"I'm Falling"
Falling dreams are another theme that is quite common in the world of dreams. Contrary to a popular myth, you will not actually die if you do not wake up before your hit the ground during a fall.
As with most common dream themes, falling is an indication of insecurities, instabilities, and anxieties. You are feeling overwhelmed and out of control in some situation in your waking life. This may reflect the way you feel in your relationship or in your work environment. You have lost your foothold and can not hang on or keep up with the hustle and bustle of daily life.�When you fall, there is nothing that you can hold on to. You more or less are forced toward this downward motion without any control. This lost of control may parallel a waking situation in your life.
Falling dreams also often reflect a sense of failure or inferiority in some circumstance or situation. It may be the fear of failing in your job/school, loss of status, or failure in love.�You feel shameful and lack a sense of pride. You are unable to keep up with the status quo or that you don't measure up.
According to Freudian theory, dreams of falling indicate that you are contemplating giving into a sexual urge or impulse. You maybe lacking indiscretion.
Falling dreams typically occur during the first stage of sleep. Dreams in this stage are often accompanied by muscle spasms of the arms, legs, and the whole body. These sudden contractions, also known as myclonic jerks. Sometimes when we have these falling dreams, we feel our whole body jerk or twitch and we awaken from this jerk. It is thought that this jerking action is part of an arousal mechanism that allows the sleeper to awaken and become quickly alert and responsive to possible threats in the environment.
According to biblical interpretations, dreams about falling have a negative overtone and suggest that man is acting and walking according to his own way of thinking and not those of the Lord.

I used to have this recurring dream when I was younger and it lasted until I was about 16. I used to live on a really steep hill and our driveway was really steep. I would dream that I was in the back seat of a car and we were going down the driveway and all of a sudden it was a drop off and we went straight down. I always would wake up with a jerk. Sometimes I wake up with a jerk and can't remember what I was dreaming about. Weird, huh?

No. The last time I had a dream was when someone said, "Hey Tiger" and "Hey There Tiger," to me, which I eventually started to wake up after hearing them clearly.

I also have this dream where I'm trying to scream but I can't find my voice. I try and try to screan to the top of my lungs but no sound comes out, and it wake up the moment i can finally utter a soun.

It's so weird! I'll be falling and then my teeth will fall out, and then I'll wake up and sit up in my bed really fast. It feels like I actually am falling.
