Why Am I Muted In My Nightmares?

Muted

Hey Andy,

Why am I muted in my nightmares?

I have nightmares often, and most of the time I am trying to beg for help or alert someone, but for one reason or another, I can’t get a proper word out. Either I had eaten something earlier in the dream and my mouth remains full of food no matter what I do, or I am constantly vomiting or drooling and can’t stop it, or my voice is just suppressed to a dull squeaking. 99% of the time when I can speak, I am ignored or betrayed by the people I was trying to get through to.

If you have any information on these types of dreams, please send me what resources you have. I know that this is most likely due to anxiety, for I have issues having even simple conversations with people in my life and it upsets me. So, if you have any resources on how to speak up better, that would be wonderful too.


Hi, I can actually totally relate. OK, now if you’re not a “religious” person, then this may sound really out there to you:

I used to sleep on my back – I rarely do anymore, and I’ll explain the reason for that: for two years, I lived and served at a church in a small town of Kentucky. Now, this little town was on a big-time spiritual front line, and I was apparently trekking over line, for literally every other night, I would get attacked in my dreams at least twice. It would often start off with me dreaming of something, then suddenly everything would get dark, or cold, or I’d suddenly be in a place with mountains and smooth ice and darkness – my dreams had turned into nightmares. And I had the same ones most often (you’d think I’d recognize this eventually, right?). And each time, as I tried to wake up, I wouldn’t be able to. And when I tried to speak, I couldn’t. One time, it was like somebody was sitting on my chest with their hands around my throat. Here’s the thing. The word that I tried to say was “Jesus!” No, seriously, and I couldn’t get His whole name out. I would say “Jheee! Jheee!” (or “in the name of Jheee!”) several times. But then, when I was finally able to sit up and say “JESUS!”, I was awake and the muting was gone.

See, people don’t like to admit it, but there are other forces in and of the world that don’t like humans, simply because we’re God’s creation, so they attack us however, and whenever they can. To those of us treading on their turf, and who have vivid dreams, they like to attack us in them.

Another thing that many people don’t realize or like to admit is that there’s power in Jesus’ name. If you don’t believe me, try saying HIS name the next time you’re muted, instead of seeking out the people who end up ignoring you in your dreams. Also, He will neither ignore you, nor ever betray you. Seriously!

Pretty out there, huh?
