Owen SterlingAn anxiety attack in a dream occurs when the mind encounters a sudden surge of genuine apprehension from waking life. This mechanism serves to consolidate the intensity of a perceived threat, allowing the mind to encounter the physiological and emotional weight of a fear that has not yet been fully integrated or resolved.
The dream provides a space to feel the physical impact of a fear that the mind is trying to measure. When the mind encounters this state, it is often working through the residue of a recent stressor that demands attention. The body is reacting to a tension that has carried over from the day. A calm state remains possible as the mind finishes this processing.
For its more general meaning: Dream about anxiety
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
