To see yourself bogged down in a quagmire signifies your inability to meet obligations and your feeling that you are stuck in a boring routine. To see others bogged down in a quagmire denotes that you are being affected by the moods of others. To see a swamp in your dream symbolizes aspects of yourself that are repressed and dark; it also represents feelings that undermine your confidence and well-being. Perhaps you feel overwhelmed by a feeling or an emotion.
