I have recurrent dreams that always have one of the same two themes: forgetting a patient or seeing it's 1600 on a 0700-1900 shift and realizing that I haven't set eyes on my patients at all. Occasionally, my subconscious will throw in an assignment that requires me to walk a long distance between two buildings for my patients, and I always seem to get lost along the way until I'm frantic.
Its always the same, and it seems so real. I will sometimes mercifully wake up and need to shake it off. I don't think this type of dreaming is unique to me, so please share your recurring dreams.
