i have horrible nightmares every single time i fall asleep whether at night or when i lay down for a nap with my son. i often wake up in a frantic sweat, and it takes me a moment to realize it was only a dream.
these dreams usually consist of the men in my life. my father, my boyfriend, and my brother.

i dream that my father beats me up really bad (used to be abusive), that he hates me, thaT HE WILL KICK ME OUT OR DOES. oops caps. that he leaves me and my son on the side of the road after driving, and the worst of all is the dream where i am a child and he molests me or i am an adult and he rapes me.... which has never happened and no, i dont believe it is any type of repressed memory.

the ones of my boyfriend are he cheats on me without guilt and gloats in my face about it, he beats me, rapes me, tries to take my son from me, doesn't love me.... basically any bad situation with a partner.

my brother i dream that he hates me (i look up to him) or that he dies... which is worse (he's in the military)

i know i have the bad dreams because of depression but i always wonder why i dream such horrible things that have never happened or show signs of may happening.

it's just strange.
