That does sound like something a shrink would come up with, explanation wise. Trauma making your brain do...whatever. But in my case? The horrible things I've seen and done... there's nothing IN my real life to account for my brain doing it. I mean, thank the higher powers for that, but it doesn't make a correlation happen.
I've done some pretty awful things myself in my dreams. I know why, and I know that they were needed but... Even so, yeah. It's not easy to face that I'm...one of my friends in the dreams said it best, "capable of being terrible." It's hard to accept.
