welll last year i was diagnosed with mild depression and ever since then ive been having very violent and disturbing nightmares. for afew months theyve seemed to stopp but just last night i had another. i was in a helicopter with my mom and i was trying to fly it. i tried to slow it down and turn left but i the brakes wouldnt work and i went right. i was so close to flying into things i dont know how i didnt hit them. i was screaming to my mom to try to get her to help me stop the plane but she wouldnt answer. then we were flying straight towards a walll and i was screaming and hitting the brake bit instead of stopping the plane jolted up and we slid into a wall gently. next thing i know im in an apartment with my parents looking out a window and the helicopter i was just in crashed into 2 pieces in a lake. i crashed the plane. in my dream i had a headache from the crash. i kept walking away and going back to that same window to look at the helicopter in the lake then my parents realized that they were missing 140 dollars. my dream was veyr strange but..im really looking for answerrrs about this. i hate these nightmares and i just want to see everyones opinion on this dream. thanks
This dream seems to be about being out of control and a fear of what might happen because of it (helicopter crashing). There is a good chance that the nightmares have to do with your depression, and as your depression gets better they will start to go away. Are you taking any medication for your depression? If so, did the nightmares start around when you started taking your medication? If that's the case, speak to your doctor about it. You might need to change your medication/dosage.
she did give me medication but they we only vitamins. B12 B6 fish oil. ect. my depression seems to vary. some days are better then others and the nightmares just happen randomly. even if i dont take the vitamins
I read that explosions and crashes in dreams can be expressions of creativity being stifled and wanting to come out. Do you think your depression could be a result of unfulfilled desires, or thoughts and feelings not being expressed?
