I read your other post saying that you witnessed your friend being stabbed to death....you are reading vampire books....putting past trauma that you actually went through with a vivid imagination which is taking from the vampire books is what your subconscious is coming up with in your dreams.

If I were your parents.....I would make sure that the vampire books GO away. There are better books that are better to read & cause less trauma on the subconscious. Having been a parent myself, I don't buy the "everyone's reading (or doing it)". It doesn't matter, if something is causing you these kind of distressing dreams.....you don't need to be reading them if that's how YOU REACT. If your parents aren't responsible enough to make sure what you are reading, then maybe you need to take a little more responsibility on what you read.

Also, if your parents haven't made sure that you have had some therapy to help you handle the trauma you went through with loosing your 2 friends, then I think that would be another good place for them to start helping you.

my perants have no say on what i read. my mum reads my books after me i dont really care for vampires i read stephen king and other horror writers books that have nothing to do with vampires or i read romantic comadys. i have never used an excuse to get a book other than i have finnish my old 1. my perants dont now about my boyfriend i they dont talk about my friend cos it hurts them too.

I have a friend who watches a lot of crime dramas, and she's totally paranoid that someone is going to come kidnap her - if you expose yourself to fearful stories, you will become more fearful.

Try going a few weeks without those scary stories and see if it helps with the nightmares!

I agree. I am 46 yrs old and cannot watch movies with hooror or evil themes, I get really scared adn ahve nightmares...so I do not watch them. I know it sounds silly, but it keeps me from having nightmares. I have never seen more than about 3 mins of the freddy kruger movie, never seen chainsaw massecre or any of the others. If it is based on a true story, it is even worse. Also, rape movies trigger me hard...the only abuse movie I have been able to watch was "Enough", the abuser gets it in the end...by the victim...
Please leave the horror books aside for now and see if the nightmares fade....and gettign help, talking to someone about your frinds would be a good thing to do...
I hope you find some relief from the nightmares and get some good restful sleep...safe hugs...

I'm sorry, but responsible parents are observant of what their children are reading & how it's effecting them especially at a young age. They don't necessarily control with an iron fist, but with loving kindness & explanation, work with their children in order to give them the best possible life without nightmares & terror feelings. It's a proven fact that what we read effects our subconscious & effects our dreams. At 13 you probably haven't read up on those studies, but it's a fact that can't be denied & since your nightmares reflect exactly what you are reading & the trauma that you went through, it's obvious that it's having an effect on you that can't be denied.

Loving parents are aware of exactly what their children are doing & who they are associating with....I am very sorry that your parents aren't showing you that kind of love because it's what shows you that they really do care even though you may see it differently.

they dont talk about my friend cos it hurts them too.

It's the things that hurt the most that we need to talk about. The more we talk about it, the more we can work through the pain & be able to process the trauma that we have experienced. When we hold pain inside, it ends up just smoldering like a small fire that will end up bursting out in flames later on in life when something ends up triggering it & it ends up hurting us worse then. It would be wise for your parents to realize this & either get into therapy of some sort (even the hospice care has groups for people who have traumatically lost someone close to them) or talk with someone if you are religiously involved who can help you process the grief that you have left smoldering inside of you for these years.

please dont ever say my parents dont love me properly. you dont live with me you dont know what my family is like. I know my parents love me proprely that is why i was band from watching some movies and books its me that gets hold of them; and if my parents didn't love my properly they would let me see my druggie cousin when ever i wish and other stuff.

Glad to hear that....it's not the way it sounded in your previous post, so I am glad to hear that they do care.

Maybe you should start caring more about yourself & start following your parents direction rather than rebelling & getting hold of the things that your parents don't want you to read or see. When you do the things that cause you to have the nightmares when your parents are trying to protect you.....you need to realize that you are doing it to yourself & STOP your actions rather than trying to be a rebel then complaining about it.
