I dreamt of my husband’s mother. She was in the shower with another woman (her friend I think in real life). She came out wrapped in a towel waiting for her friend/trying to help her get out of the shower. I never got to see the friend, but knew it was her. My mother in law kept standing there like she did not see me. She didn’t even acknowledge I was there (I was using the toilet in the dream) and just remember staying quiet not knowing what to do. I was also a younger version of myself in the dream (12/13?) and she was extremely thin, but looked healthy. I notice a extra nipple on her right hip area and she kept trying to hide it and I kept seeing her skin (shoulder/arm/leg) all side profile though. What could this mean? I don’t talk to her and she does not like me at all.

I had a dream that I was running from dead people like from resident evil, and I found a place to hide. The dead people found me and they bit a chunk out of my arms and face. I was able to bite them back the same way they bit me. The bites were so gross and they felt so real that I was able to feel the blood running down my face and arms and then I woke up. It was a very scary nightmare to have.
My dream started off normally. I was with my family at my grandmas house, having dinner late at night. I remember going out of the house and going for a walk to my own house. When i arrived, i went to my room to retrieve my knife that was on my desk. Supposedly in my dream, i was struggling with money (not on real life though. im not poor lol) and had been thinking about selling my body parts. I started to cut my left forearm off like if i’ve done it before because i wasn’t phased on what i was doing to myself. My hand didn’t go anywhere. It was like it was attached to nothing, still in the same place as if i still had my forearm. I started to go on snapchat to sell my body parts like if i was a plug or something. Someone want my forearm, another wanted my whole right arm, and another wanted my whole torso. Their wish was my command. I started to cut each body part out, seeing everything in third-person. In real life, my knife is extremely sharp, so it portrayed the same in my dream. It cut through my body like if it was butter. I didn’t feel any pain through the whole process. The body parts were bagged up and ready to be delivered. I started to walk to their houses, still holding the bags of my body parts like if i had a complete body. I stopped mid-way to their houses and thought of what i was doing. That is when i woke up. I realized it was a dream and felt relief. It was exactly 4:00am and it was hard going back to sleep. I don’t know if it was a dream or nightmare because i didn’t really feel scared. Just very confused on why that dream happened.
I had a dream that I was running from zombie from resident evil. I found somewhere to go hide but they found me. They then took a big bite out of my head and my arms. I bit them back the way they bit me. I could feel the blood and the pulse of my blood running down my face and arms. It feels like it was real. I then woke up from the scary dream and couldn’t get back to sleep.
