  • Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

I never used to dream, not all the time at least, but recently I started dreaming more and more. Pretty much every night now. I hate it. It brings painful memories and unwanted visuals. I wish I didn't dream anymore for the rest of my life.

Can anyone relate? I feel so alone on this since everyone I know can dream

I don't know. From my experience, once I stopped some meds I completely stopped dreaming for years. Funnily enough, very recently I started dreaming and having nightmares again. However, I assure you, I am far from recovering.

How do I return this joy?

I wouldn't say dreaming is inherently part of recovery. However drawing from my own experience, that sounds like trauma processing.
Which either means you need to process some trauma to function. Or, you're finally in what your brain thinks is a safe enough place to process your trauma and heal.
I would consider the second recovery.
