An interpretation of insanity dreams
This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. Dreams exaggerate, and insanity can be an exaggeration of wild, reckless, or irrational behavior. It’s a way of amplifying the behavior to make you aware of it. It can reflect a situation where you don’t understand a person’s reaction. It seems crazy or irrational to you. Insanity can symbolize chaos. Life is upside down, or a situation is tense or unpredictable. It can be the sort of situation where you say, “It’s driving me crazy!” Or, “I could go insane!” Dreams use wordplays to create symbolism. Another word for insane is “mad,” and mad can mean angry. Therefore, dreaming about an insane person or situation can symbolize being angry or upset. Or it can mean a safe place or refuge. See: Anger Of course, people can act insane and crazy things do happen. A dream is likely to obscure it with symbolism. For example, after an encounter with a crazy relative at a Christmas gathering, you dream about Santa Claus flying his sleigh like a drunk pilot and cackling maniacally. The theme of insanity can arise in dreams to symbolize something scary or bad. The connections are made because crazy people can be scary and do bad things. An asylum is a perfect setting to describe chaos in your mind. Your mind is represented in dreams as a place, especially a building. It can mean you have been acting or thinking irrationally or recklessly. Your life is out of control. Your feelings are in turmoil. An asylum can characterize an environment such as home or work. It’s crazy, chaotic, dysfunctional, leaderless. Is your job like an insane asylum, or home life like a mental ward? An asylum can symbolize living in a fantasy world. It can symbolize feeling like you are treated like you’re crazy or abnormal. For an example dream, see: Brother. It can symbolize an out of control situation. An abandoned asylum can symbolize a crazy time of your life that’s behind you. You might dream about that time of life because something recently reminded you of it. You saw an old frat buddy, or exam week is coming up, or you started a new relationship and hope it doesn’t turn out crazy like the last one.
