Abuse – If you dream that you are being abused, then this dream can give you an insight into a dangerous or toxic relationship which you may not yet be aware is harmful to you. If you dream that you are standing by while someone else is being abused, then you may feel helpless to protect someone you love and care about. If you dream that you are abusing someone else, then your subconscious is making you aware of the fact that you have not been treating someone well, and that these choices are going to come back to haunt you soon.
