The world of dreams is incredibly diverse. There is a place in it for good dreams caused by dreams and desires, there is a place for nightmares - a manifestation of stress and anxiety. And if the plot of a pleasant dream is usually unpredictable, the number of creepy stories can be counted on one hand.
Well, tell me, which of these horror films did you have in your dream?
Dream chase
This is an ubiquitous nightmare that haunts many people. It is a clear sign of anxiety when daytime fears and worries turn into nightmares and begin to haunt a person in a dream. Also, the pursuit can express the desire to get rid of any bad habits, unpleasant qualities or complexes. And exactly how the sleeper will try to cope with the "enemy" in a dream can show how he will act when faced with difficulties in real life.

A person whose teeth fall out in a dream, in reality, feels that he cannot cope with the duties assigned to him or realizes that he cannot direct his life in the right direction. Also, nightmares about falling teeth can symbolize insecurity in society, a feeling of one's own unattractiveness, or a fear of revealing incompetence in something.
Falling from a height in a dream
The dream of an endless fall indicates a person's inner anxiety, his fear of losing control of the situation. Such nightmares can also be dreamed of by those who are panicky afraid of heights, but by the will of fate are regularly forced to face their phobia face to face. From the point of view of scientists, falling in a dream means being in the so-called "hypnagogic state". This is an intermediate state between sleep and wakefulness, when it seems to a person that he is falling, but soon shudders, wakes up and realizes that he was asleep.
Drowning in a dream
Such a nightmare is most often seen by responsible people, completely immersed in their affairs and concerns, and is a reflection of experiences related to real life. Perhaps a person who is drowning in a dream is very afraid of losing respect from others, a prestigious job or his social status. In order to get rid of such nightmares, according to scientists, you just need to reconsider your attitude to life, learn to relax and more often remind yourself that there are no perfect people, and no one is immune from mistakes.
Get sick or die in your sleep
Nightmares associated with serious illness or death, more often than this, symbolize changes in life. Even if the emotions experienced in a dream cause severe suffering, you should not worry and prepare for the worst - according to scientists, a dream about your own death portends the end of a life stage and the beginning of the next. In some cases, dreams of illness and death can still have a negative interpretation, playing the role of a kind of warning about the development of a serious illness, the presence of which a person does not even suspect.
To be naked in a public place
This "erotic" nightmare is usually an excellent tool for determining a person's self-esteem. Clothing in this case serves as a kind of refuge, allowing you to hide the most intimate secrets and secrets from prying eyes. The confusion experienced by a person who finds himself naked in public indicates the presence of a feeling of shame or guilt and suggests his vulnerability and defenselessness.
Get lost in a dream
If a person dreams that he has lost his way, found himself in a labyrinth, ended up in a completely unfamiliar place and cannot find the right path in any way, in real life he probably experiences something similar. Such a nightmare should be the impetus for action. Instead of indulging in despair, you should try to understand yourself and move from thoughts to actions. The main thing to remember is that you can find a way out even from seemingly hopeless situations.
Nightmares about disasters and natural disasters
Catastrophe dreams most often accompany people who are unsure of their abilities and are a signal of an impending disaster in real life. It can be family quarrels, problems at work, difficulties in relationships with loved ones. When this kind of nightmares appear, you should try to unload your busy schedule, finish unfinished business as soon as possible and learn to relax.
Nightmares involving broken equipment
Modern people often have dreams in which they are trying to get through to someone, but they hear only endless beeps in the receiver, they want to send an email, but the computer suddenly fails. And if some do not attach any importance to such dreams, for others an unexpected breakdown of equipment is a real nightmare. The regular repetition of such dreams indicates that a person has problems communicating with friends and loved ones.
Fail the exam in a dream
Even people who have graduated from an educational institution long ago and have already forgotten about complex formulas, test books and essays can dream of nightmares about failed exams. Most often, they symbolize the experiences of a person who feels inadequacy for the position held or feels the need to prove their worth. The one who thinks that he did not do some important thing well enough can not pass the exam in a dream.
