This one is common for me as well.

The teeth falling out dream is very common, but I can't ever remember having that one. I do have the legs won't work when I'm being chased dream. Been having that one since my older sister made me watch Chucky when I was about 5 years old.

I have the same dream every 3 months it seems. Last semester of college is ending, finals are starting and then I realize I completely forgot about one of the classes (required to graduate) on my schedule. Usually, it ends with me not being able to graduate.

I actually graduated in 2011.

I have 2 dreams quite often:

1) I haven't been to class all semester because I did not realize I was registered. Now I'm running around like crazy to make up all the work. I graduated college in 2003. Have it at least every other month.

2) There is a small tornado coming towards me. Small as in only about 10 feet wide. I side step it and it misses me, but it keeps circling back around towards me. The dream location is always on my parents' property in North Louisiana. This dream occurs monthly.

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.



Have it all the time. It's never law school, though. Always undergrad.

I sometimes wonder if it has to do with the huge disparity between how I treated undergrad and law school. Meaning, I actually did this in undergrad pretty much vs. being very focused during law school.

The interpretation of teeth falling out in dreams has been widely covered in psychology. Freud associates this symbol to sexual references, such sexual repression or fear of castration for men.




I'm so glad I've never had this dream

Holy shite, I have that exact same dream. I finished undergrad in 1992 and nothing like that ever occurred, nor did I ever drop a class. All those details are exactly the same as mine including not remeberimg where the class is located.

Hell, I had this dream last night.

ETA: I occasionally have the teeth falling out dream and the one where my legs don't work while being chased.

I used to (still do?) have that dream. It was always my final semester a few weeks before graduating, and I realize I'm in a math class that I haven't been to all semester and haven't taken any tests for.

I have one where a criminal or something is trying to kill me and no matter what I do something worse happens until I'm very close to actually being caught or dying and then I wake up.

That's a recurring one for me. I push on one of my teeth with my tongue and I hear that crunch when the root breaks that I can remember when losing my baby teeth, but this time its a permanent tooth. Scares the shite out of me.

How that and anxiety about having my balls cut off relate together I will never know. Thanks Freud

The night before my torts final in 1L, I had a dream that all I knew was IIED (intentional infliction of emotional distress) and just wrote that over and over again for page after page.

I graduated college in 1990. I have dreams about like you. I dream that it is finals week and for some reason I did not attend one of my classes for the entire semester. It is usually some sort if math class and the symbols are foreign to me. I leave the exam knowing that I failed the class. I know that I will have to go to school another semester to graduate. It's like I've been in college for 6 years and I worry that I will never earn my degree.

Side note: I often dream that I live in the dorms and I talk to other familiar students. This dream happens at least once a week. 50 times per year.

Yes, I had the same dream for years. I went to class the first week but was taking a heavy load, missed a few classes, one thing led to another, and I forgot about it and gave full focus to my other classes. It is past the drop date and I am walking across campus and see someone who asks me where I've been and did I know that the final is today. The thing is, if I pass the final, I pass the class and can graduate. If I don't go and fail the final, I fail the class and cannot graduate. So, I go and the professor walks through the class and drops this huge test booklet on my desk. I open it and do not recognize anything. Then, I usually wake up in a panic.

Same dream or some very close version of it every time.

Graduated college in '86. I still have the "haven't attended class all semester" dream a few times a year.

I also have a recurring one where I am in a fight but I can't even make a fist. Like my arms are numb or paralyzed.

I'm sure it's a similar interpretation, but mine is I'm always late for/miss a baseball game. I have it several times a year too. But I'm almost 20 years removed from playing in any kind of meaningful baseball game.
