Hitting people in dreams?

Question

Up until recently, whenever i hit someone in a dream, it would be really weak and pathetic and make me feel really bad, though recently, it's been different, and the hit has been quite hard, not very but not like a wet fish lol if that makes sense.

I don't have those dreams often, but when I do, it's only people who have upset me that I hit.

Is there an explanation for this change?

Answer 1

You don't feel intimidated by them any more.You're a stronger person now.

Answer 2

i know what u mean I punch and it feels like wet fish too!! lol  Its just u getting anger out and becoming more confident. u've never hit somebody so the wet fish thing comes from the fact that u don't know what if feels like to hit somebody.

Answer 3

Although I'm no expert on the subject, dreams are your brains way to dealing with everyday life.

Everything that has effect has an opposite effect.

Your dreams are showing that you are feeling possibly repressed by those around you, and in your dreams you hit them as a "release".

If your hitting someone in your dreams not too hard, then I would say it is because you are wishing they take you seriously or would appreciate you better, but feel regretful afterwards because you feel emotional towards them.

If your hitting someone more harder, then it's the idea of force that is in play. Your hitting them because you probably dislike them or are having trouble relating to them.

Dreams are just dreams, I wouldn't suggest you dwell on the subject too much, there is many books on the subject which I suggest you could look into if it is troubling you much.

You must be sorting things out a bit in your life. Getting a handle on things and seeing your way forward a bit more than you used to. Maybe you have put something to rest that has been bugging you for a long time?

Answer 5

Maybe it's a little supressed anger, or maybe you feel more at ease expressing stronger feelings in your dreams.

I have dreams where I'm getting more and more violent - throwing things and shouting at people.

I attribute it to the fact, I am more easily able to express on the inside, what I cannot express in reality.

In simple terms - I think it's a sign of developing inner strength.

Answer 6

That might explain the bruises I keep finding (ow)

I think maybe your becoming more confident in your abilities - now your pregnancy is over - you feel stronger, more capable. Thus when you lash out in your dreams, you have more power

Answer 7

its because it is summer and your arms arent under heavy blankets like they would be in the winter.. wear pyjama tops and keep your arms outside of your covers then you will really punch their lights out...

Answer 8

It mean you have stronger feelings of hate for those people. Or you just learned how to stand up for your self.
