Hi, I don't normally post my dreams, but this one was so strange.
For some reason my T is having me provide daycare for his daughter around 2yrs old. (his real daughter is 19) She is a sweet girl, smart , but she looks like her mother (his wife).For some reason my T shows up to my house (older house) and is looking around my living room before I get to the room. Well I discoverd after he left, that my daughter took out all the pictures of my mother(I don't have any in real life) and put them up all over the place, plus my husbands weird artwork is all over.
I am worried because my house looks like a shrine for my mother. (and all this country cowboy stuff, that is not my style at all, but her's)I am worried that he is going to think I have lying about my mother, that I really like her or something.
Then another thing, I was sitting on the floor with my T and his daughter, and I go to put her on the floor to sit by herself because you shouldn't hold kids all the time, and he didn't like that I wasn't holding his daughter.
Okay, I am not sure what dream means, if anything, and why we dream, but I thought I would share. Does this mean anything at all?

wow, that is a therapist's dream.. nothing to decifer there! Joking of course. Dreams are so subjective even when they appear obvious. To me it seems like you might be the two year old that does not want to be put down or let go by your T.... ?? Maybe the stuff about your mother is an attempt to convince yourself you really need more therapy...
i don't really believe there is one answer, or a right answer. Dreams are stuff to think about but there really isn't anyway to be sure of what it meant.
i am the queen of freaky dreams believe me. i dream like whole movies...plots and everything.

Hi Happyflower,
I'm imagining that this is my dream and how I would interpret it. I'm using *you* just because I haven't ended therapy and it'll get my brain confused more than it all ready is. So here goes.
Maybe the two-year-old represents that part of you that was dependent on your T. You realize that she doesn't need to be held all the time: you know you will be okay on your own now that therapy has ended. Your T thinking his daughter needs to be held might be that you want him to feel some kind of emotional closeness to you.
The house looking like a shrine to your mother might be that you are afraid that your T never really believed how much you do not want to be like her?

Thanks gazo,
I don't know much about dreams either but I have seen such interesting interpetations, I thought I would put one up on the boards.
I realize they can be subjective but I am open for suggestions, LOL
I just thought it was bizarre especially since his daughter has his wife's face. Weird, but then it would go into a little girls face.Thanks for responding, I hope you feel better today. I think your emotions are completely very understandable. (((gazo))))

Wow, thanks Poet,
This is very interesting and the stuff you said does make a lot of sense. Do you see any signifigance to having his wife face on the face of the child? This stuff is so interesting, I wish I knew more about dream interpertation.

I think the little child represents someone he is allowed to be close to - his child, his wife, etc. The part of you that he was close to, too. Although since you were babysitting, it tells me that you know somehow that you can't be with his family, or him, all the time.
The journey to your old house seems to be into your past. And the shrine to your mom I think is th part that has been left in you - good or bad -- but is now part of your past. I do agree with Poet and Gazo that you seem to be unsure that your therapist is going to believe how bad it was with your mom. But since her pictures are in your old house, maybe her influence is staying there too.
I have no clue about your husband's weird artwork. Possibly quirks to your life together or something sexual being represented. Anything you want to tell us?? :)

Thanks Daisy,
You have some wonderful insites on this stuff. I would have never have seen the stuff everyone else have. But I guess sometimes it is better to get a more objective view then the one we have of ourselves.
My husbands artwork tends to be abstract and very dark, I find it depressing a lot of times.

Hi Happyflower,
I'm not sure about his wife's face being on his daughter. Maybe that his wife gets to stay with him, and since therapy is ending you don't?
