Is it normal to dream about dying?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, dreaming about dying is normal, and it doesn’t mean it will happen or that you secretly want it to. Stress, big changes, or a vivid imagination can all show up in intense dreams.

Dreams about dying can be frightening, but they’re a pretty ordinary kind of nightmare. Your brain may be working through stress, uncertainty, or change—or it may just be throwing together a dramatic story while you sleep. There isn’t one reliable meaning behind a particular dream.

If it was a one-off, you can usually chalk it up to a weird night and move on. If the dreams keep recurring and are disrupting your sleep or leaving you distressed during the day, talking it through with someone you trust or a professional may help.
