Hi, I was wondering if someone could answer me this. I had another dream last night that's made me wonder again.
I often have dreams where I'm afraid of staircases. When I see them in my dreams, I'm afraid they'll collapse or break under me.
I remember this one dream where I was in the cafeteria at my high school, and there were some stairs coming down from the ceiling like the ladder to an attic. And a lot of classmates were going up there. I wanted to go up there, too, but I wasn't quite able to reach the steps. I had to jump to catch them, but the ladder broke and I fell back down. A lot of people saw this and I was pretty embarrassed.
Another dream I had involved a large tower that went way up into the sky. And it had a winding staircase around it with a small ceiling overhead so that I had to stay hunched over as I climbed up the tower with my little brother. I hated those stairs so much but I kept going anyway. The tower would always sway when the wind blew and I was terrified of falling. More than once I almost fell and went over the edge, but I managed to hang on at the last moment.
There were other instances, too, but these two are the ones I remember most right now. The one I had last night was pretty simple and just involved me going down a flight of stairs in one of the buildings of my college campus. None of these staircases ever have rails or support. This staircase was wobbly and I remember being scared of it breaking as I made my way down.
There was more to it that also involved a friend, but I woke up later and explained it to her, only to realize my fear of stairs was in it yet again. So now I'd like to find out why I have this fear of stairs collapsing in my dreams, and what it might mean.
