I had a dream where I uncontrollably shit my pants for more then a couple of hours...

I might delete this because I can't be bothered creating an alt, but I have to share this somewhere since I just had this dream.
---------
Dreamstart-

I was playing videogames (LAN) with some friends. An attractive girl there complimented me for my music choices (don't know the girl) and suddenly out of the blue, I shit myself.

I run into the restroom to clean up, shitting some more, then when't back outside. Immedietly after I get outside, I again start shitting myself.

The dream gets hazy but I remember walking around, with shit in my pants, going up to my father and asking for help. He almost vomited and couldn't stand near me and said something like "Hell no I am not giving you a lift with this smell". I sort of didn't argue with that and just kept running, still shitting my pants.

Then I am in a fancy hotel, and I am knocking on someones door to beg them to use their bathroom. Once I am stepping inside, they notice the smell and I keep saying "Somethings fkt up with my stomach". I get to the bathroom, and its like a glass cage in the corner of the main room, and there where people having a party.

So I am in that glass cage, which has a shower and a toilet, standing under the shower, cleaning, pooping, scooping poop into the toilet. And outside, in the apartment in the main room, where people having a small "party". At first they where disgusted, but shortly after, and for a while they were laughing. I didn't feel ashamed, just frustrated, because I had no control over this. But I was angry.

So angry that at one point, the people in the party got an elderly couple from outside to see what was going on. The old lady goes all the way to the class cage, opens it, all while mockingly laughing. But she steps inside. So in my rage, without thinking I take a scoop of shit from the toilet (which for clooged to the brim with shit) and covered her whole face in it. She was laughing the same the whole time.

Then I wake up.

Can someone help me decypher this? Is this just a random weed dream or is my head telling me something?

Had sex with my dad

So much happened in the dream, but my dad fucking me was the truly disturbing. I was just laying there and he comes up behind and start having sex with me.
My husband is laying across from me. He doesn’t say anything and I didn’t fully comprehend what was going on till he was close. and when he finishes I pushed him off in disbelief and went to the bathroom to clean up. I wasn’t angry per se, It was more disbelief and confusion because there was no reaction from anyone.

This was just one aspect of the dream , there was a lot of shit going on so I’ll just point out the things that stuck out.

-My parents, my husband and I were living together in my deceased grandparents house

-family started showing up at the house

- Me being really mad and disgusted about dirt/germs being everywhere. ( someone made a mess with feces)

-My deceased cousin laying in bed happy and laughing but he looked like how he looked after surgery to remove tumor in his head

-Animals ( snake, Jaguar or leopard couldn’t tell the difference) walking around that were bought by cousins I don’t get along with

-The snake bit my my mom multiple times

-A storm and a big lightning

-part of the roof of the house falling off

The dream was overall very weird and disturbing

Can anyone help me interpret my gory dream? I put an nsfw tag just in case.

My dream starts off with me and my grandma alone in the house during daytime. Some shady people start unpacking some weird tools in my kitchen and I lock the door and barely convice my grandmother to come inside. She's convinced that they are perfectly normal. I manage to usher her inside. As they notice that they've been locked out they ask nicely to come in, which I refuse. Soon after they all start screaming and banging their heads against our door and windows. They throw their own feces and one guy even pulls his own eye out and smashes it against the window as a warning.They break through the glass. I tell my grandmother to stay hidden so at least she stays alive. I somehow manage to fend them off for long enough and they start eating each other out of frustration. I'm talking absolutely gory stuff here. Like intestines hanging from the ceiling and blood everywhere. They killed each other off an I am surprisingly still alive, then the "leader" shows me my supposedly dead grandomother's brain and when I tell him that it's not her brain. He cries out because he doesn't know I'm bluffing and he shoots himself in the head and splatters blood everywhere. As I go outside I notice that bunch of cat corpses lay outside, including my own cat.

Poop

23/f
I had the weirdest dream last night. I moved back into a college dorm with my roommate I didn’t get along with. All the walls were made of glass, so there was no privacy. So I’m back at college and get way too drunk one night and I wake up (in the dream) and realize I shat the bed. I then woke up for real, fully believing it was real for a minute. Luckily it was all just a dream.

Edit: apparently I need to add more context about my life. I’ve been feeling anxious about losing my job because of Covid-19 but other than that, life has been pretty normal. I’m helping my sister reschedule her wedding, and having a virtual bachelorette party this weekend. I’m lonely af and living with my parents.

Have you ever dreamt that you are another race, religion, gender, or culture?

I had a dream where I am a twin girl of African heritage (fighting over sharing dresses with my sister, trying to win a mans attention), once I dreamt I was a Jewish little child hiding in a poop filled outhouse hiding from Natzis, once I dreamt I was a little native indian girl (Cree?) and had my hair braided by the chief (so honoured), and one last night where I was a Chinese little girl, feeing a war torn communist China. It doesn't happen all the time, but I do dream about being other races/religions fairly often.
