Answer :

answer:Oh yes. I think it’s your brains way of sorting out things we need to address. Perhaps we’re missing our mum. Or we’re cross about something. Or feeling hurt. It can leave you feeling quite bereft. Often I can think back and find something that might have triggered the dream. Sometimes, there’s no clear indicator. I hope you feel better now. I sometimes have dreams that leave me cranky too. Usually with my poor husband! I don’t make him pay for things he does in my dreams :-)
