Hi Everyone,

Lately I’ve found myself addicted to dreaming. I’m noticing how often I want to figure things out by going back to sleep. I’ve been having trouble waking up, sometimes sleeping for 12-13 hours, simply because I don’t want to stop dreaming. I’ve always been a vivid dreamer and have always respected the power of how our minds work during sleep. I have files of recorded dreams and I can confidently say that I’ve learned a lesson from each of them. The only problem is that I’m exhausted upon waking. Even though I get a lot out of my dreams, I feel like I’m working harder in my sleep than I do when I’m awake > (sometimes I have full on therapy sessions while sleeping!) Part of me knows that I’m afraid to deal with certain things in the “waking” world and that the excessive sleep is part of my depression acting out. But another part of me believes that this is just a weird way of how I do things.

So, kind of a weird question, but have any of you ever found yourself trying to solve your issues more through dreams rather than real life?

Sweet dreams. ~ Bee
