Dream About Suffocation And Torture By Psychiatrist
Analyze my dream

This dream was about

I had a dream last night that my psychiatrist was torturing me by suffocation. My mouth was covered and I had a stuffy nose and couldn't breathe enough through my nose but she kept saying "It's okay. Calm down and just breathe through your nose." But I couldn't tell her my nose was blocked because my mouth was already covered so I was slowly suffocating and having to do some kind of physical training therapy and getting shocked by a shock collar every time I did something wrong. I was trying to get away and scream but I couldn't and woke up from that feeling extremely upset before 4am.

Emily, your dream presents a profoundly distressing scenario that seems to reflect significant internal struggles and anxieties. The imagery of your psychiatrist torturing you by suffocation can symbolize feelings of overwhelming pressure and a lack of control in your waking life. The act of having your mouth covered, combined with a stuffy nose, suggests a sense of being silenced or unable to express crucial concerns or emotions. This could be linked to real-life situations where you feel unheard or stifled, particularly in matters related to your mental health and well-being. The repeated insistence by your psychiatrist to 'breathe through your nose' despite your physical inability to do so might represent the frustration and helplessness you feel when advice or expectations from others don't align with your reality. This part of the dream highlights the internal conflict between what is expected of you and what you are genuinely capable of at the moment. The physical training therapy and the shock collar serve as harsh metaphors for the rigorous and punitive self-criticisms or external pressures you might be facing. These elements suggest that any misstep or failure is met with severe consequences, which could be reflective of a harsh inner critic or external judgment. Your attempt to escape and scream, only to find yourself unable to, underscores a deep sense of entrapment and desperation.
