["Closed" Temporarily]Have your dreams & nightmares interpreted!

This is my earliest dream I remember. It's wierd AF but I was around 6 I think.
Always wanted to know what it meant.
So what I can remember:
I am having a bath and then The doctor comes in (David Tennent) and I can't remember what he says, I see a Dalek come in and go out, I grab a towl and walk out and see the Dalek trying to put my t-shirt on. Then I open the room to my mums office and I see my mum and my past teachers. That's all I can remember.... I was a wierd child.
 
Probably the scariest dream I've had is, I once dreamt that my teeth began loosening, since I wear braces, when I pulled a tooth, all my teeth came out in a big chain. And then I woke up.

Unrelated but still, I've twice experienced sleep paralysis, and seeing what looked like monsters at the foot of my bed.

Well, I'm not exactly the type to be overconfident. I'm actually pessimistic of myself, so I wager it's about losing that sense understanding on myself, especially since I've been reflecting on my actions a bit recently.
I liked your explanation for the space and how it relates to everything else. Thanks for the interpretation, it was most definitely helpful! :) To me, it seemed all too obscure, so I didn't think on it much, but after reading what you wrote, it shed some light onto some questions I've been pondering on about for a while now.

Alright, I'll try finding a copy of it in the library. Thanks for the recommendation!

I figured it was the losing sense of understanding, but I added the other bit because I'm never really sure until someone clarifies. That is kind of hard to do in a forum setting. I'm really glad that this helped you with questions!

Thanks so much! I think it explains a lot haha xD
It was really interesting to read what you put - so thanks again!

No problem! I'm glad that you found it interesting. I'm afraid it will appear boring sometimes.

Thanks for the detailed explanation!

You're welcome! Your dream had lots of detail that made a detailed explanation possible.

Alright, I'll try to interpret more here and there. I'm sorry if it takes awhile for me to get to your dreams! I'm in midterms week, so I don't have as much time, but I want to give as much as I can (plus I would rather interpret these since they're interesting. However, I do need to keep up my grades. :p). I promise I will get to your dream as soon as I can!
 
i can still vividly remember this dream i had when i was really young (i was at least six at the time from what i recall). in the house my family used to live in before moving, the living room was set up with all my family members sitting by the walls and in the middle of the room there was just a table. one thing lead to another, and i was being chased by this pokemon http://i.imgur.com/N3XN0XE.png and i know it was a pokemon bc i used to be obsessed with it since then lol..i still am. he was just chasing me around the table for hours while my family members just sat there and watched, not even trying to save me or anything

i had the exact same dream earlier this week but with the updated appearance on everyone. im curious to know if theres by any chance a reason behind this type of dream. in other words, was being chased by some black ghost that looked like a pokemon and nobody helped as they watched

i actually have an idea of what it could mean but im not sure if im right >< my theory is that its supposed to represent what ive been going through, which is depression and the dream perfectly shows how it feels. theres this black cloud constantly following me around and theres nothing i can do but just let it do what it needs to do, which represents depression. everyone knows that im depressed by this point tbh, but nobody has even tried being supportive..so ive kind of been on my own all this time and as i already mentioned, the description isnt far off the mark compared to my dream

Ah Gengar. He?s definitely not a pokemon you want to mess around with. I?ve played Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blue Rescue team and his role in that game definitely made me much more afraid yet intrigued about the pokemon.

Now on to your dream! Houses in general are your soul and being, and certain rooms indicate a certain part of your psyche. In particular, being in the living room represents the kind of image you show to others. It is what you believe about yourself and who you are, or freedom. I like the dream manual?s explanation that the living room is symbolic of the boundary between the personal and public self. Things that are in living room and don?t belong in there represent aspects of your life invading your personal space. I guess that would be the pokemon Gengar that has invaded your personal space.

