Do you have a recurring ‘worry’ dream?

I have a few:

1. Doing something for work and realizing I'm naked. I am a nursing instructor so that makes this even worse!

2. Bad guys of some description being in the house and needing to get away from them.

3. Failing an exam or doing something seriously wrong at work (e.g. forgetting to give a medication or not accomplishing a task).

I’m usually in a big city and have lost a grandchild . No one will help and I’m dashing hither and thither.

I can usually wake myself up from a bad dream.

I have a few of these- one is I'm parking car and reversing slowly, but car won't stop, no matter how hard I press the brake pedal. However, I wake up before I hit anything.
I'm sure it's to do with fear of losing control.

And yes, brakes fail.
It has always been ok except for once. I went down an incline I know, brakes failed, and I shot stright out into oncoming traffic. Then I woke up!

Mine is that I can't get home, with lots of variations on that same theme

Ditto. Or I have forgotten where home is...my guess is these are really common x

Mine is getting lost. Again with lots of variations. Last night I was staying in a hotel with work colleagues and couldn’t find the way to my room, or to meetings. I can never seem to remember how to use my phone to ring or text - no matter how hard I try. The other night I dreamt I couldn’t find my table in a huge restaurant where my family were eating. Again I couldn’t open my phone. In my dream I never tell anyone, so I pretend I’m ok.

Oh yes, mine are always toilet related.

No door, no seat, no paper or really dirty.

I have a relative who is exactly the same as you.

Mine is, I cant work out why I am not going to work[where I worked 40 years ago]. Shouldnt I be going? And how am I going to survive if I dont have an income?

Yep! That’s my dream as well.

Also being chased by baddies. I hide and they never catch me.
Phew!😂

I get the car brakes not working dream; usually, it’s something old-fashioned that I’m driving, like a massive Daimler.

Then there’s the aeroplane crash I witness but no one else can see it. Also, a baby dream, either a huge, adult-sized newborn baby that can do nothing for itself, or a tiny little 5lb baby that can walk/talk and so on.

I have a few of these- one is I'm parking car and reversing slowly, but car won't stop, no matter how hard I press the brake pedal. However, I wake up before I hit anything.

Mine is travel related - many variations on a theme of being late for a train/ boat/ plane and/or having the wrong ticket, a lost ticket... I'm sure a dream analyst would be able to explain what it's all about!

Similar to Allira. I’m heading to a hotel that I really know and have used before. Every entrance does not get me to the reception..sometimes I find a way in but can’t find a lift to my room. I’m in a panic because family are waiting for me and I will be late!

A level.panic dream. Whatever time if year I dream it is reflected in the dream. So if it is May, it will be oh my god my exams are a few weeks time and I haven't done any work.

I also gave panic packing dreams. Where I have little time to pack cases, too many items too little time or space.

Yes. I'm somewhere I don't know, perhaps a hotel that looks like an airport, knowing I have to be somewhere else important. I'm scruffy and in need of a shower and can't find the lift to get to back to my room, everyone else is somewhere in the foyer, outside, all ready to go.

This is something fairly new, it makes a change from the one when you can't find a loo anywhere and when you do, it's next to a footpath by a beach and has no door.

Teaching a class who won't do as they're told, an inspector appears and I don't know any of the children and don't have any resources.

Oh yes, mine are always toilet related.
