More about that therapy that focused on your dreams, please?

It seems that most of the dreams I have sound like nightmares to other people.

Most of the time they don't bother me -- in the moment or after-the-fact -- I just tell people I have "horror-movie dreams."

But sometimes they do. A few weeks ago I had a dream about a haunted house I was going to. I never got there, but there were multiple interactions in the journey to the haunted house. They all ended up in killings. "Lots of murder in that dream," I told one or two people when I talked to them about it. Lots of murder.

That one has stuck with me. It stuck with me that week and I still consider it (clearly) at least once or twice a week now. I wouldn't like another dream like that one anytime soon if I can help it.
