Discussion Have you Dreamt of Death

[abruptum]

I dreamt that I died last night.

Well kinda, it was so surreal. In my dream I was with my girlfriend in a futuristic city where we were chasing after a friend we saw running away from their s/o during a concert type thing. Anyways we chase them into a back ally and then we heard gunshots, of course we just asked the locals if they saw anything and they said they saw her running near a lasertag place. We run over ingoring that we just heard gunshots. Finally we are walking into the lazertag place hoping to see our friend and we are interupted by locals telling us we have to go before people start bustin caps. As we are trying to turn to the door and leave I see in slow motion someone running in with a shotgun and he puts a first shot into my neck, people follow behind him and those in the lazertag place already get to shooting. All of this is happening in slow motion and I could feel my life bleeding out and losing feeling. It was weird that I wasnt afraid I was just glad to finally die. Thats when it it me that they are aiming at my girlfriend. I had to sit there being glad that I was dead just to see her die. She was only able to last 1 bullet before she hit the ground lifelessly. I looked back to the people who warned us to leave and pointed at my neck asking if this was fatal. He shook me off, I figured my only way to die here and not feel guilty was to go out in a blazing glory. I picked up one of the guns from a dead body and turned my eye to the nearest person who had come in just to shoot up the place, firing away only to run out of ammo. As the people who I just shot down fell I took another bullet this time into my collarbone. I noticed we- me and the people who were in the place to begin with- had started to chase out those who came in just to cause trouble. Then my eye met the person who shot me to begin with and who killed my girlfriend infront of my own eyes. I had the jump on him outside the door and finally put him down. Afterwards I took myself still living in slow motion, still feeling the life leaving my body and having this welcoming feeling that I was finally granted my one wish in life. I was only burded by the fact this was the way my life decided it would end, being that of major bloodshed and sadness.

Anyways that was a long story but yeah that was a pretty crazy dream defiantly felt weird to wake up into reality after that, as my fading to darkness in my dream left me to opening my eyes in life. It was all so real feeling and I couldnt capture that feeling of my life leaving my body in any other aspect of this physical world as of rn.
I was just wondering if anyone else has expierneced something like this.

Damn, every part of your dream, especiall this one, is just awesome!
You could even write a story about it!

As for me, I've dreamt of death more than once. I've been shot, pushed from a tall building, stabbed and I even ctb!
When I ctb or was shot, don't remember exactly, and died, a window popped up asking me if I wanted to be reincarnated or go to heaven! (yeah, i love isekai anime and novels lol). I think I chose the reincarnation option but then woke up.

That's a really cool dream, I think I got some goosebumps from how you retold it. I agree it's a weird experience awaking from a realistic dream or one you died in.

I have lucid dreams fairly frequently and one failsafe to escape them is to die in the dream. Jumping off buildings is generally what works lol.

Also had a pretty cool dream a few months back that I was on a beach. We heard some strange noises, only to realise there were planes flying in our direction. German bomber planes that were on fire started dropping incendiary bombs onto the beach. I was running back up the beach in an attempt to escape while holding hands with the only guy I knew. I felt one drop to the right of me with a flash of light and started feeling my arm burning up. Pain seared through my arm and I let go of him, dropping and rolling to try to extinguish the flames. My vision went red and I woke up.

My fav is getting killed by a bengal tiger.

You should be a writer.. One of my most recent vivid dreams was lucid (aka realizing I was in a dream and sort of controlling it) I kept dying. And every time I died I'd move to a world 100 years before the first.

There was some dude intent on destruction (never seen the avengers but Thanos fits the bill) and only be taken down by me and this other soul that had swapped bodies by dying repeatedly like I did in the dream, combining the crystals we were given.

I'm usually immortal in my dreams. So when there's violence, I get lethal wounds but don't die, instead I run around with broken bones, gouged organs and missing guts wondering why I'm not dead.

I've dreamt about it a few times... I usually don't remember. But the worse ones are when I jump from
a building. I can feel the fall and even the impact... Afterwards I wake up and realize that it wasn't real... just a dream.

I've dreamt of it many nights. It's the joy getting me through the days at the moment.

I've dreamt about it many times especially last days. In the last one I jumped off a cliff with a car and reincarnated as a clownfish. This was weird.
