An apartment is a smaller version of a house, and still represents 'the self'. But being that it IS a smaller version, symbolizes your state of finances or the state of a situation in which you are involved.

The elderly represent wisdom, and patience.

Dogs represent loyalty, companionship.

The attacker suggests you are feeling somewhat vulnerable in some area of your daily life. Who is causing this feeling depends on whether or not you recognized the attackers' face.

The struggle you have, suggests an actual struggle you feel you are going through in your waking life.

Drugs(chloroform) change the way you feel. Chloroform is an anesthesia, and slows the senses, makes you numb, unconscious, or 'puts you to sleep'. It suggests that you may be feeling 'numb' about something, or that you feel as though you are 'unconscious'(unknowing) about something, or something you feel you are 'sleeping' through(missing out on).

Are you feeling impatient, or anxious, about something in your daily life?
Are you having financial difficulties?...Like you are struggling to keep bills paid...etc?
Are you facing a situation, or being offered an opportunity, that requires patience, but if you are patient, you feel as though you'll miss out, or lose that opportunity?
Are you rushing into something, but deep down you know you should show some restraint, or patience?
If you are having financial difficulties, do you fear that you will lose your wife/girlfriend?
Are you in a situation that may cause you to lose the loyalties of friends?

Hope this gives you some insight. Good Luck!
