Disgusting dream making me act cold towards family member.?
I had a dream about a week ago which really scared me. The dream was that I was being sexually abused by my father. Now, I love my dad, he's really nice and would do no such thing, but the dream has really affected me and I'm acting really cold towards him. I cringe when he says 'love you' and find it really hard to say it back, and everything he does and says is starting to really annoy me.
What can I do? I can't exactly tell him about the dream. Help!
I don't think I can write a letter because I still live at home (I'm only 16).

This is very difficult for me to answer but I'm going to because I hope it really helps you. If your father has never ever acted inappropriate to you then this was just a really nasty dream. You probably just got this in your subconscious from something you have read or seen on the TV. Don't let a stupid dream rob you of a normal loving fatherly/daughterly relationship. My father really did try to do something to me sexually and it has broken my heart and caused a lot of heartache in my whole family especially as my mother knows and has decided to stay with my father. So please, please, put this dream behind you and be thankful you have a nice, normal loving father. I wish I did.

Try to understand that dreams do not always make sense and may have nothing to do with actual events in the past or future. When we are under more stress or pressure than usual, or if we had recently read something or watched something on TV which was disturbing, it can come out in our dreams.
You don't have to tell your dad about the dream. Just tell yourself that that it was just a dream and do your best to try to forget about it. When thoughts of it come back to you, just brush it off and replace those thoughts with something positive. Eventually you will think about it less and less.
Take care and best to you,

You should talk to him about it or you can write him a letter about how you feel and let him come to you. When he do then you two can talk about it.
You can write the letter leave it somewhere where he will get it while you are out and not around. The point is to give him the letter so you don't have to go to him face to face and bring it up, when he read it he will come to you first and then you can tell him how you feel. That's what I did I was 16 also I did something real bad and I was so scared to tell my mother I kept it in for years but I wrote her the letter and left it in her room before I went to school and when I got home she came to me and we talked about it.
