Here's the link to a poem I posted about my nightmares.

Recurring Nightmare

I think it's obvious I was feeling trapped. I'm beginning to have those dreams again. Every so often, though, I find the door and walk out.

My T told me that buildings or any means of transportation are a symbol of your life. Also, the other people in your dreams could very well be symbols of other parts of yourself. Just like the example you've gotten here. If the sky turns dark and stormy, it's probably something inside YOU.

There was something I read that gave a way to change the outcome of your dreams. For me, what works, is to change what's happening in my life. I know now that I have "a way out" if I choose to take it.
