For over 15 years I had occasionaly recurring dreams about an enormous black hairy legged spider leaping down on me from the ceiling while i slept. I would wake up terrified, unable to breathe, and made my ex check the sheets, bed, blankets and room for a spider before going back to sleep. The dreams were very vivid, one time i was so frightened i jumped out of the way, right on top of him, and refused to move. He had to turn around to get me off and sprained his back!!

Strangely, after a while the dream changed and I had three when the spider was in a cupboard drawer looking at me. In the last one, I looked back at it and closed the drawer. I haven't had one now for nearly a decade, and hope that was the last!!
