Eating rubber bands occurs when the mind processes the tension between a need for control and the inherent elasticity of a current situation. The brain rehearses the management of forces that bind things together yet carry a sudden, snapping energy. This dream suggests that the dreamer is attempting to internalize or digest a temporary method of restraint that is not meant to be permanent.
The psychological mechanism involves testing how much pressure a system can withstand before it loses its utility. When a person tries to consume these objects of tension, the brain is often working through the discomfort of a situation that requires both firmness and the ability to stretch. Trying to sustain this artificial flexibility creates a heavy strain that weighs upon the dreamer. A loss of composure or a sudden break in this process signals that the current way of maintaining order has become unsustainable. This effort to hold everything in place drains the dreamer. There is a capacity to find a more natural rhythm once the artificiality of these constraints is recognized.
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
