Dream: I dream that I am sleeping in my bed to be awakened by these large alien bugs that come at me as I lie in my bed. They are not just bugs that happen to be near me, they are purposefully advancing on me as if they have been sent to kill. I begin screaming not only in my dream, but in reality at the top of my lungs according to my husband, and if he doesn't catch me in time, I bolt out of bed and start sprinting for the front door while screaming my head off. When he wakes me up, even if he gets me before I start running, my heart is pounding, and I'm basically balling my eyes out because it is so real. He's ready to get his own room because it's such a frightening sight. I don't know how our neighbors haven't called the cops, because it sounds like I'm being brutally attacked.
I need to resolve whatever feelings I have that are causing these dreams. My husband goes on 3 month grave rotations, and will go to working graves again next month. There will be no one home to wake me, or catch me before I run outside the house. I don't want to be running around in the street in the middle of the night. I consider myself to bea pretty self aware person, but I just can't figure out what unresolved emotions are trying to manifest in these dreams.