You are being chased by this pokemon, and chase dreams are one of the most common dreams. This chase that is happening in the center around the table shows that it is a situation you feel that you cannot get out of. The table represents social unity and family connections, and I find that interesting because your family is in your dream. I think your family being in your dream is supposed to reinforce this family connection symbol and also reflects how you want your family to think of you and your relationship to them. Perhaps you want to show them who you are, as indicated by them being in the living room. It could also mean that you want them to see this thing that has invaded your personal space, the pokemon that is chasing you.

For the pokemon Gengar, I?m going to combine ghosts, the meaning for ?playing pokemon? and facts on Gengar that I got from bulbapedia when determining the meaning. Being chased by an ?animal? in particularly also shows that you are somewhat angry about this symbol. Perhaps you are angry about what this pokemon or ghost represents. Apprently playing pokemon indicates desires to expand social circle and looking for acceptance. I know you weren?t playing pokemon, but I thought this would kind of relate to what your psyche might want. Ghosts that are ?trying to kill you? as I have kind of taken this to be implies being ready to confront the past and facing your fears. I know that in your interpretation you have come to see the ghost pokemon Gengar as a symbol of depression. Perhaps having this dream once again with the faces of your family changed to reflect the change in time, shows that you are ready to either conquer depression itself or the way others have viewed you concerning your depression. The family watching you represents lack of privacy, just as the presence of something not belonging to the living room represents invasion of your space. From what I?m getting about the pokemon Gengar, Gengar seems to be a pokemon associated with giving curses, taking the heat away and making its surroundings colder, hiding in the shadows, pretending to be your shadow, stealing life of its target, and attacking those lost in the mountains. Gengar definitely does seem to be representative of depression. I can imagine that it feels like a curse, it makes daily life a lot colder, it hides within you and it feels like it is stealing your life away. It attacks when one is lost. Huh, this is quite an interesting take actually. Perhaps your subconsciousness was familiar with Gengar and used Gengar as a metaphor for what you were going through.

I always think that the meaning you give for your own dream is usually the one that is the ?correct? meaning, since you would know yourself more than I would. I think your meaning and the meaning above actually correlate and go hand in hand with each other. It must have been hard going through depression on your own. :/ I know I?ve gone through something similar myself last summer and throughout high school, and it really does suck when no one understands. I hope you know though, that there are resources out there that you could turn to for help! You definitely have me to talk to if you ever need someone to confide in. There are people that have gone through what you have. I hope this interpretation also encourages you to keep seeking for others that understand. I kind of see it as your subconsciousness reaching out for others. As always though, I will leave you to decide how to take this interpretation.

I hope this helps and remember, you always have me and probably others in BTB to turn to. :)
 
ahh thank you so much <3 its so kind of you to be doing this for us

Wow you're fast! You're welcome! :) I enjoy doing this. I didn't expect getting much thanks though, so I'm really happy that this is helping everyone. ^-^

i have dreams of my deceased father a lot. sometimes it'll just be a dream of him and nothing else. just minutes of him standing calmly, with heavy breaths. he's normally towering over me as i stand there and do nothing. these dreams always make me feel exposed and useless. i'll generally wake up in cold sweats. it's always awful ugh.

I?d like to start with expressing my condolences. I?m sorry about your loss and I hope that I can spread good vibes even through the computer. My mother?s father passed away and his passing affected my entire family, so in a way I kind of know how you feel. I?m not sure how recently it is that your father passed away, but even if it has been a long time, there are still things in our lives that remind us of people that we love. Perhaps his memory is still fresh in your mind and there are still things around you that remind your subconscious about your father.

