Have you noticed that sometimes you have dreams where someone is chasing us, but you can't run away? Or do you need to shout loudly, but the sound seems to be stuck in the throat and cannot escape? We tried to figure out what the secret is.
The human body keeps many secrets, and the subconscious mind - even more. Sometimes it is dreams that can tell more about a person's emotional state than himself. Why, in a dream, you still can't scream, run fast or fight?
I can't scream in my sleep
If you had a dream in which you are trying to scream, but it does not work out for you, then do not rush to open the dream book and try to interpret this situation. Perhaps you are simply pissed off by something in everyday life, or there is a problem because of which you are worried, so everything spills out through dreams. In this case, experts advise visiting a psychologist in order to find out if such dreams have a destructive effect on the nervous system, some still argue that all fears are associated with childhood traumas. Sometimes you can shout at someone in real life so as not to suffer on a subconscious level. It's always good to express emotions!

I can't run in my sleep
In a dream, everything lives according to its own laws, which differ from the rules of wakefulness. If you do not have the skills of lucid dreaming, then during the phase of REM sleep, all people (except those who suffer from sleepwalking) turn on muscle blockage, it is thanks to it that it is impossible to run fast. Time seems to stretch out, which is why 15 minutes of sleep at lunchtime can energize, as if you were sleeping for several hours at night. There is another condition - "sleep paralysis", in this case everything happens the other way around: sleep has not yet come, and the muscles are already paralyzed. Of course, some managed to run fast in their sleep, but usually people complain that they move as in slow motion. There is a way out of this situation: try to fly, because in a dream you are the master.
I can't fight in my sleep
Our body is in a sleep-saving mode. For this reason, all processes in real life slow down, the nervous system works differently. Low brain activity makes it impossible for the precise and sharp blows that we need if we dream of a harsh confrontation. We stop responding to external stimuli. Remember how it happened: you woke up abruptly from your own snoring, sudden movement, falling out of bed? It was at these moments that the brain did not decrease its activity, which led to unforeseen results. Or is your partner complaining that you broke his nose - you need it to be able to fight in your sleep? As long as you cannot scream, run and fight in your sleep, your cells are regenerating.
And what dreams, where you were powerless, did you dream?
