Evil maid affecting how I wake up
TW: neglect & medical issues
Personal context: I’m epileptic & anytime there’s bad weather it messes with my head & I get crazy vivid nightmares or I’ll get them the day or night before I have a seizure. I’m also currently dealing with some health issues & for whatever reason my mom has already decided that I have cancer & im dying so she’s telling everyone they need to spend time w me before I die (I’ve been referred to a hematologist but that’s it so far) my moms just weird & loves the attention it gets her while treating me like shit
The dream: I was living back with my grandparents and my mom had invited family over for a “farewell” dinner & she was telling everyone how I have cancer & im dying & the whole family was wearing black & was telling me their goodbyes so I got upset and went to my room because I didn’t want to hear that. I slam the door on everyone and tell them to leave me alone im not dying. They finally stop & I can hear my mom telling everyone im in denial & she already picked out my grave. As I back away from the door I turn around & im in an entirely new house. I was in a salmon pink room dining room with a cream colored table with chairs & lace doilies as placemats. It was evening outside because I could see the sun setting & it was beautiful. A lady comes and tells me that I’ll be house sitting and that the maid will arrive shortly to help me as well as keeping me company. She tells me the maid is a little odd but she’s an old lady so to not mind her. As she’s telling me this I get an eerie feeling. I look past the lady past the hallway into the living room and see pistachio colored couches and over them I can see a big front door with sheer curtains covering the glass and i can see a big silhouette standing there. She tells me it’s the maid & not to worry about it and continues telling me what I need to do but the eerie feeling would not go away. I look over again and I see the maid leaning on the couch with her back towards me but this time I’m really scared. The lady leaves and tells me not to worry because the maid is coming to introduce herself to me. I’m sitting on the dining room chair eating a rice cake when I hear heavy footsteps, I turn to look and it’s the maid. She is about 6 ft tall, heavy set, tiny head, no nose, has no hair but her head is disfigured, she doesn’t talk & she’s holding a giant orange and white cat. I start freaking out but I can’t move. She throws the cat and starts grabbing my arms trying to drag me out of my seat. I’m finally able to get off the chair but she sees I left a mess and she’s trying to grab my crumbs & water bottle then rips my sock off while still trying to grab me. Something tells me to not let her grab anything I touched so I begin fighting with her for the crumbs and my water bottle then she grabs my arm and starts dragging me out of the kitchen. She pulls my hair with the other arm and I’m trying to fight out of her grip. I begin pulling at her arms with one hand and trying to pry her hands open with the other. Then I wake up. Curled in a ball on my bed gripping my arm so hard I wake up with marks & a sore scalp where I feel like my hair was being pulled.
Not sure if it was a seizure I had in my sleep or just a really bad nightmare
