Vertigo
I built myself a skyscraper for the sole purpose of climbing onto the railing of my top-floor balcony one foot over the other side, and grabbing on the ledge, hugging it with both hands.
I thought to myself I will just hold on and relax for an hour and it will eventually go away. I could finally look down and feel free and steady sitting there and holding onto nothing.
Nope.
I wanted off, immediately. I seriously had to get back inside! But I found my hands stuck to the ledge, I couldn't even move them, let alone take them off and pull myself in.
After having called out for help since I got stuck there, not being able to move, walking the corridor with the security who eventually managed to pull me in, I said to the man: "Why on Earth is it so hard, it isn't like it's a closed door or a cramped room."
The man looked puzzled and replied: "You can't fall from either of those."
Then I woke up.

@gamer00,
"Then I woke up."
Ha ha actually I thought that was a real experience :D Did you take this photography?
Cheers~
I wish I'd be rich enough to build skyscrapers, but the experience itself, dream or not, is real enough. :)
Yes I had to take the photo right away, after seeing the dream and waking up.
@gamer00,
Dreams leads people to build it in reality! I wish you do too!
Cheers~
Hey, now it all makes sense ... in the course of reading I felt a little confused and at the same time with a bit of laughter for your story, those dreams happen to all of us
The man had wise words for you. Or is it that your subconscious had wise words for you.
But is falling off from something worse than doors not opening or having no space?
I would guess that since they are all phobias, they all weigh as the worst in the mind of the phobic depending on his phobia.
hahaha, now I understand that everything was a dream ... everything felt so real when it came to reading it, this kind of dreams of staying stuck to something and not being able to move are disturbing
JAJAJAJAJAJA what a bad dream. Friend Jaro, I was impressed. and the first thing I thought was. God sure his wife is going to scold him for doing that. Until it reaches the end of the reading. I could laugh a long time before writing.
You have writer's gifts. Of course that's what the reading gives ...
Thank you! I never thought I was a good writer, but maybe I sort of am, after all I've gotten some practice while writing stuff on the Internet. :)
I wonder how my wife would feel if I were to cling onto our balcony like that. ;)
JAJAJA Better not try, unless you want to be scolded. For our wives in some cases, I repeat in some cases and only in those cases, we are always like children. Hahaha
It's true that happens to me. especially when I do extreme sports that she does not like.
Nasty business that vertigo thing. I suffered it for a while as a child, then I jumped off our kitchen roof with an umbrella and realised that I could get a handle on this issue. The dreams are worse, I often just fall asleep and find myself falling from a tall building. Wonder what causes it?
Yeah, it may be that the experience itself makes you more used to the fear. But when you are asleep, you don't have the same faculties of sense (or memory) that you have when you are awake. That might lead to more scary experiences.
I hear you, falling off a building in your sleep will make you shit yourself.
They say if you fall off a building and don't wake up in your sleep that you actually die from a heart attack. You are starting to write more and that is a good thing.
I must say that while most people do wake up just before immediate death in their dream, when I was in my twenties, I had recurring dreams where I actually slept through my own varying deaths. But that was mainly because of my own depression and being tired all the time. I'm pretty glad those days are gone.
I am glad that is behind you now. That sounds terrible. depression is a serous thing and looks like it is fairly common now.
What a great dream you had, now is the time to sleep in my country and I hope not to dream about something like yours hehehehe
Happened with me many times in dream i was about to die and thankfully i woke up then.
It's the first post since I joined steemit on which I don't know what to say 😑
Though I wanna say just "Have good dream some other time."
