I had a dream the other day that myself and others were being pursued by government assassins. I proclaimed that I wasn’t afraid of them. The people I was with said that nothing bad would happen to me because I didn’t live there.

Right then a bunch of guys in suits burst in and grab the people that I was with. They held me down and made me watch as they force fed poison to the people I was with.

I watched in horror as pink foam came from their moths and they flopped around on the floor. Obviously in pain. They made gurgling sounds through the foam.

Right then my partner woke me up to say she was going to work. I had only been asleep for an hour and a half. My heart was pounding from what I had just witnessed. There was no way I could go back to sleep after that.

Interpretation: “Pursued by government assassins” is referencing your desire to be socially accepted

“I proclaimed that I wasn’t afraid” is referencing the anxiety you feel day to day about being accepted into a community.

“The people I was with” is referring to all your internal struggles and thoughts pushing you to just go out and accept those around you. There is no fear and you will be accepted for who you are.

“Guys in suits” section is about your anxiety taking over and murdering any good thoughts about reaching out to others and forming long lasting relationships that are mutually beneficial to the survival of human kind.

“I watched in horror” is you not fighting back but allowing your anxiety to control you as hope dies in front of you.

“Right then my partner”… wait a second, this is Lemmy. Stop bullshitting me. i
