Yesterday afternoon, I laid down for a nap like I always do when the girls laid down. This time, however, a monsoon storm moved in while I slept and has thundering/lightening like crazy while I napped. This created really unsettling, bad dreams. I dreamed about being in the prison again, having no electricity, prisoners escaping, having L with me and trying to protect her, trying to escape myself, etc. It was awful. Even when I woke up, I couldn't shake that horrible feeling. The husband was upstairs at that point, so I asked him to turn on the lights so I'd wake up fully and maybe shake it. Didn't help, but it eventually subsided over the course of the afternoon. Yuck.
What do you do to help yourself after a bad dream?
