high anxiety

I blogged before about how I don't fear much in this world anymore. And I DON'T. I'm not afraid of dying and I ain't afraid of the latest Booger-Man that "science" invents to scare me to death. I ain't afraid of ANYBODY.

But I have dreams... oh, boy do I have dreams.

My nightmares all involves snakes, heights and being unable to find something really important when I go to look for it. I dreamed last night that I was stuck on a steep roof, about six stories off the ground, with only a ladder to get me down. I couldn't approach the ladder because I became really dizzy every time I tried to crawl to the edge of the roof. I wondered how I was going to get myself onto that ladder without falling.

I woke up in a cold sweat.

I do that crap all the time. Welcome to my world.

You really need to invest a few more dollars in some better drugs; the cheap shit gives ya nightmares every time!

Man, you have a LOT of fears, you just dream them instead of admitting they exist.

I vote everyone has them. But only a few of us remember them on a regular basis. I've read that you remember them most if you wake during the deepest REM cycle.

I've always had very vivid dreams and remember about half of the longer than a half a day. Some are really good, a few are nightmares. Most are just plain strange, filed under "WTF."

I have horrible nightmares.....usually involving bathrooms. They are so recurrent that sometimes in the dream, I actually say...."this *really* seems like one of my bathroom dreams!" They are so real....I hate it!

If only there was a way to turn of your mind at night.

I hate dreams like that. I am seriously afraid of heights, so when I dream about it, it's even worse.

The heights thing is funny. When awake, no fear at all. Roofs, cliffs, climbing, doesn't matter. When I'm dreaming the terror is overpowering. This is one way I usually figure out I'm IN a dream.
