    Do you believe dreams hold meaning or symbolism?

    Woke up in bed, turned off the alarm, went to bathroom, brushed teeth...

    Then the damned alarm went off and I woke up in bed, but for real.

    Happens way too often that I have to slog through multiple boring morning routines before actually getting to start my day.

      The Dream: My mother gifted me an old, beat up RV to live in. It was filthy inside, rusted outside. I saw my aunt who wanted to see it and give me a house warming present but I told her No because it was so gross.

      The Explanation: It's because I have a very strained relationship with my family right now. They failed to step up to protect me when I was young, and then failed to show up again when I needed support as an adult (along with numerous times in between). They left me with trauma and fear and self-hatred without ever an apology or a modicum of empathy. It's left me with the intense desire to be seen and to be loved, but at the same time an intense fear of being treated again like I was for so long. It's left me opting out of most of life, because who would want to see such a disgusting, shoddy RV like me? And even if I do convince myself that someone might, what if they burn my RV down? Or come in and are repulsed because they don't like what they see?

        I dreamed I was repairing laptops, only to have them stolen from me.

        I sort of believe dreams hold meaning, but nothing significant. I often tend to dream about what's bothering me in waking life.

          I also think dreams are snippets of our minds running in the background that sometimes get patched together in odd ways 😄

          They can be influenced by recent events or things you think about often.

          Lucid dreaming is like a real-life superpower. I wish I was able to do it.

          There's a trade-off, though. Apparently lucid dreaming does nothing for you in terms of resting.

              I don't really believe dreams have meaning, but every so often I'll look something up that I dreamed about just to amuse myself and see what some would say it means, usually only if it's something very specific that was in the dream, like an animal or something.

                  I was in my aunt's house, but it was bigger. I think I was eating a meal with some family members. There was sunlight shining through the windows, although the outside had no details. I remember nothing else that matters.

                  Possible reason for this dream: yesterday, at around 9pm, my aunt called me saying she would like to bake a cake for my birthday, which is in some weeks from now. I agreed. Talking to her may have subconsciously reminded me of her home, and the birthday cake may have reminded me of eating and of childhood, explaining why the house was bigger in the dream (I used to go there as a child, and since I was smaller, the house felt bigger).

                    I went on vacation to the Jew moon with my friend. The jew moon was basically Israel on the moon under a literal dome. They had an ocean with very big slow moving waves and the earthrise was beautiful. Weird ass dream man.

                        I wish for you to find love for yourself and acceptance with those that will appreciate you for who you are. 🫂 The impact of trauma can be hard to reverse but not impossible. But the good news is that even an old beat up RV can be repaired, restored, used towards building/buying a new one.
