Being strangled and tickle tortured

Date: 5/12/2022

I was going to a gala or some kind of event at a complex with two other girls. Can't remember who they were. One was well known and was leading me and the other girl around. We stumbled across a class. They sat down so I sat down. I was looking for the girls and noticed they disappeared. I was becoming nervous because what was I doing at this class why did they sit down and then disappear. I dont know where to go if I get up. I had bad social anxiety, it was also an important event and didn't want to embarrass myself. As a result I sat timid and stiff and watched the lesson. I kept dropping my things as a result of fidgeting from the extreme anxiety I was having. A handsome guy behind me gave me a notebook and said, here you're supposed to do the assignment on this. I said, well I'm actually probably not a part of this class and I missed what the assignment was due to me being a klutz. People were starting to turn their papers in and leaving. He was starting to flirt w me, but his group was waiting. Before he left he came up to me and gave me a piece of paper with his number and was about to tell me his name and ask me out. I was about to grab the paper when somebody reached behind me and covered my eyes and put their arm around my throat. I was tugged into another... dimension? Dream? Another place? I recieved a kind of like download to my brain about the guy who was doing this and who he was and that I had a relationship with him. He was a well known rapper in the dream, not irl. And he kept doing this while going on some weird rant about something for several minutes. I did not listen as i was too scared and shocked. And time flew before my eyes as I saw this relationship progress like a montage. And it finally fell on an event. The guy was drunk or high or both it seemed. I was lying on cold tile. He was sitting slumped a bit aways. This is when the sleep paralysis starts. He crawls towards me. He retrains me and start to tickle torture me. I manage to notice any noise or reaction to it before I can pull myself out of the dream and can move my body. After I pull myself out my head feels like a brick and it is completely engulfed in a migraine. I'm disoriented and not aware of my surroundings.

AI generated interpretation In this dream, the themes of anxiety, powerlessness, and vulnerability are prominent. The initial setting of going to a gala or event with other girls, feeling lost and confused when they disappear, and experiencing social anxiety all point towards feelings of insecurity and a fear of embarrassment in a social setting. The dream may be reflecting your feelings of inadequacy or self-doubt in real life situations where you may fear judgment or scrutiny from others. The interaction with the handsome guy offering you a notebook and trying to flirt with you could symbolize a desire for acceptance and validation from others, particularly in romantic or social contexts. However, the sudden intrusion of being strangled and tickle tortured suggests a sense of being overwhelmed and overpowered by external forces, possibly representing feelings of vulnerability and helplessness in the face of unexpected challenges or threats. The revelation of a relationship with the well-known rapper and the montage of the relationship progressing could signify deep-seated fears or unresolved emotions related to intimacy and past relationships. The tickle torture in the dream may symbolize a fear of being emotionally or physically vulnerable with someone, and the sleep paralysis at the end could indicate a sense of being trapped or unable to escape from a distressing situation. Overall, this dream may be reflecting your inner fears, anxieties, and subconscious thoughts about social interactions, relationships, and feelings of powerlessness. It may be helpful to explore these themes further in waking life through introspection, journaling, or talking to a therapist to gain a deeper understanding of your fears and concerns.
