Odd...Dream?

So lately I've been having this reoccuring thought...almost like a dream but I'm awake when it happens.

Basically, I'll be standing around doing nothing special. Thinking mostly. All the sudden it's like my vision gets blurry and I lose focus on what's going on. Apparently my mom has to practically yell at me to get my attention when it happens. I just kind of stare off into space for a few seconds sometimes a minute or so. It almost feels like...I don't really know how to describe it. Like a memory? Like something from a past life or something crazy, I don't know.

Anyways, I'm always walking through these woods, it's usually dark but there have been a few times where it was so bright. So I'll be walking through these weird woods, and I notice this...Door? Like a storm cellar, or a bunker entrance or something. The closer I get to this door or hatch or whatever it is, the more painful it becomes to get closer towards it. I feel like I'm getting tired. Like the energy or motivation is just being pulled right out of me.

Now I know this is probably just a daydream or a full blown dream, but I am honest to god SCARED to open this door. I snap out of this little phase and I feel a tightening in my stomach. Like it's twisting in knots.

What is this? Is there a name for this type of thing? Should I check myself into some looney bin? It feels like I've been there before, but it scares me to the point where I close myself off after it happens. What should I do about it?

  2. Your subconscious is trying to tell you something. Perhaps talk to someone who has experience with finding the meaning of dreams.

  10. could be a seizure. I was diagnosed with them when I was like 7 or 8. Dr's did some cat scans and found scars on the back of my brain. was determined it was from a car wreck when i was like 2. also was diagnosed with migraine headaches. All I ever knew I was I had what I called dizzy spells. would just kinda "stare off into space" and dream like.

  13. Hah, the matrix indeed. Hopefully your dream was just a spot of bad cheese.

  22. I'm pretty good at understanding dreams, but.. not this one.

    Only thing I can think of is a memory your brain is blocking. Something that happened to you in the woods as an infant.

  30. Next time open the door and see if it the fear in your gut was justified.

    If it was, no biggie, you'll snap out of it soon.

  38. I need opinions on women with unspeakably high standards in men. I want to show this girly what the internet thinks. Please help me help her see the light, or if I am in the wrong please help me see the light because this girl is out of her mind... at least in mine.
