When I dream my late dog who passed unexpectedly, it's often very distressing, because I somehow know she will leave me again and I need to protect her. I usually end up crying in sleep.

Similar, but I kind of know she's actually dead, but I then actively suppress the thought to spend more time with her in my dream.
