Attacked

Dreams of being attacked typically represent feelings of being attacked emotionally in our waking lives. If we are able to identify the attacker in our dreams, we will learn who-or what-is causing us the distress. Other common attack dreams-a man or woman being chased by males at night, someone shooting you or attacking you with a knife-may reflect literal fears of violence or vulnerability. If you are attacked and are unable to defend yourself, this reflects a feeling of powerless against whomever or whatever your attacker represents. Attackers may also represent internal struggles-"battles" with drug, alcohol, or food addictions, for example, that a person "just can't beat." Attackers may also represent social pressures to conform.
