I'd like to know if these 2 dreams mean anything and if so what do they mean?

The first one was that I went to my PCP and was telling him how I felt like none of my meds were helping me besides one that he didn't prescribe for my kidneys and he pretty much refused to change anything about any of them. I take both Citalopram and Wellbutrin for depression and I read somewhere that Citalopram can cause muscle spasms and I think that that's the only thing it is doing for me so I am hoping when I go for a physical in January he'll change that one and up my meds for sleep, and to help the muscle spasms and actually give me something for pain that is better than Hydrocodone, but deep down I know he probably won't change any of it so this one went the way I expected it to.

My second dream didn't exactly go the way I expected. In it a friend of mine that, I've known since high school, came home from England where she is currently living with her Air Force husband and their 7 kids she stayed for a while but after a while I had found something important that I really wanted to show her and I couldn't find her anywhere in my home. I looked outside and her car was gone but she didn't tell me she had to go or that she was leaving.

If anyone can help me figure out these 2 dreams I'd be grateful!

The 1st. dream is about real life feelings. The 2nd. one is a part of yourself that has left you.

Wow, they both seem kind of dark but thanks for the insight

Dear Nala5065,

All dreams mean something.
Something has been bothering you for a period of time and you have not dealt with so it is now unfolding/coming out in your dreams.
I am a bit confused, did/have you gone back to your doctor and did he not prescribe different meds? What i am asking was this a dream that played out in real life?

If so, I would see a different doctor. Sleep medications have a tendency to not be as effective if you have been on them for a while, the same as pain meds, therefore you should be firm with your doctor and don't wait until January.
The emotional parts of your dreams, anxiety, fear, loss and pain. Twisted with presumptions of worst case expectations. Next time you have a dream, know that you are in control and there are no expectations. Allow the dream to tell itself.
Good/Bad allow it to unfold as it does. Then work with what you have. l

The second dream, of missed opportunity to tell/show someone you cared about something important. Them leaving without saying goodbye. This is sadness.

Dreams don't go the way you expect them to but they can help us understand unresolved feelings.
I hope this helps,
Happiedasiy

I have kind of dealt with the doctor not helping with my meds before, but I've never been one to handle conflict well so I don't really know how to convince the doctor that I really do need different meds. I am thinking that I do need need to get a new doc. I guess I should look into that. Thanks!!

The part that left you, was a part you no longer needed. You are no longer like your friend.

The reason I said they were both kind of dark is because even though the first one went like I expected it to, I hate that I don't know how to convince my doctor that I need more than what I am getting. The second one was dark because I felt like I had lost my friend even though I know I haven't

Do you feel more distant from your friend in real life? As far as your Meds. go, I think your doctor is doing the right thing. Do not be afraid to ask your doctor why.

I don't really feel more distant from her, but she does live in England right now and I barely talk to her even once a month. I mean we talk on Facebook, but as far as hearing her voice it's usually less than once a month.

With the doctor, he and I have NEVER gotten along and he accuses me of "self-diagnosing" when I should know my body better than he does. The only reason I have stayed with him as long as I have was because in 2000 he did save my life. I had a surgery to put bags on both sides of my body for my bodily functions because of my disability which makes it where I can't control those functions and one of the doctors who did the surgery said I'd be in the hospital 7-14 days and it ended up being 6 1/2 weeks because my blood pressure bottomed out during surgery and my pulse didn't go below 170 for 4 weeks and the last 2 1/2 weeks it didn't go below 140 both even with me being asleep. So I kind of think I owe him for keeping me alive, but then again 14 years of putting up with him telling me I don't need what I say I need is ridiculous! Probably means I should start trying to find another doctor if he doesn't listen when I go for my next physical in a couple of months.
