Well so last night I had again the same confounding and disturbing dream. The same dream kept coming back to me repeatedly after 1-2 month.
Although it is a recurring dream but every time the pattern is little bit different. It varies every time. :D
The dreams subject is always about failure but may be the causes are different.
Well the dream is that I have an important exam to appear. But every time I just see I am failing in the exam badly.:(
Last day in my dream I just managed to secure a mere 18 out of 100. ( where the passing grade is 40).
Sometimes I experience like I am an HS candidate , have a lot of syllabi to complete , but I have not yet managed to learn the 1/20th.
Sometimes I see myself as a college student and sometimes even as a 10th candidate.
Well the patterns are :-
1. I open the question paper. I read the first question and started freaking out as have never heard anything related to the question too.
2. I went to the exam centre and found out that I was in the wrong test centre much after when I did not have time to go back to the right centre .
3. I missed the exam for noting down the wrong routine.
4. Prepared for another paper instead of the correct one.
5. I had a dream where I arrived late for an exam, and could not find the location of the exam room . I was lost in the large college building.
6. And the most common pattern , where I had nothing to answer , I found myself not at all prepared for the exam and was wandering in the dream about what the hell was I doing for the 6 months instead of studying and preparing for the exam ?
So wandering about why so many years after sitting exams at college or school, do I dream about having to sit for one?
May be these stressors, the exam room, the ticking clock, the exam papers…..all these memories lie asleep in our subconscious mind somewhere flooding back to us in a sea of anxiety.
May be we are just not aware of it consciously but in our subconscious mind it is there yet.
Wandering do any other people face this kind of experience ?

Wow...you remembered that in your dream you got 18 out of 100! Well, I guess many people who were very studious in their student lives dream these kind of nightmarish dreams...I sometimes do :-)
ReplyDeleteHey I was not studious.Rather I knew those who are low in self esteem or poor in studies only dream so :P
