What are anxiety dreams?
Dreams are accepted to be a natural part of life, a part of our imagination. Dreams and dream interpretation have fascinated mankind since the dawn of civilisation.
Why do we dream and what do anxiety dreams mean?
Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, two of the more famous therapists, were influential in the field of dreams and interpretation. Freud’s approach was retrospective, in that they were formed of past events usually relating back to childhood. Jung further developed Freud’s ideas by focusing on interpretation and symbolism as influenced by daily living from which we can achieve a balance between our conscious and sub-conscious mind.
Whichever school of thought you subscribe to, most agree that it is feelings of anxiety when our worries and fears cannot be resolved that they can fall into dreams thus turn into nightmares.
Planes falling from the sky, being chased, teeth falling out, falling, being late, being unprepared, etc., are all common anxiety dreams.
