I have a completely layman theory that that’s what dreams are. Worn out pathways that our ego or consciousness is not letting through to us, but are being used in our subconscious, being able to manifest themselves finally. That’s why we can see things that are bothering us or on our mind in the background there

It’s recently suggested there is nothing special about dreaming - its just a confluence of himan interpretation with a mechanism to stop you from going blind.

When I went to a therapist and we went to analyze my dreams it got weird how many details and meanings one could find there