Seeing your deceased parents represent ways that our subconsciousness tries to cope with the loss. It can be said that dreams are a way to say final good-byes. It is definitely a manifestation of how much you miss your father. Many times, we are busy in our waking lives and do not have the time to express certain emotions and feelings we may have of things important to us. Our dreams, therefore, serve as an outlet for those feelings. This is the same case here, where your dreams might be an outlet in coping and coming to terms with the loss of your father. I also want you to think about aspects of your father that you might also want to incorporate in your life. The heavy breathing seems to be about feelings of anxiety. Perhaps there are some repressed negative feelings that only your dreams allow to be expressed. I?m not sure, but I think your father towering over you and looking down at you could be a pun on ?looking down? as in feeling down. This is again linked to the coping and the release of such emotions in your dreams. The uselessness, or helplessness as I have interpreted it, suggests difficulty in confronting a situation or relationship. Perhaps you are having difficulty in this coping process? On the other hand, the feeling of being exposed indicates something that you are hiding. I?m not sure what it is that your hiding. It could be related to your father, to coping, or something else related. I invite you to think what it is that you might be hiding from others or yourself.

If you ever need someone to talk to, I?m here for you. I want to express my condolences again and thank you for talking about this, even though it must have been difficult to do so. I hope that the interpretation made some sort of sense for you. My message here is to continue to allow yourself to feel these emotions and continue through the coping process. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with. :)
 
I try to kill myself and I always die in my dreams or end up in the hospital but when I'm in my imagined afterlife it's just an empty room

Before I start, I used to have dreams where I would kill myself or die as well. I do remember not seeing much in the afterlife as well. This used to freak me out so much until I found the dream website.

Death dreams are actually really common and are NOT an indicator that you will die the next day or soon. In fact, it is usually something related to transformation, or the end to something that was detrimental to you. Committing suicide in a dream is supposed to represent escape from waking life or saying good-bye to the old self and welcoming the new self. I usually like to go with the latter, though if you get them a lot, perhaps you might have a desire to escape from the waking life pressures. Unlike the negative connotations of the waking life version, the dream suicide is a symbol of personal transformation or a new stage in your life. Perhaps your killing yourself is actually a transformation of yourself. This is related to the regular dying dream. It?s more about transitions rather than actual danger. You are moving on to something new and leaving the past behind, possibly leaving behind old habits. Perhaps, think about what kinds of transformations or changes you have gone through whenever you have these kinds of dreams.

Whenever you see a hospital it is usually your subconscious telling yourself that you need to heal yourself! Take care of your physical and mental health. Also, being in an empty room indicates a fresh start. Perhaps with this transformation, you want to restart on a ?blank slate? and being a new life.

Surprised that this is more positive? Some people usually think death is a bad thing. Usually in dream world it is actually one of the most positive dreams you can have. It represents your willingness to change and heal to welcome a new person. I hope this helps!

Okay, I have to wake up early tomorrow so I unfortunately need to stop here. I will get to the rest of the dreams. If you have Pm'd me, don't worry I saw your dreams and I will interpret them too soon. I want to make sure I spend enough time on them to give a thorough explanation.
 
I believe I had this dream sometime in July or August. Things you need to know prior: I'm young and living with my parents, I have a brother. It began with a group of basically psychopaths (although in my dream I just though of them as killers) break into my and kill my parents. I don't see them kill my parents but I know they're dead, the killers didn't use guns (I couldn't hear shots) because I can't imagine what firing a gun is like. Afterwards they pin my brother down and tell me I have to kill him or they will kill me. Out of complete fear I kill my brother with a knife, it takes many hit to kill him and so I was essentially torturing him because I couldn't put him out of his misery. It was very bloody. I feel stress and worry as the killers watch me, theme was also an underlying sadness from killing him but it was mostly fear. They set my brother's body on the counter. The killers then keep me alive but say I have to go with them. Every time they went somewhere to kill someone they forced me to watch the person get killed, if I intervened I knew I would be killed. Sometimes I would try to run the other way but I found myself in a loop where if I ran I would just come back to the same place. At one point they're done for the day and we sat around a camp fire. I notice that there were four members, the one I remember the most was a young teenage boy who basically was like her: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Bell (I didn't know about her at the time of the dream) he especially related to one of her quotes "Murder isn't that bad, we all die sometime anyway." I felt more comfortable talking to him when he asked but I was still terrified. I tried to make him think I supported the killing. Some stuff happened before here but I can't remember what, we came back to my house for some reason and I my brother's rotting corpse. It was a sickly green color. I woke up then. As far a colors in my dream red was the most prevalent but the sickly green color and dusty color of the landscape also stick with me. My most prevalent emotions were fear, hopelessness, pressure, and sadness.
I'm sorry for any grammar mistakes and lack of detail. I don't remember some parts clearly and it's a bit scary to remember the dream. I actually went on the same website the day I had that dream but couldn't figure it out. I have some more dreams if you're willing as well.
 
