ive had three dreams spread throughout this month in which i die. in the first dream im in a friend's basement and i am blind. i am running into walls and people are in the background saying "is he really that retarded?" constantly. i keep hitting walls and finally im on the floor smacking my head against the pavement and bleeding. then someone says, "he really is the most retarded person ever. then i stop for a second and he says, "nope wait.." then i start smacking my head against the pavement again and he says, "yep he is really the most retarded person ever." and finally i died, and when i died there was a second where i thought i was dead, then i woke up, realized i was alive, and fell back asleep. the second time i was behind a high black fence in the middle of the desert and i started running. a man was behind the fence at a distance with a rifle, i couldn't see his face. he shot me and i went blind and kept running, he shot me again and i fell to the earth and started twitching, then he shot me again and i thought i died, then woke up like the last time. the last time i walked into a bar and a woman with her face turned away from me reached behind her and shot me straight in the head with a pistol, and this time i just woke up, and never thought i was dead. what does it MEAN?
I get killed a lot in my dreams. I either fight back or just leave my body. Last night I fought back.
A couple days ago I had a dream, I was in school and all of a sudden there was a lockdown because there was someone with a gun in the school and they came in my class and then I started talking to the guy and he said he'd let me go if I killed everyone in the room, so he gave me a gun and I killed everyone. That was fucked lol.
I think you shouldn't fear death, and just accept it as something natural. I don't know how you look upon death, but from my personal experience nightmares often come in the form of your deepest fears.
im not afraid of death and the world doesnt hate me but these were some weird dreams and i havent had one before or since maybe its my fear
while i was reading the first dream about being blind and running into all the walls.. i felt that, maybe you are blinded by some foolish thing you are doing, and while people are still trying to help you.. you continue doing it.. and even when you stop for a second, and people have a hope that you will then see what you need to change.. you once again, keep doing it... do you feel you are disappointing someone.. or are you disappointing someone while you are not even realising it? maybe you need to stop for a minute and observe your action. possibly even, your blindness, and the fact that you are in the basement.. which is generally a 'dark' environment may be symbolic for failure in something you attempted.. and it's also symbolic for fear. did you feel lost while running around? are you SEARCHING for something. or just running around? what are you searching for, if you are? to die in your dream on a positive note can be symbolic for change, or.. some kind of inner awakening, such as; self discovery. it could also be that, the change has not come yet but is going to. on a negative side, it may be symbolic for some deep pain from.. a relationship, with others or yourself.. and you may be trying to escape from it, or from some kind of responsibility that you have.. and then considering the fact that you realise you are not dead.. realising that the responsibility is still there and then going to sleep may mean you are avoiding it, or hiding from it.
i die in my dreams a lot too. sometimes i wake up when i die or when it gets intense like if i'm getting stabbed or falling of a cliff. but then i'll die as a form and continue to live as an experience. its weird to explain, but its not all bad. i dont think dreams are omens. its probably more like our own personal universe.
I have death dreams frequently. Except its not like i get shot or i fall off a cliff. its always something that isn't immediate. Like once in a dream i had cancer, and i had a few months left to live. My boyfriend broke up with me and broke off all contact and i didn't know why. In the dream i was so depressed and i couldn't understand why he was abandoning me when i needed him most. In another dream i was in a building that was hit by a plane (like 911 except the builsing wasn't that big) i managed to get out of the building alibe, but then i was told i had radiation poisoning and i only had a few weeks to live. In the most recent one, i was in ney york (i live in australia) and some country declared war on the US, and they started nuking, and i kept thinking, of all the times the US had to get nuked, it had to be when i was there. And everyone was running around panicking because we were all going to die. Each time i wake up before i actually die, but it doesn't make the dreams any less distressing. Also i have a lot of dreams where by boyfriend leaves/cheats on me. Not quite as frequent as the death dreams, but still distressing none the less. They have a big impact on me, it will take like a full day to recover and stop shaking and being freaked out by it. Then i go to bed and 9 times out of 10 have yet another nightmare. Its like a vicious cycle. Has anyone found a way to stop nightmares or to prevent dreams from occurring at all? Would come in very handy
