I love dreams. Weird part is, I don't usually remember mine. If I remember one it's usually because I haven't dealt with something. Instead of dreaming, I don't sleep- I stay awake trying to figure things out.
My dreams are issues that sneak up on me.
Like right now, I know I"m not sleeping because I'm stressing about whether to continue with H being a weekend wife, or tell him I'm done with it. Instead of dreaming in codes and symbols about it, I stay awake and deal with it.
I actually got into dream analysis because I "don't" dream.
It helps with kids nightmares too! As soon as my kids wake with a bad dream we go to the interpretation. They have really nothing to do with monsters or fires or whatever. When we find out the meaning, we talk about it and get some issues resolved that they have been "hiding" (abandonment, school worries....) and it helps them deal with their problems easier.
