Have you ever woken up panicking because of a dream TW

trigger warning because this is.. not nice.

I had a dream that I was driving on a two lane road and someone coming from the opposite direction just lifted a gun and shot me in the head. I saw it, didn’t have any time to do anything about it before he pulled the trigger. Had no idea who it was and the only thought I had was “why” before I slumped over.

It was dark and black for a few seconds and I started hyperventilating and woke up just completely freaking out.

Disturbed by this dream I read up on the psychology of dreams and I found out what this dream means.

It just represents that something in my life has ended. My death in the dream represents the end of a part of my life. It could also represent dealing with confrontation.. which yeah.

Which is all true. Just moved, got a new job. A lot of stuff has ended. I guess a part of my life has died in a way.

I also am dealing with relationship issues and that could be my confrontation.

It just made me feel better after waking up terrified is all. I’ve had nightmares but that was so vivid and horrible. It scared me so bad.
