    Relax!

    Allow it to come to your mind. Be brave and even sit down and recall it if possible.

    The harder you try to chase it away, the more you'll feel troubled.

    Give it time and it'll go eventually.

    Dreams are often a symbolic representation of our thoughts. So, if you are disturbed about something, it might help in the longer run to see a counsellor.

    take care

    As far as I am aware Sam , we have no control at all over the dreams we have

    For many months now I have been having appalling nightmares yet again.

    As you also know I still have bad dreams about my daughters death. Even 27 years on it still haunts me

    I hope yours ease for you soonest

    There is a theory that dreams are possibly sub conscious thoughts that we avoid facing . Wether this is true or not I have no idea..

    I hope you are able to solve whatever it is Sammy .. good luck
