I was feeling more tuned into "disturbed man going wild" rather than "how" he went wild. I feel the gun is an extreme symbol, your dreaming mind has to be really wanting to get a point across to do the "guns blazing" act? It just seems like there's a part of Whoever who is tired of being "whoever" and wants to be known, NOW?

So, yes, I'd say you were out of touch with yourself, Whoever, if you aren't able to work with a therapist to access this portion of yourself and your feelings. Dreams can help us see where we need help or they can work overtime to make sense of things that are confusing or difficult in the daylight so we don't break down but I don't think they can do either one of those forever?
