everybody keeps assuring me that this is Disney. And then I start on that stupid quest to find the ride.

this is a really cool dream story,
I hadnt really dreampt (SP?) ever except a few times when i was little. then we had a sister pass away a few moths ago in a car/ pedestrian accident and that night i started dreaming. it started out like once a week and then it became more frequent. i hated dreaming and could never sleep through a dream but then one night i did and the very next night i had a dream about her. it was like she was teaching me to sleep through a dream so she could come and talk to me in my fream and tell me that even though i was the risk management chair for the formal that we were at the night it happened, it wasn't my fault. it made me have such peace of heart.
I havent dreampt (SP?) since

Do you see colors or just B/W? Have your been to Disneyland, DisneyWorld or both? Which one is it, then? Are the rides the old ones or the new ones?

When you think you have found the "Haunted Mansion" is it truly the way it looks like at the Disney theme parks you know? Does it seem to get further away from you the more you try to get to it?

How do you know that the place your are visiting is NOT Disney? It just happens that the "Haunted Mansion" exhibit is there at the NOT Disney place, but at the 6-Flags park--or whatever...

Unlock your dream gives you the key for yourself, my young padawan...
