How Do We Dream? - My Life as a Multiple #37
-
I was just thinking the other day that people might wonder how we dream? For instance, does the main personality do the dreaming or do the alters all dream? What happens? Well, for us, it is usually me that dreams. This is because sometimes I have to do dreamwork with the other alters and work out problems and things. So, I guess at this time I would be lucid dreaming. But that's not all the dreaming that happens.
Angel dreams and she has nightmares. They are horrible and are usually about a menacing man who is chasing her. She sometimes makes sets about her dreams on her profile or on @Houseofstone . Everyone seems to feel more comfortable creating their processing sets on the house of stone profile.
Many of the littles have nightmares. Mia dreams of a witch that is trying to get her between the rails on her baby bed. Skye just sucks his thumb sometimes in his sleep.
The rest of my system dreams the way normal people do. It seems like if one alter is bothered by something, then he or she will dream that night. Jesse often asks what we dreamed about. Jesse is very good at dream interpretation through his alter Yeshu'a. Everyone comes to Jesse to get their disturbing dreams interpreted. I will tell Jesse, "Well, Kole dreamed about this hall of mirrors and it was like a funhouse and he couldn't find his way out." Then Jesse will interpret the dream for us. For instance in the case of this dream, we found out Kole was struggling with a personal problem and he couldn't find a solution. Mirrors usually mean a reflection of ourselves and what we think of ourselves. But Kole didn't really look at himself in the mirror. When he did, he saw a confused man who was looking for the way out. So we helped him with some possible solutions to his problem and he was happy.
It can sometimes be difficult with so many alters dreaming their dreams. I don't remember all of the dreams different alters have but I will usually remember who dreamed. Sometimes we can just check in with that alter and be sure nothing is wrong. I usually direct them to process through art on their profile. Some do and some don't.

Glad Jesse and his alters can help you interpret the dreams and try to find solutions. God bless you sweet lady, I too hope writing helps you. I am inspired by your courage everyday, your talent is amazing, love and hugs!

@sjlew Sweetheart, you describe it so well! I am fatigued most days and it is hard to deal with so many voices both at night and during the day. I can say I am used to it and it is the only thing I have ever known so it's not as confusing or scary as it might be for others. My doctor helps a lot with medication and Jesse is just a godsend with his understanding and love. I don't know where I would be without Jesse and people like you who so sweetly and genuinely offer me their friendship and support. Please know I thank God for you every day in my prayers. I pray for you too and I hope it helps. Thank you so much for your faithfulness!!! It means the world!!!
Hugs and love, Nikki xoxo
