Have you ever died in your dreams?
So it got me thinking, more then for others to share their experiences if any of you have any? I mean i asked this to Mr Mushwin and all i got was, "all the time" lol So i ask as i have, a good few times over the years i have been here, died in my dream and some of them feel soooo realistic. Recent one been electrocuted and felt like i was really there and well this may sound a little sad or nutty to some but was wondering, if anyone hs ever experienced this? how bad was it?

Hate to break this to you but once u die in your dreams as in you literally die there is no coming back the same. Once your mind perceives you as dead then the body will shut down. I've felt pain in dreams yea but death man nah I don't think so

The most terrifying thing happened to me in my dreams... Well, if you watched 'Lost' series, there was a certain sound before flashbacks. In later seasons sound used for flashforwards.
So, story is, I shot myself in the head. I felt that my body fall down, then I heard flashforward sound. Sound just cut through my ears and then I woke up. Next thing I realized: I lying on my bed in the same pose (on my back) as when I killed myself. And my dream felt like flashforward.

i've never died but man the amount of dreams where i wake up right before falling to death from an insane height are too many to count.

YOu got it wrong, you didnt die there, you were only close to dying, in agony.
Even if you die somehow in the dream, you don't actually die and just start dreaming about afterlife.

i have stabbed a man in traffic, attempted to choke someone, saw some crazy ######### and the end of the world, and so it is no surprise i have seen myself super jump off a bike and land into concrete right before waking up. 10/10 experience however i wish there was a replay button.

I’ve died in dreams many times. The most memorable was when I put a bullet in my own head. Everything went dark but I remained in this pitch black void realizing quickly that I was still capable of thinking. The odds of surviving a .44 through the roof of my mouth were nearly impossible. I remember wondering if it was normal to be able to continue thinking if I were truly dead. There was a sense of ease as if there was no longer anything to worry about. Then things quickly turned into a panic of what happens next.. I wondered if I would be stuck in this void all alone for eternity. Then I started to worry that my ability to retain conscious thought would fade. I became overwhelmed with the concept of losing all conscious thought forever. It was an intense struggle to process what had happened, what was happening, and what was going to happen next. The final thought I remember having was that I just had to let it all go and that everything would be okay because I had to accept that whatever was going to happen next I had no control over.
Then I woke up.

Dying in a dream doesn't change you that much at all. If the idea that dreams represent your subconscious thoughts in weird, abstract ideas, then at most it may be trying to show a part of your character or something that you've experienced isn't needed anymore.
Other than that, feel free to die in your dreams as many times as you like ... if that's - y'know - your thing.

I used to have a reoccurring dream where I 'd either drown and somehow revive or people who wanted me dead though I was and I got away

Everytime I'm about to die in my dreams, I just stop dreaming but I'm still asleep? Like right before my sudden death, I stop, heat up immensely and wake up covered in sweat (but time has passed since I 'died' in my dreams so the sweat and my body heating up was long before me waking). It's really odd actually I don't know what happens when my dream ends, but I just sleep for hours apparently.

I just had that a few times when I was younger and always woke up the second I died. Once I was trapped in a car wrecker like in the Wraith story. Waking up in that second when the pain is at max level right before you die makes you feel it still after waking up, like shockwise, that was not a nice experience.
And I can tell you, it feels so real for a reason. Don't know if you know lucid dreams or experienced that once. When you dream, it is identical to reality. Once I knew I was dreaming because I wanted to play Diablo 2 and just take a short rest because I was a bit tired. Fell asleep, got into a strange house and wasn't sure where I was. Thinking "why you here? hmm ... what did you want to do here? ... you .... wanted to play diablo.... FUUU you fell asleep!"
And then I thought, ok now that you know you are asleep you can check out this dream world, and instantly was flashed by the precision the brain reproduces everything in your dream. You feel gravity, your own weight on your foot soles, the clothes on your body, the "white noise" flushing through the walls of the house from a bunch of sounds outside, see the structure of the wall and can feel every knob with your finger tips.

I guess dreams work differently for everyone. It's such an interesting topic, because some people theorize that dreams are an alternate reality you enter, and live through. And I've always found that theory interesting, don't believe in it, but have always found it interesting. Dreams appear so real to you in the moment, that you don't question what went on until you're awake. In some of my dreams, I am far more naïve or downright stupid than I'd be in real life in such a situation, yet, in others, I'm very sharp and way more intelligent than I would actually be in such a situation.
I've came to the conclusion that my dreams have a message from my subconscious thoughts, usually a flaw, insecurity or sometimes my ego and confidence, which I try to translate when I wake up and I spend a lot of time in thought about some of them. One time, I was literally tracked down in one of my dreams, by someone I thought I've never saw (it was the picture below) and he murdered me flat out on the top of a train. I still haven't figured out a message behind that, if there even was one. I'm still uncertain if it meant anything. Btw, he was a lot creepier in the dream, he ran at me while doing the crab, but it was terrifying. (Weird dream tho)
Anyways, I then came to another conclusion built off of something vaguely similar I read in real life, what if the people you see in your dreams are people you've seen in real life? Like it could be people you've randomly seen outside, and forget about them, but they meet you in your dreams? I think the subconscious thoughts deliver a message, while using people you've randomly seen, hence why this fellow came into my dream to murder me, I have seen him in a meme before lol. The most plausible theory I've came up with is that me dying in my dreams represented a change of personality (I did have a whole personality change at the time) and it represented the death of my old self?
Sorry for the long read, just wanted to share my experiences and my thoughts on dreams as a whole. Dreams are very mysterious. (If you read it all, share your thoughts <3)

It's weird but has anyone other then me had a continuous dream? like you get part 1, 2 and 3? as i have had, sadly horror very very ugh ghist ######### spooky stuff but enough ti have me alert and believing

Ty a lot! If I get a dream again (it's actually quite rare for me, happens maybe once every 2 weeks, hence why I remember the good ones so well) I'll tell you about it if it's interesting.
Omg, yes. But they didn't come one after another, they came with gaps inbetween each one but continued for the other. It was kinda dope tbh, but I think it was about me having a partner but that's all I'll say as the rest is not something to be said on a forum like this LOL and I'm also unsure on what it was.
EDIT: For clarity.

Hahah, this isn't the Matrix, that's nonsense.
I've had dreams where I was falling, and I wake up just as I'm about to hit the ground. I think we've all had that, though.

I have been having a lot of dreams where I die on a plane crash.

I always wake up before me or anyone else dies.
