A few days ago i was talking to a friend of mine about dreaming in general. He told me that rumours say that when you die in a dream you actually die in reality as well. This doesn't seem very realistic to me, but i couldn't withdraw it. As most people i have never dreamt of actually being dead, always just waking up before hitting the ground or whatever fatal accident happening. This even makes the theory a bit more believable...

Well, as you'll expect, this discussion fucked up a dream of mine bigtime.
I was having one of the fery few nightmares i have ever had. A group of strange, manlike monsters were attacking me, and i was really scared until i suddenly gained 'a bit of lucidity'. That is, i had to convince myself that i was really having a lucid dream. I intented to fly over my enemies, but was only able to do so after a few tries, while really saying to myself that it hád to work because i was lucid.
The flying gave me a bit of freedom, allthough i still wasn't sure i was save now. But if i knew i was dreaming, why would i be scared at all?! This thought also entered my mind, and i started to sing, or in fact shout, very loudly, and very cheerful songs, just to enlighten this situation which wasn't necessary at all, because i was goddamn lucid!! At one moment i even had the ridicilous thought that i might had to silence down a bit because i might wake up my mother. It was very clear for me that i was absolutely having a lucid dream, and there was nothing to be scared about.

But, the monsters made a move back! They told me that allthough i was dreaming, they still could hurt me in reality! That really fucked me up, because i knew what they were mentioning! They'd kill me! In my dream, but also in reality!! Man, i was scared to death! I absolutely didn't want to take the risk of finding out if the 'dying in a dream'-theory was actually true, so i was fighting these monsters as hell. It was the scariest thing that has ever happened to me, in my dreams AND in reality.

Someone else that had such an experience?! And can anybody PLEASE convince me of the wrongness of this 'dying in a dream'-stuff...?
