I am sorry to hear that you are having nightmares, I have PTSD, Depression, Anxiety and Insomnia. At times I have horrific nightmares and they are brutal, I wake up feeling like I never slept at all. I know medication isn't the answer for everyone but I take a sleeping aid and the nightmares have subsided, perhaps your T will talk about that in the future sessions. My T told me that the body is not in deep sleep when you are dreaming, now I take my sleeping pill and I don't dream and wake up refreshed, they take some getting used to though. Sharing your fears, and things that are making you want to curl in a ball, might help a little bit. I pray that you have a night without nightmares tonight. I hope you sleep better
