I desperately need just a second opinion on this dream. I can't tell anyone in person atm due to worrying them.

I had to write it down while it was on my mind. I'm going to quote directly from what I've written. Any interpretation or help would be really appreciated - I found it quite disturbing. I know I am currently having issues with my mental health and imagine it's connected (I don't want to give details here as I don't want it to affect a reading).

If you can offer any interpretation OR ANY OTHER SUBREDDIT THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO HELP, I would massively appreciate it. I have felt I needed help for other stuff but after this dream, more than ever. Thanks in advance.

"So I had one of the most disturbing dreams I've ever had yesterday. I feel I need to write it down so it can be analysed. I have analysed it myself verbally (to myself in the car) but I feel I should just RECORD it

There was no [MY NAME] as a person, but instead two versions of me. Almost like two mirror images of myself in the same physical capacity - I didn't realise it initially. I can't remember if I have involved my actual persona in the dream or if I'm just observing two versions of myself - am I one, the other, both, or neither? Both are identical in their appearance.

The two are fighting over how to do something manual. They're both FULLY overreacting and are doing the action whilst discussing how best to complete it. Neither are agreeing and both want control over the action - whenever one berates the other and wants to take back control, one slaps at the other one, physically slapping and/or scratching the other person's hands, face (from what I remember), before taking control. Both LOOK panicky as SHIT in their eyes, but both are maintaining their calm - except for the hitting. They snatch and slap and tell each other off throughout. They're only focussing on what is being done (as opposed to what's being said - they're not listening to one another!). Both are quite indecisive in what they're saying/doing.

At no point do they give the other credit - just criticism. And one hits the other - but it's actually ME hitting myself.

No person, including me, can stop or encourage them.

I feel very disturbed by this dream. SO DISTURBED. I woke up feeling this was how I might view schizophrenia (I'm not sure I do)." (BTW I have no knowledge of schizophrenia so I don't know why I compared it to that in my mind - I am ignorant in that respect and I know it.)

I also found scratches on both of my legs. I woke up around 13 hours ago, and they're still red.
