Journaling my dreams was not a very easy thing for me to do. I tend to not remember my dreams, so it took a lot of hard work for me to correctly recollect them. The reason I chose this dream to analyze was because I found it so strange and completely untrue. The truth about how I felt about my mother and how she treated me was nothing close to my dream. That is why I actually enjoyed analyzing it and getting down to the truth of what it really meant.
The first thing I distinctly remember from my dream is my mother. She seemed to be drunk or not interested in her surroundings.

After analyzing my dream based on these three perspectives, I found it very easy to decide which perspective is the most valid for analyzing my dream. The Psychoanalytic Perspective by Freud made the most sense to me.

This could very easily explain why our dreams may seem weird and strange to us, but actually hold some truth when looked at from this
