Dreams about social media, such as Instagram, can often reflect your feelings about connection, recognition, and self-expression. In your dream, your friend shouting you out signifies a desire for validation and acknowledgment for your creative efforts. The sudden lockout and password change might symbolize feelings of vulnerability or insecurity about your achievements. It could suggest a fear of losing recognition or being cut off from your source of validation and community.
Consider how you feel about your friendships and creative pursuits in your waking life. Are there any anxieties about being appreciated or fears of losing access to your creative outlets? This dream could be prompting you to reflect on your support systems and how you manage your creative identity.
If this resonates with you, it might be helpful to have open conversations with your friends about your creative work and the support you need.
