Have you ever had a dream, and you cannot scream?

Question

I've been having dreams since I'm a little girl, and I'm trying to scream and nothing comes out! I scream, and it just sounds quiet and wispy, and it hurts my throat.

Also, I can't run! I always try to run away from something, and I never get there. It's so strange, I can actually feel the struggle of the running. I am putting up a huge fight to run away, but it's slow, and never ever fast enough.

Sometimes, I can't even read things. I used to tell myself that the only rereason I couldn't read things in my dreams, were because I wasn't sleeping with my glasses on.

Has anyone felt this way, too?

Answer 1

i've had dreams where i was too scared too move. (in my dream i mean)

Answer 2

omg i've had that exact feeling

(i know this is wierd) i had a dream that i was part of the s****. doo gang and we were running from big foot. everybody was running a head of me and i yelled at them to slow down but nothing came out and big foot (well a crazy killer version of big foot) was chasing after me way faster then i was going. i couldn't scream and then i tried to run but i couldn't no matter how hard i tried i just wasn't getting anywhere. i could describe the feeling as running through water, it was very frustrating and scary. it was a long dream so i'm not going to get into that but i know the feeling. i always ended up very frustrated and extremly scared ater the dream is over. i hate them but at the same time, i like them?

Answer 3
