Keeping to my recent theme of dreams and all stuff sleepy, I'm going to write up a very intense dream /sleep paralysis episode I had. This will probably be my strangest post to date so be warned.
To set the scene, it was about two years ago, not to my full knowledge my mum and step dad were in the process of splitting up. I was going through a pretty ruff patch, I couldn't really speak to my family or friends properly. I would never look people in the eyes when talking to them, i was a very lonely and unhappy man. Even with my friends I would not be able to have proper fun with because my mind was always racing with one kind of pointless panic or another.
But anyway back to the dream. I was drifting off to sleep after a long night shift (which i was working at the time). When all I could here out side my bedroom was my brother and my step dad talking about the xbox in the hallway just outside my bedroom. I should have been thinking "what the hell are you doing talking so loud out side my bedroom when I'm trying to sleep" but at the time I was just thinking, "why cant I have a good flowing chat like that with them". Before I knew it I herd my sister turn up with her children. I was now thinking " great sleeping is going to get a lot easier now" little did I know i was the only one in the house and I was already well asleep.
As I started what i thought was the beginning of my dream, i found myself in work as normal just walking around doing my normal duties. Which wasn't a great deal at the time. I was cleaning so just busy looking for mess around an old grease ridden factory, there happend to be plenty of mess....... as usual.
It was getting close to lunch time so I started walking towards the gate to go home, like i did most lunch times. The fact it was broad daylight and I was supposed to be on night shift, suddenly hit home and when my friend who didn't even work there asked me "are you alright?". I just looked him in the eyes and said, "no mate i think I'm dreaming" he looked back at me puzzled. "don't be stupid", he said with a angry look on his face. " i'm Telling the truth" i barked back at him. " watch this " I slowly started to open one eye and remember looking round my bedroom, and thinking. " I'm dreaming" and closed my eyes to return to the dream.
To be continued ..........
