To have a dream where you cannot move or talk can be a dream telling you that the time has come for you to finally address a problem in your life in order to regain some control over your feelings and your emotions in regard to a situation that is escalating beyond your control and is beginning to affect your feelings, changing your life and lifestyle.
The first step in overcoming your apprehension and fear is to try very hard to look at the problem as not quite so overwhelming that you’re rendered near helpless. Educate yourself not to look at the circumstances but believe that there is always hope and a way. And by you getting more involved, you can do something to change the problem.
To dream you cannot move or talk is often the consequence of a fear or traumatic experience you suffered recently or earlier in life, even as far back as childhood. It is not uncommon to be unable to move or be speechless in a dream if in the dream the subconscious is reminded of a fear memory experience that terrified you in the past either real or as experienced in another dream. This is one of the ways the mind escapes to a silent state in order to protect the body from danger or harm within the dream, even though you feel were you only able to scream, talk or yell, you could escape the danger or bring the dream to an end.
Often people have dreams where they cannot talk or move their bodies as a result of awakening experiences they have had in the natural in the real world. These awakening experiences are generally emotionally or physically violent in nature, either audibly, physically or both. As a result, the memory of the experiences are embedded deeply in the subconscious and often reappear again and again in our dream state. I have talked to many people who suffer these kinds of dreams and from what I’ve gathered; they tell me the dream experience can be terrifying for the dreamer during the dream and upon awakening from the dream.
One of the other reasons a person is not able to talk, yell or scream in a dream results from an experience in the natural where they were embarrassed or felt they were looked down on by something they said or did. Because they may often say or do something before thinking, this event follows them into their dreams; oddly enough, this is a very common trait with people who aren’t well prepared, are uninformed, have speech impediments or stutter when nervous or agitated around certain people who normally react with emotional, angry outbursts without much provocation.
Many times, people having dreams where they’re not able to talk, yell or scream in the dream occurs because of anger being transferred over from their awakened state into their dream life because of dislike toward a person in the natural or toward a person shown in their dream or a person who is symbolic of someone in the dream. This is usually a person the dreamer dislikes or remains angry with in the natural.
Fear constantly plays an important part in these types of dreams where a person is not able to move, partially paralyzed or paralyzed in a dream and can barely move about or left to crawl in the dream and is as a result of a fear they have in their wakened state because they do not have the answer to a situation or a problem. The dreaming person does not know what to do in a particular situation resulting in an inhibiting fear of rejection moving into the dream state, either paralyzing them into non-action or rendering them barely able to crawl or shift their body.
Yet another common reason that is sometimes overlooked is when a person is not be able to talk, yell or scream in a dream can be a result of an experience event in the natural where they were actually made to feel embarrassed or condescended to for what they had said or had done in the natural and this fear memory enters into their dreams. Haven’t we all been there. We all need to learn to put perspective on unpleasant memories till they fade from memory. Okay, it happened. I’m a different person today. Consider closely that person who caused you to feel that way. Not a very nice thing was spoken, huh? Therefore, this is a memory that today has no continuing place in your thought life.
Often with people who may not be feeling entirely confident in their knowledge on a subject or who have nervous speech impediments becoming agitated around the kind of people who make others feel uncomfortable will sometimes suffer dreams where they cannot speak or have a problem talking in their dreams.
You do realize, of course, that you’ve got the stuff, the real stuff that it takes, so just keep on talking; After all, we all stutter from time to time. So what. It’s normal. You must master your life by making choices, to be calmly confident; and when those moments arise, you’ll be right in the moment, and be ready.
