I died

    Last night I had the wierdest dream.

    First, I went to see Freedom Writers last night so there was bit of gang violence in it so there is a clear link...however.

    Basically my friends and I basically witnessed 3 shootings in one day. All the shootings were done by young Dublin guys in tracksuits. When the third happened we were at a petrol station and a few of my friends were inside, a few outside and I was filling the car with petrol.

    I heard a shot and saw all my friends running inside, which I thought was strange - why would they run towards the shooting? I could hear the shooter yelling one phrase over and over again (I can't remember what it was) and when I looked through the window it looked like he was still inside. Suddenly I realised that he was actually outside and he was coming around the corner of the building towards me. I panicked and lay down on the ground.

    As he passed by me he casually pointed the gun at me and shot me in the chest. I felt a strong hot wet burning sensation in my chest and had three thoughts:

    1) I can't possibly be dying
    2) I want my sisters to know I love them - I tried to speak and could only get out "I love..."
    3) I'm not ready.

    Then it was as if I faded away, a bit like I was rolling down the hill except my face was still facing my friends who looked shocked. I was dead. Then I woke up.

    This has seriously freaked me out. I'm actually considering writing a letter in case I die so that everyone knows how much I care about them! Anyone shed light on a potential meaning?

    Don't know about the rest of the dream but death in a dream often signifies a change in your life so it's nothin to worry about.

    You will die, the only question is when. (hopefully not for a long time)

    Perhaps you should write a will, you can include personal words and sentiments in it

    or

    You could just tell people you care about them, even tell them about the dream, and that you want them to know ....etc etc.


    wow, this forum must be very quiet, 2 weeks to get a response......

    did you survive Louise?

    Don't worry too much about it.
    I once had a very vivid dream about being stabbed, felt the knife point go in, pressure etc.
    That was many years ago and I'm still here.

    Sweet dreams ;)

    Only died once in a dream. It happened a couple of days ago. I fly a lot in the work I do. Well, I took a swan dive out of a plane and hit the ground. Didn't feel any fear as the ground rapidly approached. Strange! Had the late munchies. Wonder if it was the after mid-night salmon I ate?

    I can think of two occations where I died in my dreams. the first was when I was about 10 and I got attacked by the Teacher and Principal from The Bash Street Kids comic, whom were both toting chainsaws. the second was a few weeks ago when I attempted to jump over tram lines, fell short and was electrucuted.

    In both cases the dream continued after I died, and on both occations the first thing to come to mind after the incident would be "yes. I can see what happens after death" and nothing happens, I just lie there
