In real life, I just had an argument with my mother. I think this influenced the dream. Dream: So I came home from Knoxville with my mom and there was a dead roach on the floor. Mom went into her room and I stayed out in the living room. At the corpse of the roach stood another roach. It was twice the size of the first one and easily the biggest one I’d ever seen. It wanted revenge for its dead friend so it went after me. I decided it was too fast to fight and I didn’t want it crawling all over me so I ran away. I tried to scream but I couldn’t. This made me slightly lucid but I kept acting like the nightmare was real. I eventually forgot I was dreaming. Somehow it was crawling on me or maybe I lost it. I don’t remember. I encountered a bunch of others either before or after. I couldn’t scream or move as they crawled on me. In the dream, I felt annoyed that I couldn’t scream. Was I sleep paralyzed? I wondered. I went to my room and it kept changing furniture each time I went in there. At one point there was a dining room in it and my bed was in the center surrounded by bookshelves. I think my mom had decided to renovate it for some reason. At the foot of my bed, which had turned into some four poster trampoline or something, thee were a bunch of roaches. Dead, I think. I didn’t care. I was used to them. I jumped on my bed and I was happy because I was internet famous. I was on twitter, which I don’t even use in real life. Suddenly a big roach crawled out from the entrance of my bed which was like one of those trampoline covers but it was opaque. And it was made from an old blanket. The roach wasn’t a giant. It was a large normal sized roach. There was also a tan roach that was really small. Maybe it was a cricket. It was on my arm and I brushed it off or killed it I don’t remember. I thought the other roach was on my arm and I couldn’t see it so I went to my moms room to get her to get it off. I stayed calm because I knew I couldn’t scream in a dream. I asked her to get it off before remembering that it was crawling around my bed. I went back to kill it but I woke up. Now I’m paranoid bugs are in here.
