When you dream that someone or something is inflicting physical pain on you, consider carefully the context. This can mean, broadly speaking, that you are feeling shackled and out of control, and is a clear pointer that you may need to take action to "make things happen" rather than to "let things happen."

To dream that you are inflicting pain on yourself can mean that you are not facing up to your true feelings about your life and that this dream is a clear-wake up call that this cannot be allowed to continue.
