            <H4 align="center">Dreams 
              and Depression</H4>
            <P class="body">When unfulfilled 
              emotional arousal remains in the brain's limbic system at sleep 
              onset, the brain creates scenarios that allow those loops to complete.We 
              call them dreams. </p> <P class="body">The dream acts 
              out, in metaphor, a situation that will allow the emotional loop 
              to be completed and therefore 'flushed' from the brain. </p> <P class="body">In other words, 
              an imaginary experience whose pattern resembles the 'real 
              life' one closely enough to create the same emotional reaction.</p> <P class="body">For example, 
              during the day you worry about what someone has said to you, thinking 
              that they were perhaps criticising or making fun of you. That night 
              you have an anxiety dream where someone stabs at you with daggers 
              and you try to run away. The dream allows your system to complete 
              the loop started by the emotional arousal.</P></TD></tr></table></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.clinical-depression.co.uk/Understanding_Depression/understanding.htm"><div align="center"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.clinical-depression.co.uk/img/F8F0FAED-0AF7-4CEC-A028-29603E1C9B81" alt="Depression cycle complex" /></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A01C6BB9-0685-4017-9FCD-20DF0469488E/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
