Dream About Layered Experience In Dreams
Analyze my dream

This dream was about

I was hired by an underground organization to apply my skill as a writer. The project was clandestine, but not illegal. It was my job to write persuasive arguments for some position or other. I would submit them and never hear back. I worked from a comfortable home that I never left. I remember things being dark throughout the dream and wanting to increase the gamma but being unable to. It made me feel a little depersonalized IN THE DREAM - in other words, my CPTSD was showing its symptoms *performatively*, as if my subconscious was bringing my attention to the emotional experience of being in a de-realized (dreamlike?) state WHILE IN FACT BEING IN A such a state, since that is rather like what a dream is! However, I did not experience lucidity of the sort that makes one aware that he’s dreaming. Instead, I got a simulation of that; my experience was a variety, I think, of the dream within a dream phenomenon. Have you heard of this sort of layered experience before but not with respect to fully lucid dreaming, which while interesting is less interesting than this!

Z, your dream presents a rich tapestry of themes that reflect your current emotional and psychological landscape. The setting of being hired by an underground organization suggests a desire for secrecy or possibly a feeling of being outside conventional society, which could mirror your own experiences, particularly in relation to your past relationships and the complexity of your current emotional state. This organization, while not illegal, implies that you are engaged in something morally ambiguous, hinting at inner conflicts you may be grappling with regarding your choices and the paths you have taken in life. The act of writing persuasive arguments indicates your desire to communicate and influence, yet the fact that you never receive feedback speaks volumes about feelings of isolation and perhaps frustration. This aspect of your dream could symbolize your longing for validation or connection, particularly after having gone through a divorce. It might reflect your need for your voice to be heard and acknowledged, yet feeling as though your efforts go unnoticed, which can be a painful echo of your real-life experiences. The darkness that envelops your dream setting could represent feelings of uncertainty or fear. The desire to increase the gamma signifies a wish to bring light to your situation, to clarify your thoughts and emotions. However, your inability to do so hints at a struggle with your own mental state, possibly linked to your CPTSD.
