I've just posted an introduction, but I want to explain my dreams in more detail. I'm not sure whether it's a recurring dream or theme, because they all involve me getting shot, but in different circumstances and I react differently each time.

In my first dream, my friends and I jump out of a taxi at an all night ATM attached to a bank. The bank has a glass facade and as I’m using the ATM I look inside and see men robbing the place. They shoot at us through the doors and I get hit in the neck. As I'm lying on the floor trying to staunch the blood flow, the men come out from the bank. A couple of them walk past me and I see my friends, one of them is dead, the other is shifting on the ground but is executed. A third man comes up to me and points a gun in my face; by this time I’ve decided to play dead but he isn’t fooled. He pulls the trigger several times and my vision goes red, but I try to hang on and eventually wake up. I remember feeling scared about dying at the end of the dream and feeling scared after I woke up.

In a similar dream I was standing in a wooden attic, with a man pointing a gun at me. I hesitate for a moment but then decide to attack him. He shoots me in the stomach and we’re struggling for the gun when I wake up. I remember feeling really angry when I woke up, I really had the urge to break something.

I’ve had a few more dreams like this that I can remember in even less detail. In another I was shot and while I was lying on the ground I began to fight it and then decided not to, and just let go. After waking up I felt fine… then that scared me.

Now I start freaking out when I’m just walking around, like I’m slowly developing agoraphobia. I’m really at a loss to interpret it, because I’ve never had a recurring theme or dream before and I don’t really know much about them. So, I’m open to any suggestions… - Cheers
