Originally posted by Endlesswave I have had the sensation of falling, then waking up with a start, that's annoying.

I have that happen to me all the time. At least once a week. It's VERY annoying. A lot of the time, I'm a little girl riding my tricyle and I fall off.

I've never died in my dream, but I have had my Dad die in one of my dreams, and it felt so real. I was going around (in my dream) at my Dad's funeral screaming "this is a dream, my Dad is not really dead." My Mom and Grandma kept telling me it was real. I woke up crying. I was sleeping at my boyfriends that night and I had to call my Dad at like 7 in the morning to make sure he was okay, that was how real my dream was.

sometimes jokes GO TO FAR, sometimes ppl cant take a joke you know

To dream that you die in your dream, symbolizes inner changes, transformation, self-discovery and positive development that is happening within you or in your life. Although such a dreams may bring about feelings of fear and anxiety, it is no cause for alarm and is often considered a positive symbol. Dreams of experiencing your own death usually means that big changes are ahead for you. You are moving on to new beginnings and leaving the past behind. These changes does not necessarily imply a negative turn of events. Metaphorically, dying can be seen as an end or a termination to your old ways and habits. So, dying does not always mean a physical death, but an ending of something.

On a negative note, to dream that you die may represent involvement in deeply painful relationships or unhealthy, destructive behaviors. You may feeling depressed or feel strangled by a situation or person in your waking life. Perhaps your mind is preoccupied with someone who is terminally ill or dying. Alternatively, you may be trying to get out of some obligation, responsibility or other situation.

To see someone dying in your dream, signifies that your feelings for that person are dead or that a significant change/loss is occurring in your relationship with that person. Alternatively, you may want to repress that aspect of yourself that is represented by the dying person.

"And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had"

No, b/c I've died once in a dream or two.

If your in REM sleep (where dreaming takes place) you actually are paralyzed , this might explain it.

Personally ive never died in a dream, always wake up moments b4

Originally posted by *~LiSa-LoO~* I was just wondering how many of you believe that if you die in a dream you actually die in real life? I'm not that superstitious, but I guess this one still kinda gets me. Last night I had this really wierd dream that I was at some hotel with virtually everyone I know and there were these ghosts there that really wanted to kill me. I kept trying to get away, but they would enter other peoples' bodies and turn them against me. I was constantly on the run. It really freaked me out to the point where I woke up numerous times through out the night b/c I didn't want to die! I barely got any sleep...at least good quality sleep. What do you guys think? Truth or myth? Should I be afraid of dying in my sleep? Have you ever died in your sleep?

well according to most dream readers dying in one's sleep doesnt mean the person will die for real

as most of the stuff we dream usually means almost the opposite

oh and there is a movie coming out with Sandra Bullock who dreams that her husband dies, and then wakes up and finds him alive, and then back to him dead the next morning, the trailer looked pretty interesting!

I have gotten very close to death multiple times in my dreams... but I always wake up right before the final blow.

Ya...I knew that! That's what I was afraid of going into last night. I didn't want to go into REM sleep b/c I thought if I died my subconcious would take over and tell my body I was dead. So I spent most of the night half awake - and thus didn't a good nights rest.

I think I knew that but I didn't think I was dreaming as I was half awake? All I know is that it was NOT cool.

REM sleep is not a choice.

Originally posted by rabbitjoker REM sleep is not a choice.

Isn't REM when you fall into a deep sleep? So if I purposely don't fall into a deep sleep I wouldn't be in REM sleep? I don't know details about how sleep works...but I remember a class about it in high school. REM sleep is good quality sleep - when your body can rejuvinate itself is it not? So like if I take a nap for example, but don't feel well rested afterwards it may be because I wasn't in a deep enough sleep (i.e. REM)

I'm sure you know more about this than me RJ. Could you enlighten me?
