40 years of Dream Interpretation Experience

Hi all - great to be a part of this community! As my title suggests, I have many years of experience in Dream Interpretation, and am willing to make suggestions. I will do my best to try and answer as many as I can, but please realise I am quite busy with other projects, and this is more of a leisure activity for me, so I may not be able to help everyone.
Looking forward to sharing with youall!

Hi, welcome. It seems every day people want help interpreting a terrifying or strange or memorable dream, so I'm sure whatever help you can give will be appreciated.

Hey, I was about to post a thread about this but now you've saved me from some flaming.

As long as I can remember I've been having this same dream ( i have others of course) but this one seems to come back over and over. I'm at my old house ( from when I was about 8, I'm 21 now) and down the block my little brother (about 6 in the dream) it getting beat up by a group of kids and then all of the sudden people start running from everywhere over to where he is. When I try to run I physically can't it try and try and try but nothing happens I just go slower and slower the more I try. I've never been able to get to him but every time I get to a different spot before waking up.

I just found this website but I've been having this dream since I was at least 10-11 years old.

I've had the same experience as you but in many dreams. When I try do do something like running, swimming, fighting etc. I also physicaly can't, just going slower as if my body was paralised. It is such a harrowing experience not being able to do anything, it's worst then facing monsters or a regular nightmare thing. I still haven't find a solution to this problem.

I've heard that's common, something everyone experiences in dreams occasionally. Specifically, while running it feels like trying to run through water up to your waist, and being unable to scream. I wonder if it's just a strange dream phenomenon (perhaps you're feeling your real body in paralysis at those times), or if it signifies something whent he subconscious does that.
