I went to bed about 3 hours ago without any meds. It was only 10pm which is early for me; I was thinking I might perhaps get up later tonight to be productive.
But I have been dreaming about my abusive boyfriend's brother trying to kill me. Right now I have him locked in a closet but since he is an attorney nobody in law enforcement will help me. The details are vivid but writing them would only give them more power so I won't Tell me how I can go to sleep and not dream about this. And why am I having nightmares anyway? The anniversary of boyfriend's death was Sept 19. Usually I get very stressed until that date and then I relax. But I have been having occasional nightmares in the last several weeks. I wish I had a guard dog.

Hi,
Why blame your dreams? No matter how bad a dream seems, your subconscious creates it to help you in some way. Sometimes you have to be woken from sleep, other times you have to be entertained to stay asleep. When morbid thoughts intrude into sleep your subconscious creates a strong dream to divert you from them or wake you up. If you are used to sleep medicine, when you leave off you suffer withdrawal simptoms. That needs a strong dream. If you take sleep medicine, you often need a strong dream to wake you up. Your own subconscious is omni-present and omni-scient, trust it to do the best for you! |

Hi Yoda~
I had the most worst nightmare tonight? I was running in the woods and out of nowhere. I seen these bright yellow eyes in the dark?! I was outside all alone and then a person came but? I couldn't see who it was at all. I was terrified as always? I asked the person what they were doing but they didn't respond to what. I was saying so maybe they thought hmmm!! I'll go away and come back later on?? I was so nervous because. I couldn't see the person's face at all just his body?! I thought woah OMFG! It's him that's who it was out here with me?       I just want to have a different sleep pattern again. I don't think it's way too difficult for me to ask? Grrrrrr!!!!!! I'm always hoping to though but oh well. Ugh!!!!!!
