freud would say something really nasty about that. i hate freudian psych, it's such garbage.
What would Freud say about my brother and I having the same dream?


well his whole views were sexual tension and conflicts. and he'd probably say something like you both desire what each other has and live through each others lives in some connected way. but his theories were all mainly based on sex.

the part where you are being chased by a monkey (not sure what that would symbolize, maybe evolution who knows) means you're technically 'running away' from some repressed sexual feeling.
like i said, i don't believe in freudian psychology. Jung though dreams were important in psychology, but he didn't emphasis the whole sexual bit like Freud did.
Well, we were both pretty young when we were having the shared recurring dream (I was probably about 8, which would make him 6), so I'm not sure I really had any sexual issues at that age, repressed or otherwise. The bit about us both desiring what eachother has (talents, aspects of our personalities, etc) I would say is true even today, but in a respectful rather than resentful way (i.e I respect aspects of my bro that I wish I had, but I don't resent him for having them).

But the fact that we both had the same dream (and before anyone says one of us probably told the other which caused him to have the same or similar dream, that's not how it happened) is interesting. Maybe we have some kind of psychic sibling link. Maybe all sinlings have this ability?
