Weird Dreams in The Kid Used To Dream

Last night I experienced more emotions in one dream than I can keep track of. I don’t think the context of what the dream was about is necessary to remember - but the emotional rollercoaster I experienced is leaving me feeling weird.

I experienced a rush of anxiety trying to accomplish something. That turned into a sense of confidence after a brief episode of self - doubt. Then, that quickly turned into shame, then anger and then depression.

My allergies are acting up so I assume I probably compromised my breathing and nearly smothered in my dream and that’s why the weird rush of emotions hit. Of course, during the day I have been beating myself up over some recent weight gain. I was doing so well then all of a sudden - plump! I spend all day awake trying to hide my shame that I guess my brain is taking out the garbage when I am asleep and can’t fight back. I’ve often said that I’d be a dream come true for a psychotherapist or psychiatrist. Nah …I’m still dreaming.
