Sadcakesleo Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I hate the mornings. I hate them so much, I just woke up because I had a dream of my ex that we got back together. It felt so real I woke up and panicked and started crying. I hate it. It really drives me crazy.I have anxiety when this happens and it last untill late afternoon. I hate it, It makes me not want to function or go to work.Can anybody give me advice on this, I'm desperate
eagle5 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 That's such a horrible feeling, I have that too and it can affect my mood for the whole day! If I can I go to the gym or for a run as soon as I'm up so I can take out my sadnedd and anger on the weights. I've heard that giving yourself a future goal and meditating in it (or at least visualizing it) for 10 mins or so in the morning is another good idea. Good luck, it's impossible to control your dreams, hopefully they'll start to change by themselves.
Roller EastCoaster Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Its natural and a part of the process to continue dreaming about them. I still dream about her, but I have noticed even if she is a main actor/figure in my dreams for some reason there is less significance attached to the phenomenon in my mind at this point in time. But there is no way to hide from the dreams you will have, after a certain point though you will be less attached to their role in your dream. The mind is recycling your subconscious thoughts/emotions and presenting them to you in some organized form in your dream. Now you are at a stage where the acceptance of your breakup is difficult and is the last thing on your mind. But if you make that iota of effort to carry on for yourself, by yourself (no matter the outcome of whether you get back with her or not) you will attach less and less significance to things that sting like dreams and emotional thoughts/memories.
Author Sadcakesleo Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 I just got off work. I am feeling better,like I said in the afternoon it gets better. I kind of just panicked this morning. The dreams hurt, this whole thing hurts. I feel like I can't heal because we live together.
aln186 Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 It's amazing how vivid some dreams can be. I went through a phase of very little sleep after finally hearing "it's over" from my Ex where I would wake up, half dreaming.... smelling her hair and that shampoo she always used. The best thing so far for me has come from hanging out with my best friend. We talk about old times, careers, anything but "her" and boy does it help me put her out of my mind. I think the key is staying active and more importantly "human interaction". Anything else and she starts creeping into my thoughts. Time heals all wounds, or so they day. Best regards.
