    About once every 2-3 months, I dream that I'm in the building of a former employer (I left more than 12 years ago). In the dream, I'm lost - unable to find where I'm supposed to be and the people I'm supposed to be with - and unprepared for something that I have to do, like a presentation. The details are different each time - different buildings, different people - but the theme is the same - lost and unprepared.

    Is my brain telling me that I was right to get out?

    Kind of the same dream as the sometimes recurring one where I find myself at the desk in my Leaving Cert Maths or Irish exam wearing no trousers...and with zero clue about Irish or Maths.

    Even though I did well in the exams I presume the insane stress levels of that particular time left an indelible imprint on my brain - probably the amygdala region - which spurs a dream here and there using those archetypal symbols to let me know when my stress levels rise too high.
