Dreams are very complxes. Very less understood, despite intense research.
At times dreams are associated with our hidden fears- something that must not happen to us, those things we can see in our dreams. Also repressed desires, which we can't do in real life, can come in dreams. Deep unresolved conflicts may find a way out through dreams.
Dreams can't cause depression. Though they both can be due of our prior experiences and life events and so on...
