Hi Lola,
Thankfully, I have not had many premonition dreams, and with the first 2, I had no idea they were going to materialize in my reality in some form. Now I know when I have one like that, that it means it will materialize in reality in some way. And until last summer, the dreams only were about bad things happening to me (that's how I know they came true). Last summer I had one about someone I love very much and, while even more than one life-altering, horrible thing has happened to him since then, when I think about the specific things that have happened to him, I still can't figure out their connection to the feelings and events in my dream.
Also, thankfully, I have never had a dream like the one you mentioned about your brother. I have enough trouble sleeping nights without such things. However, I have had experiences like that without being asleep and not in the form of a dream, but in the form of sudden worrying about someone. It has frequently happened with the same person I mentioned in the previous paragraph.
I think these are all awful experiences that I have not been able to find any practical use in life for and I don't understand why we/I should see these things. As I mentioned, without all of these things, I'm lucky if I can sleep at night as it is, and it is hard enough to live from one day to the next without being haunted in your sleeping and waking states by true things you can do nothing about.
In one example, on a Friday night last year, 23rd December, 2005 to be precise, I was struck with a worrying feeling about the person I mentioned. I tried to contact him and my worry grew. On Saturday, I called his best friend, who is
really really clueless and he told me he hadn't talked to my friend recently but that he was fine eariler. By Saturday night, I was so beside myself with worry, I was hyperventilating and physically ill. I feared some horrible accident had happened to my friend and began thinking he could be dead. In the end, it turned out that he had had a huge fight with his father and had run away from home and no one knew where he was. And for me, I got to spend 4 days in hell not knowing what was going on - very useful.
