i dream about 9/11. Im in my early 20s, i was a toddler when 9/11 happened, it was the first ever thing i could recall/remember from my early years. I remember i was playing with my toys in the living room, my parents on the couch watching the beginning of the Channel 10 late news on the night of the 11th of sept, (im from down under) and then the news presenter started breaking the news to the whole of Australia of the events taking place in New York, next thing i know im looking at the North tower of the World Trade Center on fire on tv, i remember i said something whilst looking at the tv of the events unfolding and my parents acknowledging/replying to me but i cant remember what i said exactly but my parents said it was words that i was speaking. Anyways thats what i remember of my kinda of experience of 9/11 even though i didnt physically experience it. So yeah what does this have to do with me dreaming about 9/11, well yeah to put it simply i dream about 9/11, ever since the 10th anniversary in 2011 which i watched with my parents the special documentary about 9/11 shot by the Naudet brothers, the documentary that saw the events unfolding through the eyes of the FDNY firefighters in the lobby of the North tower of the WTC and so fourth, ever since then ive dreamt about 9/11, ive dreamt about it couple times a year ever since sept 11th 2011. Dreaming about 9/11 i can only say only a few of the times have scared me, scared me close to the borderline of nightmare. Dreaming about it there are always buildings involved, either it being the WTC or other types/kinds of buildings and the climax of the dream where i wake up the buildings either collapse or theres an explosion or something, now thinking about it whilst writing this, the times where the dreams scare me/become borderline nightmare, is when either im someone whose jumped off of the building or im in the building trying to get out and the building collapses with me in it, and it becomes like the scene from the movie Next with Nicolas cage where before we find out the plot twist being that pretty much the whole movie Nic was dreaming/having a premonition, the part where Nic is on the ship trying to locate the Nuclear weapons/bombs, and the bombs go off at the port and the explosion is consuming the whole port and then the explosion reaches the camera with that eerie sound and it cuts to black then Nic wakes up. Well thats what i experience in my 9/11 dreams sometimes that scare me and how i feel after. Sometimes i find myself a firefighter or a cop in these dreams or im a worker in the buildings. The most abstract i dream is that its just me at the WTC inside and outside and i find myself exploring and theres no sound and then the next thing i know im some where in the buildings and i just look up and its the collapse happening and i wake up. I guess im writing this cause ive never told anyone about these dreams ever and maybe im hoping that someone can explain why i dream about 9/11. I wont lie, as much as 9/11 is tragic and with all the sadness and evil that came from that day, its a significant historical event of the 21st century and to be honest i find it interesting, ive probably seen a majority of 9/11 documentary's and movies and read literature of peoples experiences, and maybe thats why i dream about 9/11 often but i feel like maybe theres something else thats an explanation of why i dream about it...... maybe.
