First of all, I think the worst possible condition would be to have lock-jaw, because that is NOT a fun feeling. In the dream, I'm always panicking and trying to get someone to help me but no one can understand me because I can't move my jaw to speak! In the dream I had last night, I tried to hard so shut my jaw that all my teeth started getting loose. I had to run to the bathroom sink and scoop them all out of my mouth.
Weird, right??
Well I looked it up to see if google had some insight into my subconscious. Most sources claim that this dream stems from anxiety about your physical appearance or about others' perceptions of you. It could also mean you are doubting your abilities or feeling unprepared for whatever task is about to be performed. I suppose I can go with that. I also discovered that the Greeks have a different interpretation of this dream- apparently this means a close relative is very sick or close to death. I think I'll go with the first interpretation, please!
Anyway, I hope this dream is not going to be a recurring one like it has been in the past. If so, I would really appreciate it if I could dream up a dentist as well.
I would also like to add that as I was about to submit this entry, I glanced over to my right just in time to notice that my sharks tooth had fallen out of my wallet and is lying on my desk. Coincidence?
Did you really write this at 3am? Also I'm hoping the first interpretation is right too!
ReplyDeletehahaha i love it! I'm personally paranoid that I'll end up with TMJ or a permanently locked jaw. you know you're in nursing school when...
ReplyDeleteDon't worry- I did not write this at 3am! It was at 6am! I need to figure out how to fix the time on here!!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, nursing school has definitely brought out the worst of my paranoia!!