i just had a dream. but before i start, i wanna say that ive been watching this anime. the main characters are 2 boys who are best friends. in my dream, i was one of the boys and we were hanging out. it was so much fun in my dream. when i woke up from this pleasant dream, i kinda got depressed for a while. if i remember correctly, i dreamed of this twice. does it mean i need a best friend or something?

This dream is the weirdest one yet. I had this dream this week, and the more I think about it, the more I think my imagination is running too far. Here goes:

I am like a spirit in this dream. Aka I'm like a person watching a movie.

I see Anna from Frozen in this animal hospital looking at a platypus eating some brown and black goop. And then the platypus unzips it's 'disguise' (a platypus disguise) and there is a cat with mottled fur (I think?) And then Anna says something like, " What are you doing Pinky?" and looks at the cat in horror and disgust. And just when the cat is about to talk, I wake up.

I'm not a fan of Frozen, so I don't know why Anna was in my dream?
 
I always dream about real things, things that can happen in real life. I've never had a dream about flying or having some kind of power, nor have I dreamed about weird things like a kitten on a unicycle. Every dream I've ever had contained elements that could be found in real life. There will be times when I somehow know another person has a superpower (I call it "dream knowledge" when you somehow just know something) and sit there thinking "whoa, they can fly!" but I will never actually see it happen. I never actually see anything odd.
For example, I often dream about when I was in school, although the building is usually rearranged or completely different. I often talk or interact with people I used to know. Another frequent occurence is being in my house alone at night, or walking down the street after dark.

I remember reading that every person in you see in your dreams is someone you once saw in real life and it really gets me thinking. If you find out something about someone who you don't actually know in your dream, was it actually true in the real world? And I wonder if the same goes for things like buildings and streets. Is my mind making them up or have I been there before?
 
Awww! Those sounds really terrifying! I would probably get scared of the cartoon cats. *shudders*

Anyways! Let's see what I can get from these dreams. Dreams of being trapped that you are feeling ?trapped? in either job, career, health, or a personal relationship. Maybe you were just tired of the same thing happening over and over and over again. Running away from danger suggests that you are not facing and confronting your fears. Perhaps these fears are related to the symbols I describe below.

Was someone driving the car in your dream? If not, it suggests the need to rethink about how you control things and whether you are unwilling to take responsibilities for your actions. Almost getting hit suggests that your lifestyle, beliefs or goals may be in conflict with another's. Since you get sucked in sometimes, perhaps you feel a lack of power or control or that you are feeling forced to do something that you don't really feel like doing. The creepiness and being scared suggests either feelings of doubt and control, second thoughts, or even anger. This is because in dreams, fear is actually anger. In our subconsciousness, we are free to express our anger but there is still the social stigma, hence it masquerades as fear.

Hands serve as a form of communication. In this case, I think you were asking for protection because you were trying to reach out to other people for help. The screaming can either represent more anger or it could symbolize trouble with communicating with others about something. However, you were ignored in the dream. Being ignored indicates that you?re not paying attention to something. Since it is these people that ignore your screaming or reaching out, perhaps you are not paying attention to the way you are communicating with others or even to signs of either giving or receiving help. Maybe you are not paying attention to your feelings, particularly anger. I definitely think there is something about not paying attention to your feelings since being locked out suggests not being in touch with feelings. It can also be a metaphor for being locked out of something in real life.

