I won’t say this scenerio is recurring but elements of it are. Also sorry for typos I’m hardly awake and using my phone.

I was in a classroom, whatever was going on had just wrapped up and everyone in the classroom was heading out. It seemed be somthing less formal then a class session, and it has run very late. It’s around midnight. I have work the next day so this is a problem.

Leaving the school is odd, the structure is like a huge maze with lots of stairways in odd places. I’ve dreamed of this school a few times. I managed to eventually get out and I can see a bus stop. However. I’ve forgotten my wallet back in the classroom somehow. So I go all the way back and see it on a table open and full of cash. Another guy is also looking at it. It’s a tense situation. I explain it’s my wallet and he just hands it to me cash and all. Again I am outside I see a bus comming towards the stop and move to it. However I can feel the cold night ashfault under my feet. It seems I’ve also forgotten my shoes back in the classroom.

I wake up at this point stressed out if my mind at my own stupidity at 5am. The recurrence is that I need to go somewhere but I keep forgetting stuff and end up increasing late.

I am definitely the sort of person who leaves their home 2 or 4 times because I’ve left my wallets, glasses, ext. But I always plan accordingly as I know better. I also found it weird my wallet was full of money and this didn’t cause a positive reaction. I never carry cash and have financial issues

This one also had a small social conflict as a result of my negligence. In this case the guy giving me my wallet and me worried they wouldn’t. This situations are common in other stress dreams I’ve had. Given those other dreams I’m shocked that this didn’t go worse.

Anyone else get these stress dreams? Any tips for dealing with them.

    The irony is the thing I know I am putting off is getting my capm certificate (associate project management). Though im also got a lot going of works and personal stuff going on. I’ve been working insane overtime and have to move in a few weeks. I just got out of a long term (somewhat abusive) relationship. I like keeping busy to keep my mind off other stuff. but damn well know that dreams like this are a sign I am burning myself out.
