I'm not kidding when I say this but almost every night in my dreams, I die a horrible, often violent death. Sometimes, I'll be killed with a flame thrower and burned to death. Sometimes, someone breaks into my house and carves me up alive with a chainsaw. Sometimes, I'm chased down in the neighborhood I live in and am shot down execution style by an angry mob.
I could go on and on but it's the same theme almost every night in my dreams.
OK, all you amateur psychiatrists, why am I having these horrible dreams almost every night?

Everything in the dream is you, even the attackers. You don't believe that you have actualized your "true, authentic self" and you want the courage to do so, so you kill the persona or the image of the self that is limiting the courage "to be."

hey there,
im not here for the points, im here to share with you. I might sound like an idiot, but ill still share.
If you have heard of ESP, Example: I usually get dreams, of going somewhere, talking to some one, and then the next day i would meet them or in the soon future i will visit that place, and remember, and it doesent even have to be a poular place you have seen. I get lots of unusual dreams, and by now, i know i sound like a psycho....
Another variation is: When your brain is very tired (simply) or your mind is bother, people encounter such dreams of depressision or adrenaline raising because it the way our mind relaxes, i am not kidding. Hope this resolved something. Watch out, the future is ugly lol.

I'M NOT A PSYCHIATRIST ANYTHING, BUT I THINK PEOPLE AROUND YOU HAVE CAUSED YOU TO FEEL ATTACKED. I ONLY SAY THAT BECAUSE I'VE HAD SIMILAR DREAMS, AND I BELIEVE MINE WERE CAUSED BY NOT FEELING ACCEPTED BY CERTAIN PEOPLE. IN MY DREAM ONE DAY, I SEEMED TO BE AWARE OF MYSELF AND WAS ABLE TO WALK AWAY FROM WHAT WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. I WAS LAYING DOWN ON A BED AND I NEW SOMEONE WAS GOING TO WALK THROUGH THE DOOR AND ATTACK ME. THIS NIGHT WAS DIFFERENT, I WAS ABLE TO GET UP AND WALK OUT THE DOOR. I WALKED DOWN A DARK STREET, WENT UP SOME STAIRS AND OUT A DOOR. I NEVER HAD ANOTHER DREAM LIKE THAT AGAIN. I STILL THINK ABOUT THOSE DREAMS FOR STRENGTH, BECAUSE I TOOK CONTROL OF THAT SITUATION AND GOT OUT OF IT. I GET ACCEPTANCE FROM MYSELF NOW AND OTHERS SEEM TO FOLLOW. HOPE THIS APPLIES, AND HOPE YOU GET OVER YOUR DREAMS

Sounds like you feel something in your life is unresolved. There might be a certain issue that ou have not solved. I have no idea what that might be for you. Sounds like those dreams you are having are a manifestation of it.

You must be worried about something? Have you wrong someone that you think may come back and get you? Gotta check your past & right some of your wrongs. QUICKLY!

I'm not an amateur psychiatrist, and it really doesn't take one to ask: who have you pissed off lately?
