a weird dream... what does it mean?

ok so last night when I was sleeping I had this really wierd dream. I was at work and I was being rude to a customer and I had to go to the washroom. when I come out I get arrested...I get put into jail and then am relesed. after I get out of jail I become really depressed and start cutting myself in my dream. the scary thing is that it felt so real and it hurt just as if I was cutting in real life. when I woke up I had to cheak my arm to see if I didnt really do it... what does this dream mean or am I just really wanting to cut?

From dreammoods.com:

To dream that you are cutting yourself, indicates that you are experiencing some overwhelming turmoil or problems in your waking life. You are trying to disconnect yourself from the unbearable pain you are experiencing.

I've had a lot of these dreams as well. I hope this helped.

well i agree with the previous post about the cutting. but the early part of your dream i have a few opinions about. i think your subconcious is telling you that you shouldn't be being rude to a certain person, or it might be that you are forgetting you basic values and they are being portrayed as politeness and since you had a lack there of, you went to jail and became depressed. in a way your dream may be telling you how to help yourself, by reinstilling your basic values.
hope that helped
