anxiety dream
Stressful sleeping vision
An anxiety dream is a dream dominated by feelings of worry, dread, or unease—often involving scenarios like being unprepared for an exam, arriving late, or being unable to move or speak.
Unlike nightmares, which feature explicit threats, anxiety dreams create distress through situations of helplessness or inadequacy: I had that anxiety dream about forgetting my lines again.
