How do you get emotions from your dreams out of your head?

Question

I had this dream last night where my brother suddenly died. I fight with him a lot but I love him a lot. I woke up very sick of saddness! How do I get this horrible feeling out of my head? It is really bothering and annoying me.

Answer 1

Not much you can do. Dreams are tough to explain. I've had some of the craziest dreams, some happy, some sad, some just plain weird. If you concentrate on a different thought long enough, there's good chances you may have a dream relating to it though, that's all I can say. If you have recurring nightmares, talk to your parents about it or something, because a psychologist can help

Answer 2

Sometimes I have dreams like that, the kind that don't necessarily go away after waking up; and you have to remind yourself it was just a dream. Though if I were you I would give my brother a call just to hear his voice that way it will validate that it was really only a dream. I'd probably tell him about the dream as well, just to be safe.

Answer 3

first of all, death in a dream does not necesarily represent a desire to kill someone or a death wish, it can also represent a new start it can also means you feel you are lacking something that your brother has. i think maybe you should spend some time with your brother, go to the mall, beach, park, lake, play video games, or just hang around the house together, it should get you mind off things.

Answer 4

I have the same problem and sometimes I will get mad @ my bf in my dream and wake up and am still mad at him for no reason. Just tell your brother, I know we fight a lot but I just want you 2 know that i love you. I think it will put you at ease.

Answer 5

Go talk to your brother (not about the dream, of course). Spending some time with him will show you he's alive and well and allow these unsettling feelings to dissipate.

Answer 6

Sadly you can't. It will pass, after all its only a dream.
