Hey guys,

So I have have been having some problems lately that are sort of childish. I have always been the "every else's rock type" of person that recently has seemed to change since dealing with some major depression and it has sort of culminated up to this. Over the last week or so I have been having a very hard time getting to sleep. It's like I am regressing back to being 5 years old. I can't be in a dark room lately. I have a VERY vivid imagination and I will imagine that I'm seeing things or give a mental picture to the "bumps in the night" and the such, and to go with that I also add audible sounds to those visualizations. I know that there is nothing there, and I'm not going to say that I'm actually seeing anything either, but this lack of being able to be comfortable in my own house now is causing some big problems.

Along with these problems I have been having very vivid nightmares, I don't remember any dreams that aren't nightmares and haven't for a good while now. They are getting worse and they are waking me up and disturbing me to the point that I have been sleepwalking. There has been a previous connection with fear and sleepwalking so I assume this is why it has started up again.

To be honest I don't know why I am posting this aside from the fact that it is late and again I'm sitting in a completely lit room with the tv on because when I turn the light off I know I will be thrown into a frenzy. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Anything would be greatly appreciated.
