For the past week i've had nightmares that someone I'm being attacked in my house. My boyfriend said that I start screaming and crying before i wake myself up. Does anyone know what could be causing these dreams

the fact that you keep having the same dream is a bit concerning. the home should be a place where you are safe and secure - being attacked in your own home (in the dream) would imply that you feel as if your personal space is being encrocahed on.
hopefully it is nothing to worry about that would just go away. but maybe you need to consider whether there is something bothering you - maybe not consciously, but give it some thought and you might come up with something. try and talk about it with a close friend - if not your boyfriend, then somebody else in your life who you can trust. it could just be that you need some more freedom in your life and take time to do something just for you.
hope you sort it out! try not to worry! :)

I used to dream of being in a car wreck.. Like you.. same dream every week or two.. car wreck and a semi.. guess which one I was in.. yea the car. I died over and over and over. It was a dream to tell me that I can't control everything in my life and if I didn't stop trying it would probably kill me. Well I didn't believe it.. so my blood pressure went up and up worrying about the things I couldn't control until it was too late and I had a small heart attack. So I started going to a friendly church and left as many of my problems to the lord that I could. It worked for me. I hope you find a solution to your problems because I havent had that dream now for years and years. Good Luck!!

To dream that you are being attacked by someone, signifies questions on your character and the need for you to defend yourself. You are feeling stressed, vulnerable and helpless. You may also be faced with difficult changes in your waking life.
The above is as is seen classically, I cannot say whether this would apply to you.

It's possible that it's an indication of stress or anxiety. I often have this type of dream when I feel under pressure at work or in my personal life.
