I went so sleep and I just got out of a relationship, it was an amazing one but he ended up leaving. I was on a road and there were 5 people in my dream. We kept going through a maze of a road. Then we went through some aquatic things and got back into the car. The wind was blowing and we couldn’t slow down. I then wAs with a boy. We were doing great until he got mad I wouldn’t have a picnic with him, he screamed at me and started hitting me. I saw a cop and asked for a ride home and the cop went and talked to him and then picked him up too. In the backseat he then continually kept hitting me and then he killed me

I had a dream, where I was at a school (like most of my dreams), but it didn’t look like a school. Everyone was fighting each other, some where laughing. When I first entered the dream, I was on the second floor, and I opened a door, but then there was an explosion. I fell onto the first floor, there was no hole, and it was just the way the school was set up. I heard someone laughing while looking at me. I fell into another trap, my legs were broken, and I tried to get away (the trap was delayed). I would watch this happen many times, but then I got away. Three came out of nowhere, one kept trying to attack me, another tried to attack me, but less violently. The last one just stood back. The first one had a axe, but I don’t know about the other ones. Somehow I fought back (with broken legs), and pushed them onto the floor, took their axe, and started to violently bash them with it. The person who was less violent, I killed earlier by stabbing them (I don’t know with what). So after I killed the person with the axe, I was in the the school, but everything was normal (no death, but was still designed weirdly). The person who just stood back, kept following me. I kept saying that I couldn’t do anything about how they died, and how I did it in self defense. I continued going around the school. After a while, the dream ended, I woke up early, again. It didn’t feel odd or strange, it felt like another dream. This is the most detail I have ever remembered from a dream. I’ve had other dreams, they usually have to with war, and another dream where a person was wrongly accused of murder. They all feel normal to me. I’m 13, and I’ve been having these dreams for about a year, and the dream I described, happened a few weeks ago. I don’t have any of the things you mentioned, what could it be.

Youre 14, going through a lot of changes, puberty, new school. Harder subjects. It’ll all cause stress. I’m 23 and I went through the same thing and it over grew itself. Don’t ever be scared to sleep, it is scary but it’s needed. Therapy was the thing that helped me the most.

it’s 3:30, the same time time i wake up mid sleep every night due to disturbing and violent dreams, but the only reason i know it was so violent is because i had been searching why my dreams are becoming more frequently violent and vivid, and at the time i was searching i remembered the entire dream, but now i just have a few images and sounds. every night its a completely different dream but they continuously grow in severity and all i can remember from last night is something about tea and the fact that when i woke up i was terrified, but right now all i can think about is the screaming of a little girl as she watched a family member get beat to death with flashes of visuals. the things that i remember from my dreams don’t add up and they either don’t make sense or they’re so disturbing i intentionally forget about them. I’m only 14 and i don’t know what to do. i don’t know who will ever read this but i feel so afraid to go back to sleep that i’m most likely going to stay awake the rest of the night and this is how it is most nights because i’m afraid of where my mind will take me when i’m asleep. anyone with any suggestions
