Recurring Dream: Blindness

For about a year now, every now and then I'll have a very peculiar dream. The details are always different, but it usually involves me running around, fairly excited. Then, after I've been running for a while, I'll go blind suddenly, or my vision will get very bad. In most of the dreams, when I stop running, this goes away. This is always very frightening and irritating, and I'm always quite relieved when I wake up and the problem is gone.

I just wondered if anybody has an idea as to what this might mean.

Note: I'm a 19-year-old male with a history of anxiety.

I've had that recurring dream too, but not in a few years. Everything goes really fuzzy and I can't make out anything. I too would like to know what people think about it.

perhaps it might mean that your anxiety which is caused by stressis of life, instead of stressing, you just need not to worry, let go, learn to relax, learn to clear your mind, develope faith that God will work things out, do your part and intrust the rest to him. If you do not develope faith, but keep worrying because of circumstances or things on your mind, that is like running around inside yourself restless. This will blind you spiritually, or make things blurry spiritually speaking. Faith is the clear vision, worry is a blurred vision. Worry blinds us. It blinds us from the bigger picture of things.

This could be the meaning. You decide.

Well, the dream recurred again last night. I was sitting in my parents' living room. I looked in my pocket and found some sort of strange German coin. Then, I looked on the end-table and found a bunch of odd-shaped Italian coins. As I kept searching, I found that there were foreign coins everywhere. But, whenever I tried to search for them or read the writing on them, I couldn't see it. It was like something in the corner of your eye: whenever I looked directly at the coins or tried to read them, I couldn't see anything.
