What does this dream mean [nsfw]?

Asked by ragingloli (51966points) July 31st, 2019

You are in your former school, and you really have to take a dump, so you go to the school toilets, only to find that they are all filthy and overflowing with shit.
Did you ever have similar dreams?

I can’t say I’ve ever had that dream, no. But I have had dreams where I’m in a public bathroom and I’m completely exposed, like the stall dividers are only two feet high so everybody’s watching me go. I think it speaks to my general anxiety about using public bathrooms.

Sorry this answer is gross…
I remember my friend told a similar dream during a tough time in his life. He’d just split from his girlfriend and came to stay with me for a while. I have a ‘no porn’ rule for my household internet, and when I busted him on breaking the rule, he told me he’d been spending way too much time surfing porn. Then he related this dream…

Same as yours, described specifically as his high school restroom, but the walls, ceiling, floor were coated in crap. He saw in the corner of the room a small baby lying on its back crying. As he approached the child, he saw a turd formed in the shape of a Christian Cross laid across the forehead of the baby. My friend was extremely disturbed by this nightmare. He told me later that he’d spoken to his ex-girlfriend and she related to him that she had an abortion without discussing it with him.

I wonder if the school bathroom represented places on the internet that we shouldn’t spend too much of our time in. But hey, if ya got to go, ya got to go.

I told my friend that everything was going to be alright. He told me years later that I was right.

Dreams aren’t a straight map from symbols to meanings for all people. They’re in code, and the dreamer should try to feel out what it means for them.

I’m not sure I’ve had that exact dream but I’ve had some close ones, and I know of some people having had such dreams.

Again, dreams are personal. If it were my dream, I would look/think/feel for what the school context means and feels like it is about to me, and then bathrooms, and then poopy unusable bathrooms.

Sometimes something like that seems to mean I actually need to go to the bathroom…

But for me, bathrooms tend to involve something about social issues, and whether I feel like I have what I need or not, and how I relate to my community. Often in my dreams bathrooms come with issues about privacy and usability and embarrassment, and for me tend to be about messy social situations.

Maybe its symbolic meaning..that you thought in the past that your schooling was “shit”.

“You have to take a dump”..meaning you have to get rid of ( expel) negativity.

Could also be symbolic for the word “bullshit”?Meaning that you think that the schooling that you had received was or is ” Bull..t.”
Perhaps you may not like the way that conventional teaching is taught.

Perhaps you may need hands on teaching instead..example: Apprenticeship?

Take it for what it is..just my opinion on it.

I loved school. Didn’t stop me from dreaming that I went to school with no underwear on.

Means the kids at your school were disgustingly dirty and the cleaning staff either could not keep up with the constant cleaning of those shitholes or couldn’t be bothered to! Good old school memories!

I’ve had similar experiences. Apparently school bathrooms, are not a appoririity. Only like 40% work. If you’re lucky. And you have kids looking in on you. So. It’s pretty hard to take a number 2….

@Dutchess_lll Ya I wouldn’t follow that link unless I wanted to have some poopy nightmares…

@Zaku
I just happened to locate numerous dream interpretation sites and randomly picked that one. The Op can look online for what suits them.
At least I was trying to help.

@Inspired_2write Hey I was just joking around, imagining what it might be like.

Taking a look at your link, it’s actually on point and looks like a good resource I’ll share with my dream group etc!
