\u00a0Hi Heather\u2014<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>You\u2019re being chased! And none of your friends, or family members, seem to notice that you need help! (What kind of \u201cfriends\u201d are they?)<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>Chase dreams are pretty common. If you ask your friends, I\u2019ll bet that nearly every one has had one. \u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>Usually chase dreams mean that we are \u201crunning from\u201d or \u201ctrying to avoid\u201d difficult feelings or awarenesses inside us. For example, if our parents are fighting and arguing a lot, we may want to avoid the disturbing thought that maybe one day they will decide to get a divorce, and split up our family. In a dream, this fear might be represented as a monster, that kept chasing us no matter what we did to get away. \u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>The only thing that is consistent in your dreams (besides you being chased) is that this \u201cmonster\u201d is an older man. Can you think of anyone specifically in your life right now (an older male) who bugs you – or who you think is a little bit creepy? Your dream also may be reflecting unwanted feelings of attention by older men, who are beginning to look at you sexually. You\u2019d like these \u201cunwanted advances\u201d to go away – but they seem to \u201cjust keep coming.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>In your dream, you yell for help from your family and friends, but no one seems to notice. What\u2019s the message? You\u2019re feeling alone in your fears right now. \u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>Have you considered talking with your friends about your feelings, and this dream, and letting them know whatever creepy feelings you have\u2014that might be bugging you? We all get \u201cchased\u201d by our fears sometimes. But if you want to make these dreams go away, you have to identify the issues that they represent, and stand your ground in real life! \u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>The Dream Doctor\u2019s advice? Talk to your friends! You\u2019re not alone!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
