Brief Answer:
Dreams may be repressed wishes

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Welcome to Ask A Doctor service.

The dreams have studies by any psychologists and everyone has his own theory.

However, According to Freud, dreams are imagery of a wish or impulse from childhood that has since been repressed. This is why Freud studied dreams to understand the unconscious mind.

Therefore, according to Freud, your dreams reveal your repressed wishes to you.

But, this may or may not be always true in practical life.

Are your dreams repetitive?