The cartoonish nature of the other dream could indicate how you perceive the world in a comical manner, or that you need to enjoy and laugh at yourself sometimes. Actually, the comical manner kind of makes more sense because you apparently laughed upon waking up from the dream. I guess you also might have followed your dream?s advice to laugh at yourself? xD Apparently, if you are afraid of the cat in your dream, then it suggests that you are fearful of the feminine. I don?t know what to say about that. I only put it here just in case. I like to go more for the meaning that it could be a metaphor for "cattiness" or someone who is "catty" and malicious. The scratching could be about anxiety of ?starting from scratch.? The door is hard to interpret because I?m not sure whether it is closed or open. From the way you described it, I?m going to go with closed, but if it is actually open refer to the meaning here under door: open door I think the door is closed, so it could refer to opportunities missed out on. Perhaps this dream is trying to tell you that despite the anxiety and the missed opportunities, you either view this comically or you need to relax and laugh at yourself sometimes and restart? You would know better than I do.
I hope this helps!

That's actually a really common dream! There are many explanations for it right here: teeth falling dreams. They are too much to really list, so I'll let you read through that link and whichever one describes your situation at the time is usually it. As the site says, teeth dreams may occur when you are in a new relationship, when you switch jobs, or during a transitional period in your life.

This one is a little vague. Which loved ones and what exactly has gone wrong with them? Usually, your loved ones are either indications of certain aspects of yourself or your feelings towards your loved ones. What has gone wrong with them could indicate that something has gone wrong with those aspects or feelings. Maybe you have some anxieties concerning your relations with them or the qualities they represent about you? Let me know if you remember any of the details and I could help out more.

Well, my grandma died a few months ago, and I'm still coping. I love my family, and I never want them to die while I'm still alive..
 
A few days ago I dreamed that a boy I know was kissing a girl from my class, I was surprised because they hate each other so I didn't expect that even in a dream. What is strange about that is that the boy made the girl cry be the same day the dream happened
 
When I was little, I had recurring dreams from ages 5ish-10ish.

Each time it was someone different, but someone would walk out of my front door and down the sidewalk toward the driveway. As they were walking, a purple vortex would open up in the ground and the person would fall into oblivion. I always woke up terrified and on the verge of tears because of these dreams, and they happened weekly, at least.
 
I had a recurring dream almost every night I fell asleep last year. It was pretty disturbing too so I'm interested in what it means.

The dream always would start off calm, but in the middle of it, I would get in a really bad fight with a family member (always the same family member) and then for the rest of the dream, it would be me trying to kill that family member. I would always wake up right after the killing has been done.
First of all, I would never kill anyone lol, but I do have to say this family member I don't particularly get along with (but I've never fought with them before).
 
Well, I remember a dream I had where I was at the first floor of an old house I used to live in and scattered over the floor were a bunch of lit matches. I walked around them and sat on the couch.

Another dream I had was where we had gotten a new house. I was looking around in a large closet full of clothes and changed my underwear there. I noticed there was a party going on outside the closet and heard someone mention that Walt Disney was there. After finding a stuffed animal I was washing my hands in the bathroom and then felt like the dream was ending. I got really upset and left the house. I then followed the sidewalk and came to a playground when I noticed a couple of soliders in uniform were following me and woke up.

Also, I've had a few dreams where I'm in an arcade. Any idea what that means?

I had a dream I was doing rly **** at Maths so I ****ed my maths teacher and got an A what does this mean
 
Around a month ago I had this dream that started with two of my friends arguing. However, the argument came to an end when one of them said "Look at that!", pointing to this guy and girl I both know who were kissing in my dream (the girl IRL likes the guy she kissed in the dream), and then this other girl comes up to them and annoys them. However, then this other girl I know drags her away and then she, the girl that got kissed, and the girl in the argument, all dressed like geishas, begin a traditional Japanese dance.
What does this mean?
 
Wooo I’m back! I’m sorry I haven’t been able to do these interpretations for two weeks. I had midterms and it was a lot of studying. I believe I messaged all of the people that have in-boxed me, but if I somehow missed anyone please let me know! I'll start interpreting more dreams whenever I have time, but I have a lot more time now than before.
