Dreaming of Itching: Case Analysis of Itching
[Dream Example 1]
I was invited to see a show with three roommates. We sat on a long chair, but soon they all started tickling me. I couldn’t stand the itch, so I woke up to relieve the pain. Interestingly, I felt completely lucid, knowing it was a dream and waking up when I couldn’t stand it. How strange. In the past, my conscious mind always knew it was a dream.

[Dream Example 2]
My girlfriend dreamed last night that she had small bumps and itchy bumps on her body. Then I squeezed the pimple. After squeezing, I saw a worm. I pulled it out, and out came a long white worm. My body was covered with small, bug-filled pimples.
Dream Interpretation: According to Freud’s theory in “The Interpretation of Dreams,” dreams represent “wish fulfillment.” In the chapter “The Work of Dreams,” he discusses some symbolic imagery. For example, if a woman dreams of being entangled by small insects, it generally means she wishes to become pregnant. A long white worm symbolizes the male sex. This is Freud’s theory regarding “sexual dreams.” While its applicability is questionable, since your girlfriend’s dream exhibits these characteristics, you might want to ask her about it in a subtle way. Some “wish fulfillment” that does not conform to traditional concepts will be expressed in dreams through disguise, which is why some dreams are full of anxiety.
