Wanting to die in a dream shows the mind working through a deep need to stop a current way of living. This psychological movement occurs when the internal structures that define a person’s current reality have become too heavy or no longer serve the needs of the psyche. The dream uses this extreme imagery to rehearse the mental space required to let go of what is no longer functional.
The dream tests how the self might exist if its current shape were removed. By exploring this urge, the dreaming brain tries to find a way to end a long tension or a way of acting that can go no further. There is a risk that this impulse shows a true weariness with the present circumstances. This imagery provides a way to look at the necessity of change without the physical reality of loss. It allows for the recognition that a part of the self is ready to be left behind.

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.
