I had a terrible dream two nights ago where I dreamt that I was dead. I have no idea how I died and I looked the same as I do now but in my dream, I was walking around but no one could see, hear, touch, talk to me. I could see, hear, talk, etc but no one could hear me or see me. It was like I wasn't there. I am assuming that it was my spirit that was walking around and I tried everything to get people's attention but nothing worked. I kept trying to comfort my 7 yr old daughter who was crying uncontrollably. She was walking around with a lost look on her face, holding her stuffed zebra. She just kept crying and everyone was ignoring her and if they did interact with her, they were not being nice to her and it angered me. I felt so helpless because I kept trying to hug her and talk to her but she couldn't see or hear me. My family members and her dad (who doesn't have much affiliation with her except for maybe two weeks out of the year) were arguing about who was going to have to take her. No one wanted her. It was terrible. I felt so bad for leaving her. My heart broke. I could do nothing. When I woke up, all I wanted to do was hold my daughter. I woke up crying. It was awful. She was so alone and so hurt and lost. Does anyone have any idea what this means?

Hi looking4proof. That does sound horrible.

It sounds like you feel that your needs are being ignored or that you don't have any control over something.

Is there anything going on in your life that involves a decision about your daughter?

If not, your daughter might represent a vulnerable part of yourself or a part of yourself that needs to be nurtured and developed. The fact that no one wanted your daughter might mean that you feel that no one wants or needs you.
