(This is my first post in this section, hello to everyone ^^)My dreams are always so vivid and sensual. I really enjoy taking down notes about my dreams and such. But anyway, this is a dream I had a few nights ago, I wanted to share it because it was just so strange: I was in school [but it didn't look like my real school at all, but I was at "school], in math class specifically. [I really hate math class.] I was sitting next to one of my good friends, I'll call him "Bob". (Bob is someone whom I adored for a while, but my feelings for him grew platonic and we are really, really close today.) And Bob isn't the best kid in class, he's always talking when he shouldn't and just causing amusing trouble. He did something amusing and I was laughing so hard, and as I was laughing an announcement was said on the intercom. "May I have everyone's attention please. Now, please, before I say what I have to say I just have to ask everyone, both staff and students to PLEASE NOT PANIC. DO NOT PANIC. But, as quickly as you could, staff please lead the students out of this school immediately. Evacuate immediately. Thank you." And of course, everyone started to panic anyway. We had no idea what was going on. Our teacher was lead us out of the classroom, down the stairs and to the doors that led us out of the building. We appeared to be the first class to reach the entrance/exit of the building. The mood changed. Everyone became silent. There were red puddles everywhere. I was about to go through the doors... until I saw this dead body, covered in blood and completely mutilated with gun bullets. I just about fainted, but Bob had caught me in his arms before I fell in to one of the many puddles of blood. Then I just started to cry, profusely, in his arms. Hyperventalating even. And that's all I can remember. (And sorry if there are any typos, I'm a horrible speller.)

Welcome to LindaLand, Alterna I really like your screen-name.  Okay, I have one question to begin with ... is there something happening in your waking life (or something you anticipate to happen) that makes you feel great anxiety or even panic?  IP: Logged |

Ra, Thank you very much for your welcome! [My screenname is a title of this new song by one of my favorite artists (Ayumi Hamasaki - she's a japanese singer).] The only thing I can think of that would be causing me anxiety would be getting in to college. I'm about to become a Senior this fall and college application deadlines are months away and I have no idea what to do..... would that be connected to my dream somehow? I cannot think of anything else at the moment (regarding to anxiety that is, life is pretty content for the time being.) IP: Logged |

Well, your dream is about leaving school in a hurry, with a sense of panic, not knowing what was going on or what was going to happen ... and death does symbolize change/transition, as does standing in the entrance/exit ... so it looks like that could be it. Seems like a pretty gruesome and dramatic way to symbolize things ... maybe it is bothering you more than you realize. What do you think?  IP: Logged |

Wow, just.. when I read all of this and I look back at my dream, I just feel like slapping myself on the forehead and saying: "Duh!"I would have never figured this out on my own, thank you so much. It sounds just about right, too. And Bob always tells me not to worry. [he's not worried about his future at all, he says that he'll just go to a community college become a firefighter, haha.] Thank you again  IP: Logged |
