Huh. Another weird dream.

<font color="purple">Well, this dream was a bit too complex to remember much of, but what i do remember was that it was lucid. Unlike my last few dreams were it is very clearly a dream. In any case, in this dream I discovered via therapy/flashback/whatever you want to call it, that I was s. Abused when I was a little kid. (for reference, I had a dream like this before, and it was during the same time period this event supposedly happened) this dream DIDN'T do into detail on the mater (and if it did then I don't remember because it has been a little over 9 hours since i woke up this morning) I wasn't an emotional wreck or anything...but it was still unsettling news to me so I posted about it here on PC...in the dream apparently I had 10 replies, but I never had time to check them before dad woke me up this morning.

I told my friend about the dream- but only the part were I was s. abused as a kid, she said it's probably your inner child calling out to me because I abuse it and it probably hates me. Her moral of the story: say possitive because whenever you put yourself down, you are also abusing your inner child.

...yeah, not much else to say here. </font>

It almost sounds like you were more interested in how many replies you got than the content of the dream within the dream? Maybe you feel you need to have really shocking/horrible problems to post here because some people always seem to have had worse lives/experiences than we have or be more messed up?

<font color="purple">Makes sense to me. I feel so bad though when I actualy THINK about what I do, it's like even though I get a perfectly good amount of attention it just isn't good enough for me...even though I know it's self-centered and irrational, no matter how much love and attention i get from the people around me...it's just not enough. It never was. Even though its bad, I want to have some sort of illness so people feel sorry for me and comfort me.

...it doesn't help that everyone around me is worse off then I am, and then it's like "What the hell are YOU complaining about? Quit being so self centered and so self-pitifal! I bet these people WISH they had as good a life as you do, and what do you do? You whine." </font>

What we want and need is what we want and need; it isn't either good or bad! It's like some people are introverts and others extroverts; people who don't like to party aren't bad people just because other people do. We all have different wants and needs.

And comparing one's self with others can't possibly work because each of us only has themselves to work with. What is easy for me might be hard for you and vice versa; what's hard for me might be easy for you.

It's interesting to me watching my 4 year old granddaughter and 3 year old grandson. My grandson, when we babysit, has a horrible time waking from his nap; he cries and cries and if you try to comfort, he screams :-) No matter who it is, unless it is his mother, he ain't having none of it. My stepson says he sometimes sends in the granddaughter because he does better with her too; she'll just start playing and include him in and he'll forget it's the end of the world and start playing too.

We have different personalities and problems we face and they're not better or worse than anyone else's. My mother died when I was 3 and here's my grandson whose mother has never left him; he's never spent a night away from her. There's nothing bad about him, that's just him and what he was born with and needs. My daughter-in-law was laughing the other day because she says she feels she understands him well, he's very much like she was :-) That's all we need, people around us who are interested in us and help us be the best we can be.

Maybe what you are needing and looking for is something different from what you have been asking for? Could it be that there is something else that is needed and you don't know quite what it may be or how to ask for it?

Ive always had kooky dreams. Some I could see how my brain created them, some fragments of things I had seen or thought of during the day, and wow sometimes I really compliment my brain on being so creative when it puts everything together!! Some of them are odd and I want to scold my brain for thinking of such things. A month ago I had a dream of a police officer I know just in his tighty wities! I told him about it too because I couldnt look at him the same way without wanting to burst out laughing so it felt good to get it out of my head! Okay that was a random thought, but when someone mentions dreams, I think of all the things i dream about everyday and then I want to tell the whole world my stories.
