Is it normal that i've been shaken up by a dream i had?
I had this disturbing zombie dream that I had a few days ago. I can't stop thinking about it.
I don't remember how the dream started but I do recall that I was holding my 8 year old sister in my arms. Her leg was broken from something that happened earlier. Anyways, I was trying to run away from the zombies on this grass field with my sister being extra weight on me along with my other equipment. I could have took off those stuff, but instead I dropped her to save my own skin.
She tried limping after me, begging for help but none came. I kept running while looking back as they started feasting on her. My sister's crying and the zombie moans felt so real that I woke up in tears and sweat. I was literally in man tears (not sobbing) from this. The remorse kept me up the whole night. I was too scared to sleep. I didn't want to feel that psychological pain again.
I still feel terrible for doing it even though it was a dream. Is this normal?
