so i had this really tramatic thing happen to me a while back that i dont want to go into detail about, but the very next night after it happened i started having this really weird dream that im getting pushed into this hole by my boyfriend. (the thing that happened had nothing to do with him) so i was wondering if anyone can tell me why i am having this same dream every night, or just tell me what can trigger "chronic reoccuring dreams". does this happen to anyone else? is it normal to get pushed into a hole every night by your boyfriend? why does this happen? thank you for your responses!!!

I think that when you start having the same dream over and over again, you need to start thinking about whether or not that dream is trying to tell you something about your life at that current time. One of the things that I kept dreaming about was arguing with my friend, and it made me realise that I was actually stressed about my friendship with this girl, and I didn't want to be friends with her anymore but I didn't know how to tell her. So, in that situation, my dreams were able to show me the things that I wanted from life, I just needed the time to realise that.

If dreams are repeating then it will come true.I have heard this from someone but i do not remember his name..They are sometimes are giving you some warnings about something..I think you should take it seriously..

Well usually stressful reoccurring dreams sometimes happen when you are under pressure for something. Maybe for something important at school/at work/in your family/ etc.

Are u currently under a lot of stress with someone pushing you around in the day? This might be the stress that lead to this dream. Try to drink some hit milk and have a good sleep.

That you are having the same (recurring) dream is your psyche (subconscious mind) telling you that you are bothered by some event or actions in your waking life. The occurrence of the dream and the traumatic event may not even be related but the trauma event may have triggered some latent issue (in other words something you've been ignoring or putting off) and it is imperative (important) that you resolve it now. The PUSHING could denote a person, situation, thought, etc which you feel is forcing you to be or do something you are reluctant to do. Maybe even put you in a "space" (the hole) you'd rather not dwell. The HOLE is a dark place generally. It could be where you are at right now in your life OR feel you are in. The hole may denote depression or change. Do you feel like you're being pushed to change? Do you feel your traumatic event is forcing you to change. Is it depressing you, as well? The hole could represent a place or situation like school, home environment, a relationship, an event, work, etc. Also, a hole can be where we put things that we want to stymie, to shut out or shut up. Ask yourself do you feel like someone or something wants to shut you up or shut you out? The BOYFRIEND could represent a current person or situation. How would you describe your Man's attitude, personality, profession, etc. I strongly think that he is being used to represent a quality that he possesses that you are may be avoiding or feel reluctant to make a part of you. In this case the boyfriend is really an aspect of you and the quality the dream boyfriend depicts: You are pushing yourself into a hole, a black depression which you direly wish to escape. Hope that helps. . . . Penny

I'm not a dream interpreter, and I know even less about reoccurring dreams than I know regular dreams. I've never had one personally. When you say something traumatic happened to you, I have a thought that it might be related to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, but I believe PTSD flashback-dreams are closer in nature to the traumatic event and you said your boyfriend had nothing to do with the event. But that's my only guess.
