What would Freud say

[Pekka]

I had the worst nightmare. Usually my nightmares are about wars I have never even been to, and everytime I lose my leg and my buddies leave me there. They say to me 'I'll carry you, don't worry!' and I go like 'No, I'm too heavy! You go! Leave me this is an order!' and they they like.. leave me. And I get so angry they actually left me and I just wanted to sound brave. Then the baddies come and they set up BBQ and I'm the main course. That's what I usually dream, OK but now I have gone to worse direction..

Last night I actually dreamed of computer problems. I needed more memory to my computer, so I called up this shop I use all the time (it's really good one too). Everytime I call, I can't remember what kind of memory I need! And other times I just become mute when I have to place the order. FINALLY when I get that done, It's late and I have to drive there fast, so I always get stuck in the freeway and I scream like a girl. Finally when I get off freeway, I just simply can't find the shop and I know where it is! The next day, same thing, I ask for driving instructions.. nothing works, I just can't get my memory boosted up, and it's killing me. The worrying thing is that this actually is a nightmare and I get anxiety and really sweatty too, I wake up with lost of breath etc.

Serioulsy, what would Freud say? Except get out more?

I had a dream that I was in Europe and my grandmother (who has been deceased since 1995) tried to run me over with her car, missed me and hit her retirement home. My cats lived at the retirement home, so I had to stop them from getting outside (they are indoor cats!).

I don't see any sense in it, at all.

[Pekka]

Asher, that's an interesting one.. When I was a kid, I used to have this nightmare where one of my aunts tried to kill me. It was horrible.
Sidenote: my grandma passed in 1995 too.

I had a dream that I was in a hotel full of vampires. Lots of stress in that dream.

You want to have sex with your mother.

[DaShi]

Pekka, your first dream means that you are spending too much effort trying to please other people and rea unsatisfied with the results. Don't be a doormat.

The second dream means that you need more memory. Or you're in love with your mother. Either one.

[Pekka]

DaShi, I'm glad that you found something 'positive' from the first one

Yes, I do need more memory. But why was it a nighmare?

[DaShi]

Have you ever had a lag just playing CivII? Now that's a nightmare.

It looks like you have built up a lot of anxiety and frustration inside. You may even have some sort of fear. It's like that time you help those people out and they didn't even thank you. Things like that build up inside you, and you don't know how to deal with these emotions. Not having a job, of course, doesn't help any.

You need to let yourself go a bit, don't keep dwelling on failures. Become a volunteer for a humanitarian or green organisationm of your choice. It should help you relief some of your mental pressures.

I had a dream similar to that. Not a hotal though, it was a forest. The sun was setting, and the vampires thought they had me. I destroy them all though, thanks to this artifact sword I have - it was created just to destroy vampires. MUHAHAHA!

You want to have sex with your mother.

It's a stereotype of Freud. I wouldn't expect anything else, but (unless there is someone who finds a closer connection) this gives more information about Freud than about you. I could rather imagine that dreams like "being killed by a female relative" are related to sex.

As a kid, I used to have repeated dreams of being persecuted by some sort of witch. When she was about catching me, I had some sort of blackout (or better redout). I guess this is the result of a too early sex education (I was 4 at that time). When I was adolescent, the dream repeated once more and this time I was able to escape. After that, I had a nightmare only once when I was working in a retirement home. Normally, if a dream turns out to become uncomfortable I'm able to convince myself that I'm dreaming and get curious about the outcome.
The test failed only once when I wanted something to be reality.

My SO does that for a living, so she rubs off on me a bit

It'd be good if you become a volunteer. You're a good man and you like to help, so why help jackarses who don't even appreciate your efforts?

yeah well I was very scared... I managed to just creep out of that damned hotel

not too hard cause the hotel was monodimensional. oh yeah, I didnt tell you that. I could just see the facade, and in the place of open rooms, there was soil and the vampires were sleeping at that time. still pretty scary.
