Crazy Dream

A couple of nights ago, I dreamt I had gone crazy, i.e. insane. I can't recall enough of the dream now to be able to describe it in any great amount of detail. In retrospect it seems as though it was a fairly long dream with lots of different parts that I no longer recall. But at the time, upon waking up, it was vivid. This is not the first time I've had dreams of this sort. Although, on the other hand, they're not frequent either.

About all I can remember now, about this particular dream is that the setting was late at night... perhaps 1, 2 or 3 AM. (Allot of my more vivid dreams seem to take place in the dark of the night.) I may have been sitting in some public place with nothing on but my undershorts, I think. I believe I may have had a blanket over my shoulders, although I'm not sure about this. There were other people around. I don't know who they were. But, if I were to take a guess, I would say I was probably in some sort of hospital or clinic setting.

Somehow I became aware that the people around me were going to be calling someone or someplace... maybe a psych ward or hospital staff? I seem to recall that I was shivering & kind-of dizzy & disoriented... maybe dissociative. I had the distinct understanding that I had finally lost it. I had finally gone completely mad & nothing would ever be the same again.

I woke up while this dream was still in progress. I don't recall that the dream frightened me. In fact I kind-of wished I could have gone back to sleep & "finished it off." The dream simply left me with the feeling that something inevitable had finally come to pass. What I do wonder about though is: if this is the type of subject matter my subconscious is assembling into a dream, what does that say about what's going on way down there where I cannot see?

This looks more like a dream of Healing to me. That "Something Inevitable" was your Healing. When you Heal, nothing will be the same again.

Thanks for this reply, Thunder Bow... I hadn't thought of it in those terms!
