Ever since I was about 3 I've had the same reoccurring dream, as I've got older I've had a few more dreams added onto that one - I am now 16. The one since I was 3 was that I was asleep, in bed and I heard my mum and dad screaming, I woke up to see cartoon animals - tiger, lion, giraffe, rhino - in my room. The Lion had my mum and dad on it's back and the other animals were trying to save them and me... This occurs every so often and has done for 13 years.

Another is one where I'm on an island with my mum, nanna and granddad (who has now passed away) I have no idea what island it is but you can run the width of it very quickly. I can describe in detail what happens, what there is surrounding me: there is a car garage - painted red and yellow; a supermarket; a beach; a wall, that has an opening where you can crawl into lying flat to hide and there's also platforms out in the sea where people can go to sit etc. Then there's an announcement over the tannoy that a massive ship - like a naval airship - is coming to dock on the beach and there's going to be army people shooting everyone. In this dream I'm running around, with a gun, hiding from the army people, I hide behind the wall with the opening with 5 others, and they just run straight past us. Then, we run into the supermarket and get told to hide on top of the shelves amongst all the goods, so I start to climb the shelf and then a robotic like man comes and carries me to this room with other people where we are kept hostage, but kept safe. This 'man' then starts to kiss me... After a while I escape and I meet up with my family again and we run down the road, towards the beach and we see an ally, so we go don and come to an old town... We casually walk through the crowds - which are huge - and we come out near a restaurant. My nanna wants food, but the guy doesn't speak English so won't serve us - he gets nasty to my mum. We walk off and we come to a corner, as we round the corner we see the hotel where we are staying, I'm stood shouting ''LOOK MUM, THERE'S THE HOTEL, WE'RE GOING TO BE OKAY'' and then the dream ends...

I have another, also, I can't even describe any of this one, it's as though I have the dream and then somebody wipes my memory so I can't tell anybody it. Though I can remember it involves 3 soft balls, all of different sizes, and I'm sat in my nannas conservatory and my mum keeps asking what I'm doing... I can't remember anything else.

Like I said, these have been on going reoccurring dreams for at least 6 years minimum (all together) sometimes they all happen in one night and sometimes they're spread of months of one another. I can have one dream multiple nights in a row too. Does anybody know why this happens? Is it to do with past experiences, am I scared of something? Should I talk to my doctor? I don't know, please help.
