Trying not to sleep is not really the answer to your problem of unpleasant dreams. Dreams are the spiritual vehicle the Lord uses to correct an individual’s way of thinking. If you are constantly dreaming of all the bad stuff in your life, it is simply an indication that you have an incorrect perspective or mental attitude about certain aspects of your life in your daytime thinking. If you could interpret some of those dreams, you might find them of help. You could try posting a few of these dreams so that their message becomes clearer and helpful to you.
Remember that not everyone is afraid to sleep because of their dreams. The dreams are an individual’s responsibility since they reflect one’s daytime thinking. By allowing the dreams to show you what is wrong with your way of thinking, you would sooner be able to enjoy a good night’s sleep. Avoiding sleep is simply counterproductive. I am sure you have heard the idea of “facing one’s fears”. Use the dreams to your advantage. They are your best guide.
Hope you will soon be sleeping well.
