A close relative once told me that as a child from maybe age 6 to 10, each dream every night was about him dying. It was so "normal" for him that he remembered the first dream he had again at age 10 in which he didn't die. He enthusiastically told his parents in the morning: "Mom, dad, this night I didn't die in my dreams!".

I wonder how normal this is.

I don't usually remember dreaming, haven't for years, but if I do, something horrific was happening to me. I've been eaten, set on fire, covered in acid, impaled, fallen off of things, more.
