I had this nightmare a couple of nights ago, but I scared the living daylights out of me, so I am going to share it with you. Of course, this was mostly scary because as I was dreaming it, it felt like it was actually happening to me, so you might read it and go "... meh"
I was in my old apartment with my sister, one that was tiny and on a 5th floor and had only the one, paper thin door to exit through, and into a very narrow corridor. For some reason, we were already scared and running/hiding from something or someone. I hadn't been disturbed by the dream up to this point so I can't remember much of what happened until then.
As we were starting to calm down, I hear a fumbling at the door. Not a banging, but, like someone trying to open it or something else. So I sneak over to it and look through the peep hole only to find some average yet creepy looking figure standing there. I freak out and lean against the door, telling my sister that there was someone out there. Then I suddenly hear more noises, and the door starts to budge a little. So I look out the peep hole again... and there are more people out there! Like 5 more. And now they are all trying to get the door open. I start yelling frantically at my sister to come and help, and to hide the dogs (idek) and every time I look back out there are more and more creepy looking figures outside! I woke up when the door was starting to give, completely terrified.

i don't know about your relationship with your sister, but if you have a good, friendly, close relationship to her, it sounds to me like you're trying to protect your inner self from overwhelming forces or aspects of your life...this would explain why you wanted her to hide the dogs (the dogs are something that you care for, that are completely dependent on you, and that are vulnerable to harm if you don't protect them). i would say that you, your sister, and the dogs are all symbolic of some part of you that you want to protect, and the people outside the door (the very flimsy door) are something you're trying to protect yourself from, and it's getting more and more difficult because the door is already flimsy, and they're multiplying.
lol if i had this dream, i'd attribute it to the stress of procrastination. i'm trying to keep my mental health, but because i let small responsibilities fester and become big problems, my mental health is more and more at risk.
idk, just a thought.
