Generally, I'm a bad sleeper. Going late to sleep and sleeping superficially.

I have this problem of a repeating nightmare since 6 years now. It comes and goes according to my mood and what happened with me during the day. In the dream I'm being raped by someone that I don't see the face of. Most of the time it's horrible, sometimes I don't feel real pain and sometimes I enjoy it (which is the most confusing when I wake up). Luckily I have never been raped. I don't watch porn or confusing TV shows. This dream it's just there. Every time I seem to come out of it, it comes back again.

What I'm supposed to do? I don't understand it. I'm an anxious, worried person but not this much! When I'm awake, I'm not worried about rape.
My mom though 'likes' to tell me raping stories as long as I can remember. When I asked in the past if I can go walk the dogs her answer was not alone someone will rape you. When I said I'm going to India or Africa for a trip, first thing - someone will rape you. Going to a party - be careful, the are a lot of rapes.
It's so annoying. I get that she is worried but why to put it on me this much? And buy the way I'm always careful. I'm a grown up not living home.
Could this be it?

Also my may have been raped when you were very little, by a relative. That is why you mother is so OCD about rape. You dream could be repressed memories. Or this dream just could be anxiety imprinted on you by your mother.

I guess it's the later one. I feel it's impossible that Ive been raped in this life ( note that I believe in other life circles for the soul) but it's really annoying what my mom does ...
Thank you for your reply!
