Okay, so for the past few months I've been dreaming of myself in various situations, hanging out with friends, going to places, that sort of thing. More often than not, in these dreams, something will happen to get me angry or sand and depressed and I will attempt to self harm by either using a needle to cut my skin or hitting objects such as the wall to cause damage to my hand. Something always stops me, though, like someone will keep me from doing it, I'll change my mind or my body is physically unable to perform these actions.

Now, I used to self harm in these two ways, I stopped about three months ago and haven't done any form of self harm since then. I'm just wondering, what do the dreams of failed self harm mean? It's kind of doing my head in...

I think it's your mind trying to get used to the idea of not self-harming. It's a good sign imo.

The dream is a result of your healing and personal growth.
