How often do you still dream about being a JW?
I occasionally stii have dreams about being a JW.
They often involve meetings or assemblies. Usually the assemblies dreams are accompanied by reasonably pleasant memories/feelings.
Also I often dream about the young sister that I was crazy about when I was 17.
Does any other ex-Borger here still have dreams of the Borg days?

i actually have dreams sometimes of being out preaching, ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww nightmare i should say
I've been out for almost 7 years and I haven't had any dreams in years about the borg days.
I guess I'm over it.
I do dream about people I knew when I was in the borg....not that often but sometimes. They are not kinky dreams or anything weird...just ordinary dreams. Although...I do have some rather bizzare dreams. I know one thing is for sure...I'm always drop dead gorgeous in my dreams....and then I wake up!!

This is strange but,
I always dream about my dead J.W. grandparents.
Does that count?
I have dreams about JWs or rather nightmares. Sometimes I dream I am being confronted by elders I knew years ago when I lived in England (I had less contact with JWs in the USA and I have been out for 5 years).
They question me on celebrating Christmas and attending church services. The thing is my parents know this and I guess so do many of the JWs I used to know so what am I hiding? The one elder who is always in my dreams is someone I have known ever since I can remember. I have always liked him; perhaps subconsciously I think I have let him down.
My other recurring dream I have is being inappropriately dressed or naked in public. (I always sleep naked) I used to have this dream the nights before I gave a public talk. In those dreams I would invariably find my myself giving my talk in just my briefs. I had that dream a week before my wedding in a slightly different context and again recently just before a presentation I had to give to the CEO.
I shared my recurring dream problems with a friend at work and she delighted in telling everyone else to much amusement. Now everyone knows my fear but it still doesn't help me.

I have this immensely vivid dream where I'm standing in a white room void of any corners, windows or air. Thousands of people are yelling crazy talk about all different things and attacking each other. I'm trying to walk around and converse with people...their only response? an occasional grimace. I wake up in a cold sweat forcing my strangled vocal cords to shout out the name of Jehovah for protection. Just when I think the last drop of life's energy has been sucked outta me, I'm snapped out of my trance by my husband motioning me to turn off JW.com, it's time for bed.
Goodnight Smoldering Wick and sweet dreams!

Yeh I still dream about them.
Post tramatic stress I guess.
