  • struggling to break free from unproductive habits
  • a failure to channel creative energy

Flushing the toilet 

Flushing the toilet in a dream can symbolize malicious gossip.

Searching for a toilet

Having a full bladder in a dream can symbolize that you have problems with expressing your emotions.

Searching unsuccessfully for a toilet (lavatory) may signify that you fear expressing yourself in public, but at the same time you need it. 

If you finally find a toilet, it indicates jealousy of another’s position or creativity. 


Going to the toilet in public

Going to the toilet in public indicates that you are too concerned about the opinion of others. 

If you cannot achieve privacy in the toilet, this can symbolize the fear of public exposure or the need for self-expression.
