Bad Dreams about ex !!

I just woke up a min ago and I had a really bad dream involving my ex. I woke up sweating real bad and crying I can't remember everthing that happend in the dream I woke up real fast and just cried. Is this part of the healing process because right now I feel like crap I have went through NC for about 2 weeks now and im not hurting as bad but now im having bad dreams is this normal ?

Not only do I wake up that way most mornings, but sometimes i wake up in the middle of the night crying. This really sucks. I just keep thinking the sooner I get done healing the more hope I have of finding the right person to spend my life with. Feel your feelings, it has to get better. We can't feel like this forever. Time heals all wounds, yet sometimes time goes so slow.

Hey guy's and gals

These "bad" dreams are quite normal - they suck though and can really set you up for a bad day. There is not much you can do about them though. They will pass with time - you just have to suck it up for now.

The only thing I would say though is that certain foods ( ie garlic, spicy, cheese) eaten late at night can have a tendancy to make you dream more and with all this breakup stuff so fresh and raw - if you dream - the probablilty is that you will dream about "them". Try to avoid those sorts of food later on in the evening.

Take of yourselves y'all.

Mark

Yeah bad dreams, vivid dreams of the ex's happen, I woke up also early this morning cause of one.

It was disturbing and I remember crying and running away from him being in a right state because he was sitting telling me about all his conquests since we split and that he F**gered one of them etc etc

Prob hence my bad mood today, nothing we can do about them though apart from someone suggested to me getting any supressed thoughts out the way before I go to bed???

(((((((hugs hun)))))))))))
