First dream of my son after his passing in October

Last night I dreamt that most horrible dream about my son.  Today has been a full day of anxiety, sadness and guilt.  My dream was so awful.  I feel like a terrible mother for the dream I had.  In a nutshell, my son was being mean to me in my dream, and I grabbed him by the face and yelled at him saying " You're dead - why are you being so mean to me?" I also grabbed him by the face saying those words.  I woke up feeling so terrible.  Is this type of dream normal?  Am I losing my mind?  I do feel like I'm losing my mind!

 

FYI my son's death was unexpected................. :(

I'm so sorry for your loss. I suspect such dreams are more common than we realize. It's happened to me with my loss. It doesn't make any sense, but then I never felt dreams were necessarily supposed to make sense or had some "hidden meaning"....they're just dreams, not reality.

Yes those types of dreams can be normal but hard to shake off when you wake up.  It's not real so reassure yourself of that.
