Why Do I Keep Dreaming About My Secondary School Life by Keeff: 9:51am On Jan 31, 2023
I found myself dreaming of my secondary school days and it's not as a result of me thinking of putting it in mind before sleep because I rarely think about my Secondary school life. This is a school I finished from more than a decade ago and it has become more frequent lately like having those dreams 3 times in a week in the last 2years now and it's starting to eat me up. I'm doing relatively okay that I can feed my family and still have a little to give out to needy friends and family but not as okay I would have loved to be and the second thing is I always blame my secondary school for some of the wrong choices that limited my life progress till now.

I don't know about you, but I used to have same dreams too and I've found out that it meant nothing.

It was scary and I became worried, although I didn't really take it seriously 'cause I am not 'that' superstitious.

My dreams were even about my primary school days and my childhood friends. Many years after I've graduated from secondary school. I don't know when it stopped sha; I just recently realised that I now dream about my university and coursemates and lecturers.

My theory is; it's a time transitory thing. cheesy

You're probably dreaming about that time because it was a huge part of your life that you lived. After a while, you'll "move" on to dreaming about others subsequent events in your life.

I am fine and okay, and doing well. Infact, been having many positive things happening to me in the past year and in this one. So I am good.

I would say you shouldn't worry too much. It's just your brain's 'hyperactivity', as it should be.

It only happened to deep thinkers, intelligent introvert people who always think deep about nature and life generally. These set of people think too much about their past than the present and future.

It is true they may experience stagnation or lack of real progress in life.

The only remedy to that is to live for the present. Stop thinking about yesterday that you cannot recover and the future that have never come. You may plan for the future but don't allow that to deprive you from living the present.

"the second thing is I always blame my secondary school for some of the wrong choices that limited my life progress till now"..... that's a key point, you need to resolve it....what has happened has happened, you need to move away from the blaming.

There are things in your past you wish to correct. Things that happened when you were there. Life is not lived backwards and you can't change the past. Learn to live life forward and forgive yourself of any shortcomings. Above all, leave the past in the past because every day is a clean slate. Write new chapters

I guess you are also an overthinker. Easy

Secondary school represents a pivotal time in the life of almost everyone. Dreaming about secondary schools is the world's most prevalent dream. It is very likely that even Dangote dreams about his college days. So..?

Do not interpret your dreams as having spiritual or retrogressive implications in your life that is not true unless you are absolutely certain. You are who you think you are.

Same here. I have been having these sort of dreams often, ever since. my secondary school , primary and even now university. although i am doing my masters now abroad. if it means stagnancy, i am definitely not stagnant, i have been moving but i don't know if the dreams mean anything, probably it means i should have been far ahead but with my pairs i am doing okay. God knows best

It's not backwardness, it's saying you need to further your education or go back to school. From experience.

This happened to me for 10 long years. Another was I would always dream of having my teeth fall out.

I don't know why this happened. But I will tell you what I did to end it.
First off, show no fear: do not allow yourself to worry about it.
Whenever I woke up from a dream of returning back to school, I would close me eyes for 5 minutes, go back to that school, Imagine that I was saying good bye to my schoolmates, and imagine myself walk into the next phase of my life.

One night I had a dream where we were all taking exams in secondary school: In that dream, I finished the exam, stood up, told the class that I was finished and I knew I had passed the exam and would not be returning again. That was the last time I returned to secondary school in my dream.
About my teeth falling out. Whenever I woke up crying because my teeth had fallen off in the dream, I would look at the mirror and look at my teeth and say "falling teeth means excess cash".

Of course we all know that falling teeth is not excess cash but I made myself believe it by saying it daily until one day the dream changed from falling teeth to excess cash.

Life and death is in the power of the tongue. If you decide that your dream is showing you a limitation you will be limited. If you decide that your dream is an indication of divine repair going on in your youth, it will be as you have decided.

I guess is the brain messing with us. I do have these type of dream. Sometimes I see my old friends and classmates and the ones that never existed.

You're very correct! To this day, I still dream about my last year in the University simply because it was the most challenging period of my academic life. There's this course that I always await the result in that dream. It's so real that I sometimes feel like I haven't graduated yet. On a particular day, I woke up and rushed to my drawer to check for my original certificate and other post-graduate degrees that I acquired if they are still intact. cheesy cheesy cheesy

Things dey happen for this life o!

You say you have some resentments towards some decisions you took while in secondary school.

That information is embedded in your subconscious hence the reliving of it in your dreams.
