Feldman describes his own dreams and dreams of another adult and a child. He calls them 'alarm dreams'. 'They are anxiety dreams and are manufactured for the purpose of awakening the sleeper at an intended time, or in order to awaken the sleeper from a genuine anxiety dream situation.' Feldman differentiates these dreams from Freud's 'alarm clock dreams' and Ferenczi's 'dirigible dreams'. 'In the "alarm dreams" the system Pcs gained dominance over the system Ucs by a hypercathexis of one part of the Pcs system over the other part.'
