Do recurring dreams haunt you?


I have a recurring dream. I do not remember my dreams every night or even every week. In fact I rarely remember a dream. Yet there is one dream that haunts me from time to time. It is a dark and stormy night. (cliché, I know) I am driving along a lonely road in the country. It is windy and raining, lightning and thunder split the night. A tree falls across the road, crushing the back of my car. I manage to open the door and get out and find myself frightened and alone. I am soaking wet with nowhere to go. The storm gathers strength. I start to wander along the road. I am in a strange place, nothing is familiar. I see a light on in a house in the distance so I make my way along the road and up the drive way. I must be injured because I have to crawl, actually drag myself forward. It takes a long time and I am filthy, cold and scared. I manage to get to the steps of the porch but no further. I cannot drag myself up the stairs. I have no strength to call out for help. I feel as if all hope is gone. This is when I wake up.

I have had this dream for many years now, not often but still it is worrisome.

What do you think it means? Is there something I need to do?  Is there an issue I need to resolve?

    It sounds like you have long term goal that you are having problems achieving. You are cold and afraid to speak to anyone to reflect how insensitive or uncaring a situation feels. A house with a light is in the distance to reflect your hope for the future.

  2. I have had dreams like that in the past. I think you are trying to tell yourself something and only you know the answer. You must be honest with yourself and look inside.
