Society denies all but the most intense traumas and minimises the rest

Society denies all but the most intense traumas and minimises the rest; most of us do the same with our dreams. In this vein, we believe we had a happy, non-traumatic childhood; these are the same of us who wish us “sweet dreams” at night.




Both involve the repetition compulsion. We compulsively replicate our unresolved traumas in an attempt to heal them. Likewise, we often have repeats of the same dreams – or dream themes.

Both rupture the borders of our personality. Traumatic experiences force their way through the psyche like a nail through a board, whereas dreams are the psyche’s attempt to pull the nail out of the board.

As such, both involve the essence of our life’s process. Traumatic experiences destroy life; dreams hope to reclaim it.
