The Stress-Dream House

I had a stress dream last night.

I don't specifically remember having it before, but when I woke up I had the feeling I had had similar dreams as the place I was in looked familiar from other dreams. What was nice was my cat of 16 years who died over a year ago was there, so it was good to see the cute fur ball. In my dream I was very protective to him, exactly as I was when he was alive. In the dream we were at a hotel, not a chain but more a converted house in a local seaside town. I was carrying him down to breakfast with no harness or cat carrier...something I would never do as I know that would stress him out too much. When we get down to the breakfast room I look down at my chest and I'm naked; I think it's just my upper body. It's not one of those dreams where people are staring at me, in fact I am not aware that anyone has even noticed me. In my dream I wonder if I should got back to my room to finish dressing...I feel as if it might not be worth it.

Obviously an insecure stress dream. Am I insecure about my job, worried people will notice I am not good enough? Or am I taking risks that I shouldn't? Or am I not paying attention to more important things and need to reassess priorities?
