      Unhappy Distressing: Can't run & grasping for leverage

      As I said, it's very distressing. I know running means I'm literally trying to avoid something/someone but what about when I'm desperately trying to grab the ground/grass for help to pull me forward? Has anyone ever had dreams like that?!
      I've had the same situation occur in different dreams.

      The first I can remember I was running away from work [lol] and I had to go up a hill but couldn't run or barely move. I grabbed for the grass and used the dirt to slid inch by inch as my legs dragged behind me.
      Then last night I dreamt I was somewhat lost and after freely running around for a bit, I jogged up to some kids who were happy to show me how to get to where I needed, but again as I got close to where I needed to be my legs got heavy and I was clawing at the grass to move forward. My legs weren't unmovable, I was using my toes to try to help. My fingers would dig into cracks or whatever I could.

      Am I really this reluctant to [move on or something]? They leave imprints in my memory of the heart breaking struggle to try to walk.... :/

      [real world problems aye?]

      Oh god yes!! I have had so many of these types of dreams. I remember when I used to compete in cross country runs( in real life )I had a dream where I was winning the race and then when I got to the end I did this. I slowed down, kept tripping and grabbed at the ground feverishly to pull me forward. I crawled over the finish line only after everyone had passed me, of course xD. It's probably rooted in fear. I think your analysis is correct, maybe you don't want something to end. In real life I often don't finish reading books and I have numerous art projects that I have left unfinished because if I finish them what happens if they don't live up to my or others expectations, in other words fear. Anyways I haven't had one of those dreams in a while but I agree with you they are very distressing and frustrating. I hope you can find a way to work through it, good luck

      I used to have those dreams a lot when I was younger. I think it reflects a feeling of a lack of control over your life, or lack of confidence perhaps.

      I haven't had one of those dreams in a long while however.
