My dreams are always basically nightmares

Sometimes I'll have a dream where I'm doing something fun like playing tennis, and it's neat for a little while, but ultimately the background for every dream I ever have is a nightmare. I'm always lost in some city or country I've never been to in real life; I almost never have a residence and I'm always wandering. Most situations are embarrassing or compromising. I'll be naked or I'll have lost something or my teeth will be falling out.

It's never a happy dream. I'm never in a golden field with a beautiful girl with a bunch of friends and a big house in my dreams. I've always done something wrong and I'm running and hiding, or I'm breaking into something I shouldn't be, or doing something I shouldn't do. Every night, forever, year after year, this is how my dreams are. And the worst part is: I have vivid dreams every night. I always remember them. I hate dreams. Does this mean I'm a really screwed up person?

  • No it does not mean you are screwed up. if you use anything containing nicotine, such as dip cigarettes etc, the nicotine can cause exactly what your are describing. most of the time you have to smoke or dip right before bed. high stress can also cause this.

  • as i am much older now i have had a newer dream of a gray wolf just sitting up on-top of a hill it had a black bell collar around its neck this time it did it came running at me a fuckin again but in this dream i was in my neighborhood in the dream i was just having a good nice walk til i seen that wolf no telling how long it was watching me walk up towards it so as i was running,,

    it was chasing me down i stopped running when i got to my house i stopped at this tree in my back yard and i started praying to god and then the gray-wolf wasn't going to bite me it had a paper rolled up and it gave me the paper that was in its collar by the bell on it and i took the note and read it and then after i read the note i saw this native-american guy standing where the wolf was and he said something to me but i can't remember what it was but then i heard him say thank you to me then in the dream i started walking back and into my house but before i went in the house i looked back at the guy and i seen him turning into that wolf that was chasing and i was even thinking then in my dream damn this is fucking weird wouldn't you say.

    all of this was 1 dream in 1 night

    i don't know about you but this one felt more real to me almost like it really did happen but it didn't it was only a dream

  • i really don't know but thats kind of how i am when i was younger around 9 or 10 years old i would always have the same dreams almost the same ones but not quite,

    one that scared me the most is this one i was dreaming of these big animals a brown-bear and a big-tiger and a white-bear and wolfs in the dream i was in these thick woods with trees all around me and big-rocks and no-where to go or to hide my self from these animals when one of,

    them would look at me it had red evil looking eye's in the dream i would always pop up looking over the big-rocks at these mean looking animals one of these was always fighting the other one as i was watching them fight their was another animal that kept running really fast threw the woods and i could never see what it was

    on into the dream further they all would stop fighting and then the wolf would come chasing towards me so i ran and kept on running away from the wolf as i was running threw the thick woods i came across a road only one road and a big hill that the wolf was on and then i was running down the road and then there was this guy way the fuck down the road that had a gun but he never it all shot at the wolf the wolf saw the guy and turned

    around and went back running where it came from then me and this guy i don't even know get into a truck i guess its his anyways we go after that wolf in his truck and hes driving the truck at first chasing the wolf down and then somehow i always ended up driving the truck while he was trying to shoot at the wolf but he always missed but then,,, i had this same dream over and over i don't know how many times i have had it but the last time i had this dream the guy did shoot the wolf in the back leg and it fell off the hill into the ditch then it ran across the road and i ran it over with the guys truck then i would wake up from having this dream and i remember it clearly if i could i would draw a picture of it all but whatever that was that was running really fast threw them woods it looked like it was in 3d it was weird i tell you.

    all of this one is 1 whole dream in 1 night

  • ooooooooo

    no, its normal.
    in my dreams other people are the ones that are always suffering, and i'm just perceiving it all
    the weirdest part is, i find it sort of exciting depending on the "nightmare" if they could be counted nightmares at all...i would cry in dreams due to strong emotions, but I would never mind continuing the dreams. In fact, I start daydreaming about them even after I wake up.
    Try lucid dreaming :)

    if you dream about falling teeth that means death according to dream dictioanries and whatever...i odnt beleive in it lol. that used to happen to me a couple years back, its probably that your feeling uncomfterble or anxious about something.
