I just wanted to post this because I thought it was interesting and maybe it's happened to somebody else. When I was younger, I used to have recurring dreams where I'd get into an elevator, and then it would start to fall, but I'd wake up before it fell all the way. So scary! 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.
