Dreaming of being trapped means you are stuck in an unfulfilled job or relationship that everyday you are wishing to get out and never see the same people again. Going through the same routines daily will make anyone feel trapped. It is your responsibility to mix it up by taking a vacation and planning special events rather than heading home to watch television, sleep and restart the day with the same daily grind.
Trapped in a dream signifies that the individual is overwhelmed by their negative thoughts and emotions from which they cannot escape from on their own. They feel burdened by pain, anguish or sadness.
Some people are more likely to have this dream about being trapped than others. Younger people are more likely to feel stuck in their life or their job and might also see it in their dreams as well. Older people can suffer from this feeling if they’re no longer enjoying what they do for work or feel like retirement will put them into an uncharted territory with limited resources for which there is no map and no ability for them to plan ahead for the future.
You are no longer in control when trapped. Do you remember who or what is holding you back? Lift this burden of being trap with the help of your friends and family.
I have dreams that I am stuck/trapped. The other night it was a box I was stuck in, I was fighting my way out and woke the whole house up screaming.
Last night I was trapped somewhere dark i cannot remember much apart from being trapped but able to see a tiny gap of light (this I think is something to do with not pulling my window blind all the way down last night and leaving an inch gap which would let light in in the morning)
these dreams are very scary and I shout in my sleep calling my partner for help. What is wrong with me? Do I have a sleep disorder?
