According to Rahul Jandial, PhD, an American neurosurgeon, nightmares about school days and exams in adults may be a sign of fear of evaluation and judgment. In this respect reports Daily Mail edition.
The expert said nightmares often reflect anxiety and depression in daily life. According to Jandial, dreams give people the mental ability to develop flexibility in thinking, emotion and instinct. The expert describes this positive effect as “the gift of self-knowledge.”
Moreover, the situations a person experiences in a dream may not be directly related to real life. To interpret nightmares correctly, the neurosurgeon recommends writing them down immediately after waking up and highlighting the main emotion experienced throughout the dream. Examples of such emotions include anger, fear, rage, and anxiety.
It is noted that the meaning of dreams does not require special elaboration. A student’s nightmare of failing the exam the day before is directly related to the stress caused by a particular event. But some adults also often have unpleasant dreams about their school and college days. According to Jandial, such dreams often reflect a sense of fear of being evaluated or criticized by others. In this case, the exam is merely a symbol of any situation in which one could potentially be evaluated.
