Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I don't know if this is a depression topic, but it could potentially be. Anyone else here empathic or have precognitive abilities? I know-weird.
My mom is 73 or 74. We haven't really spoken or visited since Christmas due to my brother's crazy behavior at the house. I can't go over there without him creating a scene, so my counselor said, "Stop going over there." Brilliant advice, I know, right? I just couldn't figure it out for myself.
Anyway, last night I was dreaming that she came to me, we were riding on a boat, she tried to talk to me, I jumped in the river and swam to the end, but she caught up with me. She told me clearly and point blank. "It's my time, I will be passing away. Please pick up a couple of the bills, go over to the house and see Dad two times a week and help getting stuff done. I'm giving it up to the man upstairs." She pointed upward.
I was alarmed as this has happened to me before with dreams in the past. I thought about it, went back to bed, as I've been sick, and it happened again.
My best friends and my relatives were in my living room, with my brother, and I was introducing everyone. My grandmother, who has passed, was there. I was conducting the post-wake. I turned to my mother, who said, "I tried to talk to grandma to see if I could buy a couple of years."
I told her 'please don't d that, it's not wise, you can't play with divine timing. It's OK if you want to go. I'm really scared and I don't want to be without you, but I can't stop you" I said. So I was holding her and then she just died right there in my arms.
I am really sad because I know that these things really do happen. I've had these dreams in the past when something really significant was about to happen. It could be a reflection of my own fears, but...maybe not.

Phone mum and meet her out in town somewhere. Buy her an icecream. You don't have to go to that house to see her.
It may be your subconscious mind trying to get you to deal with an issue you do not want to.
It may be a warning from above (or from your future self???) about events that are soon to come.
I say look into your heart and see if you are ignoring things you should be dealing with.
But I like Bridgie's suggestion. Find a way to visit with your mom, and just with your mom. Do not let your brother take time away from the two of you.
I do understand the interpretation about the Dr's. wife. When my endometriosis got really bad and I needed one of my ovaries removed, I would frequently dream of death and wakes-other people's. These other people lived but I was quite sick at the time.
And yes it could also be about Mom too. Mother's day is around the corner, and she is at that age where it's likely. Oddly, I called her today and she insisted that I called twice yesterday, that my number is on her caller id call log. Yet, I did not call her yesterday and there is nothing on my call log dialing out. Unless she's confused about the number it is indeed quite strange.
I certainly hope this isn't the case with mom, but we have had the death of our relationship, that is for certain.
