Cause💤#
I went to bed around three o'clock last night, which is quite rare for me to stay up this late. I usually wake up at eight in the morning, so my sleep time is about 5-6 hours. I started feeling sleepy after 10 o'clock, and I fell asleep around 12:30. Now I've woken up, and it's already 1:50. During those two and a half hours of sleep, I must have been in subconscious sleep because I remember dreaming (not sure how to explain it). After waking up, I wrote this article, which I should be able to finish in about half an hour to an hour, so the timing adds up. I dreamt that I was fishing on a boat with a small fishing hook, and I caught a freshwater fish. Then, in another dream, I was singing loudly against the wind on a ridge (I forgot the song). Finally, it seems I was discussing camera and photography issues with two content creators (the tooth loss happened during this part), and the scene took place on my way to school when I was a child. All of this is quite contradictory, but I feel much better than I did in the morning.
Dream Analysis💭#
The following interpretations are provided for the dream about losing teeth (from Dream Pavilion, seems AI-generated, just look at the conclusion):
Manifestation of subconscious desires:
According to Freud's interpretation, losing teeth in dreams may reflect desires in the subconscious. Freud believed that teeth in dreams often represent sexual symbols, particularly male sexual symbols. Therefore, losing teeth may suggest desires related to sex or sexual anxiety.
Fear and conflict in dream elements:
The element of losing teeth in dreams may express an individual's fears and conflicts. Teeth are part of our confidence and appearance, so losing teeth may trigger fears about appearance and self-image. Additionally, losing teeth may also imply fears of losing power or control, as teeth play an important role in chewing and biting.
Interaction of the ego, id, and superego:
In dreams of losing teeth, the interaction of the ego, id, and superego may be as follows:
Ego: The ego is part of an individual's consciousness and perception of reality. In dreams, the ego may feel the fear and anxiety of losing teeth.
Id: The id is part of an individual's subconscious and desires. Losing teeth may represent sexual desires in the id, or it may reflect desires related to self-image and power.
Superego: The superego is part of an individual's morality and rationality. In dreams of losing teeth, the superego may generate feelings of guilt or self-blame, as losing teeth may be seen as a destruction of self-image.
Relationship between sex and dreams:
In Freud's theory, sex is often symbolically expressed in dreams. Losing teeth may symbolize sex, particularly male sexual symbols.
Regarding sex, Freud often mentioned this in dream analysis, so turning it around to translate, we often say that teeth have an aggressive nature (primitive), and losing them indicates that I am impotent, not really :)). But in reality, I might have 🦌 too much. Recently, the source of my anxiety isn't because I have 🦌 too much (actually, I am really very restrained; anxiety is the main factor leading to staying up late). I might have become anxious due to work or certain psychological setups, but there is a significant generational gap with my parents, and as an only child, I deeply understand this. Many times, I prefer to write in my physical meaning: on paper notebooks. Recently, I've been busy and under a lot of pressure, so I haven't written in my notebook. My time at home is mostly spent playing games, while other tasks like cooking, doing housework, and taking out the trash are hard for me to complete. My mind is always occupied with work-related matters, and I need to rest. I keep lying to myself that playing games is enough. In reality, being in a constantly repressed state will definitely lead to problems.
Summary✍️#
If losing teeth signifies a warning that I am about to lose something important, then I will definitely choose to rest earlier; this feeling is too terrible. Singing in the wind seems like I am shouting in resistance; about what? I know this, but I’ll leave it unsaid, and I won’t write it in my notebook either. Of course, you clever ones must have guessed: 😂👉 I’m about to wilt.
