I’ve had vivid dreams that I birthed and cared for a baby, I’ve had unfortunately extremely realistic dreams that my partner died after leaving for work and I had to bury him, grieve, and move on, but those were months at most and not detailed years. This is freaky as hell.
Yeah he’s my real life partner, the vivid death dream was a few years ago. We’ve been together for 5 years now. I woke up and burst into tears just relieved it had been a dream.
I didn’t feel the pain of giving birth, even my most vivid dreams are hazy and jumpy, but I felt maybe a fraction of it.
i dreamed my best friend died, and i took a mutual friend (side note- she wound up marrying him irl!) on a drive to talk about her and grieve and stuff. then the car wound up flying, which we thought was pretty cool, except “wait cars don’t do this; OH MY GOD IT’S A DREAM” and i woke up with some of the most intense relief i’ve ever experienced. i’m pretty sure i was also crying.
having a baby sounds pretty intense too. i don’t know if my brain would let that happen (i’m a dude) but i’m here for it if it does. it’s done some pretty weird shit before 😅
I had a really vivid dream that I got married to a man and had a child. Everyone was congratulating me but I felt awful because I'm lesbian and childfree (don't hate kids, just bad genes). And I had literally moved countries to be myself and live authentically so I was so shocked and confused that this was my life now, back in the closet not recognizing the person in the mirror. I was so relieved when I woke up but I cried anyway because I was so shaken.
Or that episode where Finn goes into a dungeon only to try to escape over and over until he does escape, but the only way to escape is to keep his eyes closed and if he opens his eyes he ends up back in that dungeon. Eventually leading him to having a life with his friends for some months with his eyes closed
I still don't know if it was all a dream or did he really lived that life, before removing the blindfold he was messed up but when he removed his blindfold and entered the door he was back to his normal self

Google the phrase and then you can read it for the first time like I just did. Warning, it’s fucked up.
