Is it normal dreams make me depressed in the morning?

Sometimes it doesn't even necessarily seem like a very sad dream. Last night, I had a dream that I was at college trying to get ready to go out while someone was telling me that college was extremely fun. But when I woke up and thought about it, I realized this dream was a flashback of being depressed and lonely my freshman year of college and now I'm really sad from it and feel like it'll make me this sad all day. IIN?

    I know how you feel. I've had dreams before that really had an effect on me and the rest of my day. But just remember that its your subconscious speaking. Maybe really, deep down inside, it does bother you that you were depressed and lonely your freshman year.

    College really isn't so bad. You should start fresh, and not think of how difficult your freshman year might've been. Start over. I kinda had to force myself to talk to random people, and before I knew it, I was actually talking more than I had ever talked before! And I made tons of friends!

    And try not to let what you dream in your sleep run your waking life. Remember they're just dreams, and if something in your dreams are bothering you, it really is bothering you inside. You could always talk to somebody if you really want to. I'm sure its nothing too serious to worry about, though. Good luck!

    Happens to me too. I think it's because sometimes when you dream it's like it's so real. And when you have sad dreams it just makes it seem like it happened in real life and that makes you sad all day.
