Can Anyone Tell what This Means?

Hello,

Well, These dreams have been in my mind for weeks now but I can't figure out at all what they mean.
Can Anyone help me out?

Dream One (What I can remember of it): I'm in a mental hospital with scars from cutting myself on my arms. I keep trying to tell everyone that I did it because it made me happy and nobody is listening. Then I get some sharp object & start cutting when nobody is looking. & I was happy? (I woke up at this point)

Second Dream (It was like I was watching a TV show, it wasn't connected much to me): A Little girl with cuts all over her arms is begging this woman to kill her. This woman then agrees and makes this big gash in her shoulder. & the rest of the dream consisted of her trying not to let someone know. (the little girl didn't die BTW)

I know these are disturbing (at least they are to me). I don't cut myself & I don't know anyone who does BTW. Just in case you were wondering.

Cutting is usually a coping mechanism for when someone is trying to avoid feeling emotions. It is a way to numb you of pain(emotionally) becuase you just focus on the physical pain.
My question for you is Are you going through anything right now that would cause you to avoid confronting your emotions?

not that i can think of.
But lately I've been trying to pretend I'm not mad when I am, since whenever I am mad it makes situations worse.
Could That Be It?
Thanks!

that is highly possible. there has also been an addition to the dream dictionary about cutting. after seeing your dream i requested it to be added. it is pretty good. check it out.
