Suicide pact dream.

A few months ago I had this dream. It was incredibly vivid, but I attribute that to me taking melatonin regularly at the time. Anyways, here it is:

In this dream I'm with 3 other people (1 woman and 2 asian men). We're all dressed in formal attire. I'm in a white button up shirt tucked into a pair of black pants, a black tie, and oxford shoes. The men are both wearing suits and the woman is wearing a black dress. We're all sitting cross legged in a circle on the floor of a hotel room with grey carpet. The woman gets up and returns with 4 styrofoam cups filled with water, a white plastic spoon, and a plastic bag filled with sodium nitrite. She pours some of the sodium nitrite into each cup and stirs it, then hands a cup to each of us, taking the last herself. We all drink the mixture and wait for a few minutes. The rest of the group engages in small talk, but I don't say anything. Eventually I get up and go to a fridge, returning with a carton of chocolate milk. I offer it to the group, but nobody wants any so we resume sitting in silence, then I wake up.

It's largely nonsensical, but I found it incredibly distressing at the time. If anyone has any thoughts on this I'd be interested in hearing them. Thanks in advance.

• In your dream, the formal attire and sitting in a circle signify unity and preparedness for a significant transition.
• The choice of sodium nitrite, a preserving agent, suggests a desire to halt something, possibly a situation or emotion, from further change or decay.
• Your act of standing up and offering chocolate milk, a comforting and nurturing symbol, indicates an inherent resilience and a subconscious refusal to succumb to despair.

This dream may reflect your deep-seated need for change, but more importantly, it underscores your innate ability to offer hope and sustenance, even in the bleakest circumstances. It suggests that while you may feel surrounded by irreversible situations, your role is to introduce an element of care and transformation, ultimately steering the narrative toward healing and recovery.

When you get a dream you do not understand you need to try to establish connections with real life - you need to make ASSOCIATIONS. Then once you have made associations then you can start to see which thought or emotion the dream captures. Here are some associations you could look for.

1. SMALL TALK. Do you remember someone trying to engage in small talk. Think especially of the day before - the dream may link to some conversation that has stuck in your mind.
2. Styrofoam Cups. What does this make you think about? They are easy to use and disposable. Think of any connection? An association is that they could be something disposable - if you had a thought which connected to that then that could be an association. Its probably difficult to tell right now as time has passed by and dreams are in the here and now - they are often symbolic versions of a conceptual thought or feeling.
3. FORMAL DRESS. Did you wear formal dress the night before? Did someone else wear formal dress?
4. THREE PEOPLE The dream features three people. That could be a wordplay on the word FREE (THREE = FREE). That could link to any issue involving freedom to choose. Think of any way in which you may use the word FREEDOM. Think of events from the night before. If for instance you thought "I am free to say exactly what I want" then that could be a strong association.
5. SUBSTANCES. The sodium nitrate is some kind of substance. Did you take any substances the night before?

Think of any connection to real life. Also try this page DISTURBING DREAMS. If the dream left you feeling disturbed then it is likely that something triggered it which was disturbing. Then if something recent happened then the dream could link to that subject. In that way you can look to the trigger of the dream and then try to see how the dream symbolism works. Its quite simple if something was disturbing you the night before then thats linked to the meaning of the dream.
