What do these multiple dreams about my family being against me mean?

Question

For the past 2 years or so, I have been having a recurring dream. I have this dream about 2 or 3 times a year.

The dreams aren't always exactly same, but this is the basic theme: My entire family is against me. My father, mother, brother, and sister disdain me. The whole dream is either me arguing my point of view and none of them agreeing with it, or everyone fighting with and yelling at me. Simply put, it's always Them vs. Me.

The thing that gets me about this dream is that in reality I have a great relationship with my parents and brother and sister. What are these dreams saying? And why to they keep happening? Because my relationship with all my relatives, not just my immediate family, is good and healthy.

Here's my background info: I am 22 years old and the oldest of my parents' three kids. My parents also have a good relationship with each other. I am in college, so I don't live at home anymore.

Answer 1

My thought is that you're experiencing these type of dreams is because you really like your family and feel really close to them your hidden fear is that you're afraid to lose them and have them all against you.

Don't worry I don't think it's anything you should worry about and it's more of a nightmare then a dream

Anyways, I hope you get better

I always dream the future..and I experience  unique dreams and nightmares all the time

So I'm pretty sure yours is just fear, and it won't happen!

Just stay nice to them and it won't become that

Do you have a tendency to keep your opinions to yourself because you don't want to cause conflict in the family?  If you make a statement, and someone disagrees, do you just drop it, or agree with them, so there will be no conflict?

It sounds to me as if, possibly, you do have some internal conflict over the nature of your family relationships.  Maybe you have a "peace at any cost" attitude.  It IS good to be pleasant and maintain pleasant relationships if at all possible, but I hope this doesn't mean you will never make your own choices or follow what is right for you to keep everyone else happy.

Ask God to show you if you are in bondage in any way, or sacrificing anything that is really important to keep peace with your family.  Pray for wisdom on how to do what is right, even if your family will not agree with your choices.  Keep in mind, at your age, it is natural to question many things in your upbringing, but often, as you gain knowledge and life experience, you end up realizing your parents were right about many things all along.  The key is to decide what REALLY matters and be true to yourself, and be respectful and loving toward your family as well.  

Even when we realize we don't always agree with someone we love, it is not necessary to convince them to agree with us.  If you have to make choices they don't understand, if you continue to treat them with love and respect, over time, they may come to see that you have made the right choices, and respect you for it.  If not, you can love them, even if they don't approve.  

On first reading, you may think I'm nuts, but do pray and ask God to give you wisdom in all things.  And thank Him for the blessing of a loving family!

In reality, only a psychiatrist could really interpret this. I am not a professional. This is how I read it. I majored in the Social Sciences which incorporate Psychology, Sociology and Physical Anthropology.

I am feeling that you are concerned about some deep seated resentment based on something that happened in the past. What appears good on the outside is not really good on the inside.

Answer 4

It could possibly mean that because you are living away from home, you feel that you are seperating from your family, or maybe you feel that you have done something to dissapoint them, or Sometimes dreams are fears, and you fear of loosing them and not having them with you anymore
