what makes us dream those outragease dreams?

Question

i mean like fishing in your bath robe

Answer 1

To understand a dream, it’s helpful to keep in mind why and how we dream. When we sleep, the body and perception systems are shut down, but the brain remains active. The brain thinks about what has recently been most active during waking hours—experiences, thoughts and feelings accessed recently whether consciously or not. The brain is still active, so it works on this content, but not in a familiar, rational way. During sleep, this material is not related using input from the external real world, but rather by the brain connections already established in the cortex. So the story connectedness isn’t like everyday experience, but rather a strange, circuitous flow from one image to the next. So dreams aren’t magical messages to guide our life, but dream imagery is taken from everyday experiences, thoughts and feelings that matter most to us during our waking life. So it’s a mistake to apply standard symbol definitions, such as Freudian meanings or standard “dreammoods” symbols. All you need to do is think about what kind of imagery it is and how it relates to your daily life.

The bottom line: the image sequences in dreams seem outrageous because they aren't stimulated by the constant familiar real world around us.

Answer 2

Often I find that my most outrageous dreams come from unresolved issues I have while waking. Often when I have these vivid dreams I tell them to my wife and she asks me things like, "How did it make you feel to be fishing or to be in your bathrobe." Or, "How did you feel while in the dream." Often once I express my feelings I see that there's something in my life that mirrors those same feelings. Like, I'm having trouble finding an answer to something- or I feel insecure.

Answer 3

Fishing in your bathrobe would mean you are enjoying yourself without a care.
