While there is really no need to ask what one thinks my dreams mean, I would like to know if anyone else has recurring dreams night after night about failure. Mine go like this:
I have either a new job or I'm dreaming of my past jobs as a Legal Assistant (which I did for 20 years) and I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. I'm praying that I figure it out before anyone realizes it and fires me. I am pretending to be busy until it comes to me; or
I am at the theatre on opening night, I have the lead (which I did for thirty years) and I do not know the lines, or the music or the blocking and I'm trying to learn it all before the curtain goes up; or
I'm anywhere trying to do anything and my legs simply will not allow me to stand up or walk. Now, a year ago last week I broke my foot, ankle and leg, but I had this dream for several years before that. Then my legs were numb, not painful, now they hurt.
I guess I'm wondering if anyone has successfully stopped having these nasty dreams and how.
