Dreams are strange but lately some of them have been very strange to me and made me become alarmed and caused fear of god and my fate. In my dreams I also sometimes feel very moral about some decisions in my life but not when I’m awake. I feel very light about everything for example about god existing or not even though I do kinda believe but I also think that it’s unimportant. What’s important is that we’re all one body and everything you do effects it. For example I’m currently living on societys expense but don’t feel bad about that. When I was in my transition period I was very serious about everything and extremely moral and thought I always knew right from wrong.
When I wake up from those dreams it makes me think about the good or bad outcomes of my actions or if I’m doing the right or wrong and I come to a conclusion that I don’t have a clue. This causes me a little worries and fears which I don’t usually have anymore.
This being a philosophy board, i only feel qualified to ask: Have you read much ethics? Classical or otherwise? Maybe you could get more feelings of how to act in the waking world if you strengthen yourself in that area.
Non-philosophically, I recommend you say a prayer before going to sleep.
I don’t have the same view anymore of some things I thought was right or wrong right after my awakening. For example then I felt strongly that it was wrong to enjoy any bodily senses and that you must be self-sufficient.
It sounds like the voices of society are echoing in your head at night- and when you wake your more rational self reminds you that you know better. This all caused by they ever nagging anxiety- ‘might I be wrong? And they be right?’
Well I have a hint for you. You probably are wrong, but they definately aren’t right. And its better in genral to live life how you think best, and not be anyone elses rules.
Believe me the situation where its your voice in the dream is much much worse.
Just to clarify that with awakening I don’t mean waking up from sleep and with transition period I mean the period I had right after my awakening till the time I cured from psychosis.
