Bad dream about a family member having a medical emergency- would you call?

[HariboFrenzy]

Had a bad dream about a close family member I don't live with. It scared me enough to message them and someone they live with (although sleep in a different room to) to ask if they're ok. No reply as it's so early.

I'm resisting calling as I don't want to really piss them off for calling and waking everyone but I feel really anxious and tearful. No doubt because of the dream but what if I'm psychically aware of an emergency? (I know,I sound batshit).

Anyone had similar? Did you/would you call?

I would. Not this early though!
If only to put your mind at rest. X

I would.

When my grandfather didn't answer his phone one night, my sister wondered if he'd fallen. Turns out he had, wasn't wearing his alarm button and laid there all night. (we lived 400 miles away).

Leave until nine. Even if you're right there's not much you can do surely?

I probably would but not until a decent hour. They are absolutely fine. Your dream is not a premonition so making sure they are ok is for your peace of mind.

I would wait unti they message back or wait until a decent hour when you know they will be awake and casually call for a chat or something (then if anything is wrong in any way shape or form it gives them the opportunity to say and also gives you the opportunity to see that they are ok)

What did you say to them in the message op?

Thanks all, will wait for a reply. I just text the person I dreamt about that I love them (we say this to each other regularly,so won't seem odd) and to the person they live with just asked if everyone was ok

I get it. I've had detailed premonitions in the past that have come true.

But I also can have ridiculously vivid dreams about bad things happening to people I love - so vivid - that have not been true.

I find with these it's my own anxiety about them coming out in my dreams. Would think it's probably the same for you, especially with the news of yesterday.

As PP say, wait until maybe 9am.

The last horror dream I had was my mum having a stroke...she didn't, she was fine...and it would have panicked her if it's contacted her early.

Having said that, if you still can't shake the feeling, there's no harm in calling.

I would call
But I would wait
And I wouldn’t mention why specifically I was calling
Just call for a chat

We wandered around chasing a sheep for a bit then went on you tube and learnt how to build a bed (dd7). I don’t get it. Dd seems happy though!

Oh dear very sorry wrong thread not sure how that happened I was replying to the minecraft one.
This was the thread I read before!
I would call but a bit later on.

You've done more than enough. Don't freak them out. I would absolutely NOT want to know if someone had this sort of dream about me, so stfu.

@saraclara Just out of interest, why not? It was only a dream.

Why on earth would you call? It was only a dream!

what if I'm psychically aware of an emergency?

You're not. Any issues that did occur while you were sleeping are coincidental. You're not "psychically aware of an emergency".

I'd have to know as well op but would wait to call. I'm sure it's all ok and hopefully just unconscious worries coming out. Look after yourself.

@waitforitwaitforit if I have scary dreams like that, I don't logically think they're premonitions at all.
But to have someone try to contact me early in the morning to tell me that they've had this terrible dream and to check I'm okay, somehow would bother me. Again, I wouldn't believe it was a premonition, but having these really awful dreams oneself is bad enough..I don't want dragging into other people's.

And of course OP's friend MIGHT believe in premonitions. So why do that to her?

Call at a normal time. Bad dreams are normal - it doesn’t mean anything. Just sit with your discomfort for a short while and let the day wash your dream away and call them later. Honestly, waking them up to tell them about your dream is not something that is really about them - it’s about you. Sit on your own discomfort for an hour or two.

There is no harm in your checking discreetly - as you have already done - if you’re worried. Just to ease your mind. But really, you haven’t psychically foreseen something awful, it’s just a dream.
I hope they respond to you soon so you can relax.

@HariboFrenzy What did you do in the end? Was everything ok?
