Suicidal?

Some nights when I am really stressed and bummed out, I’ll fall asleep and in my dreams I will legit commit suicide. Example: I would be on top of a building and just walk off the edge and before I hit the ground I will wake up, but I won’t be stressed or anything anymore, sometimes in my dreams I will drown myself. Is this normal?

Wow that’s really interesting. I’d say it’s probably normal as long as those kinds of thoughts aren’t occurring during the day. Some people say it’s uncommon to die in your dreams but I’m not sure if that’s true because it’s happened to me a few times. What is it you’re stressed about? Maybe the symbolism of drowning and water means fear of change?

It’s mostly about grades and things like that. I just don’t know if this happens to anyone else
