I've been having this dream since my pre-teens.
I'm walking/running around as usual with no problem, then I find myself walking uphill and my legs feel numb, weak and tingly. Like if you were in the middle of a deep sleep and someone pulled you to your feet, that's how my legs feel, shaky and weak. My legs aren't injured, they just wont listen to me as if someone else is controlling them.
Anyway, I'm struggling and my legs wont let me walk. But I don't give up, I just keep pushing forward and my legs get weaker and weaker in protest, and I know I'm about to collapse any minute but I don't stop. Sometimes I'm in public, and I put up a facade that I'm fine so no one around me notices, once in a while someone will notice and it really grates on my pride because I don't want them to know, like it's something to be ashamed of. And I'm paranoid I'll fall over and wont be able to get up, or expose my weakness to the public. So I keep pushing through.
I never actually stop or fall in these dreams, nor do I reach the top...at least I don't remember reaching the top. I wake up really frustrated because in real life I would have bolted up that hill.
There's nothing physically wrong with my legs in the dream, so I feel like they're betraying me or trying to hold me back.
Sorry, I know it's a long question. I figure might as well give as much detail as I can.
Thanks!
