I've been suffering from sleep deprivation for about 13 years. I never enter REM sleep without medication (it doesn't always work). What I really want to address is I NEVER dream something pleasant. It's always a situation where I'm let down.... EXAMPLE, If I dream about an ex boyfriend, he's cheating on me and ALWAYS chooses the other woman. I'm left feeling inadequate, humiliated and I'm going to spend the rest of my life alone.
Not sure what to make of it because I always walk away from bad relationships. I have been told I give up too easy but I leave because I don't feel loved and I have a low to zero tolerance for games, liars, users, and opportunist. I despise being used or taken for granted.
