[quote=@Xandrya] More often than not, my dreams create a lot of anxiety for me. For example, last night I dreamt I was trying to get away from a bomb about to go off in the middle of the small town where I'm from. As always, I run as fast as I can although it never feels fast enough. Then came the second part of the dream. Out of nowhere, I had some generic bad guy order me to my knees as he yelled at someone else. Then he turned his attention to me and told me to get into a car and drive off. I didn't want to get in the car as I knew it was rigged with a bomb, but he had a gun, so I had no choice. I drove for a few blocks then the dream ended because presumably the damn thing blew up. The dream is kind of funny as yesterday I watched an episode of Criminal Minds involving a school shooter who also had a bomb on him. But yes, I have a ton of dreams where I'm being chased by someone or something. Or in this case, I have to do something and I'm terrified but I have no choice. I've been stabbed, shot, kidnapped, drowned, etc. I wish I could get an expert to weigh in on this. I mean, I wouldn't complain if I had at least one dream where I win the lottery but noooooo.

Try to find it. Before you sleep, try to listen to calm music, which will help slowing your heart rate and lower levels of stress hormones.
