Also, I download self-affirmation or positive-talk recordings and leave them on throughout the night, so that my mind is listening to the words even when asleep.

Thanks everyone. I have been trying meditation exercises, and relaxing music and I hope things would get better with time.
Ennie, doesn’t writing down your feelings right before bed act more like a trigger? I am a bit concerned about doing that before bed and then go to bed, I am afraid it would make it worse when I close my eyes and the nightmares would be more real!
