i dont have dreams to ofter, but when i do it seems to always be aruond the same basic theme. the theme seems to be that im always in some sort of trouble. i always seem to be running for my life, or have people chasing me in my dream trying to kill me. i figured since it is a continuously reoccurring thing, id give it a shot and ask if anyone might have some sort of explanation for it.
thanks

hello.
well, according to
MythsDreamsSymbols (one of my favorite sites);
"Dreaming that you are being chased means that you are avoiding a situation that you do not think is conquerable. It is often a metaphor for some form of insecurity. In particular, to dream that you are chased by an animal, represents your own unexpressed and unacknowledged anger which is being projected onto that animal. Alternatively, you may be running away from a primal urge or fear."
blessings on your path.

thanks for the response. and that makes sense, im just trying to gather my thoughts and figure out if im insecure about anything. and actually, its been recently ive been getting a flood of dreams, ever since i started taking this drug called " 5-htp " to help me sleep. anyways, i was curious if that would be normal or bad in anyway. prior to taking this drug, i hadnt had a dream in 2 years. ( atleast i didnt remember any
)
nice site btw... been browsing it for 5 minutes.

i would be more worried about not dreaming for two years, than this particular dream - unpleasant tho it might have been.
dreams are messages from our subconscious - an important and useful path to self understanding, imo.
glad you are enjoying the site.
blessings on your path.
