Does having a dream like this symbolize anything?

Last night, I had a dream about my toxic father and I was trying to push him away and I started to elbow him, trying to get him away from me. Then my boyfriend woke me up and said “what are you doing? You’ve been crying in your sleep and elbowing my chest.” I was actually elbowing my boyfriend in my sleep because of my dream 😭 does this signify anything? I’ve never had a dream like this before.
