Why Do I Dream About Falling?
Falling dreams cluster around loss of support, status anxiety, and transitions without a safety net.
Hypnic jerk aside, dream falls often end before impact or wake you at impact. The sensation of **unsupported descent** maps to job loss fear, relationship insecurity, or identity shift.
Falling from height versus tripping on stairs differs: height suggests dramatic stakes; stairs suggest everyday missteps accumulating.
