Today I dreamt everyone saw my naked body and then stopped talking to me. I suppose out of disgust. Their loss, I'm a hottie. Weird dream nonetheless. deng stare

I have a pseudo reoccuring dream where my home is non-linear, doesn't make sense and usually on every wall there's a door, and strangers keep coming in. I always try so hard to stay in, but they tell me to leave or try to force me to. Obviously it's linked to my long standing fear of losing housing, but the architecture is always so absurd, as are the events. Last time I had this dream, I had a support dog going around with me, and I'm scared of dogs usually, but as long as the dog has a non dog face it's okay, and this was a pug, which is also sad because pugs have inherent health issues.

Please spoiler if you have scary dreams. I'm a softie. >/////<

Sorry for a late response, it got me a bit to get to reading it. I am now through. I am very sorry for the reality you live in. I only got a taste when I was going through a period where I kept waking up in the middle of the night and then dreamt irl for a moment. I had huge spiders crawl into my room being the worst of it. I would dream of my Internet router at the ceiling. I was terrified it would escalate. My heart aches to know far worse is the norm for someone else. If you ever want to vent privately, my DMs are open. ๐Ÿซ‚

I appreciate it, although I don't publicly "complain" much about it because my life is incredibly privileged and cushy all things considered. I'm kinda conflicted if I should talk more about it since I know, or suspect, there are tons of people currently dealing with sleep issues which ruin their lives but they don't speak out or seek help because it's embarrassing or they just get told "drink some coffee!" Btw, on a side note to everyone, if someone ever confides what is likely an ongoing medical issue they're dealing with, like sleep problems, and it's not like "oh I stayed up last night to watch the new whatever" but like "man, I haven't slept in a week..." don't give dismissive "help" like "have you tried drinking coffee?" Or "just sleep more!" People legitimately used to tell me that all the time... even when I was undergoing exams with doctors, coworkers and stuff were like "you should sleep more." Bro, if I slept any more (back then) I'd be legally dead.

Well, anyway, the only reason I wrote about it here was because of the dream/nightmare stuff. People usually have a mixture of horror and interest when I tell them about my dreams, so, figured I'd share. Also snuck in a little narcolepsy PSA there. Shout out to all the sleep apnea people too. I don't have it, but it's much more common disruptor of sleep. It's also much easier to treat than narcolepsy (not a doctor, but this is my understanding). So if you snore or were told you snore a lot and you're always tired in the day no matter how much sleep... go to a doctor. Bad sleep obviously degrades life quality in every way and also leads to heart conditions and all types of bad shit. (PSA over)
