Ok so I just had the most disgusting dream I think I've ever had in my life... The point of me posting this is to see if anything like this could happen in real life.. if so I want to do everything possible to prevent it because im still feeling sick from the dream!!

Ok so in my dream I had a pimple, and everytime I would squeeze it to try to pop it, a tiny little white, almost clear worm (sorta looked like a mini maggot :bluecry1:) would come out instead of the usual nasty pimple stuff.. anyways, I thought that was so disgusting, but I sorta wanted to pretend it never happened so I just didnt pop it again.. and then I had another pimple I wanted to pop, and a tiny black worm came out.. then I just got sick, so I went to a dermotologist .. and by this time there were tiny rings around the pimple.. same color as my skin, just rings of skin... and then the Dermotologist lady got so grossed out, she almost threw up when she saw it.. and by this time they were bigger, longer worms, but still really thin.. It was so gross!! so what she was gonna do was numb my face and just cut off that part of my face lol.. And from hearing that I got so sick I wanted to throw up, so I tried but all that came out of my mouth was tons of worms .. little & big ones .. :barf01:

Great, so now im feeling nauseous again just thinking about it...

I just wanted to see if this or anything like this could ever happen..

And I am now washing my face and hands about a thousand times a day..

And just for fun, if you have never heard of anything like this happening, what is the grossest thing that you have experienced?

OK so maybe someone need to consult some phycoanalyst or something and find out what that all means. My daughter came to me the other day (this week) and had had a dream very similar to both your dream. Whats with the pimple and worm? LOL Gotta have somekind of meaning attached to it huh?

Oh man, that is nasty.

Have you ever watched that cable show Untold Stories of the ED (or something like that)? I watched it on occasion during the brief period that we had cable...

Anyway, there was one episode where some woman had a similar experience to your dream. Apparently she was in Costa Rica and some bug planted a bunch of eggs in her scalp, and all these little, white worms were popping out all over the place.

Eeeewwwwww!

The ED doc was pulling them out with tweezers. Most of the episode were dramatizations, but this looked pretty real. I don't know, maybe it was made up.

(I'm sure that'll never happen to you though ;) )

Tell yourself in the dream to not squeeze, instead, try this -

I think that dreams involving the face represent the image that you feel that you are projecting to those around you. The worms out of the mouth may be related to things you tell others and say. As far as the whole worm thing, I know that there is a Loa Loa worm that crawls through the eye, directly under the conjunctiva...(shudder shudder). I also saw some sort of maggot thing as the OP mentioned. Doc was removing maggots from burrows in a woman's breast with tweezers... ick.
