Breaking Free: A Dream of Liberation from Abuse
I had a dream that I was in the mall with my family but we were all separated doing our thing each in a different place , and suddenly my abusive dad started publicly insulting me calling me fat and ugly and people around me we're side eyeing him, and I wanted to react loudly and insult him back but something told me to react gracefully, and after he was done insulting me and a lot of people gathered around us , he said that he finally figured out how to deal with me and he said he's disowning me , and the second he said that people went silent but I was screaming of joy and I turned around and hugged a friend and people started cheering because I was finally free from my abusive dad since he disowned me ,

This dream reflects the dreamer’s desire to break free from an abusive relationship, specifically with their father. The mall symbolizes the dreamer’s current state of being, where they are surrounded by people and distractions, but still feel separated and alone. The separation from family members represents the emotional distance between the dreamer and their family due to the abuse. The father’s public insults and the reactions of the people around the dreamer suggest that the abuse is not a secret and is causing the dreamer shame and embarrassment. The dreamer’s initial desire to react with anger and insult back is a reflection of their suppressed anger towards their abuser. However, the dreamer’s decision to react gracefully suggests a desire to rise above the abuse and not let it control their emotions. The father’s disownment of the dreamer symbolizes the dreamer’s desire to be free from the toxic relationship. The dreamer’s joy and the cheers of the people around them represent the dreamer’s sense of liberation and relief from the abuse. This dream may be a reflection of the dreamer’s subconscious desire to break free from the abuse and start a new chapter in their life.
