You don't always remember your dreams

But when you do, share them here.
This morning, upon an index finger pressure point applied to my lower back, a supposed doctor diagnosed me with possible cancer.

Dreamt we came home and our sitting room was full of badgers. Didn't seem strange during the dream, but waking up was a wtf moment.

Two nights ago I had a nightmare that I was still at work and responsible for publishing a report about a new concept that I had no understanding of. Probably the mushrooms in the soup we had for dinner. Woke up sweating.

I dreamt I was asleep at work and trying to wake myself up. Pinching my arm, splashing water on my face. Finally I tried opening my eyes with my fingers. That 'worked', I dreamt I woke up from sleeping at work.

When I was pretty young I had a recurring nightmare that is still so vivid. I was probably 7-9 when this was happening regularly. It was so bad that I would wake up convinced there was a skunk on one side of me and a snake on the other side. If I was to move...well, you know...I would either get sprayed or bitten or both. I would lay as still as I could and try to move my eyes enough to see if they were still there. Sometimes this would go on for an hour.
If Freud were to analyze it, I think he would say that one represented my mother and the other my father.
These days I seldom remember dreams but when I do they are never pleasant ones.

My current mental struggles combined with insomnia have kept me from a full sleep for some time

I almost never remember my dreams. I might occasionally remember the end of a dream when I wake up, but a moment later it's gone. The better sleep I get, the more likely I am to remember that I dreamed at all. Most nights I get enough sleep, but I wake up two or three times and I don't think I get a lot of really deep sleep.
I haven't had a nightmare since I was a young child, and the only one I remember wasn't really a nightmare... more like a jump scare.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
