Wow! That is some major insight that I didn't even think of, Shangrala! Thank you! I have been thinking about this dream a lot and remember thinking that there was a part of me that really wanted to jump, but once the bars had closed in, I was thankful that there was a barrier or something because I didn't
really want to go through with it.
In my dream, I can recall feeling like I needed saving and that the bars closing was saving me from doing something I didn't want to do without
me having to make the decision. If that makes any sense at all.
I feel like there was a part of me that needed help, but didn't know how to ask for it, so instead there were drastic measures that were taken (threatening SU in my dream).
I really need to think about this more because what you said really hit me (in a good way).
