I’ve had this recurring dream where I am in a room all white with no doors with 1 person whose face I cannot see. I am screaming at the top of my lungs for them to listen to me, to hear me, to understand me, to make me feel heard. Even though I cannot see their face, I know it holds a blank expression. I know that they hear the words I am saying but are not comprehending the meaning. I know that as much as I say it and as many different ways to make it clear, they don’t ever truly hear or understand me. I slump down onto the floor, feeling defeated and deflated while they say in a monotone voice, “I understand” knowing full well that they don’t and then, I wake up.
