Do You Have A Dream That Repeats?

Not a particular dream but rather a theme that repeats. I am trying to get home, it is late and I am concerned my family will be worried. I either try to call and all the phones don't work or are old fashioned dial phones with numbers missing.

Or all I have to do is one more thing before I can get in my car and go home and no matter how hard I try, I cannot get that one thing done.

There are a few dreams that I have, but I have trouble recalling them unless I've recently had them. I've dreamt of houses repeatedly, ones that are the same in the dream but I can't quite recall them after a few moments.

When I'm especially stressed out, or there are some emotionally trying things going on, I often dream of pets I used to have. I'll reach that half state of sleep, and start to turn over very cautiously with the thought that one of them is sleeping at my feet. Not exactly the 'same' dream, but the same essence is there.

I have two repeating dreams, both of which I have had for as long as I can remember.

In the first one I am on an old 4 masted sail boat. There is a terrible storm and the ships runs aground on rocks, I feel myself falling into the water, can feel the icy shock and taste the salt in my mouth. Then I slip under and all becomes black...at which point I wake up.

In the second one I am in a bizarre cubist world of strange shapes and everything is grey, no colour, and I am microscopic. Everything towers above me and feels like it is closing in on me...and it feels like a maze, with me constantly trying to find the way out.

I've had both for years. And both come at odd times, not say when I feel stressed or worried...they just happen when they want to.

Yes. However, its not a good dream. I don't know why but I can never hold onto the good ones.

Yeah my dreams are always repeats.. sad thing about them is that I can't change the channel.. damn repeats! I hope and pray for a fresh new dream.. something that's never been dreamt before.. yeah.

Guys that have responded - just to let you all know that I haven't marked down any of your responses, I've actually 'plussed them all' as they are very good. Don't know who the smarty pants is that marked a lot of you down, but just to let you know, I wouldn't be so rude!

Over the years, I've had 4-5 dreams in which I'm flying. The actual mode of flight has changed every time, but they have all been extremely vivid and visceral, and I never wanted them to end. I love these dreams.

I used to have a repeating dream that I was in the back of the class and had failed my high school exams. I actually passed the exams but the dream did not go away for a while.

It seems that you love your family too much that you don't want anything to go wrong. So, you are worried about it and think too much about it. Its Ok.

LOL!

Merry Christmas to you and your Family. :-).

I have had dreams that I realize while I'm dreaming that I've had them before, although I usually can't remember the details after I wake up. Sometimes it's not a repeat of a previous dream, but I've been there before in another dream.

I have various ongoing dreams, some from roughly 25 years ago when I was still a kid. When they're happening I know I've been there many times before, and what's odd is whatever the reason for being there, it's never solved. :).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
