Thread: Recurring dreams that stop on their own

It was always a different elevator, and I was never lucid in these dreams. In real life I was a little scared of elevators but I still used them. Then one night I dreamed about getting into an elevator. It started to fall, like always, but then it slowed down and stopped, then the doors opened up and I got off the elevator. Then I woke up. After that I never had this dream again. It was so weird, it was as if they just stopped on their own. I still have the same reservations about using elevators in real life, but once again I still use them, because they are necessary sometimes. Has this ever happened to anyone else, the dream/nightmare seemed to stop on its own without you really doing anything? Makes me think my subconscious was dealing with something and took care of it without me knowing it... it was just weird.

For the first time in my life, I am certain I know what this is!

Your fear for falling elevators is from movies...

EVERY single elevator in our new world, has security that stopps the elevator from falling..

And if that for some reason was to be sabotaged, then the "air cushion" under the elevator, as it falls down the shaft, will make it stop..

So in reality, there is no way for the elevator to smash in to the ground.. Just like you saw in your last dream about it..


I might be wrong though, so do take this with a a pich of salt.

But I feel rather sure about this..
