Okay, first of all, yes, it's completely normal to have terrifying, screwed up dreams that make no sense and make you feel like a bad person, but you have to remember that it's a dream, and that's all it is. Basically, if you were thinking about something before you went to bed, your brain is going to find a way to twist that little worry into some big horror story.

It sounds like you definitely did have some things on your mind when you had this dream. You watched a movie that scared you? Well, I'd actually be worried if you didn't have a scary dream after that. And it also seems like you have this lingering worry about your abortion and whether or not it was the right choice. I've never had an abortion before, so I really can't understand what you must be going through with that, but my heart goes out to you for having to make such a tough choice--and only at 17! But what I can tell you is that, as with anything, it will get better over time. Getting an abortion is one of those things that can really screw with your head for a while, and you know what? That's good, because it means you're a normal human being with normal emotions. Also, for what it's worth, I think you probably made the right choice. You are 17; you have years and years ahead of you to have a baby--why the hurry to have one now when you're still figuring out who you are?

Lastly, when you have a scary dream like that, you have to remind yourself that nothing in that dream is real. There is no lady chasing you around with a needle, or anything else. But I'm guessing that's not the part that scared you, right? You're scared about your reaction (killing her), because that showed a side of you that you didn't know existed. Well, guess what--that part of you doesn't exist. Maybe you're able to stab someone to death in a delusional dream world, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't do that in real life. We all do crazy things in dreams (especially when our loved ones are in danger in a dream); I've killed off loads of people in my dreams, but it doesn't mean anything, because I'm not a psychopath in real life. In fact, I'm one of the most non-violent people out there.

So, in conclusion, I want you to try to just calm down. You seem like a strong young woman to me, and I'm sure you're going to be fine. You have some emotional scars that are going to take time to heal, and that's okay. Just remember that the stuff that happens in dreams--and more importantly, the stuff YOU do in dreams--has nothing to do with reality. In any case, you're no more messed up than the rest of us! ;-)

It's means that your mind was still active when you were asleep (like it always is) and your hit REM sleep (like you always do) and you rememberd it in the morning in the form of a dream.... ( that's all it is )
