Nearly everyone has had the experience of dreaming that they are being chased, startled, or assaulted and being unable to cry out. This signifies that you have difficulty communicating when you are awake if you cannot cry out in a dream.

People are pressuring you not to express your emotions in real life, and in your dreams, you’re overwhelmed with them. You may be in an unhealthy relationship or feeling frustrated with a friend or family member.

The dream means you have been hurt in real life and have trouble communicating your feelings. Also, this dream may be an indication that you are emotionally repressed.

Dreams About Being Attacked And Can’t Scream: Symbolism

Anger And Frustration

Suppressing frustration can be symbolized by screaming at someone in anger. You may be experiencing a situation in which people don’t allow you to express yourself or don’t listen to you when you do.

It’s possible that you haven’t been taken seriously or that no one will listen to you or consider your suggestions, or you may have an issue that no one will take notice of or assist.

It appears that all your attempts at communicating are fruitless. Your (screaming) words seem to be devoid of sound or meaning. The absence of sound in your scream indicates a sense of repressed frustration.

Fear And Anxiety

Screaming in your dream may also indicate that you are afraid or anxious about something. You may feel frustrated in waking life, and this frustration is causing your anxiety.

You may be feeling powerless to do anything about a situation or issue that concerns you. You may be afraid that if you do speak up, someone will hurt you.

You may be experiencing a situation in which you feel trapped with no way out, or you feel you are being held at gunpoint and have to remain quiet. A dream of screaming with no sound may also indicate an issue causing you to feel insecure or vulnerable.

Inability To Express Yourself

If your dream involves screaming, but no sound is coming out, then there are issues regarding your inability to express yourself.

You may feel that you are being held back from doing something or saying something due to fear of rejection or judgment.

You may be experiencing a situation where you feel that your words are not being heard, causing you frustration. You may be feeling powerless to do anything about a situation or issue that concerns you.

Fear And Helplessness

It’s not uncommon for people to dream of silent screams; however, these dreams are not generally considered nightmares.

If you feel that your dreams are more horrifying than just eerie and bewildering, there may be another reason why you’re unable to scream.

You may be feeling helpless because of many reasons. Your dream may be pointing to your inability to assist others or the type of assistance they require, which is beyond your capability.

It may be that someone is refusing your assistance or that you cannot get to someone or something in time to offer assistance. There are times when you want to cry out a warning but know that it is too late.

For example, you may want to warn someone unknowingly walking into danger, but they may be too far away to hear you or refuse to listen. These situations may recreate that feeling of helplessness that you are currently experiencing.

In addition to recognizing when your dream is expressing a feeling of helplessness that comes from being overwhelmed or outmatched, you may also recognize when your dream is expressing a feeling of helplessness that comes from being unable to alter or avoid something.

You may be nervous about an uncertain future because of a fear of danger or a lack of confidence in your abilities. Can you recall a situation where you were afraid (or recently when you were afraid)? It shows that you can’t handle a job, relationship, or life change right now. Maybe someone in your life has become too controlling.

Sleep Paralysis

Sleep paralysis is a condition in which you are unable to move when waking up or falling asleep. In the dream world, your body may become immobilized by an intruder or a monster.

Hallucinations and nightmares may accompany the sensation of being paralyzed. Being attacked in a dream and can’t scream may be a sign of sleep paralysis. Maybe you have a lot of stress in your life or are experiencing sleep deprivation.

Humiliation

In this dream, you may be experiencing a situation in which you are being humiliated by someone. In other words, you may feel that someone is making fun of you or humiliating you somehow. Also, this dream may be an indication that you are emotionally repressed.

Persecution

Persecution refers to unmerited negative feelings toward someone or something; it usually involves unfair treatment or mistreatment for no good reason.

In this dream, persecution can refer to experiencing discrimination because of one’s race, religion or social status; it can also refer to having some kind of negative outlook on life (negative thinking).

Also, this dream may indicate that one is emotionally repressed or has unrealistic expectations about how the world works (e.g., expecting others to behave in ways they do not).

Grief

This dream may signify that you are experiencing grief or mourning someone who has died. In most cases, this is not positive, as you will have to deal with the pain of your loss for a long time to come.

Loneliness

Loneliness is a state of being alone, without one person or group of people to care for and take care of. Loneliness can refer to feeling like no one understands or cares about you and being rejected by others.

Regret

Regret is a state of having feelings of sadness because you have made a mistake or failed to do something, and you wish you could go back and change your past. This dream may indicate that you are experiencing regret over any mistakes made in the past, or any negative outcomes that have occurred.

Sadness

The dream may indicate that you are experiencing sadness or sorrow, which is a normal emotional state that we all experience at some point in our lives.

Sorrow

Sorrow is an emotion that is similar to sadness. Sorrow can refer to feeling sad about a past event, a present situation, or an upcoming future event. This dream may indicate that you are experiencing grief or mourning someone who has died.

Emotional Issues

If your dream involves screaming with no sound coming out, it could mean that there are emotional issues that are causing you to feel powerless and fearful. For example, if you’ve been experiencing anxiety lately and find yourself feeling more anxious or depressed than usual, this dream may be a sign that something is going on that needs to be addressed.
