I often will dream that I'm being chased by someone, but as I keep running it just gets harder and harder to move until I eventually can't move at all, no matter how hard I try. When they've caught up to me I try to scream but nothing comes out, or I can only make tiny whispering noises.

Other times I dream that all my friends have run up this normal-looking hill. I try to run up after them, but the hill becomes so steep it's almost vertical and I fall backwards, trying to grab on to the grass or to anything so I don't fall.

Really weird one when I'm just drifting off.
Basically I visualise an object, could be anything at all, and it begins to spin and osselate, swiftly becoming a tesseract, (Four dimensional object. Wiki it for mind bending oddness) and then explodes in activity.
For some reason this scares the bejeezus out of me.

Another one involves me rising to power (Yes, one of those, but it is a nightmare so bare with meh) anyway, it invariably involves some people from my past, and after some banter with a.. Bad person, I call down reinforcements and order my battle-barge into low orbit.
The Reinforcements consist of Kull warriors with some modifications.
At this point I begin to do terrible things of my own (Use your imagination. I have a battle barge in low orbit and an army of merciless warriors)
For some reason that I could do this really bothers me :\

I usually do not have unpleasant dreams. Most of my dreams are extremely weird, but in a good way. They hardly ever make me feel unhappy. Once you read this post, it'll probably seem like I have a lot of terrible dreams, which isn't the case.

---------------

Inability to express myself. Sometimes I have dreams where I desperately want to say something, but it takes a huge amount of effort just to open my mouth, let alone say whatever I need to say. (I believe the feelings in this dream were inspired by that one time I had general anesthesia, and I was trying to say that it felt really hard to breathe, but I couldn't manage to say it.)

The same thing happens a bit less often with opening my eyes. I can't keep them open, but I need to see. (One time, I was having a dream like that, and I managed to get up enough effort to quickly open my eyes in my dream...and sometimes, if I make a quick movement in a dream, I twitch in my sleep...so my eyes snapped open in real life, thus ending that dream.)

I also dream about similar concepts, like not being able to go somewhere, get something, contact someone, et cetera. All dreams of this type include a feeling of helplessness.

I haven't had many of those lately. Now I have dreams about other things.

Being lost. One time, I dreamed I had a sub driver taking me to school, except she didn't know the way, and we ended up near an airport in Japan. It sounds funny, but it really didn't feel funny.

Losing people. The worst dream I've ever had was about me moving into my grandparents' apartment unwillingly, and the most prevalent part of the dream was my desperation to tell my friends where I was. I was crying when I woke up.

Going back to South (my old school). During the summer, and for a little bit after the school year started (at my new school), I would occasionally have one recurring dream, which is unusual for me. The dream went like this: I would stand at the front doors of the school, look up at the flag, and feel despair. Then I would walk through the halls, and people would say to me, "I thought you were switching schools?" And then when I got to my first class (which was apparently held in my last year's science classroom), people would just crowd around me and say that, and I'd fall to my knees, cover my head, and scream.

And I think that's basically it. I often have dreams that would seem like they'd be bad dreams, but they're not. Examples include: being chased, falling, being choked, drowning (these ones are actually pretty interesting...I dream I'm underwater, and I can't get back up, and eventually I can't hold my breath any longer, so I take a huge gasp...and discover I can breathe underwater. XD My dad says it probably happens when my face is in my pillow.)

Being chased. Always being chased.

Other people enjoy watching me die in various violent manners.

I once had a very strange dream where TNT was gonig around the country in a van, picking people up. I had forgotten to pack any clothing; luckily they had some nice flannel shirts. Then I went into a tunnel reminiscent of the average LSD user's day where I got lost. It was weird.

I had an intriguing dream where humans had become perfect. I traveled to the perfect future, and being imperfect, I was violently murdered by one of them.

It was really too bad, too. I almost got to play the new Pokemon game before its release.

I usually don't have consistent nightmares.. I did have a dream of running down the stairs from monsters and jumping over one once a few times when I was little.. I dunno.

Recently, being adopted. Really not meaning to offend anyone or anything, but that was probably the second scariest dream I've ever had. I was in an airport, then had to go through security, and they found a piece of blue paper hidden in my backpack. And it said that I was adopted. And I was upset.

The scariest ever was to do with Harry Potter. It was years ago.

Just the usual being chased one.

I have a lot of nightmares where I'm speeding down a highway, and my car's brakes won't work or I just don't know how to use them. I seem to dodge a lot of things, then as soon as I'm about to crash I'll wake up. No wonder I'm too scared to drive.

I haven't had any recent nightmares but my number one recurring thing in my dreams, especially during the summer holidays ( :cry: ) is SCHOOL.

Arrgh.
