The effects this fear has on different people cause them to react differently in real life, but in a dream, most people react the same way; they either wake up as the tension in the dream begins to mount, or as soon as it climaxes, but there are others that stay with the dream no matter what situation occurs. I normally have this dream a few times a month, but as soon as I fall into the water there are either sharks or alligators waiting for me, but I still keep going with a positive outlook. Is it a fear of falling or is it a fear of not being in control that makes this one of the most terrifying of dreams?
Some people are so afraid of falling from a bridge they will do everything they can like taking alternate routes that more than double their travel time. If forced to travel over a bridge, they will get nervous, their hands will become sweaty or shaky, and they will hold onto the steering wheel like it's a fish trying to wriggle out of their hands.
Dreaming about falling from a bridge usually indicates that the person dreaming should reevaluate their current path or position in life, this dream denotes that there is some obstacle preventing your progress that must be dealt with before you will be allowed to cross the bridge and continue on your journey. The road you travel in your dreams represents your current path in life and if there are obstacles in your way, you will never reach your destination no matter how many times you have this dream. Try to figure out the meaning of each of the different symbols you are able to remember while you are dreaming. Each person uses imagery differently, so two identical objects in an identical dream can mean two totally opposite things from one individual to another depending upon who is doing the dreaming.

Post a CommentAlso..;) forgot to include. When you are too hot in body temperature whenever you feel that drop in your sleep the heat and false nerves cause your body to not function properly sending off many reactions last example..the brain may give off a comand such as being on a roller coaster..' oh no I am going to fall!! That gut feeling you get before falling is your brain sending off nerves and sometimes sending off too many..riding that roller coaster to much will make you hurl or give you a tummy ach..know why?? Because you just got that droping feeling get it? Try it yourself if you think this is false...close your eyes and imagine one of the most biggest drops you can think of..don't open your eyes just yet and start to imagine almost falling down it...if you feel that slight gut feeling but don't feel that drop yet is because your brain knows it is not in danger..but..if you were about to fall.then you will feel that drop. I am sorry for any incorrect spelling errors I enjoyed this.
When you feel a fall, drop, or weight in your sleep it means you..outside of your dream is waking up due to a reaction.
Your body temperature being too hot while dreaming to which you start to sweat can cause your brain to start releasing false nerve reactions to your body..now..due to being alseep it can't react in its proper way..like..for example being awake if your touched a stove you would say" ouch that's hot!' Won't do that again will ya?? the brain is correcting itself because..well you are awake..now if you were asleep and did that..it would take few before the brain to start coming out of that dream stage into reality again...so now you are awake and wondering..how did I get this burn??? Need I say case closed.
