I had a nightmare last night…

I'm pretty sure I had (maybe still have) PTSD from my divorce. Even a year later I wake up from nightmares where I can't get away from her, or we're still married or even worse we ended up getting remarried. Luckily they happen less often, but the trauma is still there in the background.

I had a nightmare once, like Bobby Ewing in the shower, that my divorce never happened and I was still married to the bitch. Thankfully I woke up….it’s just a shame some men never do.

I hate those dreams that are so wicked and almost seem real. But, that sweet, sweet feeling when you wake up and realize it was a dream. Kind of like those dreams where you're falling.

I've had those dreams where I was being attacked or ended up in jail. It doesn't help that I go to sleep often listening to true crime podcasts.

I have a recurring nightmare that I'm still married to the exwife.

Two versions of the nightmare.

Version 1. I'm still with her. We have lost everything. Lost my job, lost my house all due to her pill popping disasters. Me, her and the kids have to move in with her parents. And her dad is standing there, giving me the "dad lecture" about making better choices.

Version 2. My current wife is standing there telling me, "When are you going to get divorced from her?" And although we've been divorced for 5 years, I'm standing there, not knowing why I haven't filed yet.
