I have been feeling melancholic all day because I dreamt I had found this wonderful friendship group and in that weird way dreams can tap directly into your emotions, that friendship was at once deep and genuine and earned. I was telling these friends how much they meant to me in a really vulnerable moment when I was woken abruptly… it was so jarring I wanted to cry as if i’d lost each one of those ‘imaginary’ people. So I have been mourning a dream all day and feel completely silly about it but there it is. 😞 Anyone else experienced something like this?

I’ve experienced loss of a close friend or family in a dream and even though it wasn’t real I was sad the entire day after. It’s scary how lucid dreams are sometimes.

@poptrash yes I’ve had this, and the opposite where passed family are alive again. Either way it hurts in a very real way doesn’t it.
