Venting I hate dreaming

[ClaudeCTTE]

Lately, I haven't been able to sleep well. My stupid job (which I just quit) messed up my sleep schedule, and I don't know when I'll be able to sleep well again.

Every day I have weird dreams that are annoying to me because they usually don't have anything really pleasant. What I hate the most is that I always have dreams related to my job or my old schoolmates that I want to forget.
I keep wondering why I have those kinds of dreams every day if during the day I'm never thinking about those things.

In the past, I had more pleasant dreams. I always dreamed that I was inside the video games I played, that I was talking to someone, or that I was playing my favorite songs. But now it seems like I can't have pleasant dreams anymore.

I'd rather live in my fantasies than in the real world or my disgusting dreams.

Now, I've been feeling too tired and I have no motivation to get out of bed. I don't feel like looking for another job.

I don't want to be awake, but I don't want to be asleep dreaming the same things either.

I wish my consciousness would leave this world and remain in the world of my fantasies.

I don't want to be reborn in this world.

I get those a lot to and its awful. Sleep is meant to be the only time I get a relief from pain.

I call them nightmares rather than dreams.

Hope you find something that helps

I understand you.
Nowadays, I live in my fictional fantasies most of the time than in real life.

Unpleasant dreams are very irritating.
I also have bad dreams sometimes.
However, despite everything, I love dreams.
In the past, I had brilliant dreams and regretted them when I woke up.
It felt like a much better real life experience.
They weren't lucid dreams, but it was still great.
However, I have had several cases in the past where I knew I was dreaming, but unfortunately I woke up after a few seconds.
Unfortunately, you need to train to be able to dream consciously.

I feel you, I've always had extremely vivid dreams that leave me waking up exhausted, even back in my days of severe weed dependancy. I just want a long, dreamless sleep for once (maybe that's why I want to die so bad lol)

I am plagued with extremely vivid night terrors. I used to go through phases where I'd have them for a month or two, but then they'd go away for a year. Now, however, I have been having them nightly for years. I have read that THC can be helpful in reducing or eliminating them. (I can't take it because I'm a caregiver.) The caveat is that they can come back stronger (at least for a time) when you go off them. I feel like maybe it would help if I could do some kind of meditation or similar before I go to bed. But I'm just not good at self-help stuff.

most of my dreams are something terrible happening to me, like me fighting with my parents, my dog dying or remembering the times of bullying at school. Sometimes I wake up really pissed off because I dreamed I was being bullied by an idiot.
However, I like nightmares that have nothing to do with my reality, like being trapped in a haunted house or being chased by an evil entity - Probably because they are the only times I feel emotion thats not anger or sadness in this apathetic life.

I stopped dreaming a long time ago. Not sure what the reason is, maybe my brain just blocks it all out automatically now. Sleep is never enough, and though sometimes I miss dreaming, whenever I do dream they're never pleasant, so maybe that's a good thing.
