Right before falling asleep last night I had this strong feeling that I was gonna have some sorta dream that I just didn't want to have. I'm so tired! Drained! I've been dreaming like crazy! I said to myself "No, not tonight. I just want a good nights sleep tonight." But then something nudged me ... coerced me even. And I said "Okay, if it necessary." And then I drifted off and fell asleep. In my dream I was lying on the reclining chair with my son. I knew I was dreaming but it was dark so I wanted to turn the lights on. I got up from the recliner, leaving my son lying there. I went to turn on the light. But I couldn't. I wasn't that the light wouldn't turn on. It was that I was trying to push the light switch upwards and there was a force that was keeping me from doing. A light did come on, as if trying to show me something. It was like a warehouse light. And the door to my apartment wasn't there. Instead of the door it was a large caged elevator like on in a warehouse. Then there was a bright flash of blue and red and the lights went out. I turned to my fiance who was sleeping on the couch and shook him to wake him up. Then I proceeded to the kitchen to see if I could turn that light on, but when I got there, it wasn't my kitchen. I was in someone else's and they couldn't see me but I could see them. They were about to be preparing a meal of some sorts it seemed to me and THEN is when it hit me. I had that sense of knowing. I knew there was a gas leak in the building and everyone had to get as soon as possible. That's why the force wouldn't let me turn the lights on. That's why! ... So I picked up my jacket and shoes hastily and got my son in his jacket and my fiance and we got into the elevator. Couldn't use that either. So we took the stairs on the other side of the elevator. As we walked outside I see the building. This building was one I've seen before in a previous dream. I know it. I told my fiance "I have to find a way to warn the other people." So we walked around to the front of the building ... as we walked up to the front, I saw that there was already a bunch of people sitting outside with the fire department. I walked up to see what was going on. It seemed that everyone had already been evacuated "but, why wasn't my family?" Then I heard someone from the fire department say that everything was okay and they were going to start letting people back in. I knew that this was a bad idea! I just knew that the problem wasn't fixed. But there was nothing that I could do to change their minds. As the people started moving back into the apartment building I felt a deep pit in my stomach. I knew I wasn't going back in there. I just wished there was some sort of way I could help these other people! ... And then I woke up. (for real) lol ... When I woke up I had the feeling of terror in me. I remembered it was a dream and managed to turn the lights on. This dream was so intense. So real, but I just let it flow. Instead of trying to fight it this time. Now I'm even more tired then I was before I went to sleep. I hope I can sleep well tonight.

I think your not being able to turn on the light means that you are running out of energy.

A kitchen is place where you get nourishment/strength, so being in someone else's kitchen can mean that you need to find strength from a place in yourself that you aren't used to.

The building that you've also seen in another dream represents yourself.

The gas leak - something inside you is building up and could explode.

You and your family not being evacuated when everyone else was - maybe you feel that you are stuck with more problems than other people.

But you feel worried about them going back into the building, so you feel that you know more about what is going on than other people.

Could you be exhausted because you feel that you are taking responsiblity for everything while everyone around you just blindly goes along without thinking?

thank you ...

Yea this all makes sense ... a lot ... For the past six months I haven't been able to eat any solid foods and its been difficult for me to handle this. I feel weak and tired all the time and it's really making me angry because none of the doctors I've been to can seem to find out what is wrong with me! ... It's been going on so long now that some days I'm really depressed about it, and some days just get irritated for no reason (when there really is a reason). Thank you again, you're interpretation made a lot of sense.

I'm so sorry you are having these problems.

I hope the doctors are taking you seriously, even if they haven't been able to find out what the problem is. I hope you have been given lots of tests to find out what is wrong.

I think that once you find out what is wrong so you don't have that worry on your mind your dreams will start to get better.
