Killer mom

[Enigma13]

I've been having a lot of dreams lately and they have all involved my mom killing people. 1. In the first one she was having a party in our basement andI was upstairs reading. Then she came up with blood all over her and she said "I just killed everybody down there" So I say "What do you mean?" and she respnds "Ssshh, don't worry about it." Later the police came and I woke up. 2. Then in the next dream my mom and dad were assasins and they were hunting my baby sister and I. We ran to hide in a hotel. (This was before I knew about dream signs and I missed an obvious one, the tree outside the window had a face.) Anyway I heard a knock at the apartment door then I woke up. -Does anyone have any idea what this could mean?

Your profile says that you are a student, and so I suppose you are still relatively young. You are perhaps still at an age where you are carrying an idealized conception of your parents, particularly your mother, as perfect beings. These dreams are attempting to correct the distortions of your idealization by perhaps bending the truth a bit in the other direction. So, these dreams are showing you that your mother is capable of nurturing hateful and violent feelings and emotions, against the neighbors and even against you and your siblings. This is all quite necessary. As you become an adult... a real adult, I mean growing into your thirties and fourties, it should be impossible to still relate to Mom and Dad as though you are children. Eventually parents and their middleaged offspring must relate as adult to adult... not as equals, as that will never happen... but each with their eyes wide open and unclouded by any of the delusions residual from childhood, or, from the parents point of view, without the urge to smother with nurturing and protections that are no longer called for.

That's possible, Damn these teen hormones . I figured it meant that my mom is killing me inside since that's what's happening. I can't stand being around her and everytime I hear her voice it's like being stabbed in the chest.

Wow, what is so bad about your mother? My mother can sometimes ask too many questions about me, but she's always been there to help me through anything. I probably would have killed myself by now if it wasn't for her.(yeah, alot of stuff has happened in my life) Enigma, PM me if you want to hear my life story.

That will not last forever... your Mom being so annoying... but it may last a significantly long time. For the longest time my parents could still trigger these adolescent-like outbursts from me, which were so strikingly out of place in my life, that I knew I really had to 'grow up' as far as my parents were concerned. When you are in your 30's or 40's you and your Mom will have to sit down and have a long talk and determine to put an end to the Parent/Child dynamic which probably, by that time, will be driving her about as crazy as it drives you. But much depends upon you doing relatively well in life. If one's Offspring become abject failures in life, primarily because they never listened to any of the wonderful parental suggestions, then there is too much of a temptation for the Parent to never let go of that air of superiority. But if you land on your feet and do well, eventually you will be able to transcend that Parent/Child Dynamic that is so exasperating.
