What you say does make a lot of sense, however, I have one question.

Would this mean that I'm somehow afraid of my inner demons? I ask because in this dream, the insects couldn't touch me in my bedroom because it is was my "safe area" much like when I was growing up and facing the problems that I had to deal with from my mother and bullies at school, my bedroom which had my computer where I spent countless hours playing games, watching videos, and reading was the only place that I felt "safe".
