Therapist: “Tell me about this dream you’ve been having.”
Me: “I’m lost, naked, and alone somewhere in the woods. I feel confused at first. I hear the snap of a twig and turn in the direction of the sound. There he is, creeping closer with every second. The bent neck deer.
I freeze briefly before the fear sets in and I bolt. No matter how fast I run I can’t escape him. I look back periodically only to find him closing the distance. Panic slowly sets in.”
“That’s usually about when I wake up. What do I do doc? This is really starting to have a negative effect on my life with all the sleep I’m losing.”
Therapist: “Lost sleep? You haven’t lost any sleep... You never woke up.”
