      Very Strange Nightmares I had when I was 6 years old.

      Just wondering if anyone would be able to interpret this interesting dream/nightmare. I have interpreted dreams for friends and myself, but this one is so strange to me that I cant interpret it at all.

      So I had these nightmares when I was very young, about 6 years old, and I remember them very vividly. They are somewhat difficult to explain though, because they involved emotions and feelings more than visuals. But basically in these dreams, I was very small, and in some kind of giant city or a certain building in it. It was very dark though, and I remember the buildings being so big that it terrified me, they were always gothic/industrial type buildings, and nearly featureless, just flat grey/black coloured. I cant think of much detail of them, but
      anyway, in this world, there was always this feeling that caused me to believe that moving even a fraction of an inch would cause too much of a disturbance. It was as if any movement I made was too big a movement in this place. So it was a very repressing feeling. And also in the dreams, I was either crouched on the floor or curled up in a ball, literally scared by the colossus strange place I was in, where I was not allowed to move or make a sound. Perhaps I was allowed and could do these things but something really was telling me it was a bad idea to try.
      There was no one else in these dreams, nothing other than just these tall gigantic walls, and I don't even remember ceilings, and I guess I was always inside because I don't remember there being a sky either. And nothing was familiar, no normal objects or features you would normally see, literally everything was dark and blank. And it was very quiet. Obviously the main thing that struck me in these dreams was that moving even a finger was a terrifying prospect, like I was terrified to disturb anything in this place.

      Thats pretty much all I can say. I had the dreams a few times at that age, but never again in my life so far. As far as my actual life, nothing traumatising happened around that time in my life, I don't remember being afraid of anything either, I wasn't bullied or abandoned in a strange place lol.
      Ive never forgot about these dreams, but I was reminded recently about them when I was reading one of HP Lovecraft's stories about Cthulhu. Because in this one story, it talked about how all these people had the same terrifying dreams of a strange place that was difficult to understand and even drove some of them crazy because of the strangeness and how terrifying the place was.
      I don't think its really related at all, but still worth mentioning I suppose.

      So yes, if anyone can come up with any ideas, I will be happy to read about them.

      If I were to personally try to decipher this dream I would say that maybe you were afraid of something in real life that was possibly not similar maybe something as trivial as a school building, etc. But since you recall not being afraid of anything or having had any traumatic events I'm not sure. The last thing I could say even though these definitions hardly ever pertain to me is that this is the dream dictionary definition of feeling fear in a dream.

      Fear
      To dream that you feel fear indicates that your achievements will not be as successful as you had anticipated. You are experiencing anxieties in various aspects of your life. The key to overcoming your fear is to discuss them and deal with them openly.

      To dream that you worse fears are coming true signifies your resistance to change. You are afraid to confront the unknown aspects of yourself.
