Having sleep troubles...?!


Question: I have two parts to my question=)

part A: Ok, when I wake up my mouth is always dead dry. I drink a lot of fluids, and take cough medicine but it never seems to work, I can't talk or breath and it normally takes 3-4 hours to become moist again. Is there a prescription I can get from my doctor to stop this?

part B: I have a lot of things going on in life right now, leading to dreams. I almost always have on every night and they are always random and completely different from each other. But sometimes, I have dreams that are normal and feel really, real. And then I wake up and it's like my dream is happening again; only I'm awake. So my question is: Do dreams mean anything?

yes, sometimes they do. dreams are a way of your brain de-fragmenting itself-just like a computer does. you are really the best person to analyize your own dreams. if you feel one has signifigance, it probably does. talk about your dream out loud, piece by piece and concentrate on the words you use to describe what you experienced. those words, YOUR words, will give you clues as to what the dream's signifigance is to you. pay attention to colors. do you remember a specific color? mostly black usually represents fear. red-passionate about something. many dreams will be non-sensical-again, just the brain dumping random data. IF you have a dream that you feel has significance-a premonition of sorts, you sould probably pay attention to it. dreams can warn us of areas we may be heading down a wrong path, that we are in trouble, or in danger. they can often be insights about ourselves. for instance-you dream your teeth fall out. usually indicates a period of growth, change, and moving on in life-leaving the old behind, as in losing baby-teeth. one of my most frequent dreams is that i'm driving a car, but rather than being in the driver's seat, i may be the passenger, or even in the back seat. the car is slowly moving directly into oncoming traffic and i am desperately trying to get to the brake, or will actually be stepping on the brake and i can't stop the car! this is my brain dealing w/ the fact that i often feel out-of-control about the situations and people around me. i'm trying to STOP their actions and behaviors, but i am powerless to do it. i also constantly dream in GREAT detail of various houses. some are fabulous beyond belief with many rooms. i am searching all over the house for the perfect place for me. some houses will START off really great but the more i investigate them, the more i discover they have serious flaws that need to be addressed. for me the houses partially represent my work and the many fabulous homes i'm in, but my constantly looking for that one "perfect" room i can retreat to is my brain's way of searching for "sanctuary". a place of rest, happiness, and safety. the flawed homes represent the many times i thought i found that place, only to discover it is nothing at all what i had hoped, and i will not find the security or peace i am looking and hoping for. as i said, talk it out to yourself. generally, the FIRST WORDS you use to describe the dream will BE the interpetation. over-analyzing will change the meaning entirely. and yes, dreams can be so vivid you cannot distinguish them from reality. even during waking hours for the 1st 24 hrs especially, you can believe it actually HAPPENED. and again, dreams can have vivid detail. i can have dreams where i can describe everything i saw, experienced, every color, texture, every detail of everything i saw! those are the most intense. i've also discovered that i often re-visit these homes i dream of. i know which rooms to go into and which to avoid! now, as to the dry mouth-are you on antihistamines by any chance? my guess is it's some medication you are taking that is drying out your mouth and body in general. if that's the case, you are doing the best thing you can. plenty of fluids. 1st thing in the morning get some juice down you! hope this helps!

ummm...,wow i don't know wat 2 tell u just stay away from drama maybe that will help =/
