Does anyone else have violent dreams almost every night? Abd by violent I mean I always seem to get into a first fight, or running away from someone... For example last night I had a particularly violent dream, where I was about to be car jacked or something and I physically couldn't hurt him, abd my car wouldn't start so I couldn't getaway until I found a knife in my car to stab him a few times( first dream where I recalled using a weapon on someone) and only.to hurt him enough for I.could get away. I'll add o don't take pleasure in violence, and in waking life iam not violent and have never been in a fight

Yes, I have nightmares almost every night and have since my brother was murdered over 10 years ago. Almost always being chased by something. Either some human killer or something supernatural like zombies. I'm always in a fight for my life. Waking up from them doesn't stop them either, they pretty much resume where they left off when I go back to sleep.
I've pretty much just learned to deal with it at this point. Used to give me night sweats so bad my clothes, the bed and my pillows were drenched in sweat, they don't really happen much anymore. I used to also carry the trauma of the experience with me into the next day, but now I don't.

Hmmmm interesting but yours are because of a traumatic experience, which would explain it.. I've never gone through anything traumatic lol and am pretty happy or somewhat happy in my waking life

Mine is an obvious trauma.. You might've suffered something a little less obvious that still traumatized you. I don't know you so I can't say if that'd be the case, but you'd hardly be the first person to assume "that event" didn't leave any lasting scars and wasn't traumatizing for you.
Could be something even like just having a hard childhood. You're well adjusted now so it doesn't really seem like it had much of an effect on you, but subconsciously it left a lot of scars. Stuff like that.

I have those dreams almost every night except when I smoke weed. I don't mind them. Keeps things interesting. I usually find cool and interesting ways to get away. Fighting sucks though, cause I'm paralyzed.

Pretty much every single time I get in a fist fight. It's like I'm trying to hit them while underwater, but not with a closed fist, more like an open palm slap. It moves so damn slow by the time I hit them, it doesn't even faze them.
My only options in dreams are to run or use guns, and both end up as ineffective as trying to punch them. Either I can't run fast enough or get blocked, or my gun jams or I'm out of ammunition, sometimes bullets just don't hurt them, like vampires. The only exception to these is the zombie dreams. My guns work, and they are lethal, but there's just too many of them. I can run, and I can stay away from them and get away, but I spend the entire fucking dream running. It's just hours of nearly non-stop sprinting and dodging.
Almost all of my dreams these days take on some weird aspect as well, they're not pure nightmares like they used to be. One of the last dreams I can remember was in the middle of the zombie outbreak. The zombies were trying to kill me and the people I was with, but we were friends at the same time, even going so far as to stop and chat. Like the action would just pause for a brief moment and we'd catch up on old times, then it's like a bell sounded to signal the start of the race (there is no audible bell, it's just an analogy) and the chase is in full swing again.

I can relate with what your saying but I have no way to make any sense out of it.
The other night I had a dream where I was telling someone all of my most personal secrets. When they ask me any question I would elaborate in great detail with the answer. I am a secretive person and for good reason I do not go telling my business on the regular. When I awoke I could recall the conversation I was having. I could not figure out who I would be telling all of that to, finally realizing that my conversation was taking place with the Almighty. Crazy as that may seem we have to keep in mind it is just a dream. Upon further self analysis I have concluded that I was building up too much stress and needed someone to talk to about it. Sadly there is no one in my life I can trust with every last secret, so my subconscious helped me out with a visit from someone who has my best interest at heart.
If I told anyone I know this in the same way I told it here they would probably laugh in my face.
Thank god for Shroomerites Anonymous

I have a lot of violent dreams I think it's normal for people to have them occasionally. Just last week I had a dream I was in some arab guy's house and all the sudden I get into a shoot out with him and his son. I still vividly remember the part where I aimed down the sight of my shotgun and pulled the trigger. I remember waking up like WTF I don't even know any arabs.... Weird shit. I don't have dreams like this every night, but all the nights in between I don't ever know what I dreamt about. The violent ones are the only ones I remember for some reason usually I'm the one escalating the situation in the dreams, but occasionally I have dreams where I'm the victim. I remember one from years ago that was so vivid: I was walking down a hallway and I seen someone coming from the direction I was heading coming towards me. The hallway was narrow so I have no idea where I was in the dream. I finally got close to this person and he stabbed me right in the center of the chest. I woke up immediately to find myself experiencing some sort of heart burn or something in the same spot I got stabbed in the dream. I was like god damn maybe that was my body's elaborate way of telling me I had to get up and take some heart burn meds. lol

Ya I get those too, especially where the gun is extremely un accurate, or you can't squeeze the trigger lol, I also can never seem to run away when I need to.run away... My legs will be too heavy, or my feet will drag and I will keep falling to the ground

As for not doing damage in dream fights that could be related to subconsciously being worried you're not strong enough or something.

or it could be the subconcious sensation of the paralytic hormone your body produces so that it doesn't ever physically carry out its dreams...
But go ahead get all freudian on us, its not like he's full of shit or anything.
