I posted this in the Sleep Disturbance/Dream Interpretation forum, but no one seems to have a clue. Since I have DPD, I thought I'd post it here in hopes that maybe one of you can help:
In the past two weeks I have experienced some of the most disturbing dreams I have ever dreamt.
Dream "one" - I found myself in what appeared to be a slaughter house/meat processing plant. The building was old, unfamiliar, seemed to be all metal and there was a lot of rust around the air vents. There was this conveyer belt of sorts - the type that they hang skinned cattle on to be inspected and processed. Instead of cattle there were human bodies on hooks. It was as if the bodies were on their way to be embalmed and fixed up for their funerals. Blood was trickling out of their necks. I don't remember if there was anyone there with me or not, I want to say that there were people around. After these images, I woke up.
Dream "two" - I was in the woods and there was snow around, probably a foot of snow. There was blood in the snow on a bank. An ATV was speeding off into the woods. I came across someone that I knew in my dream, but have no idea about in reality. This male figure was injured and somehow, I killed him to take him out of his misery and suffering. He was evidently the husband of a familial figure, like an aunt, but not one that I recognize in reality. Anyway, I transported the body to what seemed like a morgue. I performed some sort of botched autopsy on the body. There was blood everywhere...blood, metal and a dead body. I ended up becoming very paranoid because of what I had done. I was scared of police and scared of this "aunt" figure. I ended up stuffing the body into a locker. My last image in the dream was blood seeping out of the bottom sides of the locker and then I suddenly woke up.
Now, I have had some really effed up dreams in the past, but these two almost top the most bizarre dreams I have had. There's nothing out of the ordinary happening in my life right now, it is business as usual.
Anyone good at dream interpretation to help me understand what the hell these dreams might mean in waking life? These images are disturbing. I'm trying not to obsess over them, but it is difficult to NOT think about them.
Someone help me, please!

I avoid anything violent. I consider myself Buddhist, so I live a very positive life, which is why these dreams are so disturbing. I do not play video games, either. I attend meditation at our local Buddhist temple every Thursday night for two hours. I have no idea where these images/dreams are coming from or why they're so morbid. I have never been a violent person and rarely ever have violent thoughts. I am at a loss for explanation. I am disturbed to the point of not wanting to fall asleep in fear that my mind may conjure more of these really strange dreams. As you can imagine, being Buddhist, I spend a lot of time in nature and positive thinking. I am quite perturbed. I'm thinking that maybe I should seek counseling or psychiatric help. I just don't understand the nature of these dreams - what do they mean...what is my subconscious trying to release or tell me? I am deeply disturbed.

dream interpretation is one of those things where its individualized meaning the only person that can tell you what your dream means is you and your own treatment providers because its your dream and dreams are reactions to what a person experiences and their emotions and other individualized things.

if this continues to bother you contact your treatment providers they can tell you why you are having this dream and how to stop it based on your own individual needs and reasons behind this dream

I heard that sometimes you can have bad dreams if you change your diet. Eating something you don't usually eat. I don't know how true that is but you never know.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
