Run Run Away

Question:

Woah, I wonder what the significance of those numbers is (23 and 19, and 1). It always facinates me when I have dreams that involve specific numbers like that. They usually figure in some sort of important way not long after the dream. Andy

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – I had this weird dream when I was waking up this morning.  I don’t remember the first part of it, but I remember I was operating a radio controlled toy boat.  Somehow, I modified the controls so that the boat became bigger and went super fast, but that made it a little difficult to control the steering mechanism.  (I also noticed that the sound of the engine was actually coming from the radio controls instead of the boat, and there was kind of a black disk spinning at the top of them.)  I think I was doing it to show of and try to impress someone. Then, instead of being on the water, the boat was on a huge indoor running track.  I kept trying to steer it, and even though it was difficult it seemed to be doing okay.  I got kind of distracted by something else (I don’t remember what), and the next thing I knew there was some kind of accident (which I was worried about and anticipating) when the boat went into someone’s office where there was a meeting, instead of turning.  I ran up there quick to see if anyone was hurt, and I was very sad to find out that they were.  They wouldn’t let me go in to see, but the person in front of the door said that 23 people were saved, 19 were injured, and one was still drowning. For some reason that last part has been making me laugh all morning cuz there was no water.

That sounds like a nightmare about *losing control*. I used to have them years ago when my anxiety level was very high (when my PD was just starting).

Hmm.  Yes, I suppose that’s reasonable that i’m subconsciously worried about losing control, especially since the Paxil is changing the chemical balance in my brain.  I’ve been a lot more energetic (in fact almost too energetic) the past day or so, but of course eating sugar and junk food probably contributed to that.  Actually, I didn’t start having these vivid dreams until my doctor reminded me that they’re more likely to happen when taking an antidepressant.  LOL.  I’ve also noticed that I’m more likely to remember my dreams when I sleep in, so that could be part of it too. I recurrently dreamed I was driving a car or school bus and I’d lose contol of the steering and the vehicle would go off the road. No one was ever injured in my nightmares.

I interpret the other people being injured in my dream as being related to an issue I have with my ego.  I know that I have a lot of potential, in fact I know that I have so much potential that I’m afraid that it might be more than I can control.  As a result, much of my potential is squandered and never realized, because I’m afraid of going to extremes and things taking on a life of their own, and other people getting hurt because of it. I think it also might have to do with my anxiety about driving too.  I haven’t driven since before my brain surgery, and the doctors told me I couldn’t drive for many months afterwards because they weren’t sure whether I was having partial seizures. It’s been over a year since my surgery, and I still haven’t gotten behind the wheel of a car again yet.  I have serious concerns that I might lose my concentration and "blank out" while driving and get into an accident.

Also, when I developed PD, I lost alot of control over my life. It determined what I was able to do and not my own ambitions or wishes. It still determines how I live to a very large degree. energetic (in fact almost too energetic) the past day or so, but of course eating sugar and junk food probably contributed to that.  Actually, I didn’t start having these vivid dreams until my doctor

That sounds like a legitimate fear (not a phobia). Chip – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text –
