thanks for taking the time to read this post...

anyways...i dreamed that my mom and dad switched houses [they're divorced, by the way..], and my dad wanted to take us to the lake, so my mom dropped us off at his house....everyone's talking for a while then i fell asleep on the couch all of a sudden, meaning i fell asleep in the dream...then i woke up in the dream and i was smoking a cigarette filter, and i ran to the bathroom to look into the mirror out of instinct, and my teeth were horribly rotten and yellow, and disguisting...suddenly, i ran outside, and my mom was there, even though in the dream, she'd left a little after i went to sleep, and i ran up to the driver's side of the car, and said "mom, i really have to talk to you, i had a horrible dream!" and i noticed that she was dead before the whole dream faded into darkness...

o o;' thanks in advanced for anyone who can help me with this dream...

Swapping one familiarity for another, you're within your comfort zone.  Dreaming that you're asleep indicates you are very tired, or you're having a toxic dream, which links with the cigarette you're smoking, there is some kind of emotional toxicity in your life.

The bathroom usually represents the "mind, body and spirit" aspects, and the teeth itself is your own overall being.  By looking in the mirror, you're seeing something within yourself that you feel are decaying and in the bathroom you either wash that decay away or refresh the wholeness of yourself, you have a choice in what you can do.  

I'm not entirely sure about your mother being dead, and this confuses me somewhat.  A mother is a caregiver, and by being dead, it's the end of her role, situation or phase.  Are you a caregiver, do you give so much of your time to other people and feeling resentful about that?  Are you at the stage where you feel you can no longer continue giving and want that role to stop?  The car is a vehicle in which you can move forwards in life, by having a dead mother in the car, it signals in order to go forwards in life, you have to stop the phase you're in and start anew.

Does anything make any sense?

it does make sence, but i think i get what the care giver being dead thing means then...i just turned 18, meaning that i'm basically completely alone now...if i want to stay in my dad's house, i have to pay rent, pay for food, help with bills, etc....thanks for helping though, it was really freaking me out...

turns out that something else happened a few days after i had the dream...family problems...so we were right, i lost a caregiver...my mom's suddenly gone missing ._.;'

weird how nothing ever seems to work out the way we think it will, huh?...
