Sometimes, when we go through severe trauma, such as sexual abuse, rape, our brain just shuts down the memories. That happens way more often than you can imagine.. Then, later on in life, an event, even when we don´t identify which get us to feeling some of the feelings back and memories come back.
If you have such specific dreams, that take place at your dad´s house and specific feelings concerning your dad, I´d say that chances are you might have been molested..
I was molested as a kid, you know?? Anfd there are things, I just forgot about for a long time, and later on, I just remember...
Is there anyone you can talk to about it? About your feelings?? Do you think you coudl share it with your mom??
Sexual abuse is such a big deal, you know? it´s not an small thing and it´s so important to have someone we can talk to...
Honey, no matter what you do, don´t ignore those feelings.. Maybe you could go to a therapist and try to find out.. Even if you don´t remember it, your brain does and later on it can cause problems to you...
Please, know, that if you ever need to talk, or just someone to listen to you, you can talk to me or email me any time, ok???
I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers...

sometimes we have false memories. I wonder if we dream that something happened and the dream seems so real that we think it is real. my son tells me that i slapped him once and i feel like that is proably a false memory because i don't remember and that just isn't my personality--i don't have a temper.With all that said I believe that what you are remembering may have happened. You may never know for sure and you can't falsely accuse someone.without accusing you mighy want to tell someone that you trust. i grew up in an abusive home. some of what happened i do remember. but when i became an adult and had left my parents home i started having something like a video playing at different times in my brain. it was causing me me to panic

I can't tell you with any certainty whether or not you were molested.
I can tell you that finding a therapist to talk to is important at this stage. You can see your school counselor or a minister, if you have one, at first. Perhaps they can suggest a psychologist. Your regular doctor may be able to suggest one, as well.
If you dream about it, have a journal by your bed so that you can write down what you remember from your dream as soon as you wake up. This may help a therapist learn how to help you better.

Its possible that its your subcontious let you know about somthing thats happening in your life or a subpressed memory. You should talk to a pchycologist, its not a bad thing and it helps you understand whats happening and how to react to it!

Maybe its the separation of your father thats triggering this, i think that if you dont recall any fear and harm taken from your father of being rape/molested, it might all just be a thought. But hey, im no psychiatrist, but i still advise you to see one! Hope that helps! and best wishes!

A counselor will soon be able to help you find out if what you are experiencing is real or a dream. It's important to find out, so see a counselor.
