Cpl Vic Burk7230768<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have been trying to find a way to ask this question for weeks now. I am a math teacher, not an English teacher so I may know what I want to say but it doesn't always come out how I want it. I am looking for any answers so here goes:<br /><br />I have been having dreams for years about my military time, waking up in the middle of the night and sitting up on the edge of the bed or jumping out of bed sometimes trying to figure out where I am. For the last couple years I have had a recurring dream about being on a railroad track with a train coming at me. The dream is as clear as day. It's a Norfolk Southern locomotive engine number 4017. In the dream and in my mind I know I need to get off the tracks but my legs won't let me. I always wake up just before the train reaches me. The first time I had it I blew it off however, I have had this same dream no less that six times. I keep asking myself why am I having this dream. I have tried to do research on dreams and what they mean but never seem to find any answers. <br /><br />I tried talking to my wife about it but she gets to worked up over it. She has enough to worry about with her health without adding this to her list of worries. <br /><br />Is anyone else having recurring dreams like this? Any suggestions? Might I add, the last time I had it I was hearing the theme song to M*A*S*H.<br />What do dreams mean?2021-08-30T20:08:00-04:00Cpl Vic Burk7230768<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have been trying to find a way to ask this question for weeks now.

The easiest explanation is an ‘unresolved conflict’...sorry if it sounds like psycho babble. Have you ever made yourself ‘stay’ asleep and finish the dream? I’ve used both methods and was successfulResponse by SPC Nancy Greene made Aug 30 at 2021 10:07 PM2021-08-30T22:07:45-04:002021-08-30T22:07:45-04:00LTC David Brown7231664<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I dream I am in a hospital trying to provide care to patients and the hospital is an old wear house. I can’t find things etc. I believe it’s due to anxiety about my old job. I also had recurrent dreams about school. Being in a class room with no idea what is going on. Again I think it is related to anxiety.Response by LTC David Brown made Aug 31 at 2021 6:41 AM2021-08-31T06:41:11-04:002021-08-31T06:41:11-04:002021-08-30T20:08:00-04:00
