anxiety dreams.

[pico]

i've been having many dreams filled with anxiety lately, i think because i've been having problems in my relationship.

i need help, please.

so last night, i dreamt i was seeing a movie with a few friends, one of which i haven't seen in months because he left the country to visit family over the summer. i was trying to make myself a cup of coffee for the movie and the coffee stand had many different creamers to use and they all had really pretty art on each of the small containers. i picked one small, rounded, dark pale blue one that looked like it had the face of the moon on the top wrapper part, and another taller one that was pinkish and said "love" or something like that on it. i poured them both into my coffee and mixed it up, but because i had waited so long it took a while to mix.
when i sat back down, i was talking with my friend who i hadn't seen in a while and he looked at me for a moment and then kissed my cheek a couple times. i gave him a slightly horrified, but mostly "what do you think you're doing?" look, and he instantly apologized remembering that i had a boyfriend.

i don't remember how it transitioned, but suddenly i was in my worst enemy's house. she and i fought over my boyfriend about 8 months ago, just before my boyfriend and i started dating. she had many people over at her house and my boyfriend was there, and he was going around kissing many girls' cheeks; it seemed like a large theme of my dream.
i started talking to my enemy to try to mend things (lately i've been having dreams where i'm talking to her trying to have closure, i suppose; leave us on good terms) and she started to cry saying something about my boyfriend. she told me she's been waiting and waiting for us to break up so she and him can finally be together. i told her we're very deeply in love and neither of us plan on leaving each other soon. she led me to her room which was full of blankets and pillows; you simply couldn't see the floor, it was all covered in layers of thick blankets. she layed down and i sat next to her and we discussed my boyfriend and somewher ein the conversation i woke up.

if food is any issue here, i had two cheese enchiladas for dinner and i often get scary, axiety-type dreams after having a cheese-ridden meal.

can someone help analyze this for me?

Hi,

get scary, axiety-type dreams after having a cheese-ridden meal.
if food is any issue here, i had two cheese enchiladas for dinner and i often

The above dream seems like a typical dream caused by indigestion! The subconscious creates a long drawn out emotionally loaded dream that takes your mind off the discomfort indigestion causes.
Have a slice of toast with just a bit of butter on on it if you hungry befare bed! Everyone should avoid cheese before bedtime!
I'm sorry I can't help you with your lovelife. I never had girls fighting over me!

To clarify are you dreaming that you are anxious or do you wake up feeling anxious?

Dreams may be impacted by indigestion and such but that does not mean your unconscious is not at work trying to point you into a direction of greater awareness of who you are.

Your gut is telling you that this dream is related to your problems with your relationship. Might I sagest the dream indicates that the “issue” may be your thinking and feelings about relationship in general?

The characters in this dream are not your outside life “friends” or your “enemy” but your unconscious thoughts and feelings you have as you relate to these friends and enemy relationships.
Relationships are tough as we tend to project our worst (enemy) and best (friend) aspects of ourselves on to those we care about the most. Your dream seems to be suggests a way for you to pull back your projections (own your projections) and in that way establish a healthier relationship in the outside world.
