possible to faint while dreaming??

[hayleyw]

hey everyone


okay, this is going to sound very strange but please bear with me...


on thursday night, i had a dream that i was at a golf course (where i work). A man was there and I was sitting down. of course, he v*ed unexpectadly RIGHT in front of me. it wasnt a lot, but in the dream, i fainted. The only thing is, it seemed SOOOO real that i can't help but wonder if it is possible to actually faint while sleeping.


I was curious to see whatfainting in a dream meant, so i just looked it up in my dream dictionary. this is what it said:


"if youhad the rare dream of being unconscious yourself, a physical checkup would probably be beneficial."


hmm...any thoughts?? have any of you experienced anything similiar? thanks everyone and have a really great weekend

That dream sounds scary! I don't know if you can faint while sleeping, because you are already unconcious. ??

Once i had a similar experience. I was actually sick though. I had a sv* and was probably severely dehydrated and when i woke up i couldnt tell if i had actually passed out bc i was so ill or if i was just sleeping and dreamed that i passed out.

I have dreams where I die...well actually I don't DIE but like I'll get shot in the head and collapse and everything will go black and then when I open my eyes again I'm someone else. Weird huh? I don't think you can actually faint in real life from a dream cause you are already out, I'd be more worried if you were DAY DREAMING and fainted.

thanks for the replies everyone!!


i'm just more worried because the dream is supposed to be a sign of something wrong with physical health [img]smileys/smilies_12.gif[/img]

Well if you really are that worried then see a doctor but I've had some strange dreams that once interpreted meant bad things would happen...etc and usually nothing came of it...but see a doctor if it'll put your fears to rest.

Yep, I've had dreams whereI've fainted, but it's just a dream nothing more than that. I have several dream dictionaries and a lot of what's written in them is rubbish, so take what that says about probably needing a physical check-up with a pinch of salt.


I dream all the time - several dreams every night, all so graphic. I also taste and smell in my dreams! I've had dreams where I'vebeen killed or died - then wake up which much relief!
