Why do I keep having this reoccurring dream?!


Question: Why do I keep having this reoccurring dream?
Here's the dream: I'm working at my tattoo shop and an inspector comes in, looks around and says my shop looks great and perfectly clean and he said he can't officially pass me yet until I get tested for HIV and Hepititus C and B. Next thing I remember is that I'm suddenly in the doctors office where the nurse gives me the test results. I never see the results because I always wake up.

Btw, for real, about six months ago, i really did go and get tested for those diseases and all came back Negative. Thank god! :-). And the state and health inspector never asked me to get tested, but i still did it 4 peace of mind.

Do i keep dreaming that cause I'm paranoid and worry way too much?

Answers:

I have your answer:

Because you work in an environment where you are CONSTANTLY exposed to blood born pathogens, this ia a daily fear for you.
And although you are well and healthy, the next client in the chair may not be. And this is the reason for your recurring nightmare. You live with the constant reality of being exposed to disease every day....like a health care worker.
And so, give yourself a little review about how to avoid exposure to blood and body tissue when working with people. Wear a mask, eye protection and gloves and go over sterile procedure.

Remember that there are people who work in health care labs all across the country and are exposed as much as you are to these things every day. Yet they work successfully in these careers for decades and never become infected themselves. And so you will do well to remember that you are just like them and you need to protect yourself in the same way they do.

I wish you all the best.



It is possible that you keep having this dream not because you are paranoid, but because you are heavily involved or concerned about your work. i.e. working too hard. If you love what you are doing normally this should not be a big deal, but if the dream(s) surrounding ones work environs cause you to lose sleep all together, then you may want to take some time off for a vacation. Doing this can relive the stress you may be feeling that inspires the dream reoccurance.
