Is it normal to have a bizarre dream like this?
Alright, in this nightmare, I was in my room getting ready to go to sleep, and I felt really uneasy, like I wasn't quite safe. The door to my bedroom was open, so I went to close it. After closing it, I still felt weird, and decided to investigate my room. I start walking toward my bathroom, and this crazy guy jumps out of the closet. From what I remember, he looked kind of like my dad, who I hate and fear. I knew someone else was in the house, like my mom, so I screamed and called for help but no one came to where I was. He asks me, "Where are they?" I regain my calm, and ask, "Who are you looking for?" Then he holds up a large meat carving knife and asks again, "Where are they?!" I scream, and then he runs up and grabs me by the shirt, getting in my face, and saying it again. Then I yell, "I don't know!" and the dream goes black. Then I feel like there's a space in my neck, like I'd been cut up by the guy (which has happened in another dream where I was killed in it).. and then an image of a sandwich on a plate showed up. That's when I woke up in a cold sweat and nervously made my way to the living room, turned on the TV and slept soundly on the couch 'til morning.
So, anyone have any idea what it could mean? I sure don't have much of an idea.
