Is it normal that i often dream of twisted murders.

Ok, story is, since I was 7 or 8 I started having nightmares of ghosts coming to see me in my room, then after a few years they got worse and worse where in my dreams I was paralized by fear and unable to move, thus getting dragged by paranormal sorces to my death whilst my mother was in the next room unaware.

Now I'm 19 and my dreams are a lot more graphic and less to do with 'paranormal'.

Most nights I'll dream of being mudered, in various, horrific ways. I also dream of murdering others, however none of the people in my dreams are people I know in real life, that I recall.

About a year ago I woke up silently screaming, sweating in my sleep, and I often wake myself, and my girlfriend up by taking a sudden gasped breath as if I've been suffocating, then fall straight back to sleep.

The dreams are a part of my nightly routine however disturbing they are so I'm used to them and they don't effect the amount of time I sleep for.

When awake I'm generally a happy person so it's all very out of character for me. I've never bothered to speak to anybody proffessional about this, though I do have a small history of depression from 16-18.

If anybody wants to add anything, it's greatly appreciated, if not, feel free to take the piss.

    I dream up some crazy shit. Like I'm yelling at my evil mother but cannot speak for some reason. Last night I dreamed an alien was trying to kill me and I asked him what he wanted and he said "your cornbread recipe. It's out of this world." I shit you not. I woke up after that and was like WTF?????

    They could be memories of past lives. i don't know what i believe in when it comes to religon, but that could be a scenario

    If ghosts were real that would mean god is to, so then you got nothing to worry about. However ghosts aren't real, I don't know why ppl think they are.

    sometimes I would make my self believe that there is someone in my room that's going to get me and don't move a muscle believing that they would not realize I'm there and think that I am just part of the bed.
