Owen SterlingRunning mad in a dream shows the mind working through a sudden break in the composure that usually holds a person together. The brain uses this movement to rehearse what happens when the structures used to control behavior fail to withstand the weight of what is occurring. The dream captures the transition from a managed state to one where the mechanisms of self-governance are temporarily bypassed.
The experience of this loss of composure often signals that the dreamer is navigating a period where the usual methods of holding things together are being tested by overwhelming circumstances. This process of breaking through outward composure provides a space to encounter the raw intensity of an impulse or an emotion without the interference of social or personal inhibitions. The dreamer finds a way to acknowledge the volatility that exists beneath the surface of a composed life. It is a way for the mind to integrate the reality of its own limits.
For its more general meaning: Dream about going crazy
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.
