Today I had a dream where I was a chile again. I was in the therapy room of my childhood, and the therapist in front of me was the therapist I had when I was 16. She asked me if I had something dark to tell. I said "My mom doesn't allow me to tell certain things", and she said "If an adult tell you to kept a secret that hurta, you should tell it".

In real life, when I was a child, my family used to tell me to not tell certain things to the therapist. I wasn't really abused as a child nor my family did anything illegal like drugs, it was just certain details: for example, when I was a child, my mom was loveful and nice but also strict and emotionally unstable; anytime I didn't passed an exam, she got mad; it was so common and intense that my family had to hide brooms, metal bars and wood planks out of fear that my mom wouldn't hurt me. Because I was told by my family to not tell certain things like that, I only told my therapist things like things I did or want to do, or stupid things I did. And also my mom was kinda confused or angry during my childhood or teenage years for "Why don't you progress in your therapy? You're wasting our money!" And also, they told me what things I was "morally mandated" to tell my therapist: That I was not good at school, that I was annoying, unpolite (according their standards), so quiet, shy, and that I didn't passed when I went to the occulist (I currently wear glasses, and during my childhood and preteens, when I didn't passed a test in the occulist, my mom scolded me).

In the dream, I just was silent to my therapist, with a plain face and with anxiety or angst. When I exited, it was my mom waiting for me and we went walking by the streets. She had a blurred or incoherent speech, even saying just random syllabes, and she didn't remember many things I asked to her. I felt very sad or scared in my dream.

What was the reason to consult a terapist, according to yourself, in the first place? Because not evey child with a loving mother visit a terapist

Actually, the family have ordered you to sabotage and frustrate your own healing and, indeed because of that, the mony was wasted!

how many members does the family consist of?

I went to therapy when child because I had learning difficulties. The family who lived in my house when I was a child was my mom, two aunts and one female cousin.

Dream Essence

This dream takes you back to your childhood, placing you as a child again in the familiar but fraught setting of your therapy room. You’re confronted with the figure of your adolescent therapist, who asks if you have something “dark” to share. You reply that your mother doesn’t allow you to talk about certain things, and the therapist encourages you to speak if an adult’s secret is hurtful. The dream then shifts: after the session, your mother waits for you, but her speech is confused and incoherent, and she seems unable to recall basic information. Throughout, you feel silent, anxious, and ultimately sad or scared—emotions that linger as you leave the therapy room and walk with your mother. Your central question seems to be about the meaning of this return to childhood secrecy and the emotional intensity surrounding your mother and therapist.

Dream Archetype​

The Hidden Truth at the Threshold – This dream follows a pattern where a younger self is put in a position to reveal or withhold painful truths in the presence of both an authority figure (the therapist) and a parent who has historically controlled what may or may not be spoken. The setting—an institutional room, a silent child, a questioning adult—repeats a real-life motif of suppressed communication and emotional uncertainty.

Psychological Perspective​

The dream replays the tension between the urge to disclose difficult experiences and the long-standing instruction to keep certain matters hidden. The therapist’s question about “something dark” and her encouragement to break a hurtful secret seem to reflect both what you were told and what you may have wished to hear as a child. Your silence, anxiety, and plain face in the dream echo the pressure to keep quiet and the emotional burden that accompanied it. The presence of your mother—now confused and speaking incoherently—could be a representation of how her authority, once so clear and forceful, now seems less defined or more vulnerable from your current adult perspective. However, the dream does not provide evidence of a wish to accuse or expose, nor does it claim abuse; it seems to focus on the emotional impact of secrecy and the longing for validation. Your reactions in the dream—sadness and fear—suggest that the experience of being unable to speak fully is still emotionally charged.

Symbolic Perspective​

Several images stand out: the therapy room as a container for secrets, the therapist as a possible gatekeeper or protector, and your mother’s incoherent speech as a symbol for confusion, loss of authority, or perhaps the breakdown of strict boundaries. Your silence could symbolise both protection and isolation. The blurred or random speech might also reflect your uncertainty about how to interpret your mother’s actions now, or the sense that communication between you is fundamentally disjointed. The act of walking out onto the street with her after the session underlines the ongoing nature of your relationship—leaving the room does not end the tension.

Connections & Turning Points​

This is not described as a recurring dream, but it revisits a well-established theme from your waking life: being expected to hide certain truths about your emotional or physical safety. You explicitly note that nothing illegal or conventionally abusive occurred, and that your mother was both loving and frighteningly unstable at times. The detail that your family hid objects out of fear distinguishes your experience from more everyday parental strictness. You also highlight a contradiction: you were required to be open about some things (your supposed faults) but silent about others (your mother’s anger and instability). The dream, by placing you in a moment where you are invited—but still unable—to speak, seems to echo this divided experience, and your mother’s confusion in the dream may contrast with her previous authority, possibly reflecting changes in your perception or relationship.

Mystical / Intuitive Perspective​

Seen through a mystical lens, this dream could be interpreted as your inner child seeking permission to voice pain that was never allowed expression. The therapist’s encouragement might symbolise an inner wisdom or guardian figure, inviting you to honour your own feelings and memories. Your mother’s disjointed speech could be read as the fading power of old prohibitions or the dissolution of roles that once silenced you. This is not evidence of a supernatural message, but it may offer a sense of possibility: that the time to speak your truth—even if only to yourself—need not be forever forbidden.

Gentle Guidance​

Dreams like this can stir up old sadness or anxiety, even if the events are safely in the past. If you find that these memories or feelings are troubling or recurring, it’s entirely valid to seek support—from a trusted person or a counsellor—on your own terms. There are also structured approaches, like imagery rehearsal therapy, that can help with distressing dreams if needed. Above all, it is worth remembering that you are not obligated to force disclosure or confrontation; your pace and comfort matter.

Reflection​

When you recall your dream-self’s silence and anxiety, does it feel more like an echo of the past, or does it speak to something still present in your life today? How do you interpret your mother’s confusion and incoherence in the dream—does it suggest a shift in your relationship, or does it evoke something unresolved about communication between you?
