What are your recurring dreams? Can anyone interpret mine?

I have a recurring dream that I’m trying to lock the door but it won’t lock.

It’s quite scary because usually there is an intruder and I’m desperately trying to lock the door. It’s never the same door, sometimes it’s my old house, sometimes my current one. Front and back doors. Sometimes the door is too small for the space altogether. Other times the key just keeps turning.

Sometimes I’m trying to use a public toilet and none of the cubicles have doors or the doors are too small or won’t lock.

Other recurring dreams are trying to make an emergency call and I keep failing the wrong number.

Not being able to find somewhere, such as leaving my family in a shop then the shop has disappeared.

What mood do you wake up in. That will be a mood you are suppressing. Find out what it’s linked to in your awake time and talk it out.

Those sound like classic anxiety dreams. They're very common.You're trying to do something or get somewhere and things/people/events keep stopping you and you get more and more agitated in the dream, then you're relieved when you wake up that it's not real. It's probably stress-related.
I had a recurring dream about my wedding for months before I got married. Exactly the same every time, I was trying to get dressed, and do my hair and make-up and be ready by 12 midday, but everything was holding me up!
I'd be roped in to wash my flower girl's hair, then something else needed sorting, then I couldn't do the buttons up on my dress, but every time I asked my mum/sister/random family member to help me, they couldn't hear or see me. Just walked past me like i was a ghost 😂Then I'd be getting more and more frantic as midday got nearer, and then I'd wake up sweating.
I never had it after I got married. Mind you, we're divorced now, maybe I should have taken more notice of it at the time!
