All the dreams I've ever had that I can remember:
-Since I was little, I've had this recurring dream where I start on one side of a wall and there's a tiny little door a la Alice in Wonderland. I open it and enter. On the other side is a turquoise-colored world with a glass stage and a troupe of dancing toothpicks. Their routine seems very cult-ish, like they are trying to awaken something. From the sky slowly drops a huge wad of what appears to be ground beef. It is skewered by the toothpicks.
-My first nightmare was that all the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were murdered by some yellow villain. There was blood.
-I recurringly have nightmares where I am stalked and hunted by large animals, usually lions or bears and usually in residential areas like neighborhoods. Sometimes they take place and around my own home, either imaginary, real, or a home from the past. A lion once stalked me for what seemed like hours in my childhood home except the entire bottom floor was one big garage. I always seem to outrun them with superhuman speed, but just barely. I have a conscious fear of big animals that have too much physical power for me to overcome such as lions, tigers, bears, sharks, alligators, etc. Dreaming about them could be a manifestation of this fear. I have also been told that it might represent a fear of losing control or not being in control of my own destiny. I am tempted to believe this (see my last post).
-On multiple occasions, I have dreamt that my teeth are rotting. I look in the mirror and my usually perfectly yellow teeth have large brown cavities in them. Not enough to be ridiculous, just enough to be scary and somewhat real.
-When I was in the mental hospital, I remember dreaming of being in a rocket. I think I also dreamt of a hot air balloon ride not long after that. I sure wanted to get out of adolescence by unconventional means.
-My favorite dreams (when I remember them) are about video games. Sometimes I make up new game mechanics in my dreams. That's the ultimate creative expression for me, when I make something up in my head and live it out in a dream.
-My wet dreams are nothing but horrible. They have involved detachable penises and old men among other things. I'll just leave it at that.
