And as far as the people in your dreams and kind of being disconnected, that is pretty normal as well in my opinion, can mean a sense of not really trusting or totally understanding them or them not understanding you in your mind.
And your brain DOES like doing cartoon images and you DO work on that so your brain will store stuff there and even draw on that to process what you take in during the day, and that means all that you see, hear, and learn and question during the day, some of which you may not remember thinking.
If you think about what kind of goals you have, where some of your genetic talent lies, your brain is going to store things there. Eventually that YOU in your work will start to take hold as time goes on and your brain is actually working on that a little bit every night. And you are looking at things differently now because you are working on being adult and no longer a child. So those two worlds can intertwine for a while.
For example, my husband?, he is a builder so his dreams are a lot about building and resolving all his daily challenges. LOL, I have to keep a pillow between us because he can throw his arms around as he sometimes is building and hammering in his sleep.

This was more-so a summary of my dreams throughout my life than lately; I don't think my health is doing so much to alter them; they haven't been excessively different lately.
My dreams aren't normally very vivid though, and my thoughts in general, in fact, are very abstract unless I have something to look at and focus on, that's why I listed those realistic dreams when listing my more odd dreams, such as the emotionally absent dreams or the flying ones.
I know in many instances, dreams represent our subconscious in one way or another. From what I've read, the dreams I have indicate feelings that things are being thrust at me and a drive to protect someone.
My goals have influenced my entire life, even if now they come to a clearer point (leaving high school and going to college and getting jobs and such) but in my mind there isn't much difference and hasn't ever been as I grew up. It just seems to be a transitioning from one repetitive world to another.
Perhaps off-topic here but something (I can't even identify what now, but i know something in what you wrote) made me think of aspergers..
My closest friend suggested I may have aspergers recently, he said I reminded him of Savants (I of course laughed that off, as I'm no where near so talented) but it got me thinking.. I've been friends with mentally challenged kids all my life (literally, children with autism and downs syndrome and otherwise I wouldn't derogatorily call people this) I show several of the symptoms of (higher-functioning people with ) aspergers. I asked my mom and she thought the idea was plausible (then told me "Get over it
those people have to live on their own and work too" not that I made any type of comment on wanting to stay home or not work >.>"..)
I'm an artist and student but have never had specifically art-related dreams or school oriented dreams (school has only been a location really for other cooler action-y dreams to take place, lol).
