I don't want to die....

This one got me the other night, I can't stop thinking about it...

It's so strange, it seemed so real.... I actually woke up 3-4 times during this dream, and when I would fall back to sleep, the dream would start up again....

My mother is deceased, so this is strange..

Part 1: I'm riding in the car with my Mom. I'm the same age in the dream as I am now 36... we're driving down a street I know in southern Ohio... the phone rings, I answer it and a lady says, I'll have your money in 2 weeks, I simply said two weeks too late and hung up.... my mother just nervously smiled at me...

while riding in the car, I was scared and very uneasy about the place we were heading to... ( I'll tell you why in a bit )... we're now on another road, just a rural 2 lane road with farm land on either side of it... then I see it, the "building" we're going to....

*I wake up here* - sitting up in bed, very nervous about something.

Part 2: I'm back in the car with Mom, I see the building, it's like a small doctors office, we pull in and go inside. Once inside, my wife, father and brothers are there. We're all nervous, but not talking to one another.

In the waiting room there are other people, also very nervous, all have a family member or two with them.

Suddenly a door opens and out comes a man in a white coat and two other people who are assistants. They ask, who will be going first?

*I wake up again here* very nervous still.

Part 3: I'm back in the office, at this point the "doctor" or person in the white coat has taken a man and his wife into an office.... I'm still sitting there with my family... I turn to my mother and say
"I don't want to die, I'm a good person , I've done nothing wrong, I do not deserve this... " "please take me out of here"....

The door opens and the "doctor" comes out with the other man and he's going to be first. I feel a little relieved but I just want to run.

*wake up again*

Part 4: I'm back in the car with my Mom, wife and family, we're running away... they're getting me out of here.... looking out the back window, I see the little office building getting smaller and smaller.... the "doctor" is standing there watching me go away...

( I had been sentanced to death, by someone / somehow... I don't know for what... )

all of a sudden, I'm back in the office building... in the back room.... laying on a table... my hands and feet are tied down... I'm crying... I see and IV hanging next to me with red liquid in it... the tube is running down to my arm.

I look at the "doctor" and say, I'd like to speak to my mother.... please... he said sure... as the red liquid starts down the tube... I see my mom walk around the corner, I say to her " I don't want to die... ".... then every thing starts to fade to black..... WHAM... Im awake again...



*this is where I woke up*.....

I have had a few dreams where I die in and it was exactly the same as yours when it just 'Faded to black' and you woke up. One was when I was about 12 years of age. I was in the street where I live in Wales playing football with my friends and all of a sudden I looked up at the sky. The sky was dark and cloudy and there was this big black rip in the sky. It was kind of like a black hole but not. Around it there were planes floating around it. Not flying but floating. I ran back to my house and went out my back garden and there was another hole in the sky. This time I could see the planets whizzing past and being destroyed. I was counting down and as it got to Earth I turned around and my father was standing in the doorway then everything just faded to black.

When you faded to black did you feel? I remember feeling terror and dread but then a sort of calm.

That's pretty weird man.. This dream has a higher meaning than just an illusion of the mind.. Every dream has a meaning! Dreams with a deceased relative or friend is always weird to me.. Although it may seem like a bad dream, it's always good to see that person.. I don't know man, pay attention to upcoming dreams, and post if something else happnes, you have my full blown attention.!

as things were fading to black.... I was so scared... I remember, thinking, "I can't imagine not existing anymore"...

as the fading is happening... and my mom walked around the corner, I felt sadness...

I had a weird dream a few years ago when I was 20, almost 21 years old. At the time, my mom and I had planned to go up into the mountains to gamble for my 21st birthday. I'm 22 now.

In this dream, I was in a casino, a huge one with like 7 floors, in the center of the building was an out door area, where people would go out to smoke (funny, they're talking about banning smoking in casinos here in Colorado). Anyways, I wondered around this huge place, it was packed, every slot machine was taken by random people that my mind seemed to conjure up, I didn't know anyone, never saw any of these people in my life. I'm on the 3rd floor, looking around at all the flashing lights, I was excited. I was simply looking for a slot machine to sit my self at, when I hear gun fire ring out. I look and see about 5 men in black tuxes about 200 feet from me gunning down people, blood everywhere. They were all looking at me as they blew people away, I freaked out and ran. I took the stairs and went to the 1st floor. As I was running I came to the outdoor area in the center of the building. I turn around and see 2 of the men standing there in the doorway, with what looked like AR-15s in their hands, a split second later, they started to unload into me. I felt no pain, yet I felt every bullet and my body would lurch, about 15 rounds and I fall over on my side. I was viewing everything sideways then noticed a pool a blood starting to come into my view, I knew it was my own, there was a lot of it. I couldn't move, I didn't fade to black, but just woke up covered in sweat and shivering from cold (cold sweat?).

I do remember being afraid as I laid there in my own expanding pool of blood. But I also remember thinking to my self, "Well this was it, was one helluva ride, even though it wasn't that long". This is the first dream that I had where I died. I've been chased down by countless tornadoes (a dream I have a lot), have been stabbed but lived (that one I felt pain), and have been in car wrecks, among other life threating situations.

I think we have dreams like this as a way of telling our selves how important life really is, kind of a way our minds play a trick on us. However my dreams sometimes hint about future events (rarely). So needless to say, I didn't go to the casino for my 21st. I just got drunk instead.

Sounds like a screenplay for a great movie, Slash. (I don't mean that in any offensive way)

I don't really think there are many people that "want" to die. (As long as they are mentally fit that is)

I myself don't want to die, but somehow I don't fear death itself. I am not very spiritual, but as I get older I realise that death itself is part of life.

I think though that I most certainly would not want my death to be painful, if possible.


The closest thing I have ever had to a "death" dream, is the one where I have the sensation that I am falling. I think that everyone gets these at one point in their life or another.

I usually wake up feeling startled from these, and have never landed.

wow, elevatedone! i can see how that dream would be very disturbing to you. i see that it has been quite some time ago when you submitted this dream. have you had any more like it since?
it's amazing the detail that you recalled about the dream.

I remember when I was about 15-16 years old and I hqad a vivid dream anout dying. In my dream my mother took me to a doctor and he told me that I was constipated and that there wasn't anything he could do for me. In my dream, I died... I was distraught over that dream for about a week and a half... Needless to say, it didn't happen.

Hi, yeah that was a while back... thank goodness, no, no other dreams like that one.

I have very vivid dreams, in color and I can wake up and remember a lot of details.

Sometimes it's very nice to be able to remember them.

Ok, according to Spanish dream interpretations, dreaming you are dead or dying or that someone else is dead is more life, and more health to those people.
Dont worry about this. It is not a prophesy of your death. I know its hard to beleive but you will have a long prosperous life.
