What do you see in your everyday dreams during the pandemic? Faced with the threat of COVID-19, our brains are overwhelmed to the point that that they transfer this stress to our sleeping state.
Experts say social shame is coming over dreamers. They find themselves forgetting to wear a mask, for example, and are more concerned about getting out before anyone notices their mistake in the dream.
It is usually things that arouse strong emotions that cross into our dreams, and apparently the COVID-19 pandemic has become one such thing for many people.

專家指出，社會羞恥感會籠罩做夢的人。例如：他們可能在夢中發現自己忘了戴口罩，但卻更擔心要如何在被別人發現前，趕快離開當下所處環境。
因為從多數情況來看，通常是那些會激起強烈情緒的事情會進入夢境中，這也代表 COVID-19 顯然已融入我們的夢境。
