Last night in a dream I got lost in a huge grocery store parking lot and walked so much that I had to lie down in some grass. When I got up to continue looking for my car, I realized that I had lost my shoes too. I began to look for them and just gave up and started crying.
Some of the meds I take contribute to my crazy dreams. But these type of dreams make my anxiety worse. I dread going to sleep because of dreams like getting lost. I feel lost in my waking life and sometimes I don't see a way out. I know if my situation or frame of mind changed my dreams would change. But I don't which way to go, literally.

Hi there Manxcatwoman,
Those dreams can be scary and worrysome. I too have been in similar dreams to that. In fact one year I went to Disneyworld and forgot what lot I was parked on and only until after the park had been closed an hour and most of the traffic left could I find my tiny little honda crx. I was really freaking out that I would never find it and kept beating myself up for not memorizing the lot I was on and their parking lots are for acres and acres of parking. I about cried when I finally found my car and got back on the road to my hotel.
You are not alone.
Much Peace,
