So I am 30, have my B.S. and my J.D. and haven't sat in a class in over 3 years.

I have a recurring dream between 3-5 times a year. It is most often I registered for a class and for some reason, usually either I forgot i registered or just didn't go, I stopped attending the class. I have stopped going for so long I can't even find the classroom for the final exam, and almost always wake up right around that time.

Last night, it was law school and it was a Wednesday night before a Friday exam, when i look at my schedule and I also have a 20 page paper due that day that I haven't started.

I read the link below and it covers these exact topics. Anyone have a good dream interpretation book/studies?

I have this same exact type of dream sometimes. I haven't been in a college classroom in over 7 years.

I haven't been in a classroom since 2006 and I still have this dream every 2-4 months.

It's a common dream. What it usually means is that you are stressed and feel as though you are not in control of your own life. When you feel like this, it triggers your strongest versions of these feelings, i.e. when you were in school.

It's kind of crazy that everyone has the same dream too

I haven't had this dream in probably a year. I'm sure I'll have it tonight after reading this thread. Hate that one.

I haven't been in school in 7 years.

Another common archetypes include driving a car or vehicle that is out of control or one's teeth falling out.

I have the same damn dream. I haven't sat in a class since 2007, but every now and then I wake up in a panic bc I just realized the semester is almost over and I've been registered in a class that I was unaware of. Funny to hear someone else experience this.

Also have this dream every few months. Usually during times of high stress.

Anybody ever have the dream where their teeth fall out? That one's pretty bad too

I have the teeth falling out dream a few times a year. I have always heard it means you are anxious about something. I also have the naked in public dream every now and then, I always have a t-shirt on and nothing else

My version of this dream is I'm in the backseat behind the driver in the car by myself as it careens down the highway. Then something happens that requires me to take the wheel or apply the brakes and I have trouble getting into the front seat.

Have the teeth and exam thing too.

Another is when I'm in a situation that requires a weapon, and I always can't find a weapon, find an empty weapon, the gun jambs, misfires, or the trigger is just ridiculously hard to pull. Then it usually devolves into slow motion fisticuffs.

I have never heard of the teeth falling out dream

I always have the dream where I'm trying to get away from someone trying to kill me but I can barely move my legs. What is that supposed to mean?

Wow...good to know I'm not the only one having this dream. It's the strangest thing. I've been out of school since 2009.

I have this one too. It's usually an animal chasing me though (cobra, bear, etc). I also have dreams where I'm playing some sport and I can't run or throw a ball...very frustrating

I get this dream all the time - it usually involves me having registered for a class, but never went because I forgot I was enrolled in the class. A big test or final is coming up and since I never went to the class, I am totally unprepared for it and freak out. Then I wake up
