And I can never find help. I try to dial a phone number and I keep pressing the keys wrong, I try to scream but nothing comes out, I try to run but i'm clumsy. I never get caught in my dream, but i'm always "on the run." Any ideas?

I have this dream often also, so have looked into it quite a bit and analyzed my own...
When you dream of being chased, you are running from something... Iknow this sounds obvious, but think about this. Running from something... what do we run from? Most of us run from problems in our lives, usually things we are not ready to deal with.
The screaming and nothing coming out, this is saying that you want to fix this thing, whatever you are repressing, but are lacking courage. Sometimes it can also mean that nobody is paying attention artound you, even though you have voiced your problem, you are ignored, or feel you will be ignored even if you do talk to someone. No action is happening, either way.
The clumsiness reinforces your desire to deal with this problem. You are fumbleing at the only escape, making you almost have to meet this thing face to face.
However, you always escape, meaning you are lacking the confidence to deal with this. You are lacking the confidence because nobody really understands, hense your screaming and nobody hearing you.
Since it is a common theme for your dreams, I suspect this is something you are fighting with yourself. Maybe something repressed that you need to deal with.
My chasing dreams lasted well into my late twenties. It was then I confronted my alcoholic mother and dealt with some issues I had been carrying around. I have had two in my thrities, both when I was in an unhappy relationship.
Whatever the problem is, the best way is to do some soul searching and deal with it head on.
I hope I helped!

Being chased often means being criticized in reality.
Pressing the keys wrong or nothing comes out from scream could symbolize losing control.
Never get caught in your dream shows emotionally you want to avoid things. In other words, that may mean you are trying to evade from something.

To dream that you are being chases, signifies that you are avoiding a situation that you do not think is conquerable. It is often a metaphor for some form of insecurity. In particular, to dream that you are chased by an animal, represents your own unexpressed and unacknowledged anger which is being projected onto that animal. Alternatively, you may be running away from a primal urge or fear.

>> Being chased in our dreams can symbolize that we are running away from something in our life/something within ourselves that we do not wish to face/take responsibility for.
>> Phonecalls can symbolize communication ~ the way we communicate to others/communication between our subconscious/conscious selves. Maybe your subconscious is trying to tell you its time to take responsibility/action on some facet but you are not getting the message ~ Or that you are trying to communicate with someone on an issue, but they are not listening to you ~ (you can't dial the right numbers/try to scream but nothing comes out)
Ciao!
