Not sure why but this dream is bothering me. I feel really scared to show it to my T, that she will say that it means we should terminate thrapy.
I know not everyone is into dreamwork, but I'd appreciate any thoughts or interpretations:
I am in my T's consulting room. I am trying to tell her about a journey I have just made in which the aircraft crashed. The door of the room opens and her daughter comes in to talk to her She stays for a few minutes then leaves, not closing the door behind her. Other people wander in and out until there is a group of us in the room. I pull out some biscuits and pass them round. By the time the packet gets back to me it is empty. I look at my watch and see that it is the end of the session. I want to tell my T that I think I should go, but she has gone to the bathroom. She has been gone a long time and it crosses my mind that she is defecating. I decide to leave. I tell the other people in the room that I think she should pay me for the session.
As I go I look back. Through the window I can see my T with her next client. It is a little boy and he is lying on the couch. She has draped a soft white towel over her arms and is kneeling beside him on the floor. I know she is going to catch him in her arms when he falls. I feel a great sense of yearning and loss.
I walk up the hill towards home. There is an old beggar man dressed in a greasy black suit who starts to follow me, muttering to himself. It is growing dark and I am overwhelmed with dread. I tell the man that he must leave me alone, but he mumbles incoherently and claws blindly at me. I realize I cant communicate anything to him. I am very afraid.
