Last night I dreamt I was in a black void. I couldn't see anything except for four white masks staring at me. Suddenly, they started screaming. It went on for some time until I finally woke up. Oddly enough, I could still hear their screams even with my eyes already wide open. The screaming wouldn't stop until I fell asleep again. It was an interesting experience, though I still have no idea what caused the entire thing.

Only nightmare's related to my real life. Multiple and they were all related to people ghosting me, ignoring me or publicly blaming me for something I didn't do. I always woke up all sweaty, as in my dreams I tried everything to befriend people.

I tried to convince them, be happy and friendly but at the end they all left me alone or made me feel like a piece of shit. People were running away from me and me chasing them made no difference. Explaining myself for something I didn't even do, didn't interest anyone. Also saying nice things was twisted around to make me feel bad.

Often I spend the rest of the dream trying to figure out what I did wrong. Often I saw myself as young child, crying, with no parents I could go to and ask for help. Often the dream turned all narrow, like walls left and right, so I couldn't simply take a different route or escape.

They were pretty scary, because I'm used to have, like half of my dreams be, lucid dreams. At least those I remember, always give me some sort of control. Often when I want to avoid a situation in them and I try really hard, I can escape by flight or something else. But those... No escape. Made me skip work for two days.
