Dreaming of crazy: chasing, familiar, young, elderly, care and more!

When a madman appears in dreams, he represents some part of the dreamer’s psyche that does not have approval to exist, either social approval or the dreamer’s own.

It may also be the direct expression of a feeling of confusion or misunderstanding in the face of any real or intimate fact in your life.

Depending on the feelings and situations in the dream, we can arrive at more accurate interpretations. If you felt very afraid, for example, and that feeling made you wake up, possibly it was just an expression of fear of madness or going crazy.

In any case, the dream points to sensitive issues that deserve to be carefully observed and analyzed. Below you will find common details in dreams like this and some tips on how to understand them.

The fact that the madman in your dream is a younger or older person brings different meanings to your interpretation. See below how it looks in each case.


If you dreamed of an elderly madman, you are facing doubts about values ​​and principles that you have always believed in. There is not in you, necessarily, a desire to be different: the doubt may have appeared for several reasons, including none, but the fact is that it is there.

It may vary in intensity and complexity, or be causing more or less consequences in your life, but it exists. When dreaming of an elderly madman, do an honest self-assessment and try to identify the need to delve deeper into the analysis of these doubts.

There shouldn’t be too many risks in this process, but if you start to sink too far into insecurities, seek support from other people you trust.


Dreaming of a young madman represents some very strong impulse, feeling or desire of yours, but which for some reason is not in line with what you consider acceptable.

If this has not yet begun to manifest itself in reality, take the opportunity to resolve the case before it causes problems, but it is possible that it has already triggered some unforeseen consequence.

Try to relax and observe the feelings and situations involved in the dream to identify which content of yours it is referring to. Then, assess whether it is really something unacceptable or whether it could exist in reality without major problems. Be honest in this process and try to open yourself up to different ways of looking at things.

The ways of interacting with a madman in a dream, as well as the feelings and environments involved, contain many indications of what this dream is trying to tell you, as you can see below.


The message brought when dreaming that you are talking to a madman refers to some aspect of your personality that at first is not very welcome or understood, but that not only can be accepted and included in your life, but also has a lot to teach you or to offer.

Make sure you haven’t closed yourself off to any changes out of sheer stubbornness, pride, or lack of attention. If you are facing a problem at work or in relationships, consider even the most insane alternatives to solve it: it is very likely that the answer you are looking for will come from there.


A dream in which a madman is chasing you expresses a feeling of confusion and fear in the face of what is unfamiliar and unknown to you. Dreaming that a madman is chasing you refers to a desire or impulse that you understand as “wrong”, but which, however, is part of you and has been fought for some time by your morality.

Try to identify that impulse or desire and face it naturally and, if possible, without any judgment, before it becomes greater than all your chances of controlling it. Accepting and acknowledging our desires is the very definition of health, and it is very different from feeling comfortable putting them all into practice.


To dream that you take care of a madman indicates a moment of introspection in your life, a time necessary for you to fully understand and assimilate some more complex content.

There is some principle of disagreement between your desires or feelings, and you are naturally withdrawing into yourself to analyze the case with all the necessary attention.

Drink plenty of water and try to reflect on everything where you have silence and tranquility to assume a more deeply contemplative posture. Other than that, trust that the weather is doing its job.

From the situations and people involved, it is possible to find very different meanings in a dream about a madman. Find out later the specific meaning for each variation of such a dream.


A madman who gets hurt in a dream represents some aspect of your unconscious to which you feed feelings of attachment, although this is not very well accepted in the environments in which you live.

Dreaming that a madman gets hurt also represents the discovery that an idea, project or characteristic of yours that you considered unquestionable actually has many flaws. In that sense, it is just the expression of feelings of frustration that may be more or less conscious to you.

It’s a time to look carefully into your inner world and find ways to resolve this impasse between feelings and reality in yourself.


Dreaming that you are going crazy is the most direct and pure expression of your confusion or difficulty in understanding something in your experience. This can refer both to concrete situations and to understanding and accepting one’s feelings or other more intimate issues.

In many cases, it may be nothing more than a manifestation of a very common and natural fear of really going crazy. Take a deep breath, look for ways to ease the effects of anxiety and locate the source of your confusion or fear.

Keep in mind that what is considered “crazy” by some will not always be seen that way by everyone. So relax.


A dream in which a madman is cured is an unconscious attempt to demonstrate to yourself that you are exaggerating – and a lot – in the way you see or deal with something. When dreaming that a madman is cured, observe all the situations and characters that appear.

Thus, you will have tips to discover in which area of ​​your life you are acting in an exaggerated way. If you think the dream is part of a more general feeling of stress, find ways to relieve tension and manage anxiety.

Each one has different ways of doing this efficiently, but in general meditation exercises and the practice of physical exercises are powerful antidotes against feelings of this type.


To have a crazy family member in a dream suggests conflicts in your relationship with that person and perhaps with the whole part of the family to which that person belongs. Depending on the feelings experienced in the dream, you have an idea of ​​how the differences are being perceived and what they may be causing to your emotional state.

Conflicts and family disagreements are natural to the human experience and do not necessarily cause concrete and unpleasant consequences.

Dreaming of a crazy family member asks you to remain calm and resolve any disagreement first within yourself. As a last resort, talk to your family member or several family members to clarify the truth of your conflicting feelings.


If you dream that you see a madman, your unconscious is pointing to some situation or feeling of yours with the potential to generate conflicts, but over which you still have some kind of control. The feeling you experience when you see the madman reveals how much and how this situation or feeling is affecting your life.

To the extent that you have only seen this crazy person, without getting involved or experiencing any feelings, you may simply be referring to past misunderstandings or conflicts and for which you have already found a satisfactory outcome.

Let the emotions wash over you and then allow them to go away. Situations that are resolved or that do not represent real threats can still awaken uncomfortable emotions, but they pass and, after that, there is nothing left.


A dream about many crazy people can be an expression of anguish and complete confusion in the face of one or more situations in your life, probably more than one. It represents some difficulty in determining what are the values ​​and principles according to which you act.

Dreaming of many crazy people also points to a difficulty in identifying “reliable” people or really compatible with you. It can point to a diversity of interests, most of the time contradictory and including some that are simply impossible.

Just try to relax and get away from situations that cause you discomfort or confused feelings. Try to express what you think and feel, either through artistic means or through a conversation with someone who can listen and whom you really trust.

Dreaming of a madman points to sensitive areas of your unconscious or real situations, not necessarily because something is wrong there, but because something in them is not being perceived or experienced with tranquility.

It represents, above all, a conflict of principles that may be happening exclusively in you or in some aspect of your relationship with others and with reality.

Try to do the most careful and honest self-assessment you can, identifying what is and is not in your control. Try meditation techniques and other ways to bring your full attention to your body and the present moment.

And try to make peace with the word “madness”: in general, it serves more to stigmatize and discriminate against those who are different than to talk about real problems or real threats to your mental health.
