I had a dream that kind of pissed me off last night. Tried to bludgeon a murderous cynical dirtbag to death but the dream made anything I do a thousand times weaker. I mean, that's pretty standard in dreams, but that dude specifically deserved it and I was denied justice.

Been there before, it will come eventually with repeated occurrences. It's acted like Groundhog Day with some things with me.

Going to take the bus out for my weekly therapy appointment; maybe I'll bring up the topic of dreams, as I've had so many rather vivid ones lately.

From what I've experienced, they seem to scale towards more vivid, based on current quality of life (i.e. Stress level). Plus, the general idea of brain activity being obviously greater. What is exactly firing during that time I'd love to know. It seems to be that the better off I am in regards to mental state, the greater the intensity and frequency.

Lots of stress, here. It's been a hard year...without explaining, it's kind of a miracle i am still here and alive? I mean, it's come precariously close to not being, a few times now.

But my dreams are mainly peaceful---a retreat, perhaps?

No need to explain, and to see how you interact here with others in spite of that experience, speaks volumes for your character as a person.

I'm unsure, as modern psychology is still a young science with lots of unanswered questions. I almost (and still may) changed majors to psychology when I had to take those classes. I don't think you can really get a perfect answer to that question, because it appears that the chemistry is slightly different from one person, to the next. We do function as products of our particular individual environments.

Why does everyone have such bad times? Many people are complaining today. Was it better the last 10 years?
I personally feel very stressed, everyone has expectations from me, my parents, my teachers and I worry if my graduation is good enough to pay the bills in my future and maybe to do a vacation every 8 years. But I just can't study 24/7 , this costs me too much energy and I'm happy when I've got time to write/talk to people on this forum. Do you have similar problems?
To forget the pressure and the stress I need to deal with I just shut off my brain and do something relaxing or stuff that makes me happy (FAF, Youtube).
When I lie in my bed and try to sleep but I have to much worries in my head I just listen to ASMR or read a book.

As people get older, they gather more life experience to reflect from. Sometimes it's joy, other times it can lead to regrets. I have a highly unbalanced amount of the latter myself. It's healthy to do this in either way. What is important, is how you take these experiences and learn from them. If you can learn from them, and let them go after their purpose is served, then you can move forward.

You're going to worry about how you're doing, if it's something that is important. That's a good tool to use, to value what you feel should have priority at the time. You've set a standard for yourself, and being stressed about that goal should make you strive to achieve it. Very few people set a goal and glide easily to success. If they do, it wasn't a challenge in the first place.

If you don't challenge yourself, you'll never find your limit of potential.

I'm nearing 30 and having a nearing 30 crisis. Also, relationship issues. Trying to figure out what I want to do. If I want to go back to school. I feel like I'll never have it down right, but I still feel like I'm better off than some of the other people that I see out there. So I try not to let things get me down.

I rarely have vivid dreams... I also rarely have nightmares. I honestly don't have a lot of dreams (lately) that seem to stand out to me, or that I avidly remember.
Even though I've been pretty stressed lately with what's going on in my family.

This year has been tough for me too, events happening and other stressing factors drove me to seek therapy again (after not having gone in about 10 years) in order to learn better ways to cope and communicate. A better job with better people, benefits, pay, and atmosphere has helped immensely, however a lot of things fight hard to bring me down.

No worries, there's usually several people around throughout the day.
