Bathroom dream meaning is explained below using 17 different sources. Each interpretation is shown with its source.
Interpretation 1 — Dr. Mıchael Lennox
It is the room where we get to shut the door and be with ourselves in total intimacy.
It is also a symbol of freeing ourselves of waste and toxins. Many dreams that feature a bathroom find us searching for one. Such a dream is about searching for the freedom to be our authentic self, often with the caveat of reaching that authenticity by releasing that which no longer serves us or is detrimental if we continue to hold on, such as resentment or other poisonous thoughts.
A bathroom inside a home connects with personal issues, whereas one that is more public is revealing information about your outside interactions.
A toilet is located in a bathroom. As such, it can relate to relieving yourself of the “shit” in your life that you no longer need.

The health and well-being of your body or consciousness, especially through cleansing-and-releasing of outdated, decaying, or self-defeating elements in your life.
A bathroom that’s messy or in disrepair can indicate a need for more attention to self-maintenance, or a need to clean out or reorganize your consciousness (thoughts, emotions, beliefs, judgments, etc.).
Interacting with someone in a restroom can represent a frank, straightforward interaction, or perhaps an awkward one about a personal matter.
