This is just creepy to me. I've always had really crazy dreams, but often I'll have dreams where I actually feel like I've done the things in the dreams when I wake up. The dreams feel so real. For an example, last night I had a dream that my therapist was transferring to a different office. It felt like I was actually living that. Dream-me was so freaking scared and I had almost the same intensity of fear as I would in real life if this was to happen. Sometimes I wake up and feel like I haven't slept. 

I've also had dreams where things are really symbolic to what I'm actually dealing with at the time. When I'm awake I already "personify" my issues into different characters or avatars (i.e. I envision my BPD infecting parts of my personality and creating different "evil" versions of myself, and I imagine these alters to have different characteristics) so I don't know if that is where this comes from. It's not quite the same, but maybe my creativity works when I'm asleep. I'll have dreams where I end up fighting myself wearing a mask, dealing with monsters, etc. All of this is just weird as hell.
