There is some symbolic meaning to dreaming about someone giving you the defibrillator shock. It means feeling a surge of new life and starting over fresh when things get hard in your dream. You might regret that it’s not close enough to reality: getting a jump on challenges feels great, but the far-away feeling afterwards is hard to shake off.
For many people who feel stuck and burnt out in their careers after years of being stagnant in the same place, defibrillator dreams provide a fresh start. Those who dream about zapping themselves with one often wake up feeling refreshed and ready to cheer themselves on to conquer the world.
