This is someone else's account of a dream that they would like to know what it means:

There was a great chasm in the ground and hundreds of people were walking towards it, and going to throw themselves into it to commit suicide. I was one of them and as I shuffled towards the edge with everyone else, I suddenly thought 'I don't want to do this, I don't want to go through with it'. But there seemed no way out.

Then I found myself at the bottom of the chasm, and somehow I had escaped death but had to stay at the bottom and slit the throats of anyone who survived the leap. I was covered in mud and thinking to myself 'what is the point of staying alive by killing other people when that means that I am just left down here on my own for evermore?'

Two additional facts:
- I have just finished reading Primo Levi's 'If this is a Man'.
- I am doing a horrendously busy job, which I feel trapped in.
