Hi, is it possible that repressed memories are revealed in repeated dreams?
I've had several dreams about abuse, since I was a child and later in my 20s and it repeated now. I do have some real memories about the subject but they are quite mild and definitely not as violent and serious as what I've seen in my dreams. However the dreams seemed real. I suffer from cptsd, have anxiety and dissociation and depersonalisation issues but I've got other traumatic events that could have caused that. I'm extremely confused by this. Is there a way to know if such a dream is based on reality? I really don't want it to be true and I currently have a good relationship with that person and don't want to ruin it. However, there's a little tiny bug in my mind bothering me what if...? |

No thoughts, suggestions, experiences? I'm not asking for you telling me if my dreams are true or not. Just interested in general info or your own experiences...

This is probably a good question for a therapist. I was abused as a child—and never spoke about it until much later, and then only in layers. I pushed the abuse to the back recesses of my mind—but I always knew it was there. I did have some dreams about some of it—and I walked in my sleep a lot.
If I was you, I’d ask someone with psychological knowledge—cause I don’t know for sure. I wish you much luck…

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