| I just "googled" "mixing dreams with reality" and this came up. I was wondering if anyone else has this issue and it seems like they do. With more stress in my life lately, I seem to be having more of a problem deciphering which happened and which was dreamed. Seems that the more memory issues I hav... |

| I've been married for going on 11 years. I have Aspergers, my husband does not. He does NOT understand me at all, and it just seems all we ever do, lately, is argue. He has no interest of even trying to understand me. Marriage is difficult. |
