Getting choked?

So, last night I was really depressed. I had a regular dream. In the dream my younger sibling was choking me and trying to kill me. The thing that was scary to me is I was aware of it being a dream and was half awake somewhat if that makes sense. I could feel the choking and it quite scared me.

Mabye he was choking you in real life. But honestly, that might be the case. You better check him. Lol but I have been strangled in a dream but it just felt like he was tickling me. How did the choking feel? Was it pain or a funny feeling?
