Dream About Terrifying Book Chase

Dream interpretation about Fighting, Chasing, Life, Child, Flying, Terrified

This dream was about

There are these books I hated when I was a kid: I only read one in real life, but never any of the others in the series because the covers terrified me. Anyway, one of the books, I'm being forced to read by something. I don't know who or what is forcing me, but I open the book, and it's covered in slime, which triggers my gag reflex and my fight or flight response, I'm running out as quick as I can, but I get the feeling I'm being chased. I wake up before I can find out if I'm being chased, and by whom or what.

Hey Matt, Your dream about being forced to read a slimy book from a series that terrified you as a child likely reflects some unresolved fears or anxieties that you may still be carrying with you. The feeling of being chased and the fight or flight response suggest that you may be feeling overwhelmed or pressured in some area of your life. It's interesting to note that this dream ties into your previous experience of being terrified by the covers of these books as a child. This suggests that your subconscious mind may be trying to communicate something important to you about facing your fears and confronting the things that scare you in order to move forward.
